Are your garden veggies ready to harvest? I have a helpful tip for you today. Schedule your vegetable harvest to occur in the early mornings – this is when your vegetables contain the most water content since it’s cooler, which means less moisture will have evaporated from the plants. Morning-picked veggies contain up to 30% more moisture than ones harvested later in the day, which makes a huge difference. You can also pick your crops in the evenings, which yields a similar outcome. Steer clear of harvesting between 10 a.m. and 4 pm, which is the hottest time period of the day.
The amusement operator has given the green light for the joke of the day to go on air. It’s called “The Pregnant Feeling.”
In order for the husbands to develop some empathy for their partners, the female childbirth instructor had the men participate in a simulation:
“OK everyone, we are going to do an exercise now. We have here what’s called a pregnancy suit. This imitates the feeling of being pregnant. Which husband volunteers to be the first one to try it on?”
Landen volunteered and said:
“I will.”
He put it on and said:
“Well, this isn’t too bad… I think I could get used to this.”
“OK, now I would like you to bend down and pick up my pen from the floor.”
“You want me to pick it up? Just as I would if I was pregnant?”
“Yes! Yes!”
Landen turned to his spouse and said:
“Honey, do you mind picking up that pen for me?”
