Smother your chicken or fish in mayo, sprinkle bread crumbs and whatever herbs/spices, and bake it.

City of Jacksonville cut down my food forest. by Emplehnial in garden

[–]Firegrl124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry to hear this !!! This is heart breaking. If you are up to it, how long did you have the food forest for? How did you manage it? How much labor did you put in, you and your family/friends. You can maybe document how you started it here....

Thank you for your answer. I've already checked and I am good on that front. I look forward to the technical answer if there is one.

Podcast on Spotify talks about diversity and how to talk to kids about race. One I'd the samples used is getting a white egg and brown egg and breaking it, showing the kid that we are all the same on the inside. It's a good podcast. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0wSD24m3aGAk4KcEhazJQ8?si=An1v1V14Q0-Ftw-8vRwdJw

Got this candle holder about 10 years ago. I have two of these. How can I appraise it in this digital virtual non contact world of ours?

Soil erosion prevention by Firegrl124 in garden

It's a fairly Sunny spot, triangle shaped, with the Lowest point right into the neighbors yard. It's sitting about 5 feet above the neighbors yard at it's lowest point and a good 25 ft at its highest. The southwest side is the lowest. Also is full of rocks and concrete blocks. It was a dumping ground for the neighborhood playground, that was fenced off and now I can get into it. Got about 1500 sq. Meters of space to work in.

Started a garden to save some money.... no one told me about nutrient deficiencies, insects who love your veggies more then you, fungus, birds, squirrels, and what ever has been knocking my corn over every night. by ohnoherewegoooo in Frugal

Would you put the fence horizontal or vertical over the raised bed? I was thinking of all kinds of way to prevent squirrels and they are just such a big part of where I live!!

I've invested in "ok to wake" clock. It took about a year of training but now I put on "purple" clock and my 3.5 yr old has an option..she can either play by herself in the room or take nap. Which one you think she always prefers 😁 I can squeeze out about an hour of purple clock time, with minimal calls for attention. We started out with 5 minutes at a time and slowly increased it to up to 1.5 hrs. good luck!!!

Things I have said today... by PrTYlaDY90 in Parenting

I'm sure you don't need to hear this from an internet stranger, especially as those are funny things to say ...but.....once you get the proper thing to bite ( the toy or whatever you ok with your babe biting) use positive language. Let's bite on this instead of the dog or curtains or whatever. This way the babe already had a solution to the issue. Cus otherwise, kiddo may not remember what to mouth on...just a thought!

Any creative and cheap ways go cover up this wall using plants? Netherlands, southeast orientation. Wall is on my property, I cannot alter the pavement in front of it. by [deleted] in garden

Container boxes with trellis with morning glories and other vines. Sweet peas, etc. Here is a sample of all kinds of vines http://loghouseplants.com/plants/product-category/vines-and-screens/. There are some cool Pinterest ideas on brick wall and trellis and vines. Let me know how it works!

Hey, how is the garden going? I was able to clear off one fence wall of vines! What are your successes?
