Drew the name for the seeds and planted some onion sets

Okay guys I put in the names folded up in a big bowl, though there were not many. I guess everyone has more seeds than they know what to do with LOL.... so I put the bowl down for Keeper to pick.. The piece of folded paper he nosed first I took out of the bowl...  ..... Henny Penny your name is the one Keeper nosed in the bowl first!!

So send me your address  and I will get these seeds off in the mail to you!

Its been gorgeous here the last couple days! I cannot stay in the house. I keep going back out to either sit and watch the chickens which I love to do or work on some project out there. I even managed to finish a book yesterday while sitting out watching the chickens...

I planted a bag of onion sets as I was pleased with how those onions did last year. No they never did bulb into big onions but I dried all  the nice big green tops and I dried the white parts which were like giant green onions. They have been wonderful to cook with. I put in one bag and I have decided to pick up another bag when I am out next to put in as well!


I took a couple days off from work. I was fast approaching burn out.... I had been working so much. I will be off work a couple more days then back at it :O).

Time off is good and watching chickens is very entertaining. I have a 60 hour week coming up this week and I am not looking forward to it :(

Thank you very much and will you give Keeper a big hug for me! I am so excited! You know how little I know about a computer...I can't get your email link to open so I can send you my address. Maybe you can email me your email. Sorry to be so much trouble. Thank you.

Hi! Great that you could take a couple days off. I like the idea of sitting out and watching your chickens and relaxing. I plant some onion bulbs in the spring in barrels in the driveway as I am afraid Coco will eat them in the fenced in back yard. She eats most everything! Congratulations to Henny Penny! Nancy

Isn't it wonderful to have the garden all cleaned up and cooler weather finally come in?

I've been reading about Japanese onions which they grow in the fall to bulb up in the spring. I wonder if onion sets can be frozen in the spring for fall planting, they only offer them in the spring here.

Congratulations Henny Penny! I had just purchased more seed for fall planting a couple of weeks ago, it's so wonderful playing with new varieties while heading into the depths of winter.
