Welcome, Justin Smith, Student Ministry Director

Did you have a positive influence in your life as a teenager? Perhaps someone came into your life at a crucial time and made an investment in you, the dividends of which you still feel today. At Access we talk a lot about all the ways God uses these kinds of pivotal relationships to help us on our faith journey. It’s hard to think of a a more critical time for this than middle and high school, when the pressures are strong and the choices made can have far-reaching consequences.

Justin Smith knows the pressures students face. And because of the people who invested in him as a teenager, he knows the difference it makes when someone takes a vested interest in helping a teenager navigate the tough choices. Justin is passionate about connecting students to God and community and equipping them to make wise choices. We’re excited to have Justin join our Access staff as Student Ministry Director. He’s working hard to to continue creating an environment where students feel connected, safe, and encouraged in their developing faith journey.

Justin and his wife, Jasmine, began attending Access three years ago and quickly connected with a Community Group. Family Ministry at Access was an ongoing topic of conversation for the group members, as many of them were actively involved in serving there. Justin wanted to take the next step in his faith journey and decided this meant serving on a team. Family Ministry seemed a natural place to make a difference. Justin became a small-group leader for elementary boys in UpStreet, and when his students moved up to middle school, Justin moved with them into Student Ministry. Jasmine joined him in leading there and became a small-group leader for middle-school girls.

Since they first came to Access three years ago, the Smith family has grown to include Isla Mae (2) and Malachi (8 mos). In the midst of their busy lives, Justin and Jasmine continue to live out their passion and commitment to invest in students and see their faith grow.

Two things become quickly evident when you see Justin interacting with students: he is earnest about helping them learn to make wise choices, and he knows how to have fun. Justin’s ability to put teenagers at ease as well as challenge them toward wisdom is asset Justin leverages toward one ultimate purpose: “It’s about the opportunity to lead students to the most crucial relationship they will form, a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.”

Justin sees the big picture when it comes to working with students. He knows that the direction taken and the choices made now will impact the rest of their lives and the lives of others they influence. “From a practical perspective, one day the students we serve will be our co-workers, neighbors, and friends,” he said. “It’s important they reference Christ in the way they behave and interact with other people.”

Being a positive influence on others is an integral part of the mission of Student Ministry at Access. Teenagers, just like adults, are looking to be a part of something bigger than themselves. What could be bigger, or more exciting, than being a vital part of what God is doing in the world? This is the vision Justin and the Student Ministry leaders want their students to catch as they live it out themselves. As students learn what wisdom looks like in everyday choices and feel connected and challenged, they change their worlds.

“My vision is for Access Student Ministry to be a welcoming environment where students want to invite their friends,” Justin said. Having fun every Sunday and at outside events is a part of that, but small-group connection is the heart of it all, where students find a safe place to belong as they navigate the pressures of life as a teenager. “Ultimately I want students to know they are part of a community wherever they go in life and that God has given them the ability to be a positive influence on their community in some capacity.”

If you are interested in being a part of what God is doing in the lives of Access students, Justin would love to talk to you!

Remembering My Son...

February 10th. A date on which I remind people just how precious life can be and how quickly it can be taken from us.

Thirteen years ago today my son was a passenger in the back seat of a car being driven by his best friend. Christopher was asleep, laying down in the back seat, as his friend drove a girl home from the party they had been attending. It was late; he was tired.

On a somewhat rural road in Midwest City, Oklahoma, another vehicle approached from the other direction. That driver made a left turn in front of Christopher's vehicle and they hit the right rear quarter panel it with the right front fender of their car. The car that carried my son spun around a couple of times before coming to a rest on the left shoulder of the road. The driver and the young lady in the passenger seat were shaken but not seriously injured. They turned to the back seat. Christopher was not there.

Sadly, tragically, he wasn't wearing a seat belt while laying down. The centrifugal force from the spinning vehicle threw his body out the back window. His brain died instantly when his head hit the road, the two arteries that feed blood to the brain severed by the impact. He survived the trip to the hospital thanks to a couple of well trained paramedics and he was placed on a ventilator. But testing throughout the day proved that his brain was gone. He would never survive without the ventilator.

I made the trip from Miami to Oklahoma City after his mom called me and gave me the news. It was the most difficult trip I have ever made. When I arrived at the ER there was a large group of family and friends gathered in the waiting room. Christopher wasn't there at the time. They had taken him to do one final test - the one that would show whether or not there was any blood at all reaching his brain. It took about half an hour for him to return. In the meantime, at the request of his mother, I signed organ donation paperwork because the doctor had already basically told us he wasn't expected to survive.

Do you have any idea what it's like to sign organ donation paperwork on your 17 year old son? Some of you may know. If so, you have my deepest and sincere condolences and empathy.

Christopher arrived back in the ER and his mother took me to see him. I can't describe the pain of those moments - seeing him lying there attached to the various life supporting tubes, unconscious, never to gain consciousness again. We talked to him - I let him know I was there - but he wasn't there and I already knew it.

The doctor came in and confirmed our worse fears. He said the test showed that both arteries had been severed on impact and that Christopher's brain had died within minutes of the accident. "He never knew what happened. If he was asleep I doubt he had a chance to even wake up before he hit the street. And that blow would have rendered him unconscious. He didn't suffer, if that helps at all."

It helped but it didn't help.

I tell this story once again, as I do every February 10th, not to gain attention or sympathy but to remind all of you that in an instant your life can be changed and someone you love can be taken from you without warning. I give you the same advice I give every year.

Hug your children today and tell them you love them. Hug your parents today and tell them you love them. If it's not possible to do it in person, give them a call and let them know. If that's not possible either (as is common these days) then ask God to let them know how you feel.

