I’ve noticed a large challenge in keeping a garden blog is finding time outside the garden to actually write content for the blog. Maybe other garden bloggers have a plan of attack they wouldn’t mind sharing?

Content for today’s post is courtesy of Mom G’s August / September 2010 copy of Birds & Blooms magazine. Here’s a recipe created by Donna Hunt of Alabama for homemade suet for feathered friends that grace the garden.

• 1 cup lard
• 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
• 1 cup cooked oatmeal
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 cup crushed dried cereal
• 1/2 cup flower

The birds would probably even enjoy an addition of dried berries or a dash of different seeds. I’ll hand this over to my Other Half for further development.
