What does a person do with 25 mangoes!? I made Mango chutney.
I was happy to get a wonderful deal on Mangoes at the supermarket. They were on sale for 40 cents each if you bought 5 or more or $2.50 each if you bought less than 5. I bought 25!

I managed to dig over my veggie garden this weekend. It might not sound too awful, but I have to do it by hand with a garden fork. Usually I have help, but Hubby dear works shifts and is on nights now. I think it sucks for him 'cause it is finally sunny out and he has to sleep in the cold, dark house while we soak up the sun.
I really love trees, but my practical side says that we really can't park on the road year-round, so we are taking out trees to make a driveway to our new homestead. We don't want stumps in the middle of the road so we have taken these trees out roots and all.
You might ask how on earth we got those stumps out? I saw a video showing how to take out brush and small trees with a post-hole digger - which is basically a heavy metal bar with a blade on the end. We tried it and we can take out a tree in a fairly short amount of time. Well, for smaller trees. We took down one with a diameter of 9" today and that was a real workout. When we took out a tree the size shown in the video below we didn't dig around it at all, but we don't have rocks to deal with either. |
