How's the F&F and W&T?
 
Today with my Usual Lamb and a Case for Stockman Sunday.
Going to BBQ some Ribs and Tri-Tip for a party later this evening.
For now, I'm going to relax and watch some football... Go Hawks!

Love that picture and the ribs and tri-tip sounds fantastic. Enjoy and Go Hawks! 👍
Heckuva windy day yesterday, but sunny and calm today -- perfect day for my walk with Seamus... :)

Have a good day, everyone!
Beautiful knife and pup! 😎👍
Sorry for the second post, but here’s a little garden update.View attachment 1700292Here’s what’s left:
In ground beds~ some very stunted lettuces that aren’t growing, but aren’t dead, a 30 x2 ft row of arugula that I’m going to trample flat for green manure mulch, a few baby beets planted in October after pulling my onions, which escaped my intended final harvest-it was getting dark- and are remarkably still alive.
Carrots. I’ll just leave them be because their deep roots are great for worm and microbe food. Incidentally, the much maligned dandelion is good for that. Their deep roots help loosen the soil, insects and microbial life break them down, and fungal life is able to bring minerals to plant roots. Plus, dandelion is about as nutritious as anything one can grow, and is good raw in salad.

Raised beds~
Spinach, which I figured was done, so I cut at the base for salad. Bunch of new growth from the crowns... If I were to leave them be, those crowns would immediately start growing after snow melt, and would be my first garden produce of next season.
Kale. Getting tired of it, may chop it up for the compost piles.
Leeks. Good Lord, leeks. Guess I’d better open some of those quarts of stock I canned last month and make more soup?
Green onions, like this one. Pretty soon, I need to pull these and get them into the refrigerator.

I plan on dismantling the raised beds to extend some of the in ground beds.
The material from the raised beds, stone blocks and 2x10s, is going to make one long raised bed in which I’m going to plant a mix of annual and perennial herbs, both for cooking, as well as to attract pollinators and predatory insects which will help keep pest insects from eating my food.
Thanks for reading, if you made it this far...:rolleyes:
Great update Jeff. Your “Garden Talk” is inspiring. I’m going to have to find a sunny spot around this place. ☀️👍
It was a lot of fun.

I’m actually away with my wife again this weekend. I brought a TC Barlow along on the trip. It’s a rainy morning today as we get ready to head home.

Yesterday we went on a hike in the redwoods.

Those trees are magnificent Bart, one day I hope to see them up close and not just in pictures. 😊👍

How's the F&F and W&T?

Thanks! F&F is excellent, W&T is good and I figure it’ll be even better after I’ve washed and oiled it. For $9.99 plus shipping I’m not complaining. By the way, the main blade is longer than it looks in that photo - I was holding the knife at an angle and the wide angle lens on my phone camera distorted it. Here’s a better view:
