      It’s so strange. Aaron loves it. I want to try it lots of ways from fish and chicken to salad dressing. Let me know other ways to use it.

    Just watched today’s video. Loved it. I have to wait about 10-14 days to visit our community farmer’s market, Wayne and I tested positive this morning. He is getting along at about 85% speed and my speed has ground to a halt! But when we get back out in the world, we live near several clusters of Old Amish families/farms. They have always had lovely produce. I thank you for the support of the small American farmers. My dad was one and thankfully he had a trade that paid for our farming. How I wish he could call me and ask I stop over and put in my fall meat order! The very best!!
    Also, I have yet to make Cowboy Candy. Can’t wait to follow you on that adventure!
    You and your messages have been my sunshine these past days of illness and gloom. Hugs and blessings. 🤧💤❤️

    My daughter has two large dogs and they shed a lot…..she has one and runs it everyday before dinner because the fur flies around and the dogs hang out in the open kitchen …..works well if there is a large area…my house is too small but I love my rechargeable broom sweeper for quick tidy ups…..also my rechargeable battery hand vac. Crumbs, some flour dust, small pieces of this and that and I can sweep them up quickly.
    I don’t know is you have seen anyone mentioning tomato and potato shortages but what I paid last week for 10 lbs is now $2 more…
    There are no farm stands out this year as they have been previous years…😕 sad

    I have the Shark vacume and love it! It runs and I'm free to do other things. I am a supporter of the Farmer's Market as well, the difference in freshness is everything! I am a huge tea drinker so anxious to hear your critique on the teas.

      We just made them from pipe parts at the home depot. The only thing I did was paint them black.
      Just know the length you want and build the brackets however you like (Aaron snd I did it in the isle) paint them any color you want. Not cheap in comparison to like the brackets they have pre built but they will hold way more weight.

I understand what you're saying about the supporting of the local farmers, but I will say I can't empathize/understand at all the lure of a $10 coffee. Nor a $5 one. It's 2 cups a day for hubby and me from our trusty coffee maker, using cheap coffee.
