I got to tell you on these cold mornings there is only one breakfast that gets me going. That is bacon and eggs with a couple cups of fresh perked coffee.  Just something about them makes me feel good. One thing is the smell of the bacon cooking and coffee perking away on the stove, boy it sure gets the mouth to watering. I know most folks say they aren’t good for you, but I look at it this way. It’s the amount one eats. If you eat bacon and eggs say every day, well I would think that it would be a bit much. But if you say, had it twice a week or so, well it wouldn’t hurt you a bit.  It’s all in the amounts.  Talk Soon

Now there is something that the Powers To Be wants us all to switch too.  Well for this old feller it will never happen. The biggest reason is the mercury that is inside the bulbs which is deadly to humans.  I don’t know where these folks get their thinking as it won’t make our world a better place, it will make it a hundred times worse.  If you happen to drop and break a bulb you are in trouble as the mercury is so fine it can be in the air in seconds. Don’t use your vacuum cleaner if you break one to clean it up as it will put the stuff all through the air. Sweep it up the best you can. Where does these bulbs go when they break or wear out.  Yep right to your dump, in the ground, and then into your water and food.   For another reason I don’t like them I don’t like the light they give off.  I enjoy the yellowish look of our old bulbs as it relaxes me. The Fluorescent Bulbs give off a cold feeling.  Talk Soon

Well hope you all had a good garden this year and got lots put away for winter. I am thinking this is going to be the way in the coming years, as with the way our food supply is going one has to take a serious look on what he or she is eating these days. One sure fire way of fixing the problem of not having good food for the table is to grow their own.

At any rate on the Garlic department, this is the time of year to plant it. Yep hard to believe but Fall is the time to put it in the ground, just before the freeze.  I plant about ten bulbs each year which makes about two fifteen foot rows. Just buy up some bulbs at the grocery store, take them apart and put one clove in each small hole, about an inch or two deep and about three inches apart. That’s it and come next June you will have some of the best, healthiest vegetable going. Talk Soon
