Turban Scarves for Women’s Hair Loss

Back in 2006, when I had cancer, I lost my hair. This is an occurrence that happens to many women, and men too.

I’m not the type of person to wear a wig. So I decided to find something else to wear that would look attractive, be easy to use, and keep my head warm. I [...]

New Sun Shade for Tractor

We have a farm and run a produce stand. After much thought, DH has had a sun shade put on his tractor. We couldn’t afford a tractor with a cab and air conditioning, so this was the next best thing.

While it’s overcast today, you don’t get the full effect, but I’m sure you get the [...]

Great Dish Towels

For over a couple of years now, I’ve bought different kinds of dish towels – none of them have been very absorbent. Oh, I don’t use them to dry dishes – the dishes can stay in the dish rack until I’m ready to put them away!

No, my dish towels are what my DH dries his [...]

Another day on the farm…

We are in the midst of taking down the tents that we use for our produce stand. Actually there are 2 tens, 1 a 10×10 and 1 a 10×15.

The last few years, we have used the 10×10 – that I had bought when I was doing craft shows. It worked well, but the problem that [...]

A volunteer watermelon vine

If you have been reading my posts, you know that we have a farm and raise vegetables and melons to sell at our produce stand.

Every day, I go to gather the eggs, and I’ve been watching a volunteer watermelon plant growing.

We grow watermelon, and my DH loves to eat watermelon – and well, now you [...]

Ewww – a black and yellow spider

The other day, I went to gather the eggs and found this:

I tried to get close to take a good picture, and the dang spider started crawling all over – I backed up quickly!

This spider is called Black and Yellow Garden Spider, Writing Spider, Banana Spider or Corn Spider.

The web of the yellow garden spider [...]

Nature in the raw

You know, we have a produce stand.  Right now we are selling sweet corn, and watermelon – we’ve had lots of different vegis during the summer, but it’s kind of winding down for right now.

Anyway, I had a customer call this morning to pick up 100 ears of sweet corn. Many of our customers do [...]

My Storage Bldg is here!!

My workroom and closets – 2 of them – are filled to over flowing. As I expand Sandi’s T’s – adding new product lines, I’m at a loss where to store everything.

I’ve placed the rubbermaid containers of blank sweatshirts on the treadmill in the office. I’ll have to really get motivated, if I want to walk on [...]

Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Well, in our case it was the chicken. Actually about 30 of them – all different varieties, a couple of years ago. Since we run a produce farm, we decided to add the selling of fresh eggs as well. Brown eggs to be exact. Little did I know how much work was involved.

We watched those [...]

We have pumpkins!

Yesterday, my DH decided to check the pumpkins in the fields to see if they were ready to be gathered – is that the correct term – for sale. Actually he had checked the fields a couple of days ago, and the ground was too wet from the rain we received in the Nor’easter last [...]
