  1. I like my fingers! I looked at both links. Some interesting bugs to say the least but none like this one. If I saw anything that looked like a couple of those I'd probbably move
  2. Dodge I'll give you directions to my house. You can pet the ugly thing lol i didn't know there were so many green catapllars until I did a search. My husband wasn't impressed when it bit him!
  3. For some reason the pic didn't come through. It' a big,about the size of your pointer finger, fat green hairy catapillar.fw
  4. Found this hanging from a False Indigo plant. It bites or stings.
  5. Anyone know if tame black raspberries and red raspberries will produce all summer?
  6. If I remember right, the trees at sheetz are a cherry tree of some kind
  7. Check for a recall on the washer. I had a Neptune that had to have the gasket replaced. They did it for free using a repairman from the area
  8. I found this pic of a candy stripe iris. Not as impessive as the bud
  9. I had a Maytag Neptune, there was actually a recall for replacing the rubber section around it. It didn't matter if I left the door open or not it reeked. They repaired it for free.
  10. I imagine you could use just the yolks and use the whites for a pie. Don't know how it work though. Hope they turn out for ya. Happy Thanksgiving
  11. I don't have exact measurements but I usually take 4 or 5 eggs and beat them up. Then I add enough flour to make a sticky dough. Then I dump flour on the cutting board and put the dough in the center and work in enough flour to be able to roll them out. You don't want too much or they fall apart in the broth but if you don't get enough they stick to your rolling pin. I always put alot under them and then shake them off when I put them in the broth. I use a pizza cutter to cut them. Some people add a little baking powder to them too. Not an exact science. Hope it helps Or...you can cheat and buy a couple bags of Klioski (sp) noodles.they are pretty good but you'll have to thicken them if you want a thick broth on them
  12. Mine was always "weeps" until my mother in law told me to use whole milk instead of 2%. so much for lower fat content in the pie. I tried it and they were firmer. also if you add more eggs that helps too. Also if you're using frozen berries be sure to let them drain good so the juice doesn't thin the custard. This is the one I use. You can cover the edges of the crust so they don't get too brown. Just uncover them before it's done baking if you want them a little browner. EASY CUSTARD PIE 4 eggs 1/4-1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 tsp. vanilla (optional) 1 1/2 cups milk Nutmeg Cinnamon Pastry pie shell Blueberries Beat eggs slightly, add sugar, salt and milk. Gently stir in berries.Pour in unbaked crust. Sprinkle with nutmeg and cinnamon and bake in a preheated oven for about 350
  13. Do Alyssum need a winter cover or are they annuals?
  14. Is it suppose to be in chinese/japanese? That's what I got when I clicked on the link
  15. First the groundhogs got their cut ( and then some) of the cabbage. My beans are spotty as are the peas. We have the carrots and beets in a raised bed and they seem ok. The corn is maybe hip tall and in tassle with tiny ears. We haven't fertilized for a couple years so I know it's time just want to find out what I need. Thanks for the suggestions.
  16. Thanks I'lll have to get a kit for next year. Our garden isn't doing very well this year
  17. I want to get my garden dirt tested to see what I will need for next years garden. Is there a kit you can buy to do it yourself or is there a place close by that does the test for you?? Thanks
  18. We tried the ashes and they didn't work. We wet the plants first so the ashes would stick. and my rhubarb is really strange this year. I baked a strawberry / rhubarb pie or I thought I did. Really nice brown crust but when you sliced into it the rhubarb hadn't even cooked. It was hot but gooey. I had a blueberry pie do that once too.
  19. I have about two dozen cabbage plants that have small holes in the leaves. Can I put lime on the plants like I do the potatoes to keep the bugs away?
  20. Thanks Lavender. How do you know how much and what kind of fertilizer you need? My tomatoes have been crappy for the last two years. We've had blossom rot both years.
  21. I need some tips on getting the garden ready. Any takers?
  22. From what we found, it looks like a Canada lily. We found it while looking for another flower. Relieved to know that the foxglove that is growing in the flower bed isn't an endangered one.