Life is precious and fragile. The lives of those we love are irreplaceable and can disappear in the blink of an eye. Never, ever let someone in your life wonder how you feel about them. If they're important to you, tell them so. You never know when that one time might be your last opportunity.

The memories I have of my son are wonderful and happy and I think of him every day. And while the pain will never completely disappear, it is bearable these days and the hard times are few and far between compared to the happiness I get from thinking of him. But how much better life would be if he was here. Think about that next time you look at your kid(s).

I love you, Christopher. You are never completely gone as you live on in my heart. And you always will.

God bless you all.

  1. As I read this again, I am again taking your advice and thanking God for the blessings of life that I have all around me. Thank-you for the reminder, always well heeded! My thoughts and prayers are with you on this day of remembering, my friend.

  2. Thank you LT. What a wonderful way to express such pain. I'm thinking of you and praying for peace and comfort.

The Debt

Debt Could Soar Much Higher Than White House Claims, Budget Group Warns

Leah Millis

The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget predicted Thursday that an independent analysis of the president’s budget “will show much higher deficits and debt as a percent of Gross Domestic Product” than the White House estimates.

The Congressional Budget Office produces its own estimate of the president’s budget, typically about a month after the White House publishes its proposal. CRFB says it expects the congressional budget scorekeeper’s analysis will use more realistic economic assumptions than the White House’s rosy projection for average growth of 3 percent a year over the next decade. “More realistic economic projections both reduce projected GDP in 2028 by 11 percent, which raises debt as a percent of GDP by 8 percentage points, and reduce revenue enough to raise debt another 10 percentage points,” the group says.

CRFB adds that CBO will also factor in the budget deal that Congress recently passed, which calls for hundreds of billions of dollars in increased spending over two years, and make other adjustments. All together, CBO’s accounting could end up showing debt climbing to 93 percent of GDP by 2028, or 20 percentage points higher than the White House budget forecasts.

CRFB adds that, if nearly $1 trillion worth of unspecified spending cuts over the next decade fail to materialize as anticipated in the budget, the debt-to-GDP level could reach 96 percent. “Either of these numbers would be an improvement on our estimate of current law, which has debt reaching 101 percent of GDP by 2028, but they would still leave debt on a sharp upward path,” CRFB says.

We should add one caveat here: These are only projections of what CBO’s numbers might look like, and those CBO numbers will themselves be estimates about a White House budget that will never be adopted as a whole. But the bottom line remains that we’re likely looking at lots more red ink ahead, and the administration’s forecasts will probably be deemed unrealistically optimistic by impartial analysts.

Networks are a graphical portrayal of the activities and events of a project. They show how each activity relates to others in the project, the sequence of activities, and the need to perform some tasks before others. Networks also facilitate the determination of the impact of early or late starts or finishes, provide information about the allocation of resources, and allow managers to do “what if” analyses. With this information, managers may view the status of the plan, analyze progress, and evaluate alternatives.

Network Diagram

Figure: Network Diagram

The following conditions must exist to develop a Network Diagram:[1]

  • All program activities must be clearly defined, including identifiable start and completion points.
  • A logic diagram showing the sequence and interrelationships of activities must be developed.
  • The time to complete each activity must be estimated as accurately as possible.

A number of tools and techniques are useful in developing a network and logic diagram that reflect the desired activity sequencing. They include various network scheduling techniques that can be used to include: [1]

Accomplishing these things may require considerable effort and the involvement of people familiar with the overall project and those responsible for executing various groups of activities. This up-front effort provides an understanding of project requirements and early identification of potential problem areas. The eventual network diagram is usually developed into a Gantt Chart.

Passive Income: How to Make Money Online using Evergreen Content

Even though I’m only 20, I’ve spent the past 7 years learning, testing, and failing many times in my search on how to make money online. In January 2017, I earned over $15,000 from many online sources.

I’ve read over 100 books in the past year on marketing, home business, passive income, affiliate marketing, and tons of other monetizing methods.

7 September 2009

Although it's public holiday in Selangor, it is work as usual in KL and many other states in Malaysia. I don't want to bore you with the details of my suffering at home alone with the kids. Let's just say that I barely got an hour of rest at home today.
The highlight of the day is when I found out my 1.5 years old girl got chicken pox. We thought it was just a regular rash or something but the doctor confirmed it is the dreaded chicken pox. Obviously we can't send her to the nursery anymore so somebody has to take care of her from tomorrow onwards. I wish I could offer myself for that but unfortunately I'm overwhelmed with work at the moment.

As of now, Mia started to have boils all over her body and she started to scratch here and there. Her brother Adam only had smallpox before once so there's a chance of him catching the disease also if we're not careful. You be strong now Mia.

When I was a young university student in 1981, Helen Caldicott’s film If you Love This Planet played in one of the lecture theatres and on a gloriously sunny spring afternoon I went to see it. If for some reason (like perhaps you are visiting from another planet) you’ve never heard about this film and Dr. Caldicott’s work, it is about the threat of nuclear war – of what will happen to the planet if nuclear weapons are deployed intentionally or accidentally, as well as the risks of uranium mining.

I came out of the documentary in a state of shock, fearful that a nuclear explosion was likely at any second. Even the brightness of the sun seemed threatening. The intense fear and anxiety lasted for months. I remember going to sleep being thankful that we’d got through another day and wondering if I’d see tomorrow. Eventually the raw fear did leave but still sometimes it amazes me that we have actually managed to avoid dropping a nuclear weapon in all these years since — and there have been several accidental close calls.

