The latest back yard project (Just Finished)

This one was a back breaker the patio is 60SQ FT at 42 pounds a block. The dirt area is 400 SQ FT and took 5 yards of pea gravel to fill. The hard part was moving the 5 yards off pea gravel from the front yard to the back by hand I wish I had a bob cat.





I think our new patio and play area for the kids turned out nice.

The best part is now have 460 SQ FT less of lawn to cut!

Sun Dryed Jalapeno pepper

The chives went so well I though I would try some Jalapeno pepper! I didn't get as much out of The Jalapeno peppers as I though I would. I think that's why people tie them up with strings to dry them and then crush them for the pepper, well lesson learned. It was still better to save them while they were good then having to toss them out once they went bad.

This is how they turned out.

Sun dryed Chives

I decided to try my hand at dehydrating some of my chives from my garden. I decided the best way to do it was to use a pair of scissors and cut the chives and then wash them after washing the chives I used the scissors to cut them in small uniformed peaces. I put the chives on a baking pan on the deck between the hours of 12pm to 3 pm that's when the sun is the hottest took about 2 hours.

this is what they looked like when they were done not to bad.
