Thanks Myrnie – now dh and pancake boy are sick so hoping this round is short. We had been out of supplement for 2 weeks and don’t sleep much around these parts so it was a bad recipe…

Wendy, that is my third juicer. The first one was just a $30 one from Target which is a great way to go until you are sure you will use it forever and ever which I am, after 15 years of juicing. It’s funny, I’m to the point in my life now where it no longer makes sense to buy things that will last a lifetime since I won’t likely get my use out of them! Oh to have money when you are young and have your youth ahead of you…

Julia, I feel guilty listening to the national weather. As soon as your ground is thawed you can sew turnips & kale since they germinate at really low temps and make for a nice early spring crop (along with claytonia, purslane, sorrel, arrugula which I’ll sew outside this weekend and then we’ll likely be eating those by end of March. Exciting!

I love that spring is coming to you! That is such a brilliant feeling. Everything here (in NY) is cold, though we didn’t get the snow that a lot received. I’m contemplating your turnips and kale, so I don’t feel so bad about the hard, cold, earth out here.

Your photos are gorgeous! And, I am nearly convinced to get a juicer.

Oh life. Why are these guys so sure they can do that kind of thing? It must be the testosterone, eh?

KFG – I feel like all I’ve eaten lately is soup and breakfast!

Auburn, glad you are back and your stove too. I still say it’s worth it to have a professional hook it up for you. Some things, like playing with gas and jacking your house up to retrofit for earthquakes are things I prefer my dh not do although he doesn’t always listen to me.

I noticed only the apples were leaving much pulp in the screen so I’ll likely just use it when I add apples and perhaps if I was using juicier apples it wouldn’t have left so much.

That lemon tart is amazing – especially if you add both sticks of butter.
