Container Gardening

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (56959) • Canada 19 Jul

I have taken on the challenge of container gardening a few years ago. It is a challenge because when you have alot of space, it is easier to grow things, allow them to sprawl out, but with containers, everything is in a tighter...

rebelann1949 I would imagine you'd have to allow at least one tomato to ripen all the way then fall into the dirt as the seeds are inside. I've never tried to grow my own tomatoes but maybe I can give it a try this coming january.

Roll up sandwiches

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (170179) • United States 25 Jan 07

Lots of people are using tortillas or flat breads to make "sandwiches" so that they are not taking in so many carbs. I learned to do it as part of a product promotion in a store. I like to take a large tortilla, place lettuce...

rebelann1949 Now that sounds like a really good idea. I've been told I'm prediabetic so I will have to buy tortillas rather than bread from now on ....... I'm learning how to diet, never did that before but at 200lbs it's about time I did.

rebelann1949 The last 2 nights have been strange for this time of year in my desert, we got a really good thunder storm with lots of rain both nights. I think we might get more tonight. I'm not complaining, the more it rains the lower my water bill will be.

Food waste must be comminuted - say what???

Judy Evans @JudyEv (385109) • Rockingham, Australia 18 Jul

The photo is another from the training sailing ship Leeuwin which is docked in Fremantle Harbour in Western Australia. In the kitchen was a notice regarding the disposal of various waste materials. The rules apply only when the...

rebelann1949 Never heard of it before, thanks for the new entry to my 'vocabulary' ...... I hope I remember it. I can't imagine what difference that would make, waste onland is eaten by worms etc so why do they care if it's dumped close to land?

Humans.

Judy Story @jstory07 (149005) • Roseburg, Oregon 17 Jul

There are lots of creatures that have lived on Earth a lot longer than we have the humans. Did they destroy the Earth like we have been doing. No they have not. Modern humans which is us have been on Earth for 300,000 years....

Free veterinary care in Luxor, Egypt

Judy Evans @JudyEv (385109) • Rockingham, Australia 16 Jul

Occasionally in discussions I’ve mentioned ACE (Animal Care in Egypt). ACE was started by two English women who were visiting Luxor and found the conditions of working animals very confronting. Julie Wartenberg and her niece,...

rebelann1949 I pray ACE gets donations for their worthy efforts, care like that is very expensive but also needed in areas where people have no real funds to pay for the care of their beasts of burden.

rebelann1949 My apologies for the stupid US news station, it's a shame the media is not monitored properly to prevent insulting or false information. I miss the days of journalists like Walter Cronkite whose only mission was to report the news, not to get ratings.

Judy Evans @JudyEv (385109) • Rockingham, Australia 15 Jul
