Wisdom Teeth Removal and my cheeks are bigger than Owen's today.

I am in the mood to rent a spine tingling thriller. A movie that is hair-raising and electrifying. I've been looking forward to this particular documentary since its shortlived theatre debut. . .

Also Ive yet to meet someone who has seen it.

The Movie? . . . Babies


aaawwwwwwww

It follows the lives of 4 babies around the world, whats not to love? Here are some stills from the movie.

We had a great time playing in the pool at Owen's Great Aunt Louisey's! After our Pool time she cooked us a delicious dinner and then we watched old family movies that were originally shot on 16mm film back in the 40's! I saw my dad when he was a child on Christmas. I loved the footage!

Chances are we've shared a conversation recently concerning something I've been trying to grow in the backyard, in a bin or on the kitchen window sill. I've been learning alot from friends, family and of course my dear companion- google. Everytime I give something, I manage to recieve ... please share with me what YOU are growing in Your Backyard!!

Here's a link I find inspiration from... check it out.

We have taken Red Wigglers from the bait shop. I've been feeding them vegan kitchen waste. All of our Vegetable and fruit cuttings. Also things that have spoiled in the fridge we seal in an airtight container. The microbial breakdown of this produce make excellent worm food. I mix this with shredded cardboard soaked in water. This is called bedding. I feed the worms about 3 pounds of waste from our kitchen a week. I stated this project Earth day weekend. In less than a months time. These worms have doubled and tripled in size and are reproducing. This project has big rewards. I've already removed potfuls of beautiful moist black worm dirt 'castings.' Its organic potent plant food at its best. More pictures to come. I've also collected 16 oz of 'worm tea' This is liquid worm casting that collects in a separate bin underneath the tub where i'm feeding my worms. I'm putting this in a spray bottle giving our garden tons of vitamins without risk of burning our plants or adding any synthetic chemicals to our edible garden varities. Vermicomposting has been alot of fun.







This spring we have shared some delicious meals with ingredients from our garden. Our caprese salads have been spectacular thanks to our bountiful Sweet Basil plants,we have 10 thriving Basil plants throughout our yard. Also the Oregano, Lemon Balm, Thyme, Rosemary, Sage and Parsley are delicious on vegetables. Olive oil and these fresh pickings are all we use on vegetables. I had no idea fresh herbs could taste this good. Please come over and pick some!
