    Zinnias are good for late summer/early fall because they are still blooming.

    Crocheters Thread

    Welcome fellow crocheter! Are we all yarn collector-aholics? I didn’t use to be. I’ve always had a moderate stash of worsted weight acrylic yarn. I started a granny square and a multi color zig zag afghan 20 years ago to use up that stash, and for these 20 years the stash hasn’t grown. But this...

    What Mug Are You Using Today?

    Today’s repeat: And by “whole pot” I should clarify that it’s just a little 5 cup coffee maker and I only fill it to the 4 cup line. And we all know that those coffee maker producers have their own definition of “cup”. And ok now curious, so I’m measuring how much water fits in one of these...

    Buff Brahma Bantams?

    Sounds like great progress!

    Buff Brahma Bantams?

    Too funny. I’ve only ever had standard buff Brahmas, and they have often looked different from each other. So I was basing my opinion on what standard ones look like. Even though it’s too soon, I would guess that if one of them does turn out to be a boy, it will be the one with the fatter comb...

    This morning’s fall mug. I guess everything now will be repeats of last year. (And this one fits the whole pot too.)

    Buff Brahma Bantams?

    They both look like buff Brahma pullets to me, although they are a little young to sex by photos. Did you purchase pullets or straight run?

    Thoughts on crossed Spitzhauben results

    Something seems wrong here, because from that cross you should get all “spangled” offspring, and they should all have one copy of the dominant white gene. So either your Spitz stock isn’t pure, or some other birds got into your breeding situation. :idunno

    This is what I’ve got so far. As soon as they could drive with Moo Moo Cow in Mario Kart, they both wanted me to make them Moo Moo Cows. Plus my granddaughter has been waiting for Disney Princesses since April, and now she wants clothes for her Labubu. My first attempt at a dress turned out...

    My son in law had hip surgery in July, and during his recovery he learned to do amigurumi! 😍 He started with a French Bulldog, then some Minecraft thing for my grandson, and then he got this big Lord of the Rings Woobles kit that he’s going to make all of them for my daughter. I better hurry...

    What Mug Are You Using Today?

    Found these at Hobby Lobby today! September 1st. I guess it’s time to switch to fall mugs.

    Nope, no Scottie dog, but my older son’s name is Scott! (That might be when I started collecting Scottie dog things. I always liked anything Scottish though because my grandfather was Scottish.)

    What Mug Are You Using Today?

    I just saw one of those at my local Goodwill yesterday! In Indiana! So today is National Thrift Store Day. Unfortunately it falls on a Sunday, which means other than Goodwill, most of the thrift stores are closed. I decided to celebrate NTSD by going on a journey to a few Goodwill locations in...

    Using Shredded Paper for Coop Litter - As Good As Wood Chips?

    Thank you for this post! I bought the power cutter from Menards based on your recommendation but I have not gotten it out of the package yet. Today when I read that you used your utility knife, it reminded me that I had been using my utility knife to cut some cardboard for lining my canning...

    Wild Emus at The Lilly Pilly Tree

    This caused me to ponder a couple of things. If doing a second clutch were a possible thing, then would the male have to go off and track down his mate from wherever she may have disappeared to? It seems that since she just ups and offs after the eggs are laid, she really has no concern about...

    Crocheters Thread

    I need to edit this part- I’m sitting here working on an axolotl for my grandson and I realized that I only do the yarn under when I poke the crochet hook into a stitch and pull up a loop. That is the “yarn under” loop. But then when I finish the single crochet, I go back to the normal yarn...

    Don’t sell yourself short! Your potato isn’t too rough looking. I’m sure your next amigurumi project will be smoother and if you keep going, before you know it you will be great at it. After all, amigurumi is almost all single crochet stitches and therefore not too hard to get them uniform...

    What Mug Are You Using Today?

    Today’s goodwill find. I don’t know that I’m all that fabulous, but I do think the mug is! I think the pretty swirling on the inside was the clincher. I haven’t had breakfast yet, so I will use my new mug when I eat “brunch” in a few minutes here.
