Man Made Rocks/Stones
Comments (5)One of my favorite subjects. The cement rocks should not be a problem so long as they are cured. They might have added something like fiberglass to the mix but that should be safe as well. I seriously doubt you will get any discount. If there is an interest in this thread I have a list of great resource material I could share. Sandy...See MoreLugging rocks, lugging soil - Whose idea was this rock garden?
Comments (20)rofl... how do I get my rocks? I stick a pitch fork into the ground, and toss anything that sticks into a checken-wire sieve. 'gravel' is anything smaller than the palm of my hand, and that gets dumped in a pile for the paths. small rocks get piled to the left until I hit a bigger rock...then I pry the rock out, and add it to the wall. after you do this half a dozen times, you have a depression in the dirt. I add a coffee can full of worm castings and finished compost, a coffee can or three of water, stick a plant in the depression, and backfill the hole... oh, no, wait- that's how I prepare the garden beds ;) the rocks around here outnumber the insects....See MoreTell Us About Your Rocking Chair
Comments (17)We have had recliners that rocked for years, a regular "2 x 4" type set of furniture that had a couch, chair and rocker, in the early 80's, and the maple rocker my parents bought us when I was pregnant with DD. I still have recliner rockers and the maple rocker. I have inherited a rocker from an aunt who got it from a great aunt. We don't know, and uncle (late husband to the aunt) didn't know, when they cleaned out great aunt's house, if it had belonged to our side of the family or great uncle's side. But it is a family piece and will be kept. No one is allowed to sit in it, as it isn't in very good shape, but still treasured. Even Damien isn't allowed to sit in it. It would probably hold him fine, but he wiggles too much!!! Tami...See More*chanting softly and rocking*
Comments (9)Home made whole wheat angel hair? I'm impressed. My husband makes his own whole wheat pasta - but it's fettucini noodles for his chicken soup. And even then I help when he's ready to use the Atlas pasta machine - my job is to catch the noodles as he cranks them out and then spread them to dry. I think I'd even draw the line at linguini. I can imagine the hours you spent doing it by yourself and then having to arrange all those skinny threads of angel hair!...See Moregwarstong
