It's Thursday again and I have once again dutifully compiled a collection of searches that led to this blog in the last week. We had a few fun ones this time around like the German tractors. I actually had to do a bit of research on that one 🙂 German makes of...
Self-Reliant Searches Vol. 2
I intended to post this yesterday since I was a bit under the weather on Thursday...but I just didn't make it. But here they are nonetheless... 🙂 self waters diy tomatoes Well, I interpret this to mean someone must want to set up tomato plants with some sort of...
Get the water flowing again
On Saturday morning we went to Hagebau, our local home improvement store, and finally bought the pump hose and fittings to set up the pump for our watering system. The previous owner of this house ran piping around most of the outside buildings so that he could have...
Cooking made easier
I mentioned on Friday that we had called an electrician to come out and hook up the stove and oven as well as take care of a few other things around the farm. He was supposed to arrive at 3pm but actually didn't make it here until almost 5:30pm. Not a huge deal since...
Every man needs a grill buddy
We came across this project a few months ago and I thought I had posted about it then...but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I don't want to lose the idea again so I am making sure it gets posted about this time.This grill buddy is a fun little project from Lowe's....

More window frosting
I actually did this little project a few weeks ago but I just kept forgetting to post anything about it. Much like the windows in our downstairs bathroom, we used Amorf Frost frosting foil from IKEA to cover these windows. It's a simple enough process: Scrape the...
Building a greenhouse (part 2)
This is part two of our ongoing saga called the greenhouse. Yesterday we built the wooden foundation and side walls but got stopped by missing a simple device, a protractor. Since it's Sunday and we aren't technically allowed to make too much noise we didn't really...
How to build a protractor
Ok, not something that is on top of most peoples list of things to build, a protractor, but sometimes you just don't have one around when you need one. We found ourselves in that tight spot yesterday while building the roof trusses for the greenhouse and first thought...
