Busy Weekend, Snowy Weekend, What are you doing?
Comments (7)Busy weekend. I got my posts set for the rails for my movable buildings, both buildings! I still need to set the posts for the 2nd position, but I have until early April to get that done! I can now go ahead and start building up on all hoop structures. I am going to finish bending the hoops on Tuesday or Thursday. Meanwhile, I will work on side walls, replacing hoops with metal ones and repair endwalls. I did get 228 tomatoes started and about the same amount of broccoli. I need to start some early peppers, but I ran out of time. I will work on that this week. We missed the snow. Most went east of here. We probably have around an inch. I am SO HAPPY! Probably will be all gone by mid week. Marla: I always feel better after getting outside when I feel an illness coming on. Brook: That is some record. As a teacher, too many of my kids share their illnesses. We have had a really sick year at school. Surprisingly, not too bad at our house.

Comments (32)I'm back! I wanted to get back to you about my trip, especially because all of you were so nice to help. I am sorry to say, that time went by so quick, we didn't get to do all we wanted to do. Friday night went to Mr. Chow's-and then to The Polo Lounge, which was being renovated, so another club was set up in the hotel. It was much too crowded, got one drink and back to our hotel. Saturday went to Rodeo Drive and to eat pizza at a place on Melrose called Mozza's, I think. It was VERY good! We had a couple of drinks at the Beverly Wilshire, L.A. Reid was at the next table. Then went back to hotel to get ready for the Clive Davis Grammy Party, which was being held at our hotel, so we wanted to see all the celebriites go in and out. Saw so many, and to name a few: Joan and Melissa Rivers, Joan Collins, Gayle King, Hoda Kotbe (sp?), Kelsey Grammer (and his new young wife)-sorry, he just grosses me out, Magic Johnson, Brandy, P Diddy, Miley Cyrus, Melanie Griffith, Yolanda (RHBH) and David Foster, Sting and wife, Trudy, Tyra Banks, and so many more. A lot of them were young artists, and I didn't even know who they were until someone mentioned it. It was fun! I cannot believe how skinny the women are! Have to be a size 0, not to mention tall and long legs, so they really are thin-too thin, IMO. Sunday, went to brunch at the Four Seasons, and to dinner at Mastro's then on to the Justin Timberlake concert. It was suppose to start at 9p and it didn't start until 11:30, which I thought was ridiculous! I truly would have left if my friend wasn't so inlove with him! Got home so late and was tired and left the next day! I am sorry we didn't make it to The Stinking Rose! Someone on the plane said they smelled like garlic all weekend after eating there, so we were a little afraid to go there and then to the events we were going to attend. But, would have loved to have gone there. Oh, somewhere in there we did go to the Farmers Market for awhile. We had already had brunch so wasn't hungry. I had never been to the Walk of Fame, so we went there for a little while one day. Marlene, so glad you mentioned for us to stay at the Beverly Hilton instead of the Roosevelt! We did walk through the Roosevelt, very dark place. We went to have a drink and appetizer at Sur, but, they were filming, so never even got in the door. Had fun and was exhausted, and my feet have been tortured walking in heels all night-how do people do that??? Glad to be back home!...See MoreCrazy weather weekend this past weekend (4/24-4/26)
Comments (3)I have a bone dry bed full of tepary beans that has been planted for two full month without one sign of life. I hear that in the wild they sit and wait for the summer rains, but that cold rain two days ago dampened the dust about six inches down. I wonder if that will kick them into life, if it's not enough, or if they've been quietly eaten by now by little beasts of various sorts. Experimenting, just experimenting......See MoreWhat Are You Planning or Hoping to Fix For The Weekend?
Comments (38)It was Rosh HaShanah and I was too busy cooking to reply to this thread earlier. My vegetarian son's family came up for a holiday dinner Saturday night. I made a Moroccan butternut squash soup, carrot salad, beet salad, cucumber and tomato salad, an apple and raisin noodle kugel, a Sephardic leek, zucchini and potato casserole (kind of like a crustless quiche). My husband made round braided challahs - I think the braided ones taste better than the spiral ones. Dessert was carrot cake and mini-honey cakes. With all the prep for Saturday night, we wanted something simple but still holiday for Friday night so I made stake, roasted potato and sweet potato "fries," and steamed fioretto cauliflower. We had some of the mini-honey cakes for dessert. The mini-honey cakes were a new recipe. Honey cake is traditional for the holiday, but I don't like the slightly burnt taste most honey cakes have. These were more of a cake-y cookie/biscuit which is soaked in a spiced honey syrup after baking - very good. The spiced honey was so good (cinnamon, vanilla and lemon juice and zest), that I also made some extra to use with our challah and apples instead of plain honey....See Morerob333 (zone 7b)