When my friend asked me to go and see Rob Stewart’s new movie Revolution with her I wasn’t very enthusiastic about it because I remembered that trauma from If You Love This Planet, but she said she’d heard it was an uplifting message. Yes, you must see this film too. The main message of the movie is that our oceans are dying, or rather phytoplankton are, and they are responsible for producing at least half of the oxygen we breathe. We have about 20 years in which to avoid catastrophe for life on earth.

“Every second breath we take comes from the ocean.”

Well, I guess the good news is that I didn’t feel traumatized and paralyzed after watching this documentary. The world has changed since my university days. For one thing through social media and this blog I can process and share my feelings. We have a voice now.

Biologists believe the earth in the process of the sixth mass extinction. Think about that for a moment – only 20 years left!  Will we continue much as we are today until a fateful day 20 years from now when it all collapses? Somehow I don’t think so.

One of my first thoughts after coming out of the film is that people are going to need some way to process this, to deal with the stress and anxiety because if we have any chance of turning this around, life as we know it will have to drastically change. Scientists are saying we need to stop burning fossil fuels. It isn’t as if there is an unlimited supply of fossil fuel left anyway: many scientists say the depletion is already in sight. Yet we continue ‘business as usual.’ What can we do, as individuals, that will make our voices heard? Stewart says: “don’t buy anything.”

 Distrust any enterprise that requires new clothes.

~ Henry David Thoreau.

Which is exactly what I said to my friend as we walked home after watching Revolution. To me that means contentment with what I have and making do, buying used goods, looking after things and when I do make a new purchase,  chose better quality goods that will last. What I do for leisure must change: less travel for one thing. I’m not pretending this will be easy, and I applaud those who are already there. I know I have some inner work to do and habits to break.

And at the same time, if we all stop consuming – or even if we as a society drastically cut down – people will become displaced in their jobs – and not only in the manufacturing industry. Our revolution has to expand to figure out alternate ways of surviving. We need to start thinking now about what is really important. As I see it we need visionaries, healers, inventors, movers and shakers, teachers, poets, artists, writers, musicians, growers, and fixers. Green spaces, beauty and sacred space are important, but we really don’t need more shopping malls.

My greatest hope is that as a society we will look beyond our own survival. You and I will live and die no matter what happens, but how each of us decides to live with whatever time is left to us will make a difference. Like planting a tree, we don’t do it for ourselves but for the next generation and if I can do something today that will mean my young nephews have a future, it will be worth it.

  1. Health and Disability. From physical problems to mental health and dementia-related problems, Aging Life Care™ Managers interact with the health care system effectively and frequently. Aging Life Care Professionals attend doctor appointments and facilitate communication between doctor, client, and family. These professionals help determine types of services – including home health and hospice – that are right for a client and assist in engaging and monitoring those services.
  2. Financial. Services may include reviewing or overseeing bill paying or consulting with a client’s accountant or Power of Attorney. Aging Life Care Professionals provide information on Federal and state entitlements, connecting families to local programs when appropriate.

  3. Housing. Aging Life Care Professionals help families and clients evaluate and select appropriate level of housing or residential options.
  4. Families. Aging Life Care Professionals help families adjust, cope and problem-solve around long-distance and in-home caregiving, addressing care concerns, internal conflicts and differences of opinion about long-term care planning.
  5. Local Resources. Aging Life Care Professionals know the local resources in their communities like the back of their hands and know how services are accessed.
  6. Advocacy. Aging Life Care Professionals are strong and effective advocates for clients and their families, promoting the client’s wishes with health care and other providers, ensuring that client’s needs are being adequately addressed.
  7. Legal. Aging Life Care Professionals refer to legal experts, like elder law attorneys, estate planners, and Powers of Attorney. Some Aging Life Care Professionals provide expert opinion for courts in determining level of care and establishing client needs.
  8. Crisis Intervention. Aging Life Care Professionals offer crisis intervention when it is needed, helping clients navigate through emergency departments and hospitalizations, rehabilitation stays, and ensuring that adequate care is available to the client. For families that live at a distance, this can be a much-needed 24/7 emergency contact.

A care plan tailored for each individual’s circumstances is prepared after a comprehensive assessment. The plan may be modified, in consultation with client and family, as circumstances change.

The Aging Life Care Professional assists clients in attaining their maximum functional potential.  The individual’s independence is encouraged, while safety and security concerns are also addressed.

Will This Work?

Last summer I experimented by growing half of our potatoes under mulch and half hilled-up with dirt in the old traditional way. Those grown under mulch produced exactly half the amount as those grown in dirt.

For some reason, my husband didn't want me to grow any under mulch this year. Heck, why does he have to be so sensible? Where's his sense of adventure?

Actually, I kinda sort agreed with him. It's just that I hate hilling up potatoes.

But I went ahead and planted our 80 feet of taters the old-fashioned way; in four rows, hilled-up with dirt. I've hilled them up three times now, and that's all I'm gonna do. (How's that for showing a real streak of independence?)

Still, I wanted to try growing some under mulch.

This then, dear readers, is my interpretation of growing potatoes under mulch in a wire cage, or in tires stacked on top of each other, or in a barrel. It's a three foot tall cold frame that we originally built as an experiment last year . . . one that didn't work, but we won't go into that just now.

I planted 21 seed potatoes in a 4' x 8' raised bed and then set this cold frame on top without a cover on it. As soon as the potato plants started emerging from the soil, I tossed in some mulch.

I've already added three layers of mulch, but I'm having trouble keeping those plants that grow right up against the side of the cold frame covered. I don't know why, but they pop right up and out almost as soon as I finish covering them with mulch. Oh, well. Maybe they'll still grow good potatoes underneath.

