The ladders is cool!

Love this! Using them to grow up is a great way to grow up and provide interest. Cinderblocks can be fantastic in the garden. We used them to build a raised U-shaped bed and applied mosaics. It was a fun family project and looks fantastic! (You can read about it here: http://growandresist.com/2010/03/04/whimsical-raised-beds-make-them-now/)

The Dervaes have been doing a lot of backpedaling, providing misinformation and pulling down of statements they have previously made.
I personally take issue with the use of the word homestead in current day due to historical implications, however to trademark a way of being, a lifestyle and/or action is ludicrous. A land grab if I ever saw one.

My post on the week #1 assignment is up a bit late, but I'm pleased with the progress. The fridge/freezer were definitely my problem areas.
