This blog is about growing things in an urban environment and making things from other things that some people just dump in landfills. For the garden, for the house, for people I like.
I also like to post cool architecture, things about camping, cabins and campers and the very occasional political post....though I'd like to argue that growing your own food is, in itself, a political action.

I decided to harvest my fingerling potatoes this evening. I hadn’t planted new potatoes since last year. These grew from the old potato seedlings I left behind after my last harvest in 2012.
I added new soil and mixed it in with the old soil and then replanted some of the fingerling seedlings and added some purple potato seedlings I have had for a while waiting to plant.
Guess who’s having potatoes with dinner!! -

What do you do when you want a full size bathtub but don’t have the room in your tiny house? Put it on the porch! Ha. We picked up this vintage 50s/60s pink bath tub for $25! I’ve always loved the retro colored bathtubs so it was a good find. We have it all setup to take baths/showers and it is a pretty nice view looking out at the forest.
The bathroom will eventually go in the greenhouse/solarium but for now we are enjoying our porch baths!
So funny that they did this because I’ve been wanting to do this exact thing for ages now. I need a tub I can soak in!

I said last night to my girlfriend that I hoped that any photos the media were posting were actually of the right person/people because this is fucked up. You can absolutely ruin someone’s life. This is racial fucking profiling at it’s worst. I had hoped, and honestly still do, that the actual perpetrator of this crime was some crazy white dude. If this crime was in fact perpetrated by the Chechen brothers, one of whom is already dead, then all I can say is it is a real shame. Extremist Muslims continue to bring shame to the majority of Muslims who live peacefully all over the world. They bring shame to their families and perpetuate stereotypes, bigotry and racism.
Stop the violence.