As the greenery grows, I'll keep tossing in more mulch until it reaches the top of the cold frame . . . if the plants grow that high.

Is this gonna work? Obviously, the sides of the enclosure are made of greenhouse plastic which lets the sun's rays in. But when you grow potatoes under mulch in a wire cage, the sun gets in there, too, right?

It's definitely an experiment and time will tell if it's going to produce an acceptable harvest. In the meantime, it's 21 potato plants that I don't have to hill-up with dirt!

Not Easy, Not Fun

The latest step on the pantry construction was to do the preliminary work on getting the doorway cut from what will be the kitchen into the pantry.

The first part of this was to remove the siding from that area. (The pantry is added on to what was once an outside wall of the house.)

Our house is sided in fiber cement board which is NOT easy to work with. It didn't go up easily, and it sure didn't come off easily. We used this particular type of siding because it's fire-proof . . . but definitely not hard labor-proof!

Hubby first cut the shape of the door through the siding with a circular saw equipped with a special blade.

Cutting through this stuff makes a tremendous amount of dust and grit, and smells bad to boot.

Then getting the siding off the wall proved to be an arduous task accompanied by lots of vocal mumblings and grumblings.

I think I see real possibilities for the beginning of a Halloween costume here.

Finally done and area vacuumed and vacuumed and vacuumed to remove all of the dust and debris.

Next the window gets popped out (oh, if it would only go that easily) and inserted in the outer pantry wall.

Merry Christmas?

At holiday time, I've always given away baked goods as gifts. But for the past couple/few years, it's become a little bit more of a chore to do all the baking than something I look forward to doing.

I love making jam. Don't know why, I just find it a very satisfying and enjoyable project. So this summer season, when our berries are prolific, I'm going to make up extra jars of jam to give at Christmas time rather than doing so much holiday baking.

This is the haul from yesterday's two batches of strawberry jam making. Twelve half-pints and three full pints. Hubby wanted to open one at breakfast this morning, but I had to put the kibosh on that as we currently have an open jar of last year's jam in the refrig.

Hope this "new" gift idea pans out. Seems like it should give me extra time for doing things I want to do but never seem to find the time for during the holidays.

So bring on the berries . . . we'll be making LOTSA jam!

Dried Strawberries

There's a chance I may be getting a smidge wiser in my old age.

I like to dehydrate a portion of our strawberry harvest each year to use as an addition to granola and trail mix. But for some reason, I wait until the end of the season to do this, first putting by as much jam and frozen berries for smoothies as I think we will need.

One reason this doesn't make good sense is because at the end of the season the berries are much smaller. That means I spend more time slicing the smaller berries and laying out a gazillion more slices on the dryer trays than I would if I used larger berries.

So yesterday I took the biggest berries from the most recent harvest, sliced and dehydrated them. Much easier, faster and more efficient. Just HOW many years did it take before I figured this out??

I had four full trays of sliced strawberries.

Ten hours later . . . a very full quart of dried berry slices to stash away in the pantry.

Today? I'm making strawberry jam as we speak. Doesn't it smell dee-licious?

Ya Gotta Love A Sunflower

I'm not sure what happened, but I didn't plant any sunflowers in the garden last year. And I missed them. Although I've never gotten any to mature enough that I could actually harvest seeds from them, that doesn't really matter. The old-fashioned look they lend to a garden is enough for me.

This shot was taken in 2008 of me showing how tall the sunflowers were (I'm 5'3") the last time they appeared in my garden.

This year I made certain to remember to put in a 35' row of them on the far south end of the field garden.

They're still not very big so far this year, maybe 12" tall. And I didn't get very good germination either. But then we haven't exactly had sunflower-friendly weather either. I planted them a foot apart for the whole 35' and only sixteen germinated. Would you question my gardening know-how if I confessed the seeds I used were from . . . 1999? ("We-e-e-ll," she says in a whiny voice.) I do have extremely good luck saving and using old seeds . . . but I may have pushed the envelope just a little too far on this one.

I filled in the gaps a couple of weeks ago (with more of the same old seeds) and a couple more have made an emergence. The row won't be perfect but I look forward to seeing those big, bright, happy faces following the sun across the sky each day.

Reminder to self: Order sunflower seeds for 2011 garden.

Nary A Raindrop This Day

I suppose there's still a chance we could get rain in the five more hours remaining of this day, but for all practical working outside purposes, we made it without any moisture falling on us.

Even though I waited until 1 o'clock to go pick strawberries, the plants were still wet. Not a good situation as I've read you can spread fungus in a strawberry patch by handling the plants when wet. I'm just hoping there was no fungus in there to be spread!

That's a regular sized egg with the strawberry in my hand. The berries are always biggest when they first come in and then get smaller as the season goes on. I harvested 11-1/4 pounds today. That brings the year's total to 17 pounds 6 ounces.

I managed to get a fairly good picture of Mama Mallard and part of her brood. She still has all ten ducklings she hatched on May 10th. She is standing in the foreground with six of her ducklings behind her. You sure can't tell the males from the females yet, can you? (They all still look identical in coloring to her but I can't believe all ten are females.)

The goslings are no longer the fuzzy butts shown in my blog header photo. They're almost totally feathered out and very close to the same size as Mother and Father Goose. We've definitely got three females and four males. Mom and Pop are in the foreground in this picture.

I hope you all had as nice a weather day as we did here.

Pull On Your Boots

We're going for an early morning garden tour. It's still very, very wet out there but we have lots of sunshine. A little, teeny-tiny bit overcast, but I'm ignoring that and hoping we'll have enough sun to dry things up by noon so I can pick strawberries.

