With the purchase of our new cookstove, we've been trying to think of a way to use it to heat the little bathroom floor (they'll be on opposite sides of the same wall.) I hadn't thought about shower water! My Sweetheart does have a 5 gallon water reservoir, so that will be useful. <br /><br />The stollen looks delicious! And about the rosehips, I read somewhere they're sweeter after a frost (??)Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698697238692601738.post-88050519303651006232010-12-06T05:31:39.346-08:002010-12-06T05:31:39.346-08:00yes, in some ways it's going back to the past ...yes, in some ways it's going back to the past - but on the other hand I figure that we're still far better off than many people! we have enough food and water and warmth - having some additional jobs to do isn't that bad:)) makes you appreciate things more, when we're back to normal! <br />we are promised a thaw for the end of the week - and I hope you'll manage to keep most of your plants safe during the cold spell!Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698697238692601738.post-30962752400299682452010-12-05T11:15:38.647-08:002010-12-05T11:15:38.647-08:00Wow, you are roughing it!

We are preparing for a very useasonal cold snap this week-bringing in tons of the plants and covering up those that we can't bring in! Hoping this will be the coldest week and then more temperate weather will prevail!Delighted Handshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01289187765260532813noreply@blogger.com
