Hello, and welcome back to Coverin’ the Bases! We hope everyone is fine, and the world’s treating you as good as can be expected. Thanks for dropping back in to see us today! You guys are great! Alright, let’s talk about a subject I’d never heard of before, until the last couple of weeks. Again, I know a little about having a garden, and keeping it up, but good Lord, I literally had no idea the number of different kinds of gardening, that are out there.

I told her if that was the case, then I’m a dern Tyrannosauras Rex, by George! Deb’s response…”Yea, right!” Anyway, without going into our family business in more depth, let’s get back on track here this morning, and talk about our original topic…the wide varieties of gardening techniques.

‘Ridin Out The Recession With Dub and Deb in “Miz Judi’s Kitchen’!

Note to Readers: There are a few things that Dub doesn’t know but one thing he does know is that the word ‘Riding’ (as in Riding Out the Recession) is spelled with a ‘g’ at the end.  But Dub not only walks the walk, but speaks like he is: down home, true blue, and plain speakin’ country folk.

Dub and Deb are both native Floridians, live in Central Florida, and run a small business as well. They have five children, and seven grandchildren.

Both love to cook, love to laugh, grow a garden, and generally try to “aggravate” most anyone around them basically…all in good fun, of course!
