Waiting for Winds of Winter

Yes, I am a fan of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire, as well as the show Game of Thrones. I try to be patient by rereading the books, but I'm having a hard time waiting to find out what is going on. All of the fan theories are interesting and I poke around fan sites about once a week to see what people are talking about.

I ordered the seeds for the garden last night. I had a few last minute items to add on. My husband was concerned that we wouldn't have room for all of the items, but I pointed out that we'll only have a few of each plant. I'm interested in trying the hubbard squash, but we'll likely only have 1 or 2 vines. The same is true for pie pumpkins. The majority of the garden space will likely be for tomatoes, lettuce, and cucumbers. I'm excited to make pickles, so we'll need to grow quite a few cukes.

I've been searching for more information on backyard chickens lately. I'm hoping I'll find a good book on the subject. It seems strange to need a lot of information of raising chickens when people had their own backyard chickens just 50 years ago, but no one in my generation seems to know anything about raising poultry.
