aphids... easier to control.
WYR deal with alot of heat or lots of rain?

Heat - too much rain and you can't control diseases. Though I'm in a humid climate; I can see where folks who live in a dry area might have a different opinion.
WYR can or freeze? (By that, I am asking which process you'd rather do.)

Hmmm... for me, both, depending on which vegetable or fruit.
WYR pick your tomatoes in the coloring up stage or fully ripe?

YES! I do both so *flips a coin* . . . Coloring Would you rather have Peas or Sugar Snap Peas?

You cant eat flowers - so its veggies.
WYR take a nice, quiet nap, or sit under a tree on a warm day while sipping a cool drink?

Sit under a tree, sipping a cold drink, and reading a book!
WYR give up all fruit, or give up all veggies for a week?

Give up all fruit for a week as eating dinner without a vegetable in this house ain't happening... WYR buy your seeds from a catalog or from a big box store?

spike,- I don't know what "mucking out a barn" is, but if it's outdoor work, I'd rather do that than indoor work. Would you rather- grow many shorter sunflowers or less than five fifteen footers?

ha, ha, ha aqua , "mucking out a barn" is a polite way of saying removing what came out of the back end of large animals! It usually involves the use of a pitchfork or "muck" rake and a wheelbarrow while wearing boots! Are your SURE you would rather do that?

Fifteen Footers ( to annoy the Cardio Clinic people!) Would you rather go to any major store the day after Christmas or hand polish a full set for 12 of silver service that is elaborate and oxidized?

brownrexx,if I had the TIME and BARN and ANIMALS to muck out a barn, then I'd be thrilled to know that I was going to have an amazing garden with all the compost! Yes I think I could do that. I've never shoveled snow either but always wanted to try. Would you rather have one foot of snow, or one inch of ice?

I'll take a foot of snow any day over ice. Would you rather winter in PA and have a wind chill of 10 degrees or go visit aqua, in Florida for the winter?

I didn't this year, but I love shopping right after Christmas. It may be crowded, but it's definitely alive. Polishing silver? Not so much - unless I was about to sell it... so I could go shopping right after Christmas, lol. Would you rather watch an afternoon of the Kardasians, or muck out that proverbial barn?

One of the best brownie recipies I make is a salted caramel brownie, so both!
That recipe is not one of the easiest to make, and when I give the recipe to those who simply have to have it, they usually change their tune, and say that they'll keep letting me make them!

Is this the recipe you use? www.browneyedbaker.com/sweet-and-salty-brownies/I have dozens of treats and chocolates sitting around, but these are seriously calling to me. They look decadent.

@ladymamalade Thay looked almost identical to the recipe I remembered, so I went and looked, in the book I found it in - Baked Explorations. It is identical, maybe with a different amount of salt, or something like that, so they can't get her on a copyright thing, though I see so many things like this online, I think that they just don't worry about it!
Before I hurt myself, I was going to make either these, or a cheesecake brownie, from Maida Heater's Best Dessert Book Ever, to take to a Christmas dinner I had been invited to. I only make these kinds of things when there will be a lot of people to help me eat them.

Cake, definitely. I am always making smoothies, and I just saw a recipe in Milk Street for a Coconut Cashew cake, that I have to make sometime!

Rolls, but it's really close.
make a strict planning guide for your garden or wing it more or less?

Make a strict guide. Winging it has left me with failure.
Would you rather garden year round as in the deep south or have a real winter when nothing can be grown outside?

WYR
Scald a hog or trap a cougar?

Real winter helps with the bugs I think... Muck out the Barn. Most cats don't like a bath. He he, now if I had to do, was pitch him in the tub and run, I could do that. WYR Scald a hog or trap a cougar? Scald a hog as I know bacon is in my future... WYR rake your yard with a hand rake or pull weeds?