Yippee, my little stand of Swiss chard is big enough to harvest for a Green Pie. I think I personally prefer a Green Pie made with Swiss chard over one made with spinach. Hubby would vote for just the opposite, but we've already had several using spinach so it's time for the Swiss chard edition. Besides that I'm the cook, and I can do whatever I want. And any time anybody else wants to be the cooker, I'll gladly eat whatever he/she chooses to prepare. I never get enough of other people's good cooking and really do get tired of my own. Can any of you out there relate?

I'm so happy with my mizuna mustard greens. Love these little leaves in a tossed salad. Usually by this time of the season all my mizuna would have bolted and been done gone. Must be the rain and/or cool weather this year?

Despite lack of sunshine and warm weather, lo and behold, my zucchini plants are looking happy and healthy. Small but healthy.

The four cherry tomato plants are lush and green. I don't think the little blossoms have changed one iota in the last few weeks, but I still have hopes.

My second planting bed of lettuce is lookin' kinda purdy, don'tcha think? Growing up I never knew there was anything but iceberg lettuce. What a shame. No wonder tossed salads taste so good now when I know there is a plethora of colors, tastes, and textures of lettuce to use.

Here is a row (unthinned by the by) of Osaka Purple Mustard coming along nicely. But what is that right in the center of the row? Obviously, somebody slipped a seed into the packet that didn't belong there. Who is this foreigner? Is it some kind of radish? Needless to say, I can't pull it out until my curiosity is satisfied.

This mish-mosh of a bed is my "wild flower" bed. As it was growing, I pulled out everything that I knew for sure was a weed even leaving some that were questionable.

You probably can't tell from this picture but it looks to me like the whole bed is stuffed with only one kind of flower. (At least I hope it's a flower.) The packet said the seeds were a mixture of Bachelor's Button, Shasta Daisy, Lanceleaf Coreopsis, Calliopsis, Foxglove, Purple Coneflower, Blanket Flower, Catchfly, Dame's Rocket, Blazing Star, Toadflax, Evening Primrose, Phlox, Corn Poppy, and Black-eyed Susan. Now, I am NOT a flower expert but I know what some of those look like growing and I can't find anything but the one kind of plant.

The packet was supposed to sow 25 square feet. My bed is 32 square feet so the seed shouldn't have been too crowded for some of each seed to take hold. Oh, well. Time will tell. At least something germinated this time. I think this is the third or fourth time I've tried to establish a wild flower bed without much to show for it.

Okay, time to get off my duff and make some progress on my list for the day. Hope you all have a wonderful, sunny Saturday. (But not too, too hot!) Unless you need rain, of course. If I could, I'd share some of ours with you!

No, I'm Not Losing It

I totally remember blogging about this pie last year in July. But it is just sooo good that I had to remind you of it today again. Besides, maybe some of you weren't on board last year, and I wouldn't want you to miss such a good thing.

Every year when I have fresh strawberries from the garden, I make this pie at least once, maybe sixteen times. It's so easy and the flavor is light and refreshing and oh, so wonderful.

I made it first thing yesterday morning, and put it in the refrig. Then we did serious damage to it at lunch time.

I had a hard time getting the whipping cream to set up stiff enough (I think my cream was too fresh) so the individual pieces were a bit on the sloopy side, but we ate it just the same. No problem.

If you have an uncontrollable urge to make this pie, clicking on will take you right to a step-by-step how-to for preparing one of your very own.

There are more strawberries out in the garden right now that should have been picked today but the rain started early on and continued up until a short time ago. The strawberry patch is soaking wet and (just to add a little diversity to things) mosquitoes are rampant tonight. I'm hoping 1) the slugs don't eat all of the berries, and 2) we have sunshine tomorrow so I can get at the harvest.

Beating the Rain

Before breakfast this morning (thank heavens I had had my latte), hubby announced he wanted to get out and seed the pumpkin patch with buckwheat before the rain started.

First order was to move the pile of rocks unearthed in yesterday's tilling operation.

A lot of weight ended up in that wheelbarrow. He had to push it down the driveway a ways, across our small hay field and into the wood's line to dump it on our designated rock pile. When he got back, he announced he'd used up all his deodorant for the day.

I worked at leveling out the ground before planting.

Then we seeded the ground liberally (using the latest technological methods, as you can see) and raked the area one more time to bury the seeds.

Now we're inside, we've been fortified with a hearty breakfast, and the raindrops have started falling. Perfect timing! A gold star to my better half for getting us out there first thing today.

Back in the Pumpkin Patch Again

Remarkably enough, the thick stand of oats and barley we cut down in the pumpkin patch recently had dried enough by late yesterday morning to till it under.

The northwest corner of this patch is just full of rocks. (I think they grow there.) One that hubby encountered was so big he had to break it apart with the humongous maul before being able to move it. (If you don't think banging on that for a while jars every fiber in your body . . . !)

"No problem. I think (grunt) I can (groan) move it (grit, grit) now."

Once again, the job of getting it all tilled in took longer than we expected.

Finally done!

Now all we have to do is move the rocks and rake it smooth so we can plant some buckwheat.

Hubby asked me at dinner last night which job I wanted to do: Move the rocks or rake the soil smooth. I thought about it and replied, "Neither."

Chomp, Chomp, Chomp

A few days ago a friend and commenter asked if I had much trouble with insect damage on any of the things I grew in the garden.

Well, it seems like there is usually something every year but it certainly doesn't always mean total death and destruction to the plants. Supposedly, the better shape your soil is in, the less the insects will bother your plantings.

When we first started gardening on this piece of land, we had a lot of trouble with cut worms for several years. And I mean A LOT! So far this year (knock, knock), I have yet to see my first one.

