IT'S GARDENING TIME!

Oh, it is my favorite time of year. After spending the winter dreaming of the awesome things to grow in the garden and then to finally get to do it!!!!!!!!

I just placed an order with Bakers Creek. Visit them here. The seed selection is awesome. I can't wait to get my seeds in the mail and start planting.

I am really hoping to get my daughter excited about gardening. She is 10 years old. So far she wants to grow peanuts and purple hull pink eye peas. The purple hull peas are her favorite. Last summer I bought a bushel and we canned them. One bushel was not enough.

Now I have visions of have a gorgeous voluptuous vegetable garden just like this one on Better Home & Gardens website:
I know I have my hopes up way to high, but a person can dream. 

Last November I planted some cold crops and added a hoop house to the raised beds. All was doing well! Was almost time to harvest when my doberman ate/destroyed all of it! Nothing like coming home from work and pulling into the driveway and seeing a doberman with cabbage leaves sticking out both sides of mouth ( I know the visual is funny, but not at the time). So now, back to square one. Next I will post the start of my garden. SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!

Slow Cooker Taco Chili

My church had a Chili Cook Off last night to kick off this year’s family night. It was a runner up for most popular vote. I would have won if Zoey wouldn’t have mysteriously come up with 3 extra votes when it came to announce the winner. Ha Ha! All the chili was very yummy last night and I had to taste all 8 entries. Needless to say, I was soooo uncomfortable afterwards. It was fun! All my co-workers appreciated it too as I took what was left over to feed them the next day. I put together all the ingredients the night before and put it in the crock pot over night. In the morning before leaving to work I took it out of the fridge and put the crock pot on low for the day. Super easy and it is nice to get home from work to already have supper done. Slow Cooker Taco Chili Ingredients 1 pound ground beef (or ground venison) 1 pound bulk pork sausage 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes 1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn with red and green bell peppers ...
