Today I stumbled across the documentary Grey Gardens. I only watched a few clips but it looks very interesting.
The Girl and I are planning on watching it tonight.
Have you seen it? What did you think?

You want to go straw. Besides being a bit cheaper, here’s the difference:
Hay: Hay is grown for animal feed and contains protein-rich seed heads that, when spread over gardens, sprout. They quickly grow plants that are difficult to control by either pulling or spraying.
Straw: Straw is the bottom half of hay stalks and contains few or no seed heads. Straw stalks are hollow and don’t compact or mat. They’re also slow to decompose and don’t tie up nitrogen or other nutrients in soil, making the perfect mulch.
This is what a friend of mine, who grew up on a working farm and still lives there now.My folks always used straw as well.
Put the straw vs hay in wrong one…oops. I’m really scatter-brained this week.
Yep, have seen this.
My husband saw it a long time ago and I believe he said it was very, very weird…
Awesome documentary…I’ve watched it a dozen times. Sad and thought provoking. Glad I’ll never be uber-rich!
Loved it. And love your blog, Mavis. You inspire!
Love this movie. Even when you see what squalor they live in, they still have that amazing ability to choose not to see how dire it all is.
