My brother is having problems with his next door neighbor and noise. Tonight the neighbor's were playing their "band" at 8pm, which would be fine, except my brother has a baby who's bedroom is right next to their neighbor's garage, where the band members play. They live in a community where the houses are close together... so the garage is about 10 feet or so from baby Jake's room.
What do you do when your neighbor is noisy like this ALL the time and doesn't take into consideration that some people must sleep and have children that must sleep? Calling the cops doesn't help either...
it's time to plant winter crops. i've been planting lots of seeds this week and I see some coming up already!

Quote..."Carlin peas are known as “Carlin” because they were traditionally eaten on Carlin Sunday in Lent in the Christian calendar; on this day children are usually served hot Carlin peas in a little cup at the end of a church service. In Lancashire Carlin peas, also known as black, parched or maple peas, are often served on or around Bonfire Night. Depending on the circumstances it can be a festive dish, a Lent dish, an everyday dish or a pub snack."..unquote...
Sweet Pea is Sponsored by: Teresa Edwards
SNAP Cats rescued Sweet Pea from Vacaville, CA. Sweet Pea is a wonderful kitty, loves to sit on your lap, is very friendly, and loves attention. She has some control over her bladder (she tries to pee in the box sometimes) but is basically incontinent, so it's best to crate her at night. And honestly, she LOVES her crate! Can't wait to get in it at night. Sweet Pea has minor mobility issues in her rear legs, but gets around well. She gets along great with our other cats, and will make a wonderful addition to any family!
Earlier this week, I chopped up/pulled out one of the two batches of Peas, leaving the roots in the ground. Today, I prepped the soil where these grew, by adding some vermiculite, manure and compost and mixed the whole thing.
As I was digging, I found some of the Pea roots which had nodules, which are formed when the beneficial soil-dwelling bacteria, Rhizobium, get into the root cells and fixes nitrogren from the air to a usable form for the Peas.
I chopped these roots up into smaller pieces and mixed them up with the soil.
Aka Chick Pea, Garbanzo Bean, Cepi Principe, Chick Pea "Blond". No matter how we pronounce them, these are favs. in salads or humus. Plants are quite different...offering compound leaves, on tallish grey green stems. Pods are also strange bearing 2 to 4 small peas within. Should be started earlier by 2 to 3 weeks before setting out. Be aware! Chipmunks love them more than us!
Traditionally, St Patrick’s Day is the time to plant peas and potatoes here in NE Ohio. I was getting ready to plant peas yesterday and realized that I have a ton of seed for sugar snap peas, but only two small packets of shelling peas.

Like most boys, Mr Fox, loves dinosaurs.
Mrs PB on the other hand does not - and not just because she's contrary.
In fact she has a theory that they didn't become extinct because of a meteor or climate change, but because they were "STUPID!!!!!!!!".
You would have thought their ferocity might have appeared to Mrs PB's wilder side, but when she heard that Tyrannosaurus Rexes were nothing more than short armed scavengers, and some dinosaurs looked more like birds than dragons she lost all respect for the dim witted fossils.
Incidentally, Mr Fox would like to point out he likes Stegosauruses.
Aka "Prew's Pea". Obtained this one from overseas, in a seed exchange many years ago. Unusual in that it exhibits a natural "fasciation" form (or multiple crowning) offering multiple branching near to the top of its vines. These provide the massive show of pure white flowers later in the season. Heavy producer.
