oh how pretty! When we lived in Chicago I planted a wisteria - never did see it bloom.

It is raining here now which conveniently gets me out of cleaning the coop today - we did deep litter method and hoo boy howdy there's a lot to shovel, lol. My hens are laying a dozen a day. I've offered to neighbors but not much interest (eggs are cheap in the store although mine are FREE to neighbors). The last time I offered free eggs online the woman who took them (she said her kids were hungry) turned around and sold them..... Sighing!
So I'm thinking deviled eggs, angel food cake, omelets for dinner......what else?

Waiting to plant the garden - our frost date is 5/15 but I've learned to wait a few more days and avoid the bad weather that immediately follows the date - every year without fail. I've got plants and starts littering the laundry room this week.

We're still planning to put the homestead up for sale - can't seem to move forward on it though - one tiny step at a time I guess.
