@WallStreetApes We have a frog here that sounds exactly like a goat bleating. The first time I heard it, I was trying to figure out which of my neighbors had goats.

@lesperlesdu15 Our neighbors called the fire departments on us when my husband was burning weeds like this. They drove by, waved, and he carried on.

Here we go! Last year I was picking 1-3 gallons of berries a day for about a month. We probably have twice as many bushes this year so….
I’m really going to have to sell at a farmers market this year.
I feel like I’m bushwhacking through a jungle. My blackberry jungle.

@6thGenFloGrown I grew them last year and wish I had picked and eaten some of them young. I don’t need 200 luffa sponges 😂

@RobSchneider Marco Rubio has been the biggest best surprise from this administration. I had no idea how awesome he is.

@yamanakanobody We listen to a lot of Japanese music, mostly from anime. 2 of my kids are obsessed with Hatsune Miku and Snail Hose.

@thruforestswild I do need one of these! I have one for knitting needles but it doesn’t work with crochet hooks.

[Melanie @Melhoffgard]

I bought this cute set of crochet hooks from The Pioneer Woman on clearance. Can you guess why they were on clearance?
It wasn’t obvious when I bought them and it’s a huge pain.

@AZLeticia_7 @mrsmeganeverly 😂 He got so upset the last time I used olive oil when I changed the car’s oil.

@ashitagawa_hrak I love “cheese violence” but cheese on sushi is a step too far.

Centimeter by centimeter. It’s coming along.
In ballet class with my daughter earlier this week, a little girl was playing with the ball of yarn pretending it was a hamburger and grilling it. Now all I see is raw hamburger meat while I’m knitting. 😂 🍔
