SOME LITTLE TIPS

EGGS KEEP BEST RAW AND AT 45 DEG. OR COOLER (NOT FROZEN) KEEP FOR WEEKS
WILL NOT KEEP AS LONG IF YOU HAVE COOKED

FOR YOUR ADDED SAFETY IT IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA TO WASH EGGS AND MELON BEFORE YOU CRACK OR CUT OPEN

AS THE SHELL ON THE EGG PROTECTS FROM GERMS GETTING INTO THE EGG - ONCE YOU CRACK IT YOU ALLOW THE ANY GERMS TO INTER THE EGG
SKIN ON THE MELONS - PROTECTS GERMS FROM COMING INTO THE FOOD PART YOU EAT -- ONCE YOU TAKE YOUR KNIFE TO CUT IT YOU BRAKE THE SKIN AND DRAG ANY GERMS IN WITH YOUR KNIFE

BEST TO HAVE YOUR SOIL AT LEAST 60 DEG. TO PLANT
MOST GRASS AND PLANTS NEED THAT WARM TO GET STARTED
DON'T FORGET WE ARE IN OHIO
NO MATTER HOW WARM AND GREAT THE WEATHER IS WE HAVE HAD FROST AND FREEZES AS LATE AS MID JUNE
RULE OF THUMB - SAFEST IS AFTER END OF MAY

SPRING IS HERE
