    Peas from seeds are popping up from the soil. Mrs S got some herbs going but we're still preparing our raised beds; adding compost and a bit of garden soil to top them off. More seeds and seedling planting will begin in a few weeks.

    Over the last two years I have acquired lots of canning lids and extra cases of canning jars. I’ haven’t used these extra jars yet, but they are on my shelf just-in-case I need to preserve extra food. I always over plant and give away excess. Depending on circumstances, that may need to change.

    Worst part is cleaning the used jars. When weather breaks get a big plastic tote and soak the jars in hot soapy bleach, hose them out and dry. Good you got lids, there was a run on those with the Kung Flu BS 2020-2021.

    Mods, I forgot there was already a 2023 gardening thread, want to merge this one?

    Us too. I’ve feed a lot of relatives with free vegetables.
    I take some of my friends at work corn and peas. It’s like Christmas to them.
    Hopefully I can continue doing it

    IMG lost

    Anyway our garden is done . The Mrs.'s future daughter in law cleaned out the garden , then sold them off on Fakebook since we have no room or time to can this time.

    While they were there the Popo showed up about a stolen 95 Mousetang Covertibile.

    Grimey always leaves his doors unlocked, and keys in the stang with an open garage door

    We've been gone 3 weeks now and people know about it because he moans about us at the Post. where folks mostly hate him.

    We watched the place for him. I wonder what else is missing? The Michigan car was never driven in the winter and only had the clearcoat peeling.

    He's famous for not having insurance and the other helper fell off his porch Tuesday bruising her kidney and spraining her back and can't toilet her patients now.

    He has no insurance on that property either

    The car was either taken for a prank, or is already in pieces at the chop shop down the street.

    A tip from a former renter about a former renter said Ashley Culp showed up in a Red Convertible knocking on his window.He did not know it was stolen but knew then car. Lots of camera's and chop shops there. At Competitive Build Teardown Wednesday's at Chrysler Highland Park, a 1990 mustang is torn down in less than 30 minutes.

    She's the one that hit my Trailblazer.

    The Mrs sold 6 bushels of Roma's for $50 so we didn't have to can because of space.

    There is till a bushel or two left yet
