Phew. What a week and weekend! Babysitting, picnic, Memorial Day stuff. I backslide in the homesteading practice by using my laundry dryer. If I didn't, hubby would have to wear a wet work shirt in the morning!
There seems to be compost additions on a daily basis. The picnic prep added corn cob, strawberry hulls, cucumber peelings.
I am thinking about taking the recently containered plants and putting them in the ground to let their roots sprawl. From past experience, I know that basil, tomatoes and rosemary can really do well and spread!
Because I'm busy launching my first title, I don't have a lot of time or attention to homestead this week. But these are Week Two goals:
1. Make solar cooker.
2. Make a master grocery list that excludes as many packaged or prepared items as possible. I will list it here.