Then there was the year the grasshoppers ate just about everything. Now that was depressing.

This year there is something that is taking big bites out of a lot of different things. Something else is making little holes in some leaves. Then there is the sneaky creepy-crawly that is stripping the leaves completely off my Moss Rose plants. So far I haven't been able to spot any of the insects that are tormenting me . . . and my plants.

Big bites are being taken out of ---

This was my very first cosmos to bloom and it immediately got chomped on.

More bites out of some potato leaves.

The Red Kuri squash is not being left out of the taste testing.

Nor are the Morning Glories.

All the little pickling cucumber sprouts have these tiny holes in them and some have bites taken out.

This is the second planting of slicing cucumbers I've made. I'm a whole month behind on them because the first ones were about three inches high when something started munching first on the leaves and then went on to the stems leaving only about 1/4" of stem sticking up out of the ground.

This is what Moss Rose plants are supposed to look like. See the spikey little leaves on the red stems?

These are Moss Roses in a different part of the garden. Something has stripped all of the leaves off the stems.

These pictures probably make my garden look like a total disaster area but it's truly not. I could show you maybe fifty or more pictures of healthy, vibrant plants that haven't been bothered by anything.

So, to answer your question, Jen, there is usually one insect or another each year that seems intent on spending their summer vacation in my garden. But most of the time if the damage looks as if it's going to be too great, there is some safe, organic spray or solution or remedy that I can use to discourage them.

Also, even a very harmful insect won't be bothersome for the whole summer. They have their life cycles and if a plant can just make it through the critical stage, it will go on to thrive and produce a harvest. And in most cases, as I had to do with my slicing cucs this year, I can replant at a later time and avoid the destructive stage of that particular insect.

Can I Have a Do-Over, Please?

This has been one of those days that we all have occasionally. Nothing has gone exactly as I had hoped or planned today.

The highlight of the day was the haul from my two forays into the strawberry patch. Our first day's harvest of berries totaled exactly 5 pounds. Can't beat that with a stick.

After our misty morning, the sun actually did come out for about two hours. What a treat! Unfortunately, I wasn't home for most of that period so we didn't make any headway on construction nor did I move ahead on garden projects.

When I got home it was starting to gray up again so I grabbed my bowl and went out to pick more berries before rain came again.

Got this lovely bowlful for my efforts.

Then I managed to get some lettuce, scallions, radishes and rhubarb harvested just before the rain drove me in.

I chopped up the rhubarb and started to make some sauce for the freezer. After lighting a flame under the full saucepan, I left the kitchen . . . and completely forgot about it.

Ever had your house filled with Eau d' Burned Rhubarb? No? Lucky you. Sure hope I can resurrect the pan.

The rain has stopped right now but the weatherman is telling us to expect thunderstorms with possible damaging hail tonight. Oh, my poor unprotected tomaters!

First Strawberries

Morning made its appearance today in the same way it has been . . . foggy, wet and gloomy. I knew the strawberry patch would be soaking wet, but I was willing to brave anything (weeell, almost anything) to have fresh strawberries for our breakfast. (This first harvest of the season comes about two weeks earlier than normal.)

How can just reaching into strawberry plants (lush though they are) to pick ripe berries make you feel so totally drenched? I know I was wet up to my elbows for sure, and my garden shoes were squishy (why didn't I put on boots?), but the reward was worth it.

There are plenty more out there, but I stopped when I knew I had enough for breakfast. I'm keeping track of the poundage we harvest this year so when I got inside, onto the scale this bunch went. One pound, 6 ounces . . . and we consumed every smidgen.

Unfortunately, because of our wet weather, the slugs have been enjoying the berries, too. As I'm picking and find a berry that has been too decimated by the ugly-bugly creatures, I lob it up over the seven foot high fence into the poultry yard, and the birds come running to claim it before it even hits the ground. Maybe they aren't such dumb clucks after all.

A Wee Bit More Progress

We didn't manage to finish the insulating of the pantry ceiling today, but we got close. Rain added that little bit of a challenge to our efforts again. More cutting in the garage and running to the pantry and back.

The hole you see in front of hubby on the ladder is where the one window in the pantry will go. The hole in the ceiling behind him isn't really a hole; it's a skylight which will bring a smidge of natural light into the pantry.

He got a little more done after I took this picture. Doesn't it look nice and sunny outside the cut out for the window? Yup, just as I went in to fix dinner, the sun came out and it was lovely for about 15 minutes. Then the fog and grayness rolled back in. Talk about a teaser.

I'm hoping for some nice weather tomorrow because I think our first strawberry picking of the season is ready. Yahoo!

Cut . . . But Soaked

Even though our morning remained foggy, gray and very damp, the mower man decided he wanted to get the oats and barley in our small (14' x 23') pumpkin patch cut today.

Of course, as soon as he started mowing, the rain began to fall.

The first pass was a little difficult and messy but the rotary mower on our old Gravely garden tractor was up to the task.

Almost finished.

View from an upstairs window of the oats and barley laid low.

Now we'll have to wait for better weather to till the green stuff in. If that never happens, I suppose it would decompose nicely into the soil. I'M KIDDING! There will be a break in this weather soon. There will be a break . . . there will be a break . . . there will be . . .

