Just want to go easy on my eyes with this thread.

And "SHE" is not one you'll likely ever have to worry about in here or elsewhere......

Nix the bamboo now, while you have the chance. It's pretty, and it grows/spreads quickly, so it makes a "good" screen ... at first. But ... it's rapidly invasive, choking out native species, and is a virtual food desert for everything except pandas. So ... unless you plan to raise pandas, you may want to start with ripping that nasty stuff out!

That’s not running bamboo, that’s clumping bamboo. That type will only spread out to a certain diameter (depending on the type) then stop. Usually about 8 feet. It’s great for sound and visual barriers.

This made me very, VERY sad ...
I am a die-hard maple syrup fanatic. My best friend's husband is from a Vermont maple-syrup farming & production family. every year, for Christmas and birthday, I got a big jug of their best ... and I was in Heaven! Now that Grampy is gone, there's bad blood in the family and my buddy's connection is cut ... hopefully just temporarily, but I'm hoarding my last jug and bottle, just in case.

That’s so sad

Way up yonder, past the caution light, at the little store with an old Coke sign -- ask Ms. Belle for some of her sweet tea, you have to do that -- then a left will take you to the interstate, but a right will bring you back to BYC.

When I had just started driving "solo," I dropped my brother off at his GF's house and followed her Dad's directions to get back out to the main road. When someone says "Go right down here and make a left, the follow it out a couple of miles and you'll hit the highway ("highway" being the local term for a true two-lane road!) To me, "right down here" translated to "at the next stop sign" not "all the way at the end of this road." So I made my left and settled down for the long drive through through the woods to the "highway."


I ran out of road before I ran out of directions.


I ended up in ditch in a cow pasture - occupied, of course, I took out a fence, an empty gas can, my confidence and a harmless black snake who never knew what hit him. The next day, my little brother hung a score card and pencil from my rearview mirror. On it was a list of about twenty "targets," complete with associated points for each. Fence, Gas Can, and Snake were neatly checked off. I had already earned 17 points! I saved that for a long time. I sure wish I still had it, but the story remains. My Lil Bro will NEVER let me live that one down!

...until the bear decides your screaming causes him a headache and ...just knocks you out.

Yes, he can go back out, and no, you don't need to vaccinate.
The entire flock will get it either from shed scabs or mosquitos. I don't seek it out ("pox parties") but I'm also not surprised when it crops up in new birds.

So much for selling my single comb roo next week! I'll have to let her know that he's had it, and let her decide if she still wants him. I hope so, 'cause he's a REALLY nice Nankin. He took Best Bantam at our county fair, last year. The judge said he only stopped there because she couldn't get him to pose for her - he was too busy looking for treats in her fingers!

That's very honest of you.

Another F word - Frittata (mini frittatas, to be exact)
I made these for breakfast. Male roommate won't eat anything remotely nutritious, so that's an extra one each for me and the female roommate.
