The Jungle Garden
Now that it has warmed up again we are back to garden work with a list of things to be done. The Jungle Garden awaits!
The weeds have grow completely over last years garden, and it's up to my four year old and I to attack the weeds with a vengeance.
With hoe and rack in hand, and lot of bottled water, we made a dent in the garden yesterday.
Doing all this hard labor really makes me appreciate that fact that I can hop in the car and get what I need from the grocery store without breaking a sweat.

Black Angus Beef
I was at the grocery store with my grocery list in hand, and ask the butcher where the hamburger was.
He said, "Your in luck we have Black Angus hamburger, just in and on sale!".
Of course I bought it. After all it was recommended by the butcher. Just between you and me, I don't have a clue what is so great about black Angus.
Well a little wikipedia search filled in the blanks for me. Check out the Black Angus article here.
Basically, the article says that Angus is a superior breed, and produces better meat.
I must say, the spaghetti I made with it was very tasty! mmmmm..........

Bad pet food
Whats is going on with all this tainted pet food?
This CNN article claims the tainted food may have came from China.
It's terrible that pets are dying from bad food. Some pets are like children to people.
When I first heard this story, I immediately thought to myself, are they sure it's just pet food and not in other items that are eaten by people!
My dog and cat passed away last year, both at a ripe old age, so I don't have to worry about it.
That is until today. I just bought my four year old two gold fish for Easter. Does this recall affect goldfish food? Hmm......

Gardening Time
It's getting to be that time of year, and I'm gearing up to start my garden this year.
My four year old and I started clearing out the weeds. Actually, they are only weeds if you don't want them. :-)
We had a family meeting and decided each of us could pick two items to plant in the garden. We ended up with Onions, cucumbers, water Mellon, broccoli, and asparagus. Yum!
If all goes well, I won't be needing to put those items on my grocery list. :-)
