Growing asparagus in with perennials
Comments (11)My rhubarb is a division from our former neighbor and landlord at a previous home. It is far less tart and so needs much less sugar than many types, but I don't know what variety it is. I usually make strawberry rhubarb pie or sometimes crisp which is the same as the pie, but without a bottom crust and in a larger dish. I haven't found that the leaves look unattractive until they die in the fall when it gets below freezing, at which point they go into the compost heap along with a bunch of other stuff. Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie In a small bowl mix: 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup flour 1/2 tsp cinnamon (depending on the size of the pie, this will not all be used.) In the bottom of a 9â deep dish pie crust sprinkle: 1/2 Tbsp uncooked tapioca Layer in alternating layers: sliced rhubarb strawberry slices Every two layers lightly sprinkle fruit with the cinnamon-sugar-flour mixture. Repeat until pie is about full. Topping: In another dish mix: 1/4 cup each butter and safflower oil 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup flour 1 cup quick cook (not instant) oatmeal 1/2 tsp cinnamon a teaspoon or so of water This will cover two pies when spread thinly over the top....See Morerecap of where we are upstate
Comments (62)Hi Everyone, I am really new to GW, just today. I live in Altona, up near the Canadian Border. Just retired in April and have a lot a time to spend on my gardens. I wish we had a place to have a swap around here it would be great. Most of my perennials came from my niece in Syracuse, when I started gardening I went to her house and got some cuttings from her. Now my plants are so hugh I have to transplant and have given a lot of them away. Since I retired I put in a new raised bed of shrubs and I love it, already have plans for a another new shaded garden next year. I am getting rid of my last annual garden, planted some perennials in it this week and added some bulbs, now I will only add some annuals for color. Saves a lot of money. If anyone in area would like to swap just contact me. Terry...See MoreFavorite Spring Recipes
Comments (12)Anything with radishes screams spring to me! good white bread (baguette or chiabatta or even thinner sliced italian), buttered, a little salt and radish slices! Asparagus in any preparation. I love it roasted but my favorite is blanched with a poached egg on top (with or without hollandaise depending on how tired I am). This makes a perfect weeknight dinner. Dill is the other super spring/summer ingredient for me. Simple salad of finely shredded romaine (kind like you would shred cabbage for slaw). Thin cucumber slices and heaps of chopped dill. Toss in good olive oil, squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt if you're feeling spunky! This is a spring/summer favorite....See MoreDoes anyone have an asparagus soup recipe
Comments (34)Yeah, I took tumeric in pretty high levels trying to alleviate an inflammatory skin condition. It didn't work. I decided that just using it as a seasoning was probably good enough and a whole lot less money . . . Hubs always says that nothing works on me, but most herbal supplements don't. Which is kind of a shame because I love plants and I love using plant products, but so far, herbalism has been mostly a bust for me. At least for anything major. Ginger good for tummy and chamomile and mint relaxing, etc. but nothing has worked for the more chronic and serious conditions. But I don't consider herbal medicines totally benign or devoid of dosage concerns. That goes for vitamins too, they can cause a lot of toxicity if you aren't taking dosage into consideration. Vitamin A is one of the best known culprits. You can also pee away a lot of money that way too . . ....See Morel pinkmountain
