Tomatoes in the garden will ripen faster if you pinch out the tops of the plants and remove any growth below the lowest fruits. Also, remove new flowers to allow the existing tomatoes to fully ripen. Happy eating!

Blocking can be an art or sewing term, but let's use it for physical activity. The American Heart Association suggests 150 minutes a week of moderate-to-intensive activity. That means you need to block out 20 minutes a day. If you are better suited to every-other-day workouts, plan to set aside an hour each time. Here's to a healthier YOU!
Last spring's wool slippers (or gloves) can't really go in the washer, but there's an easy way to keep them fresh. Sprinkle baking soda inside, set them aside for 24 hours, then shake them out. Stink-o gone-o!!
Early September still gives you time to brighten up your bedding areas. Zinnias and was begonias are great. Bulbs such as elephant's ear, calla, narcissus, and zephyr lily can also be a good addition. Diggers, begin!
Yes, you can still plant in your garden in September. Lettuce, spinach, chard, kale, and spring onions and cabbage. Your harvest will come in the spring, and you'll be glad you did!
