Wild Edibles and Medicinals from A - Z

I will be adding to this list as time goes on.  Through reseach these are very common on roadsides and are many times concidered to be pesty weeds in yards through out the South East United States.  The Cherokee used many of these herbs for healing along with the Old Timers back in the days before modern medicine.  Enjoy!

Some-times… By Alana Tobin

Some-times…

By Alana Tobin

… words are an assault, even with the most loving of intentions – (words even care-fully considered) are as daggers...and attitudes of optimism and philosophical principles shared without respect for the pain… (whether inside ourselves or another), are as fruitless as planting seeds in cement...and as intrusive as a hypodermic needle shot into a wound…Lacking in empathy and compassion, even though our intent is one of promoting healing, we are ever so much all of us, encountering opportunities to learn the ways as to how we can genuinely care for ourselves and extend that caring to others.

Have you ever pondered about sharing abundance concepts to a homeless lady or man on the street, as if to assume they must not know about such laws or principles or about how they create their own reality, for surely if they did, they would not be homeless…And do you dare to ask your self what about this situation or person am I uncomfortable with here? And why do I feel the need or desire to effect change in this instance at all?….we don't even know their story...or how it is they came to be where they are at...

Straw Bale Gardening

As I have been traveling the internet in search of new and different ideas for gardening something popped up the other day that I just had to learn more about.  Straw Bale Gardening.  This is truly amazing and is an answer for all types of gardening for all kinds of people which is fantastic.  This allows a person to have a garden anywhere - yes I said anywhere.  It also allows handicap assessibility to a garden because it is raised which is magnificent.  Another positive is that you don't have to till up the ground, so those people who either do not have a tiller or do not have the strength to run one no longer have to worry about this.  OK, I also have another positive, due to the heat built within the bale of staw as it is decomposing it is a great greenhouse right in your garden.  All you have to do is put up a couple of fence posts, sticks, tree limbs or whatever else you may have and run some string.  Drape clear plastic over the bales like a tent and wah la you have your own personal greenhouse.  Once the night air is warm enough (around 60'sh) you can take off the tent at night and your plants will grow grow grow.  Oh yea, make sure that you pull the tent back during warm days or the plants could get to warm on warm days. 

I am so excited to try this, this is going to be a fun "Garden Adventure" this year.

Weezie's Chicken/Vege cheesy stix

Take chicken or leftover meat (about 1 ½ cups), chunk it up and put it in the food processor.

Add veges (leftovers are fine) make sure to drain them first and eyeball how much you want to use. I used tomatoes, green peppers, banana peppers, and onions that I canned last summer.

Add 2 eggs.

Spices of choice.

A couple hand fulls of cheese (I used moz, if I would have thought about it I would have added some parm in it also.)

Mix and chop in the food processor until it is somewhat smooth.

Add Italian bread crumbs until the mixture is rollable.

Roll out logs about dime size thickness.

Cut into 3 inch lengths.

Bake at 350 on a greased cookie sheet – I didn’t grease mine and they stuck.

I don’t know the amount of time as I didn’t keep up with it.

This makes enough where you can freeze them for later use.

 

For we adults they are yummy and would be good dipped in your favorite dressing.
