Free chickens in Maui. Kinda pretty too. hehe. Probably full of fleas.

Purdy beach somewhere on the NW corner of Maui.
Warmmmmmmm.

I hear the chickens are skinny and taste a bit wild. Locals don't bother to eat them.
They are all over the place, in parks, road side stalls...some have very pretty colours adn the numbers are close to 1000!

Those look like tomatillos to me.

Well, spoke too soon on the tomatillo thing. Should read all posts first.

I plant beets as soon as it warms a little in the spring. Hope to be able to get them in around March. Then every 2-3 weeks after that. I think you missed the window for fall beets for storage. They should have been in around the end of July. You may be able to get some decent size and eat as you pull them if you planted some asap but they won't be sized up for storage. Things I plant every week are arugula, cilantro, spinach, lettuce, radishes, asian greens. Most of these I sell so I plant enough each week that will sell each week. Some things that you cut as baby for a baby greens salad mix you can get 2 cuttings out of if it's not too hot. Some will bolt the very next week after it is ready, like spinach, arugula and cilantro. You still have time to plant all the above mentioned and possibly purple top turnips and kohlrabi. The majority of fall crops need to be planted in July.

[T Hi]

Spent the day yesterday trying to recoup from the fried onion rings that I ate on Wednesday! I love them but boy oh boy my guts do not!!!! Feeling a bit better today.

Poor Daffy, I think she slept all day with me yesterday! She was wore out from the road trip too!!

Have my 4 year old nephew staying with me today & tomorrow. He is being such a good helper! He sprayed out both duck boxes with the hose for me!

Ok. I'll be back later. I think we might go to the drive in movies tonight! He wants to see the Captain America movie!

Hey everyone.....my platelets are back to 122,000, I am supposed to go home tomorrow--but it will depend on my labs. I did get to take a shower today! Audrey is doing well. She lost some weight but is eating, sleeping, screaming, burping and pooping/peeing as she should.
