Continuing on our walking tour of the website's little face lift...that we began two nights ago... where we went over the hill and through the woods to Grandma's House, and learned how to ask Grandma P. about cool things... we're heading back over to my house... and we're walking and we're walking...
(That's apparently how they…
Aren't these fantastic??? Look at all the guys with ties on! Quite a difference in the way they hunted then and the way they are outfitted today, wouldn't you say? One of my favorite readers sent these to me and I had to share them with ya. Here are a few, you can see the…
A reader sent these to me and they made me grin. Old photos are such a treat to look at.
Don't you wonder what life was like for the lady in the puffy sleeves holding the shotgun? Or how about the boys?
If you happen to know where these photos came from or where they were taken,…
Do you have a sink full of dirty dishes right now?
I do.
Whenever I think about my dirty dishes and resist, I dig deep and channel all the ladies that used to do them way back when, without a peep.

We all love Grandma P. Who doesn't…

Then again it got pretty rowdy.…
I like soft foods. It will serve me well if I have no teeth one day. I like to make my own soft foods whenever possible, the skills will be useful if I'm living off the grid somewhere and I'm toothless.
Or if I'm just living off the grid.
Or just living toothless.
I made homemade cheese the…
This is as close as you'll ever get to a guinea hen. Unless you chase them and get lucky when they run into a corner. One day soon I'll get a telephoto lens so you can see how strange their faces are. I think they are where the term "strange birds" comes from.
They have featherless…
I like all things pickled. Pickled peppers, pickled ramps, pickled... things.
Sorry. I'm not feeling very eloquent today. I just read a lot of legal jargon and it fried my brain and my eyes are blurry. I can barely see this screen. I'm waiting for things to return to normal... which isn't necessarily eloquent either, but…
