Maggie from Porcupine Hollow Farm sent me a lovely hydrangea for my garden. Can’t wait for it to bloom in a few years.

Omigosh, as soon as I saw the title to the episode in my podcast feed, I thought “Fhqwhgads!!” We are huge Homestar Runner fans here. :)
It seems to me that having “too much on your plate” is cultivating “busy” instead of “simple”! It’s good to evaluate what you really want and need, and realize that you don’t have to do it all at once. Very smart.

Yay, Strongbad! My favorite Strongbad-ism: “fangoriously devoured”.
Lots of wisdom in this podcast! I’m another person who wants to do it all, but am finding that I need to limit myself so I can do fewer things better.

I work in (and live near) the winter strawberry capitol of the world….Plant City, FL. The strawberry plants in the fields are all planted as annuals with “strawberry onions” planted between the rows.

If you don’t listen already, a great and entertaining podcast about “hobby pig raising” is Chicken Thistle Farm coopcast. They are a couple in NY that raise pigs, do a small CSA, and have “regular” jobs and do a great job podcasting about it all!
