What is your weather like ... today

[callingcolleen1]

I was thinking the same thing... Panzies are good till at least minus 10!

We are having some cold weather here now with some snow (very pretty I may add) Next week looks like we may be breaking some record low temperatures for this time of year

ornamental kale and cabbage for winter plants .I used to plant them every winter at my house in NJ but here it does not stay cold enough for them and the rot

 

[MitchM]

We made the mistake last fall of taking in the kale before frost.
I didn't know that frost improves the taste of kale. We'll know better for this year.

It does the same for brussel sprouts .Cold weather improves them and people make the mistake of pulling them up at the end of the year and my plants back in NJ were 5 years old and produced all winter long .I used to shovel out to my garden when I got in the mood for them as a snack and in salads .I also had great asparagus .One thing I miss is my nice fertile garden .Lots of leaf mulch that would be bagged with the lawn mower and covered with tarps in my garden and it made the best soil .Grass clipping compost .

one year we had a big row of kale and left it in the garden, and by March it was growing so well we had a whole new crop to pick!

That's funny Mitch cuz they are dancing to my music by Huey Lewis and they dance to it perfectly! Happy you are getting snow

 

[MitchM]

Hey! I saw Huey Lewis and the News in concert.
They opened for The Kinks!

 

[j.w]

Cool that was a ways back

 

[MitchM]

Doesn't feel like it....
Frank Zappa, Kiss, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen...man, I hope I don't forget those memories.

 

[j.w]

Brings back lots of memories for me. Didn't go to their concerts but sucked in a lot of their tunes in my head and I can still sing along w/some of them. Wow Frank Zappa used to drive my mother crazy. I had this album and she used to Freak Out

 

[MitchM]

All those concerts were in Vancouver for me.
I was 17, what did I know?
Joe's Garage!

 

[j.w]

We were into him way earlier than that song. 1966 was when I remember their music. Wasn't into them after the 70's. We were teens in the mid to late 60's.
I left home when I turned 18 to live the psychedelic life

 

[MitchM]

The psychedelic life is still around here and there.
