A pantry challenge basically means to go through your cupboards, refrigerator, and freezer, do a good clean out of anything that may not be usable anymore, and take inventory of everything else. Then, you make a meal plan based on that inventory. The goal is to buy as little as possible besides perishables during the course [...]

I never really got “nesty” with my last pregnancy. I wanted to nest, but between the constant nausea in the first and second trimester, and the horrible heart burn (I feel so sorry for anyone who gets heart burn regularly, I sometimes think that was worse than the puking) and achiness in the third trimester, it [...] I’ve been a bit neglectful of my blog recently. Once again, I have lots to say and no time to say it in. It always seems to be the way. For today, here’s my Snapshot Sunday from yesterday. Potatoes from the garden. I’d almost given up on getting any potatoes this year. I misread how to grow [...] I’m both disappointed and very pleased with my garden. The back part, where the carrots, beets, onion, etc. were, sprouted a lot of sprouts very early, and then they just stopped growing. And then I found cat poo and there are paw prints from something digging. I’ve given up on anything growing there until I can [...] My very first homegrown food ever! My family had a garden growing up, but this is different. We did all the work ourselves. It’s such a small thing in the scheme of things, but hopefully the start of something much bigger. Meredith and I shared the strawberry, and it was delicious. We bought some strawberries from [...] My garden is coming along well for the most part, though I’ve had a few casualties. My dog ripped out one of my bleeding heart plants. I ended up transplanting our hydrangea where it used to be as I’ve read hydrangeas don’t like full sun anyway and it gives me more room for veggies. Last night [...] I’m a day late, but at least I’m actually getting this up this week! I’ve been busy again and haven’t had a lot of time for posts. I’m going to be really busy this whole week and then we’re leaving Friday for Calgary. If I have a chance, I’m going to try and get a few [...] All right, so I finally got some pictures I promised of how my garden is coming along, and even got them uploaded. I debated whether to repost pictures from last year, or just link to the posts. I decided I’d like to see the before and after pictures together, so I’m reposting the pictures. This could [...] I thought I’d posted this last year but I searched and can’t find it. Whether I did or not though, it’s worth posting again. This family really inspired me last year when I was feeling a bit down about how tiny my yard is and whether I’d ever be able to grow anything in the terrible [...] We had a really busy weekend this week. Saturday morning we went back out to look at that property I posted about last week that we thought we might love. First we decided to stop by another, similar property just to get a comparison in our minds. We weren’t expecting much from the first property, but [...] |
