find the bunny...
Set the forms and poured the next "step" in the courtyard. Plucked off some mini tomatoes to go with dinner tonight. About 60 more hoping to ripen before we get a real freeze (not anytime soon). The plants are still flowering. 56,78,37,0,B
Bunny probably thinking he's beat Benita as the first "guest" in the new abode....and he's probably got his eyes on your sweet plants. very nice 'maters.
If it looks like a freeze is coming then you can pick the green ones and put them in a brown paper bag with a banana. They'll ripen pretty quick. If all else fails have a mess of fried green tomatoes.
BBC....there's a green column on the right. Toward the middle it says "Blog Archive". There are years listed (2008-2011). You can open each and within you'll find the 12 months and WITHIN THAT you'll find John's blogs. You'll be able to watch him build, garden, tend wildlife and relax with friends. You'll find links to articles written about the TFL from different publications. It's a lot of information, but it's quite interesting....of course i still get teary when Mr. Cain signs over Benita. What a lucky cow! If you have some spare time, check it out.
Hasenpfeffer?
ReplyDeleteBunny Found on the pavers. Too small for "hasenfeffer" however bunny big enough for bunny burrito.

ReplyDeleteThe Hasenpfeffer comment made me think of the importance the rabbit played to (some)of the French people during the 2nd world War.
ReplyDeleteIt took me one second to spot the bunny.
ReplyDeleteHum, a shipping container in a building, is that what you live in?
BBC, John has a custom built bungalow he lives in.
ReplyDeleteHermits and hobos live in shipping containers.

ReplyDeleteJohn, do you have a floor plan you can post for your greenhouse plans? Would love to see it!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bum, I could live in a shipping container. :-)
ReplyDeleteJohn has four. Maybe he would let you move in one of his. They probably don't get much over 120*F in the summer.
ReplyDeleteNice progress on the floor.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to be able to pick fresh vegetables for dinner!
