DH isn't very fond of casseroles but may try that one again. <br /><br />I am thinking of taking all my old flower seeds, mixing them together and broadcasting them in the corner by the lilac bush-some old mulch in there- and see what comes up. Will be a surprise for sure!!<br /><br />Candy onions sound good as I like a really good sweet onion. <br /><br />Love your bird photos-all are great shots-you must have a pretty good camera. <br /><br />Enjoy the nice weather.Bev J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18075881108883630511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-70838139471178679122011-02-15T11:25:23.320-06:002011-02-15T11:25:23.320-06:00I buy one jar of Original Orville Redenbacher'...I buy one jar of Original Orville Redenbacher's pop corn and plant a handful of it and eat the rest. It's an f 2 hybrid and comes pretty true form the first year. Have to buy a new jar every year. I've been raising it for 20 years.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08046007711708902767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-73456833732126694452011-02-15T06:34:39.691-06:002011-02-15T06:34:39.691-06:00I just saw the first sprouts from my onions and la...I just saw the first sprouts from my onions and lavender that I started from seed and today we started our sweet potatoes...good luck with finding a bale of seed starter!City Sisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11474047622089407153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-79168954297464762011-02-15T06:32:26.217-06:002011-02-15T06:32:26.217-06:00I've never heard of candy onions.

I'm gonna look them up and see if they're recommended for zone 5.<br /><br />I learned so many things in Home Ec. class that I still use today. Now schools don't have Home Ec. or Shop class. <br /><br />When I have old seed I put a couple in a damp paper towel in a warm place and see if they will sprout. I've had some surprises.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13687590785527530194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-72449727078200680282011-02-15T06:21:22.774-06:002011-02-15T06:21:22.774-06:00Jesse had "Family Living" class.

They learned about all the parts of a sewing machine and made aprons and pillows. But I think they cooked quite a bit. Cooking was popular with the boys since they love to eat. <br /><br />I've ordered my onions too. Love those candy onions. Don't care much for the red Candy though. They're not as big. Never tried the Superstar. <br /><br />Don't write off that old seed if it's something you're going to reorder! I'm always surprised how long seed stays viable. But I'm going through my seed stash, too, and wintersowing all the old seed. If it doesn't come up, then at least it had one last chance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-91179411798558074842011-02-15T06:07:43.213-06:002011-02-15T06:07:43.213-06:00Your bit about the hamburger pie brought back a lo...Your bit about the hamburger pie brought back a lot of Home Ec memories. I wonder if they even have classes like that anymore? I learned so many useful things. <br /><br />Have you ever posted a pic of that seed starting setup you have? 12 flats...sounds really good. It must be tall?<br /><br />Down to 19 last night - but it going up to 50 this week. It's going to get pretty messy when all this melts....Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-14823998178649486602011-02-15T05:41:22.859-06:002011-02-15T05:41:22.859-06:00Glenda, when you get up at 3am, do you stay awake ...Glenda, when you get up at 3am, do you stay awake all day?
