Hi Hi! I have a show THIS Thursday 9PM at the Camellia Lounge, on NW 10th and Glisan. I hope you can make it, it's one of my favorite venues in town!

Looks like the ol' abode is coming along great! Yay!
Re: potatoes--the only way i've ever grown them is by throwing a couple of sprouting ones into a bale of compost. They say only to use "seed" taters because of a possible potato blight disease, but i'd just make sure not to use the same soil for growing nightshades again.
Re: peas for Bunbun--i'm sure she'd love them! Would she eat the sprouts before the plants have a chance to get big, though?
All peas want is sun but cool temps, good dirt (coat seeds in inoculant before planting), and a sturdy trellis.
P.S. I want to stick my face right into that wascally wabbit's bellyfur, she looks so cuddly. Think she'd mind? My fuzzies sure don't like it. Jerks.
Thanks for befriending THE DIRT! Everything on your page here=YES! Way to go, M3! Any advice for folks like me who have no money but want to buy a house? Rent sucks. I'm sure mortgages suck, too, but at least if I owned my home I'd be able to rip out a wall or ALL of the lawn if I wanted to.
