She just started a blog about her experiences cooking fresh, gourmet and organic (http://jorjmorgan.blogspot.com/. ) I'll tell her about you and increase the readership. Thanks for blogging - it's good to see an active viral community in the cooking arts : )--Jen Hi Maria,

I am planting a veggie garden..keeping it organic, started heirlooms from seed inside..but perhaps the two things that we are feeling really good about are: Used milky spore on the lawn to kill grubs (the food stuff of voles/moles) and after 2 years it has multiplied enough to really make a difference in the mole population. AND this is the first time that I used corn gluetin on my lawn in early spring--it is so thick and GREEN..plus, since it keeps seeds from germinating...soon, no more dandy 'lions' :) This winter I purchased a red worm farm to make faster compost year long.

So many people rely on them all summer long and it's super important to thoroughly wash them in between uses. One thing is missing from your list- keeping coolers clean.

Last summer I discovered that Organic Coconut Oil is a natural sunblock. I spent hours gardening in the sun and did not get burned. The oil is amazing and my old age dry skin is beginning to improve. I use the oil every night on my face before going to bed too. You can find the oil in most health food stores and it is pure enough to cook with.

This is good stuff! I have used Cedarcide products on my pets and yard and the ticks and fleas stayed away. You may want to try the Ant Mound Drench for fire ants. They also make and sell bat habitats. http://www.cedarcidestore.citymax.com/GROUNDSPESTCONTROL.html

There are only four ingredients (cream, 1/2 and 1/2, sugar, and mint leaves--all organic of course), but man does it go down easy!
