Egg shells...

On the "blog tag" post, I had a question about why I am drying egg shells on my draining board. Well, if you wash them and roast them in the oven for a few minutes and crumble them up, you can put them around your plants in the garden and they act as a slug repellant. Sounds like a lot of hard work, right? So worth it if it keeps the little beasts away. Ew, slugs are the bane of my existence!

Do you remember that one night that I walked in the dark downstairs and killed a slug with my bare foot? Good times! Love you!
