I can remember when I first raised chickens. The eggs taste so good! The experience of eating a fresh egg is tons better than those in the store.

We always ate the eggs, but never could bring ourselves to eat the chickens, lol. Great post.

Good thoughts, but I wanted to correct one piece:

We can actually grow almonds quite well in Oregon, specifically in the Willamette Valley and on the coast. Hall’s Hardy is the most popular variety, but there are others that thrive here.

In fact, there is one coming into bloom right outside of my office window!

Comment on Go Eco-friendly Christmas Shopping by flyingbird

I like the idea of eco-friendly Christmas shopping. But I also like online shopping. You give me some new thoughts.. I happened to find the DIsney fleece hat and glove set sell at $5. I immediately ordered one for my little brother.After 5 minutes when I finished my order, the lovely set in blue color has sold out. I feel very lucky to get the news from followsales.com early, or I will miss the deal, and miss a better and cheaper gift

Repetition and patience is the trick to training your puppy quickly. You need to use the same command everytime they go “outside”. In the begininning the will need to go often. Everytime they drink water, after every meal, every few hours during the day and even in the middle of the night. if you want to train them quickly you will need to work around their scedule not your own.
