Remember this sweet tater that got left in my van after moving and was all dried up and looked like this a few months ago? Well only 1 start had started for me I planted by my arch just to see if it would grow better and it sure did!. Check out this harvest! It even went as far as jumping the fence and I had to dig taters out of my lawn lol 😂 here's to being Abel to start more plants for next year from this same starts my sister gave me 3yr ago.

When hand picking the bugs,spraying with soapwater and flat out poison don't kill the bugs you bring in the doo doo birds aka Guinea hens. Idk how much damage they will do to the garden but I'm about to find out. I figure they can't do anymore then the squash bugs ,blister beetles and grass hoppers are doing. Only thing is they are scared of my shade cloth so slow moving at the moment. But I haven't seen them attack the tomatoes yet. I did pick the orange tomatoes before we let them in just in case.

Nows the time to start your sweet potato slips. This poor tater I started growing vines last spring we ended up moving so I took him with but never planted anything he even got forgotten in the van for a few weeks with no water. Oops. Well he cam back so I clipped off all the vines and we will see if it van make me more cuz I got no taters to start any from.

To start sweet potato slips take a tater and put 1 end in water keep changing the water every few days. I put them in my kitchen window sill so when I'm washing my hands I'll switch it the water fast. It will start to sprout once you have vines cut the vines so you have 2 sets of leafs take off the bottom set and make sure where you took the leafs is in water that's where roots will grow out. 😉 you can get many plants from 1 vine. Just let them stay in water till its warm enough to plant outside. After frost of corse. As they grow if you want big potatoes don't let them Root with the vines keep grass clippings under them or a tarp or plastic. You can also cut the vines back and eat them like a green. After they flower and they are warning frost dig your taters. If you like them sweet wait about 3mo before you eat if you don't like them sweet eat right away. And make sure you cure them a good long while and turn them every few days.

Also if you buy green onions like I had too save them roots they will grow back more for ya.

With prices going higher your probably looking for ways to cut cost at the store. Here is one way and it's super easy guys!

My kids enjoy yogurt and granola in the mornings well a qt of yogurt that is healthy is over $5 a qt now but a half gal of organic milk is about $3 so I took a gal of organic milk heat it up to a temp of 180f then let it cool down to 110 add 2 or 3 helping tablespoons per half gallon milk of a plan yogurt, make sure it's got living culture in it then put a lid on your pot and put it in a cooler with hot water and let it set no peeking for 8hr or more if you want it more tart you will have a nice thick yogurt if you want it thicker more like Greek yogurt use a dish towel and drain it for a little bit to get the extra water out. Drain it over night and you will have a yogurt cheese.

The granola, I found the recipe on scratchpanty.com I since having alot of eggs and we like a crunchy granola with clusters I put in 6 egg whites and did not add the water to the recipe.

With the price of eggs yall you might think about finding a small chicken coop or some free pallets and build one and get 3 or 10 hens.

All jokes aside if you can't find eggs or can't aford eggs you can make a flax egg with 1 tablespoon flax meal you can make your own meal by blending up flax seed or buy it already ground and 3 tablespoons water this will equal 1 egg. And you can't even tell in any baking that you didn't put an egg in.

Working on my daughter's room tonight ironing the floor. We have staple holes all over the floor and whenni put stain over it it makes them homes really dark and stand out like a soar thumb. So I started playing around with dif wood fillers making my own and store bought and they are stain darker then the floor making the slop filled stick it. So I had an idea. Water makes wood expand and heat can only help right? Yep so here I am ironing my floor. This dose scratch the iron so this iron is trash when I'm done it was broken already but it will not fix my floor no money out of my pocket. So that's that's win for me!
