Heard that happens with hectic dating
Hard work makes you tired but makes you feel good at the same time, yes? Reading your 10.10.10 comment reminds me you were looking for a better price...saw it at Walmart yesterday for $9.92 for 40lbs.I was on my feet for 8 hours today, most of that planting. Last five hours was pushing a Earthway seeder up and down those rows. And then raking them all by hand since the seeder didn't get the seeds low enough consistently; I'd find the seed on top. In this soft soil, some you can just push in with your finger but I wound up doing quite a bit of raking today. Got all the non GMO corn planted. Still have two pounds of corn to go, maybe do that next week. They predict a pretty severe thunderstorm here tomorrow afternoon and I have visions of all my corn washing away so glad I took the time to get some extra soil on top. Unlike my beets and carrots which totally washed away three weeks ago. I reordered a few more packages of beets and carrots, but not as much as before. When I plant them I guess I'll have to put straw down on top for the first week.
Chatted with head of Food Bank, made an appt to go see them tomorrow along with my three one gallons ziploc bags of pak choy.
Carnage in the garden.
It's going to be brutal, off go their heads. And everything else too!
I probably have about 150-175 of the pak choy and an unimpressive 49 traditional cabbages.
I planted another tray of "fancy beans" today and cheated with a few tomato plants from the feed store.
Normally I don't grow cherry tomatoes but they had a dark variety I wanted to try. Most of the tomatoes I'm growing, or attempting to grow,
are the darker varieties.
Also flung 400 pounds of triple 10 on the corn fields and my neighbor's personal garden area, which I had already tilled.
Then had to clean and air blast dry the flinger.
no wonder I'm tired... time for a nap before dinner.
I remember when Yankee Candle opened a store in Williamsburg...went inside and saw they had a room where they made real snow fall from the ceiling.

Dinner is mostly used in the South of this country for the evening meal. There they call their mid-day meal "lunch".
Those names may be recognised by the rest of us, however people raised in the North have different names for our meals. Our "dinner" is eaten mid-day and our evening meal is called "tea" (regardless of what you drink). A meal or snack eaten late in the evening is a supper.
Both North & South agree that the first meal of the day is called breakfast and few things are tastier (or artery clogging ?) than a "Full English Breakfast".

. Then a bike ride in the wind, and some consulting at work, then take doggie ( dog sitting for stepdaughter) for walk, he ran almost the entire way (unusual for him typically just run after squirels and other "vermin").
. When I lived and spent time in SE Asia, most of the hotels in Singapore, S. Korea etc., most of the better Hotels served same. Yumm!
Had a few english breakfasts myself, yummm.I lived in London and Aberdeen, Scotland, in the 1970’s, making oil and gas great, and spent lots of time in the UK since then, on business and pleasure. Full English Breakfasts are hard to beat. Eggs over easy, bacon, sausages, beans, mushrooms, orange juice, coffee.. When I lived and spent time in SE Asia, most of the hotels in Singapore, S. Korea etc., most of the better Hotels served same. Yumm!
Sorry Don!
Memories!
