Spent a few hours yesterday cleaning the high tunn Spent a few hours yesterday cleaning the high tunnel out so it's ready to plant again. 
While it does keep frost off the plants and warms up nicely when the sun is out, it's still only going to work for cold hardy plants for at least another month or two since the night temperatures are still in the 20s.

I barely bumped this mug, and the handle busted. 😭
Any suggestions on the best way to fix it?
I really enjoyed participating in the Reshelving A I really enjoyed participating in the Reshelving Alexandria 52 Book Challenge during 2025. 

I read some books I absolutely loved, some that were okay, and some I didn't like.
Even if not every book I chose was amazing, I find that reading challenges stretch me, and I appreciate that. 

Top 10 favorites this year (in no particular order):
*We Were the Lucky Ones
*The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared (I feel the need to mention that this had a lot of cuss words, as well as murder)
*Beneath the Bending Skies
*Across So Many Seas
*Shattered Dreams by Irene Spencer (there are several books with this title)
*The Glass Castle 
*The Best Cook in the World
*A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (this was my favorite book in high school)
*The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane
*The Frozen River
