My honey has been wanting a greenhouse for years. I wasn't to thrilled about the idea, mainly because when I think of a greenhouse, I think of big panes of glass! Sounded dangerous, if a greenhouse sounds dangerous. LOL Well, he searched the net for ideas, plans, prices. Finally he came up with one that was made from pvc pipes, plastic sheeting and wood.....hmmmmmmm..........well that sounded do-able!! And it was! So instead of $500 for a kit, we were able to do one for less than $100. Well, the "we" part of that wasn't really true. It was all him! He got the plans online, got all the supplies, and made his greenhouse. He spends hours out there. Loves it!!
The only problem we've come across is getting the plants in early enough to be able to put in the garden to harvest early enough before the frost. Next spring, we will have to get the seeds in earlier. I believe this winter we will be coming up with an idea to heat it safely and economically.

Here is a recipe for lava cakes. Very easy, but people will think you are a gourmet cook!!!!!!
LAVA CAKE RECIPE!!!! Legend has it that this chocolate lava cake was the result of a major culinary disaster. The dessert was meant to be individual chocolate cakes, but a cook took them out of the ovens to soon, and the centers where still liquefied. Since there was no time to cook them further, the Chef simply introduced the dessert as chocolate “lava” cake! Makes 4 Chocolate Lava Cakes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
5 tbsp butter
3.5 oz dark chocolate (this is one standard chocolate bar, I use chocolate chips)
2 extra large eggs
1 extra large egg yolk , I just use 3 eggs
3 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp flour
2 tsp cocoa powder
pinch of salt
powdered sugar as needed
Preparation:
Melt the butter and chocolate together over a double-boiler, or microwave for a short time. Stir to combine. Whisk together the eggs and sugar until the mixture is light yellow in color, and the sugar is dissolved. About 3 minutes. Stir the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and whisk until combined. Sift in the flour, cocoa, and salt. Fold in with a spatula until combined. Spoon into 4 buttered 5-oz ramekins (I use the large muffin tins), and tap on the table to settle any air bubbles. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place ramekins or tins in a baking dish and add water until it is halfway up the sides. Bake for 15 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm. The cakes can be turn out.
