I'm at loose ends now that the weather is so bad here in Washington. It's dark and soggy and what my mom used to call nasty weather. I'm trying to like it but I miss the summer smells of the fields…Continue

Happy Spring and Happy Gardening and Farming One and All

Thank goodness that spring is here. Its so easy to feel happy in the spring when the weather turns and we can get out into our spring gardens and start planting. This year I vow to do better than last year. You may recall I had some problems with yield :-(. I know my kitchen garden plot at home much better now that I gardened it one season and have learned that my soil is high in Nitrogen so I have to deal wth that for the low nitrogen loving vegies. I've also learned the importance of soil…See More

Garden Clean-up Day in Washington

Posted on October 31, 2009 at 2:30pm 0 Comments

It's Halloween and it's garden clean up day. I love Saturdays. This is the one day that I save for taking care of my home and garden. I don't actually "work" on Saturdays. We have a light drizzle here in Enumclaw today and its warm. It's nice and I'm just in from cleaning up my garden. Tomato plants and Shasta Daisies are out and composting. Sunflowers are cut for the chickens and I'm making a dent in that pile of junk that I pulled out of the shed when we made the stall for Abby.

Small Tomatillo and Tomato Crop This Year

Posted on October 21, 2009 at 3:00pm 0 Comments

Well, it was my first year to grow tomatillos. I had three plants develop out of the 60 I was hoping for. Prolonged rains this Spring didn't help and as I've mentioned before, the dirt at my new home needed amending (so I learned.) My Tomatillo plants produced 5 cups of chopped fruit, some of the darn things no bigger than a quarter. They were really good though. Last night I made these jars of salsa and a pot of fresh tomato soup from my tiny (but delicious) tomato crop (same… Continue

We are safe in Pakistan with our family. Whole Pakistan is not danger but a few people are not want peace in country. But all are peaceful.
Terrorist are in end corner border of country. You are watching on media that Pakistan is danger country in the world but we are living here. We know that what is happening here. We are happy here. Government is taking action against terrorist. Thus Government has been successful. Now it is end of terrorist.Mashooq
