    Air fryer

    We love our air fryer. Chicken wings are tricky for sure. I found that if I cook them for the desired amount of time and then pull them out and spray olive oil on them, they get crispy. My air fryer is also a rotisserie and we use that all the time. One of my favorite things to make is pork loin.

    Where's my stimulus?

    I was keeping track of this one and I saw that they are messing with income limits. I also saw that there is one Democrat Senator that isn't on board yet.

    Commercial potato growers

    I've grown many potatoes and I've only ever seen them grown underground. They are really deep, you mound the soil up. I watched the video and I don't think you're watching all of it either.

    Protecting the land

    Yeah I agree with OhSusanna on this. I hope you spoke up and defended farmers. I think sometimes people think we are ruining the land by planting crops. I also think that people think we clear land of trees and that doesn't protect the environment. We do so many good things though.

    Biden Administration Halts Residential Evictions in USDA Multifamily Housing Communities in Accordance with CDC Guidance

    I was glad to see this extended too. I really just wish that people had to prove that they were affected. In NY, our Governor keeps extending the no rent/no eviction and no shut-offs of electric. That's all great if people didn't abuse it.

    Aggressive pig!

    He isn't showing aggression towards us adults. I have noticed that he is a little pushy towards our younger children. I did notice that he seems to be getting better. I feel like the new pigs are stepping back and letting him be the "boss".

    Farmer group challenges

    I agree with you to a point on this. I think most of the members need to have more than the basic knowledge of farming. I think others can be just starting out and learning.

    Seeds sprouting in compost pile

    Interesting! I've never had sprouts pop up from our compost pile. I would try to make it hotter and see if that helps. I really don't know how else to stop this.

    Homemade pizza... toppings

    I love pizza, homemade or from a pizzeria. @Urban Homestead ... I don't like Pizza Hut pizza but I love their breadsticks. When we make homemade pizza we also make a few. I love veggies, tons of mushrooms and slices of tomatoes. I also love crumbled up sausage and pepperoni.

    How is your vet?

    We recently switched vets (for our pets) because we were unhappy with the one we had. Our local vet retired and sold the business to another vet. They jacked the prices on everything and are so impersonal. Our large animal vet is great! I hope he never retires! His daughter is now coming along...

    Politics Over The Virus

    I check out CNN and FoxNews daily and there is always something about the virus. I think that it seems like less because President Trump and the taskforce isn't giving a daily briefing anymore, possibly?

    Aggressive pig!

    We have eight pigs and one of them just started acting all aggressive. I would say it's been happening for a week now. We did just add three, we had five. The aggressive pig was one of the original ones. He isn't hurting the others but I feel like he is "pushy" and he tries to show us who the...

    USDA Continues to Move SNAP Participants Forward

    This is great! I really hope that people receiving benefits will take advantage of these opportunities to gain skills. I think any program that helps people gain skills is a great one.

    4-H or girl/boy scouts

    Well we let the kids decide. One chose scouts, the other 4-H. I laughed but we will do it. I'll keep you updated on how they like the groups. My husband wanted them to both be in the same thing, but I am okay with them not.

    Bartering as part of business

    I absolutely see it coming back. I think for us country farmers it's always kind of been a thing. We help each other out at no cost. I can see it happening again for others now too. When you can't get what you need due to shortages you trade.

    Irritated with some small equipment (tools)

    Honestly I was talking about a couple of DeWALT tools. I bought him a new impact wrench and cordless drill. It wasn't a combo pack, they were stand alone products. They had no battery! We had to go to Lowe's the next day and buy the rechargeable big battery pack.

    No COVID cert?

    Honestly I'm sure it will happen if they don't get the virus under control soon. Someone will think of it, to get the upper hand on their competition.

    Thinking of growing houseplants

    I'd like to know more about these patents too? I would think you could add them to your flower stand/vegetable stand. Are you thinking of opening a big plant business? We grew houseplants when I was growing up. We gifted them and didn't sell them.

    Random question on birds

    My young child is now infatuated with birds (watching them). She watches them at my parents. We don't have bird feeders up but we are planning on it. I rarely notice birds around here in the winter and honestly I'm clueless when it comes to birds. I'm going to put out suet feeders today (my...

    Fiskars yard tools still made in USA?

    I don't know where they are made now. It saddens me that the new ones you bought aren't as good. I've bought Fiskars' scissors for many years with no issues. They truly are or were the best brand in my opinion.
