Good morning guys. We hope this finds everyone in good spirits and health. We appreciate you stoppin' back in to visit with us today. Well, the goal of getting everything in the greenhouse and grow areas ready for replantin' is finally beginning to pay off for us. Good night a livin'…I sure had a mess.
Time had been in short supply and I was “learnin' the ropes” in how to be…a housewife! If I ever state that I’ve started “paintin' up my toenails” some, please call 911 for me. I’d be in DESPERATE need of serious professional help! LOL! You take into consideration my normal duties and chores, put into the equation the added chores of housecleanin', washin' clothes and dishes, not to mention “secretarian” as well, and dad-gum, my dern plate got full in a hurry. I already knew it before, but now I fully understand…that dern Deb was a workin' Trojan!

As I’ve said prior, I was havin' a hard time regulatin' my time. I was busy as a “13 petered weasel” (sorry, I couldn’t resist the expression), but for the life of me I just wasn’t getting anything accomplished. I had 40-11 projects in progress yet couldn’t seem to finish even one. Once more, thanks to two of our grandsons…I’m ahead of the game now. For how long remains to be seen? LOL! The greenhouse is ready for plantin'. Matter of fact I believe I have about 140 beets or so in the ground, some radishes, only 4 pepper plants (they’ll cover me up for my own use), and a few herbs. These are stevia, lemon basil, basil, oregano, and cilantro. Gave up on my “white horehound.” Yep, it really is a herb, and that really is its name. When I purchased the seeds Deb thought I was crazy. Actually the only reason I bought them was it is supposed to be good for coughs. More...

‘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!