Paradise Under Glass: An Amateur Creates a Conservatory Garden

Paradise Under Glass: An Amateur Creates a Conservatory Garden - Ruth Kassinger Paradise Under Glass is a memoir about how a women in her forties with no experience creates a prosperous indoor conservatory in her own home after coping with tragedy. After her older sister dies a long painful death from a brain tumor Ruth herself is shortly afterward diagnosed with breast cancer. After a year of chemotherapy and several surgeries she is in remission. With her two oldest girls away at college she finds herself home alone with her husband, their dog, and their youngest daughter who will soon leave home as well. Kassinger lives in Maryland and one night she wonders into the US Botanic Garden's conservatory in D.C. shortly before closing time. She becomes entranced by the beauty and tranquility of the place and although she knows nothing about plants or indoor gardening she decides then and there to build a conservatory in her home. The book follows Ruth's journey as she learns about conservatories and their history, of her early triumphs and the plants that didn't make it, and of her travels into the world of indoor gardening. Along the way she visits famous greenhouses and indoor plant growers, takes a trip to Florida to visit a company that breeds butterflies just for indoor conservatories, and buys a truly extraordinary amount of plants.

This book was truly a delight to read. I personally know nothing about conservatories or gardening in general and yet I found the book truly engaging. One thing that Kassinger does really well is incorporating her research about the history and evolution of conservatories alongside her own personal experiences seamlessly. When she talks about buying her first citrus plants she also tells us about medieval orangeries which were the earliest versions of the modern day conservatory. She also talks about plant explorers who would travel through Africa and Asia in search of new plants and the trouble they had shipping their specimens back to Europe. I particularly enjoyed two chapters of hers. The first was when she travels to see a woman in Florida who breeds butterflies for people who have conservatories or butterfly gardens. Kassinger decides to buy catlipillers and hatch her own butterflies. She ends up running into trouble when she finds herself unable to grow milkweed, the only plants monarch butterflies eat. She eventually ends up having to scavenge the weed from the wild just to keep her catipillers happy until they pupate into adult butterflies. I also enjoyed the chapter on ferns and how in Victorian times fern hunting was all the rage. It was especially popular among women. Botany was considered a suitable past time for women and the subject matter was not thought to be so difficult as to incomprehensible to their weaker minds. In fact the study of botany become so popular among women that some began to wonder whether it was even appropriate course of study for men to take in university.

I did however have a few qualms with the book. Like I said I know next to nothing about plants. She often times just used the Latin word to name her plants. I had no idea what she was talking about when she did this. Other times she would use their common names or else use their Latin names with the common name in parenthesis or else the English name with the Latin name in parenthesis. I would have preferred for her to just stick to one method when naming plants instead of bouncing all over the place. Another thing that she would do that would pull me out of the book was that she would sometimes italicize words out of nowhere like when using the word neuron or something. She wasn't trying to emphasize anything so there was no reason to italicize. It was very annoying. I would also have liked the book to have been better edited. At one point she goes on for 14 lines just describing objects in this guys house. In another section she puts a whole paragraph in parenthesis. Basically I had some issues with the formatting of the book but not with the content for the most part. So even though I did enjoy this book I have rated it only 3 carrots instead of four because of the issues just discussed. That being said if you like gardening or have an interest in conservatories and their history this book would most likely be something that you would enjoy.

Lausitz 2017: Round of 8 preview

Eight pilots remain as we get closer to the podium

Brageot is through

The Round of 8 here in Germany is going to be one of the most exciting in the sport's history. Some big championship hopefuls will not be going through to the Final 4 – here's how they all line up...

Heat 8
Matt Hall vs Mikael Brageot
Matt Hall has the experience and the knowledge of this track, but Mikael Brageot is confident that he'll get through to the Final 4 before this season is finished. Both will have to fly perfectly to have any chance of going through.

Heat 9
Yoshihide Muroya vs Kirby Chambliss
These two are only separated by three points in the championship standings, and both feel they have a chance of winning here. This will be a tense battle that will be the tightest of the day.

Heat 10
Petr Kopfstein vs Juan Velarde
Both pilots have found form here. Velarde is determined to put his Porto troubles behind him by finishing on the podium. Kopfstein will also be looking for his first podium since Chiba this year. It'll be the smoothest, calmest pilot that advances.

Heat 11
Pete McLeod vs Martin Sonka
First against second in the standings, Hollywood couldn't have written a better script. McLeod has struggled to find form here in Lausitz and has been mid-table, but you wouldn't bet against him. Sonka has been the fastest today so far and will want to be quick here. This is the heat you don't want to miss.

The Round of 8 begins at 16:00 (local) watch all the action right HERE.

Get Healthy Get your hair back

For women, healthy looking hair is a symbol of beauty.Whether you are young or old, finding clumps of hair in a single brush stroke and thinning of your locks can be traumatic.

Female hair loss is less culturally acceptable, which only adds to the stigma for those experiencing it. In many cases, it affects a woman’s self- confidence and influences her whole quality of life.

But, are these hair issues related only to cosmetic appearance? Or, are there deeper reasons attributed to hair fall? Determining the cause of hair loss at the first noticeable sign can help in diagnosing many serious medical conditions. The health of hair and scalp are indicators to what is happening deep inside our mind and body.

Kelly McCreary and Aja Naomi King on the Power of Sisterhood

Aja is featured in an interview with her friend and fellow actress Kelly McCreary on the new! In the interview, they discuss their friendship and the entertainment industry.

Actors Kelly McCreary and Aja Naomi King met in an airport in 2012. They were both boarding a plane to Vancouver to shoot the pilot for “Emily Owens M.D.,” a drama about doctors in which they would eventually co-star. The show was short-lived, but their friendship was not — the two have remained close, navigating Hollywood’s strange landscape, celebrating each other’s successes, and always having each other’s backs. On the eve of the season premieres of their Shondaland shows (King plays Michaela Pratt on “How to Get Away With Murder” and McCreary plays Maggie Pierce on “Grey’s Anatomy”), they talked business, inclusion, competition, TV — and how they maintain their inspiring friendship through it all.

