| Tip of the
day A sunflower "house"
can be quite a summer delight. Pick a spot in full sunlight and plant a 6' x 9'
rectangle of sunflower plants.. leave a door opening. Dig a trench several
inches deep on the outside of the plants for irrigation.
With each sunflower seed, plant a seed of morning glory. As the sunflower
grows, the morning glories should wind up the stalks.
Soon you'll have a bee attracting spectacle of yellow and blue.
Once the sunflowers reach 4-5 feet tall, lace string loosely back and forth between the
sunflower stems. The result will look like a spider web.
The morning glories should climb across the string, creating a roof for the house.

Little known facts
Caramel and Butterscotch are made in
similar ways to toffee, as is fudge. The difference is in the degree of boiling
temperature and the ways in which they are cooled. This whole process uses high-heat to
convert sugar. Crystallization, graininess, and whether it is brittle or smooth are simply
variations of this process.
