    Seeing this reference to dog kennel panels has reinspired me. I saw a dog kennel at Lowe's out of nice painted welded wire. It also has the 6 by 10 foot footprint that is modifiable. My only concern is that it isn't really sealed tight. Should I be worried about mice getting in and...

    To clarify: I made the deviled eggs. Ghislaine made the mayo. (yolks, mustard, vinegar, oil, salt pepper.) The recipe was in this month's issue of BON APPETIT. http://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2012/02/bacon-deviled-eggs I only used scallions as garnish. I added garlic and onion powder...

    My wife, Ghislaine, made the bread. She's getting serious about her baking business. (And, I think her homemade mayo is what helped us win the deviled egg contest.) Great seeing everyone! Michael

    San Diego Chicken meetup and Chat thread

    For the fifth time in the last couple of weeks, I woke up to chickens wandering around the yard. The escape hatch: a torn/chewed out section of chicken wire. The upside is that the instigator seems to be after food, not meat. The downside is the coops are becoming Frankensteinesque patches of...

    Anyone order Welsummers from Estes and/or Whitmore Farms?

    How are the Ameracauna eggs? Are they really "sky blue" and as big as other eggs?
