Urban Homesteading- Why Unwashed Eggs are Better
Urban Homesteading- Why Unwashed Eggs are Better
We are thankful that our county allows us to raise chickens (hens, not roosters!), even in a suburban neighborhood. We can have up to 6, and repurposed an old Tough Shed into a heated coop. We are grateful to have about 4 organic, free range, healthy, farm fresh eggs per day! Closeups of our beloved hen “family.”
Here are the differences between commercial washed and unwashed eggs~

current internet trends that make me want to rip someone’s hair out
the push towards “reclaiming your femininity” but it’s mostly based on physical appearance/biology/presentation
women younger than 25 celebrating how many children they already have/teens declaring how mature they are for already having kids
demonization of all forms of hormonal birth control (a result of the first point)
glorification of the sahm lifestyle/the joys of homestading
“there’s so much liberation to be found in modesty <33″
on top of that, the people in these kinds of videos are white nine times out of ten. i don’t even need to make the math

Gardening: hanging baskets for pollinators
Many hanging basket arrangements use bedding plants, which tend to be double-flowered, or are bred for long-lasting colour at the expense of nectar and pollen. This hanging basket display uses single-flowered bedding plants known for their attractiveness to wildlife, resulting in an attractive display that also provides food for bees and other pollinators.
Here, we’ve used conifer branches and lawn moss to line the basket. This not only has recycling value but provides hiding places for insects. The plants are widely available from garden centres – petunias and calibrachoas have blooms that attract moths, while verbena, lobelia and heliotrope are appealing to butterflies. The small white flowers of lobularia (sweet alyssum) attract tiny, beneficial wasps that help control garden pests, while bidens and diascias are great for bees.

i can’t be over crossover between dirk and wynonna.
i feel like dirk would love to hang out with wynonna and waverly, constantly making up names for purgatory division of his agency.
i also think (and i feel i’m not the only one) that amanda and bobo would get along very nicely. she would call him a creep for a while, maybe because of a furr coat. and he would put his coat around her shoulders, to protect amanda from the cold, but also to make her the creep.
farah and nicole would be good buds. sharing weird experiences and discussing all the weirdos surrounding them.
jeremy and todd would nerd out definetly. talk the weirdo boyfriends talk, share the moments when their defeated their fears and maybe argue about who’s the coolest: wynonna or amanda.
the rest rowdies would slowly but surely be everyone’s favorite. martin would be uncomfortable seeing amanda getting along with his weird twin, but everything will be alright. waves would be a first one to listen amanda and at least try to embrace guests to the homestad.
