I really enjoy keeping up with your blog.<BR/><BR/>Julia, french drains sound far more exotic than they really are. Prefacing anything with the word french has that effect. Except maybe fries. Regarding the spider, there are bugs aplenty for him/her(?). I haven't actually seen the funnel spider eat, but the spiders that screen the porch tend to catch anything that flies. Except bats. Once a bat swooped right between the iron posts -- I've never seen one fly so low and so close. I believe, in that case, it was the spider that was caught.countrypeapiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10276399830149241673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671852854445112184.post-83301682733449302022008-09-20T03:16:00.000-05:002008-09-20T03:16:00.000-05:00White sauce is no problem, but I had to look up a ...White sauce is no problem, but I had to look up a french drain! I blame decades of apartment dwelling ;-). <BR/><BR/>I like the funnel, what is the spider's favorite food of choice?Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02381204473168533313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671852854445112184.post-40540212317599613602008-09-19T14:58:00.000-05:002008-09-19T14:58:00.000-05:00Regarding the cooked bacon, alas, it has come to t...Regarding the cooked bacon, alas, it has come to this and more. Ask the (wo)man on the street how to make a white sauce, build a french drain or gap a spark plug and my bet is you'd get a blank expression in response. I fear we've become a nation of fools. Present company excluded, of course. ;-)Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290239886604172167noreply@blogger.com
