    Maybe it is time for you to find that non-Farmville village and move off the farm.
    You cannot possibly have time to ride, work, post on TE and build your little rural empire! Something has got to go.
    You know, you can hide all those quizzes and games, just mouse over on the right hand side and you should get a "hide whatever" buttons. You only have to do this once for each game/quiz.

    Of course, I don't play any kind of games, whether it's on the computer or board games, or cards. I can't sit long enough and also apparently my brain doesn't work in ways that allow me to strategize in games.
    I agree with you Crankin. I don't understand it and have blocked all games and invites from my Facebook page. I love to play games, cards, craps--you name it--on occasion but can't understand spending hours each day tending my garden. And really hate it when it clutters up my Facebook page when someone gets a purple cow or ugly duckling on their farm. Guess I'm just a grumpy neighbor!

    thank goodness I have an urban farm of sort.

    We are still eating veggis out of our garden. We are still getting tomatoes, beans, lettuce, herbs (basil, thyme, oregano, cilanro, parsley both curly and itallian...) Beets are almost ready to be picked...

    Getting bit tired of chinese long beans though. They just keep growing and growing.
    still gots eggplants, bell peppers, serrano chillis, jalapenos...

    Purple broccholi and regular are growing big. parsnips are growing. garlic and brussel sprouts are growing too.

    Just recently scored on Crocus Sativus (the real McCoy SAFFRON) and Laurel Nobilus (true bay leaf). Traded some of my cookies for several bushels of pommogranates. Made over gallon juice and whole bunch of jellies. Still have well over a bushel...

    Will be planting lima and fava beans. and transplanting celery.. oh we still have one water mellon left on the vine.

    I was really amused the few days before Halloween. An older lady came by with her grand daughter in tow. She asked us if we had any pumkins growing. She wanted to show her granddaughter a pumpkin on a vine and how it grows... so cute. Next year I may plant baby bear pumpkin (eating kind not lanern).

    Dealing with aphids, powdery mildew, cabbage worm, harlequin beetle...

    So nope no need for a video game when I've got the real thing on small scale.
