Movie Monday is all about Memorial Day

Movie Monday is all about Memorial Day

Memorial day

 

Mondays at DCRG are usually movie review day.  However, with today being Memorial Day, I thought it would be appropriate to thank all the veterans and current military members as well remember those loved ones we have lost.

One among our holidays alone bears the name and the specific call to remembrance: Memorial Day.

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a post-Civil War holiday. It was first instituted by the Grand Army of the Republic, on May 30, 1868, “for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, hamlet, and churchyard in the land.

 

Grandma Edna’s Chicken & Rice for Tasty Tuesday

Grandma Edna’s Chicken & Rice for Tasty Tuesday

Tuesdays are probably my favorite blog day for the Dakota Carson Realty Group (DCRG) because it’s all about food.  Who doesn’t love food and a great recipe.  With Memorial Day behind us, I will start focusing on yummy summer recipes but today I wanted to share one of my family’s favorite recipes.  Dave’s mom, Edna, makes it for us and we absolutely love it.  (Disclaimer: I am typing the recipe exactly as Grandma Edna wrote it out)

Edna’s Chicken & Rice

Grandma Ednas Chicken and Rice for Tasty Tuesday

Thaw as much chicken as you want.  I buy the small boneless chicken tenders as they are easy to handle.

Roll them up and stick a toothpick through each one to hold them together.  Dip in beaten egg, a bit of milk and an ice cube.

Shopping with DCRG for the perfect plants -Part 3

Shopping with DCRG for the perfect plants -Part 3

Most successful gardens have foundation plants, trees and shrubs, and ground cover, along with perennials, annuals, and vines.  Over the next few weeks, we will walking you through step by step on how to create the perfect outdoor space for your home.  If you missed the last two weeks, be sure to check out the beginning steps on the past two posts.

Step 4 :Planning your perennials and annuals.

Perennials come back year after year, blooming for two weeks or even all season long, depending on the variety. They are more expensive initially, but save money over time. Annuals die after one year. They are less expensive than perennials initially, but must be replaced each year. A few begin blooming in late winter or early spring, but most bloom in mid-to late spring and provide color for months. A good local nursery will feature those that are easiest to grow in your region, but ask about sun, soil, and water requirements; how long it blooms; what the flower looks like; and any diseases or pests that threaten it. When choosing a perennial, also ask if the plant dies back in cold weather or, if not, what the foliage looks like throughout the year.
