Annnnnnnnd…25 32-rd Uzi magazines later, we’re pretty much done with Uzi magazine supplies. A few spare parts and a threaded barrel are pretty much all that we need to round it off and put this baby away for Der Tag.

Its about that time of the year to start seedlings indoors here in Montana. Don’t blink or you might miss our growing season. I’ve been looking at seeds at this place for a few months. I just noticed they have a little survivalist seed package that is carefully devoid of any survivalist impressions.

I like to cook (actually, I hate cooking..I love eating) and I dream about having everything I need for my own salsa and pasta sauces growing right out in my yard. So I’ll be trying to do tomatoes, chilis, basil, oregano, cilantro, and a few other plants. In a perfect world I’ll be canning a couple dozen pints of tomato sauce and salsa later this year.

Perhaps this year I’ll photoblog the development of the greenery as it comes up.

Here’s a link to making seed-starting pots from newspaper. Mighty clever, and deliciously frugal.
