This time of year puts a smile on my face because spring has officially started at my house. When I see the little seedlings growing inside my greenhouse, I don't think about how cold it is outside. <br /><br />This is the first year I'm growing tomatillos, and can't wait to make some homemade salsa. <br /><br />Thank you!Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709809754356131123.post-17373691041999121382015-02-22T11:32:57.670-06:002015-02-22T11:32:57.670-06:00Harry,

Take care of yourself, and dress warm when heading out to take care of your animals. <br />I've seen heaters for bird baths which keep the water from freezing, would something like this help for your animals?Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709809754356131123.post-79108262720341606102015-02-22T11:31:05.357-06:002015-02-22T11:31:05.357-06:00Leigh,

Even though it's cold outside, the little seedlings keep chugging along under the lamps. <br />No I can't stress too much because if I do, it will make me sick.

I got a nasty cough from going out in the mornings at two or three above zero to put boiling water in the animal troughs.

Last week I was so tempted to plant peas or something in the garden and then ice and frigid for a week!<br /><br />I don't listen to the radio much and we don't have TV, but in the car I enjoy classical music on NPR. When I catch a glimpse of the news, I notice how they keep emphasizing that the recession is over. Can't help but wonder who they are trying to convince.

This is a good thing to do any time. We never know when difficulties might happen in one form or another.<br /><br />You really have a green thumb (and fingers) going there, m'dear. That or special secret bulbs in your grow lights! Not even close to time for us way up here in northern MN to think about starting our seeds yet.

I haven't gotten ANY seeds started & don't know if I will this year. Time will tell. We are supposed to move Mama's stuff in this weekend which means I get my garage, foyer & the back of my SUV back. All are stuffed to the gills with stuff waiting to go in her new trailer.DFWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18345712839702427280noreply@blogger.com
