Water
Water is this week’s header challenge theme. Not exactly in short supply around here this time of the year, falling or seeping out of the sky at a steady rate. But there are just a few places it needs to be delivered to. Like my flats in the Hippy Hot Hut. When I had the hanging … Continue reading
Oops
I haven’t stayed up all night in a long long time, I haven’t even stayed up super late in a long long time. Bet and I tried over Dirt’s Winter Break we got as far as twelve thirty, maybe almost one, it was near impossible. I did stay up ’til eleven minutes after one on … Continue reading
The End of A Season
The end of one season is tangled with the beginning of another. I don’t ever really put down my trowel and walk away from the garden. But there are times when I do a lot less that could be considered gardening. Now with my Hippy Hot Hut (greenhouse) the lines could become blurred even more. … Continue reading

After all if we were really hurting from the pay cut there are avenues for increasing the income. But things are not dire and we have instead decided to decrease our expenses. There … Continue reading
Betwixt and Between
This week’s Header Challenge theme was selected by Stewart, aka IMac. He said it was because we were betwixt and between Christmas and New Year. This was going to be a hard one for me, I get the in between the holidays thing, but really, our Christmas here at the Farm doesn’t end till January … Continue reading
The Day of Holy Innocents – Yesterday
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men. Then was … Continue reading
O Come, O Come Emmanuel
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. And what … Continue reading
The Light
The Light is Christ Jesus, whom God sent. And for most of us who believe in Him, this is the season we celebrate God’s greatest gift to all mankind, His Son, the Light, having come into this world as man. All of us here at Vicktory Farm & Gardens pray that you have an incredible celebration … Continue reading
