“Pickled” Weeds

Family

ngredients:
1 Driveway full of weeds, preferably young and tender
1 Gallon White Vinegar
1 Squirt Dish Detergent
1 Sunny Day
Mix the vinegar and detergent in a spray canister. Use to spray on the leaves of the weeds in the driveway (or mulch bed, or in between stones in the sidewalk). Then wait patiently for the vinegar to “pickle” (or kill) the weeds. May repeat once or twice at weekly intervals if necessary. Also useful for killing the green algae that grows in shady areas on the deck and north wall of the house. (Wish we’d known about this back in the Woodlawn days when we regularly rented a pressure washer to clean the brick sidewalk out front.) it’s effective, inexpensive, easy, and environmentally friendly!

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
