Front Porch Chit Chat

Yep! Feeling ok!
You feel like a teenager again????

Oh yeah!!

Well I have my new "Toof". It's still sensitive from them prepping the tooth under the crown. I hope it will be better by dinner, I've got corn beef, potatoes asparagus, carrots and an onion in the pressure cooker for dinner. I'm hoping it turns out as well and the pressure cooked vegetables did last time and it's my first try cooking a meat in the pressure cooker as I just got it for Christmas.

Hey LOOK they got my face palm smiley now!

And one for Fort? LOL

You can thank @phideaux for it and @Angie for adding it!

 

[Double R]

Ok y’all! Back to work. Y’all behave while I’m gone!

Nope! That's no fun!

 

[Terri9630]

Whew! That’s good!

Definitely! He's been known to take a chicken so I was concerned about the goats. Maybe a momma gave him a lesson about "playing" with the kids.

Well, the corned beef tasted just as good as when I cook it in a crock pot but I didn't think it was as tender even after cooking for 30 min out of the water and then cooking it anther 20 min in the water. Potatoes and veggies were fine and done in 30 min.

 

[Double R]

Nope! That's no fun!

Not in the mud and rain. You are correct! Lol

Here's Dr. Buildit! (@buildit )

The mud and rain is lots of fun when its hot outside!

 

[Double R]

It’s wet, I’m cold and hopefully done outside for the night.
Good evening everyone!

 

[gumpy]

Howdy Ms. Erica. What's harder to get off your boots, manure or mud?

 

[Double R]

Mud for sure!

 

[Double R]

Last night at home for Big Blue 1.

 

[havasu]

[Double R]

Thanks Havasu. We thought so. She looks better in the dark these days.
Hopefully I’ll be posting a brand new shiny one tomorrow.

@Double R and @gumpy we are currently amending two of our gardens beds with 3 cubic metres of cow manure, so we are well and truly in the do do now . Can tell you that manure comes off easily by stomping our boots on the bottom step of the veranda and then bang them together over the veranda rail to get rid of the rest before you come inside . Oh we are happy .

@Terri9630 not to tease you or anything but the weather here is and currently 32 oc or 89.6 F , sending all of you in the States occasional gusts of warmth so you don't get cabin fever there with all of the snow.

 

[gumpy]

Yaaaaaaah! You finally got the replacement tractor!

That’s awesome!
We compost it here but I do see my aunt in law out in the field looking for dry pies to use for her stuff.
It’s fantastic stuff!

@Double R we buy it from a livestock transport company for $20 for the 3 cubic metres and they load it in our trailer too. It is washed and sits in a pile for a while until they sell it so kind of composted anyway and yes you are right it is great for the vegetable gardens. Our soil eats manure here so we have to regularly amend them.

 

[Double R]

Good luck!

Thank you! Clearly we need it!

Every spring I always helped my gramps muck out his stalls in the barn. We would put it on his garden and plow it under. He had a fantastic garden.

 

[Double R]

We put the sheep and rabbit poop in the garden in the off season. Till it in every year.
We compost the corral poop until it’s dirt and use it to fill in low spots etc. Sometimes add it to the garden.

No snow here. Just cold wind.