KM: So, we’ve known each other since before we both arrived in Shondaland.

ANK: Yes, we got on a plane together to fly to Vancouver to shoot that pilot [for “Emily Owens M.D.”], and we got to sit beside each other [and] we talked the whole way there. I even think I told you then — because you were cast before I was and I still had to test for [the show] — when I saw you were cast, I immediately thought, “Oh, well they picked their black girl. They’re not going to cast me now.” So, when I also got the job, I was just like, “Whoa.” It felt so groundbreaking and amazing.

Ridley's Believe It Or Not May 21 History Diversity Day

Ridley's Believe It Or Not—May 21, 2014:  Today is another holiday wasteland of all holidays. Hope you looking forward to the Memorial Day Weekend and will enjoy these meager holidays, or celebrate in a culinary fashion, found for today along with the factoids and quote.
             1. Sister Maria Hummel Day—honoring the birthday of the German nun who created the artistic figurines in the 30’s and 40’s known as Hummels.
             2. Diversity Day—promoting cultural diversity and harmony and established by UN resolution in November of 2001 in response to the  911 attacks on the World Trade Center, Pentagon and  UA 93; good thought but no one is listening in the jihadist world as Boko Haram clearly turns a deaf ear.
            3. National Employee Health and Fitness Day—promoting employee health and fitness in the workplace although do not expect to see spontaneous calisthenics like you might see in a Japanese auto factory (given the recall records at GM might not be a bad idea though).
            4. National Strawberries and Cream Day (logical as it follows National Pick Strawberries Day on the 20th)—on another day of meager holidays, at least one to sink your teeth into and blow the benefits of employee fitness at work.
On this day in:
            a. 1881 the American Red Cross was established by Clara Barton in Washington, D.C.
            b. 1992 after 30 seasons, Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show hosted his penultimate episode and the last one featuring guests.
            c. 2011 noted radio Christian broadcaster Harold Camping’s prophecy that Jesus Christ would return on this day and the saved would rise up and return to heaven with the end of the world occurring five months later like so many such other prophecies failed, but probably had some people shaking prior to the 21st.
Best tribute to an icon like Carson is to share some of his sayings:
·  “Never continue in a job you don't enjoy. If you're happy in what you're doing, you'll like yourself, you'll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined."
·  "I was so naive as a kid I used to sneak behind the barn and do nothing."
·  "If life was fair, Elvis would be alive and all the impersonators would be dead."
·  "My success just evolved from working hard at the business at hand each day."

Choose Garden Gifts For Father's Day

Not sure you want to develop your greenhouse all on your personal? That's completely good. Exactly where there are greenhouses and supplies there are greenhouse kits. A quick search on the web will unearth no pun meant some classic, stunning, and extremely practical greenhouses for your ecological requirements. But also be wary of which kind of kit you purchase. Not only are these much more expensive, they're highly specialized and will not allow for any errors. Be conscious of what you're buying at all occasions. Personally although, if you have a weekend to spare, I usually recommend developing your personal greenhouse. With a distinct set of ideas they're very simple to make (essentially just the cost of materials), and that adds up to becoming a fraction of the cost of a package or prefabricated greenhouse any working day.First and most essential is a personal go to. Go on a tour of the actual apartment you'll move into. Or as Kenny Rogers may suggest, "just drop by to see what situation their situation is in." Any place that exhibits you an condominium that's soiled ought to be a red-flag. Are the walls coated with a new coat of paint? Are the counter tops and kitchen area flooring so glisteningly thoroughly clean that you want to eat off of them? Have the carpets cleaned? To see an apartment lingering with the stench of cigarettes and carpet that rivals turf after a rainstorm should problem you. You may want to steer your interest to a location that has carpet that makes you just want to consider off these shoes, operate your toes through it, and breath in that new new condominium aroma. That's more like it!Perhaps the greatest misconception surrounding gardening is just how much work a individual has to do to ensure that the garden grows well. While it is accurate that there is a lot of hard work concerned in growing a garden, that function is generally very rewarding. Lots of gardeners insist that gardening function feels a lot more like playing (even when all they do that day is pull a bunch of weeds). Obviously the quantity of function and effort involved will rely on the dimension and scope of the backyard you start. No matter what, you are heading to discover 1 factor to be true: whether or not your garden is small or massive, you are going to find the experience of expanding issues extremely gratifying.The Web has a great numerous sites dedicated specifically to free landscaping ideas, thereby enabling people to initiate their own landscaping tasks, at their own tempo, without the cost of participating a contractor.

These resources include handpruners (secateurs) and a pruning noticed. Shears (pruning shears or a hedge trimmer) are utilized less generally. Shears are utilized more frequently for topiary or a hedge. The tools, supplies and items for growing and shaping are varied. Basically, this is whatever a tree shaper chooses for creating the design and could include wooden boards, pipe, rope, wire, string, tape, etc. Even an item like a metal patio bench could be utilized as a sample or mold.With a backyard basket it is also very simple to clean your veggies - sometimes prior to you at any time get within. Many gardeners simply location their vegetables in a basket, spray them off with a hose, and then get prepared to eat them. Does it get any simpler than that?Most genuine estate transactions in the US are buyers purchasing current homes; or houses that have been formerly lived in. These older houses span the spectrum of condition. Some have been lovingly maintained and others have been dangerously and incomprehensibly neglected. Usually the sellers have, at least superficially, been sprucing up prior to they put the house on the market. New paint and landscaping usually, all the way to some who have been busy tending to significant problems still left unattended till selling entered the strategy.You'll have to consider what kind of shoes you require.
