It's Christmas day and I just got back from the in-laws with quite the haul. Every Christmas we go to my father in-laws house around noon and fix a big brunch. 25 people, bacon, sausage, french toast, hash browns, biscuits and gravy and EGGS lots of them. I brought 34 from my chickens at home plus we used a dozen of the tasteless ones from the store. I saved all the shells and will let them dry out. You can throw them right on the compost or crush them up and save them for when you plant your tomatoes, sprinkle a generous amount into the soil when you plant them and the calcium will help the plant resist disease and blossom end rot. Got a couple of filters full of coffee grounds too, good stuff called Jamaican Blue.
Anyway lots of presents and good times where had by all.
My son Joe and my sister in-law both have birthdays today so we do b-day party's today too.
The days are getting longer now since a few days ago so be thinking about what seeds you'll be starting indoors, a lot of varieties aren't sold in plant form at the local nursery and seeds are cheaper.
Merry Christmas everyone.
