The fountain is working
After many many years I am back to using dish clothes. I want to cut back on paper use so I found someone that is making old fashioned dish clothes and I am going to try to use far less paper towels by revisiting my childhood.
HOW COOL ARE THESE???? My son gave me these for my birthday. A local artist buys old sterling silver spoons and turns them into these skull spoons.
Help! If I don't eat the chives they might eat me! Does anyone have any ideas about how to use up a lot of chives? Like LOTS of chives. I made this potato salad which uses quite a bit but not nearly enough. This salad is made with just potatoes and hard boiled eggs, a bit of mayo and sour cream, s&p and chives. i did not put in the usual things like onions and celery because i wanted the pure chive flavor to come through. After sitting in the frig overnight i achieved the taste i was hoping for. It tastes like spring.
This bed was covered with snow in a recent post. Today it will be 90 degrees here. Go figure!
My future garden being hardened off. My loofahs are in here and have sprouted.
A last look at the phlox on bloom just before sunrise.

I ses you have changed the text in (what's the word : banderolle ? heading ? title square ?) and added "casting a few spells". Frankly I was suspecting (hoping !) you might have such interests. I'm not quite free to pursue those interests (in the physical way, for the moment) but my mind is all in.
The chives might do a good pesto ? You could keep it like that all year and taste the spring even in winter. Or I freeze them on a cookie plate, all chopped, and put them in the freezer in a jar for further use.
I have stopped buying paper towels and other form of disposable paper items for some time now. I have no use for female hygene diposables anymore (not age, just hormones gone awry), but if it were the case I would use those cool new napkins for women. I eventually want to get rid of toilet paper but the man is not ready. lol lol
Wrapping is also a major issue for us : plastic wrap, aluminium foil and paper are replaced by recycled bottles. They go well in the freezer, but you have to check for water expansion.
But our most important improvement is : don't recycle, JUST don't buy disposables !!
Have a nice WARM day ! Lucie
I'm still using my old Tupperwares... As they don't produce new waste, I'm still ok with them. But it's true I'd like something else. How were they doing in the old times ? News paper ? With time, we'll find our own ways.
Great the coming out ! hihi
Have a great weekend.
