Escaped, mostly intact, from a den of Chickens Of Doom.
| sculpin Whew. I'm done with my fake patient gig until August and ready to sleep in a while. |
|
| sculpin Huh. May well have found a local sustainability-type group that isn't full of it: Sustainable NE Seattle's urban farming group. |
|
| sculpin About ready to give up on Boing Boing *and* Making Light. Sheesh. |
|
| sculpin Dreamed that "coward" referred to people who wore magic amulets to protect themselves from cows. (Which, admittedly, could be a problem.) |
|
| sculpin My a-ha! moment: old-fashioned straight clothespins are ideal for pegging down the edges of bird netting. |
|
| sculpin Going off caffeine. I halved my coffee consumption this week and it's not so pleasant. |
|
| sculpin @rjl20 Well, it's better than our previous plan, which was downtown. Still wish we'd gotten the Honey Bear stuff. |
|
| sculpin I've got a nearby source of espresso grounds now. Excellent! High N, low C -- good compost. In fall, I'll try growing oyster mushrooms. |
|
| sculpin @arjache I'll have to give that a try. Thanks! |
|
| sculpin @arjache Barley sweet tea? I'd like to know more! |
|
| sculpin The chickens love carrot greens. I think the Delaware may know how to lie. |
|
| sculpin Informing the Delaware that chickens who launch themselves at my face become stew. |
|
| sculpin Flicker flicker... This'd be a bad time for the power to go out. Though I guess we could always put a hot water bottle in for the chickens. |
|
| sculpin Screwing up my first temari just putting the marker threads in. This instructional book stinks. Thank goodness for web tutorials. |
|
| sculpin Back from farmers' market, having carefully carried home a tiny tea seedling in an oyster bucket on our little red tandem. |
|
| sculpin Perhaps I will not take that bicycle excursion today after all. On the other hand, at least I don't have to water the garden. |
|
| sculpin Transplanted onions and lettuce. Wow, the chard has gotten huge. Chicks still adorable -- they're little feathery balls of mischief now. |
|
| sculpin Thinking good thoughts about the Seattle Free School. For one thing, I bet it'll never put me through a 2-hr meeting about vision&values. |
|
| sculpin Concerned that the Welsummer may be a rooster. Oh crud. Smartest, sweetest-tempered chick of the lot, too. |
