I was also part of a corporate lay-off earlier this year. I am divorced, so I have no other back-up income. I do understand -- more than you know.

Solar power to pressurize rain barrel water
Once you have a rain barrel, and it's collecting the water, how do you move the water to where it's needed? That's the question James Fisher from Peachtree City, GA asked himself. After hauling buckets and buckets of water to his
wife's flower gardens, he decided there must be a better way. Since he is a systems engineer by trade, he designed a solar-powered water pumping system that would pressurize the water so he could use it with his yard sprinklers and misting units. Then his neighbors aske… Continue

If you're craving fresh greens and horrifed by supermarket prices, why not grow your own? Nothing tastes fresher and sweeter than a spring salad just picked from your own windowsill or garden.The best time to harvest Mesclun is early in the morning before the sun is high; heat causes wilting. Start harvesting when the greens are two inches long, never letting them get more than six inches tall; use scissors to snip them off just above the growing crowns (about one inch above the soil level). This is called the cut-and-come-again method because the crop will grow back; if you water and lightly fertilize after harvesting, the greens should be ready for harvest again soon.What Is Kombucha?
