My Beans Popped!....by Jessica

Well, that title just sounds wrong, doesn't it?? Much excitement in the Bode house when we came back from a long weekend to find the beans were popping up!!!!



There are also squash and tomato blossoms!!!



Beans must like a lot of sun as the front edge of the garden bed has popped, but the beans near the fence haven't. I'm just a regular ole Farmers Almanac now, aren't I?

Off topic: while leaving our camping trip in Oregon we saw a sign for fresh eggs - $2 a dozen. WOW, eh??? Fresh eggs around here go for anywhere from $5-$7 a dozen. How much are fresh eggs where you are?

The post man gets them for $2 a dozen and I get them from him for $2.50. BUT one of my chickens is laying eggs now, altho one teeny tiny egg, isn't going to feed this whole family, maybe buying eggs for awhile....

I pay $3 a dozen to my neighbor. He wanted $2 when they were pretty little but I told him I'd pay $3 to stay on his priority list. I noticed that the CSA box I get is offering farm fresh eggs for $7 a dozen. Yikes! By the way, organic free range eggs you can get at the grocery store or costco just isn't the same.

Yes Justine I agree Costco organic is NOTHING like farm fresh eggs! I've got to seek out a better priced dozen though. I'm paying $5.
