OASIS FORUM Post by the Golden Rule. GoldTent Oasis is not responsible for content or accuracy of posts. DYODD.

Our IT person decided not to support the Tent anymore. If you looked up Goldtent.com on Google it leads to a joke of a homepage and then if you click on the “forum” it goes to a “This page can’t be displayed” error message. It’s been this way for several months. If you didn’t have the old link then you were out of luck.

I’ve been giving away okra, tomatoes, jalapeños, 3 kinds of squash, green and wax beans, and very soon, watermelons. I would have started earlier but winter just wouldn’t leave.

im getting tired of the weeding and rototilling. The disc may come before the frost. All the wildlife that suffered during the extended drought seems to be making a comeback. I especially am anxious to see how the bobwhite quail recover. They were really decimated. The wild hogs and whitetail deer seem to be impervious to the weather.

I’ll have a big piece of zucchini bread in our honor!

I’m that tadpole!

Course I had an epiphany when no one responded to my MH17 theories. I thot everyone was out buying canned food.

Thanks to Equise for confirming my inkling

In the letter, you wrote that the situation at the old site was “preventing PP from future growth as it has been for many months isolated from internet usage for new posters.” What does that mean, “isolated from new posters?”

Farmboy, the idea of a tomato pie is kinda scary to me, but I appreciate the suggestion. Does it taste like tomatoes??

Catch some Zzzzz’s Nemo, but you have coffee duty in the morning. 🙂

Goldcountry, I would love to drop by your kitchen and lend a hand. Speaking of pies, I tried this one a few weeks back and was quite surprised how good it was. It’s a keeper recipe in my book. I had never heard of a Tomato Pie. I wanted to freeze a couple to eat this winter when my tomato cravings can get severe. But I cant keep one on the kitchen countertop long enough to get it to the freezer. (grin)

Tomato Pie in Flaky Pastry Crust

No no that’s not sad it’s great! Very early for this location. Some years the summer’s so cool we get hardly any at all and those in August or so. I’m looking forward to drowning in tomatoes and my friends and neighbors are going to be lucky as well. 🙂

PS This early bearer is a “Stupice.” Very nice tasting tomato.

Welcome to the Oasis!

Skoal!

Now that’s pretty sad. I am so sick of tomatoes and drying and canning them that I want to rip up my plants! I’m giving them away to neighbors and every delivery person or mailman I can catch. I’m not kidding.
And peaches, oh my.
Farmboy, will you please stop by and help me make some pies?

……just wanted to say hi!!

Welcome to the Tent!

We timed the opening to match up with a major rise in the PMs. Doncha know! 🙂

There’s some weird weather going on. We just had 10 day stretch with highs over 80. Most days in a row over 80 since 1977. Wearing jackets in July in OK … that’s crazy!

Picked my first tomato yesterday. Gonna be a great year for tomatoes.

Thanks for the  welcome …. And for the lead several years ago to that historic hotel ( Casa Marina ? )  , which my late wife enjoyed immensely – she was a history buff , so the Flagler connection was right up her alley . Just a few months later , the grim reaper snatched her away , suddenly .  Some day I hope to return .

Still gettin’ the hang of the dashboard–it doesn’t like my old browser much. But the hard drive on my desktop died the other day, so we make do as we can. Anyway, place looks great, can’t wait to figure it all out.

Sounds like the cook left the sugar out. Yeah, rhubarb can make ya squinch your eyes, and pucker up like a green persimmon.

This recipe called for a whole cup of sugar and I counted every grain to be sure not to leave even one out.

And Ice Cream…well, what doesn’t go with ice cream. Even in the middle of July with your jacket on, a man has got to have his ice cream.

But I am really appreciating this break in the heat. Yep

Might as well pull up a chair and listen to a little guitar. Good to have you join us old friend.

Oklahoma set record low temps today and rain. Wearing jackets in Oklahoma in July! I hope Eqiz doesn’t get too close to the fires.

Wish I was around earlier say 2 o’clock when Oasis launched. That rocket taking off…awesome.

150 fires! Holy Cow! I hadn’t heard you guys were having problems. We’ve got fire problems too … in E. Washington but I don’t think there’s 150!

I hope you enjoy the Oasis. It’s pretty much like the Tent. I guess you read the letter and know why we’re here. The Tent had an unknown expiration date on it that we don’t have to worry about anymore.

Cheers

I had just graduated high school in 1966 and set off on a harvest crew headed north. Toward the end of wheat harvest, we were in Kildeer, North Dakota, where a farm wife had fixed a big lunch for us. When the dessert arrived, I was surprised to see purple celery in the cherry pie. I wasn’t real sure what I was eating so I waited until the locals shoveled in huge bites. They seemed to enjoy it so I had a bite as large as the fork would hold. I was sure that pie was half alum by the way my cheeks collapsed!

That rhubarb stuff is definitely an acquired taste. By the third bite, I had it down. One big bite of pie and a bigger bite of vanilla ice cream.

fire-fighters to British Columbia to help us with the approximately 150 forest fires in progress here.  I would be delighted if you could just send us some rain, without lightning, from your south end of the Puget Basin.  Cheers.
