Hi Misty and Andrew
Glad to see your spaghetti tree has been cropping well ;0)
I tried to add to your poll, but couldn’t - don’t know if it’s me or the poll. Have you guys listened to More Hip than Hippie? It’s a really informative show about ways to reduce our impact on the planet, without being at all preachy about it.

Hey India!

I haven’t had any trouble, I just added an answer (then went back in to the management side and removed it). Maybe it’s worth trying again? What web browser are you using?

I’ve heard of More Hip than Hippie, haven’t listened though. Sounds like I should.

HI Andrew
Seems it was a browser issue - I was using Explorer but changing to Firefox did the tick.

I’m happy for you yet jealous that your garden is doing so well. Are you watering or have you been lucky enough to get rain? We’ve had less than 2 inches of rain in the past 2 months and I think my garden is close to a total loss. :(

My mouth was watering as you talked about the strawberries you picked and what you were doing with them. Fresh strawberry ice cream - it just cannot be beat!
I have a food mill and a dehydrator - fruit leather - you have given me an idea!
So you don’t even have to hull the berries to make them into fruit leather - that is an added bonus!

Hi India, unfortunately it’s very ajaxy and that has problems sometimes, oh well I’m glad you got it working.

Sherri, we’re only a few counties north and we need rain. A week and a half ago we had a good couple inches and a couple weeks before that. Our pasture is starting to get dry and crispy though. The garden is irrigated so it does well no matter what. A couple of years ago when there was a good drought the garden went crazy due to the high temps and water. Here’s a picture of all the soaker hoses (click on it for a bigger version):

Hey Peg! You have the idea, and that’s why I love it, just put them through the food mill and voila! Here’s some I took out of the dehydrator this morning:
