About 15 years ago I did a lot of IT work for the State of Kentucky. I always enjoyed my trips to Frankfort, and no visit was complete with out a stop at Famous Recipe Fired Chicken. Good stuff. Prefer it to the Colonel by a long shot. We grow a small garden, usually 8-10 tomato plants and 2 or 3 different peppers. We use the output to make home canned homemade salsa, tomato sauce, and diced tomatoes. We usuallly produce enough to can supplies that last about a year for us, just two people here. I grow green bell peppers, Hungarian banana peppers, and a special Jalapeno pepper. The Jalapeno is a variety that is from Texas that a fiend sends to me in the form of seeds. We also can green beans, but I just go buy a bushel from a local organic farm instead of growing them. We have a rabbit problem here, all the neighborhood cats have been declawed, so unless a coyote or a red fox sneaks in to the neighborhood, the rabbits have nothing to fear but me. Last year I trapped and relocated close to 30 rabbits. Funny thing, by late fall, when they are safe to eat, they seem to disappear. I use home made box traps, and then drive them out to a new field to live in. Regards, Brian --- WinPoint 400.2 * Origin: Ready for Springtime in Indiana (21:4/106.25) .
