Enigma Uncensored

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Folks! You know what time of the week it is! It's time to saunter through our gardens and have a look at what nature with a little help from me has brought forth. As a reminder, I grow organically in Zone 9b year round. I started late in life and just began my fourth year gardening. I learned almost everything I know from Youtube, blog posts, and some gardening friends I've made along the way. Starting in the front yard, the lilies have bloomed! This is a swamp lily, scientific name Crinum Bulbispermum from the Amaryllidacaeae family from South Africa. We have these all over our front yard because they are super easy to maintain. In fact, I don't have to do anything and they reproduce new bulbs all the time. The roses bloomed and looked great, now the sun has bleached them to this interesting mauve color. The Pentas, another low maintenance plant, are also looking lovely. Harvest transition. I ate thes

 I hope all are well rested and ready to see the sights of our gardens! As a reminder, I grow organically, mostly in containers, in Zone 9B. I taught myself through Youtube. I've been gardening since the Spring of 2021. We're starting in the front yard. First up on our tour, the Striped Barbados Lily. Isn't she glorious, folks? Next, we should probably check in on the bananas While we're here, we should stop to smell the Star Jasmine. Intoxicating, isn't it? Let's have a look at the Pentas, shall we? The mulberry is bursting with fruit! Enough that we've already gotten two bowls full, and still need to pick more. I'm thinking of doing Mulberry liqueur this year, anyone want some? Moving to the backyard, while we're on the theme of harvesting. I harvested a bunch of Radishes and tomatoes Then, I pickled some radish, carrots, and onions for a nice little condiment. The sna

  Hi all, we had a rainy Friday and Saturday here in Floriduh, so I’m slow getting this week’s post out. Upon leaving AFF, I’ve made the decision to stop numbering these. We all know we’re here to see the garden, it makes no difference how long this tradition has been going on. Without further ado… Starting in the front yard, the mulberry is loaded and I mean loaded with berries Next up, sadly the first volunteer sunflowers of the year are not doing well. I think the ducks had a go at them, and they look diseased. But, have no fear new volunteer sunflowers are already popping up to take their place. Like this one And these The pentas are looking lovely as ever Just look how gorgeous the white and red ones look against one another Moving to the backyard, the Blackberries are coming in As well as blooming The beefsteak tomato plant has set its first fruit of the season The baby pineapple survived its first transplant And my potatoes are showing themselves, like the one in this bin And, t

 You can find his blog here:  https://frustratedman3392.blogspot.com/ Here's the master list of all bloggers. https://enigmainitiative.blogspot.com/p/list-of-bloggers-currently-with-blogs.html Please check out the tutorials page, including JN's instructions on how to add a gadget so people can get emails when you post something new. I did it and it's easier than you may think. https://enigmainitiative.blogspot.com/p/tutorials.html

 I'm happy to announce to you all that smarty has opened her blog here. You can find her at  Pleasesendmefree.blogspot.com You can find a list of all AFF Bloggers HERE: All Current AFFers

 Hi all We are starting with the first page when you get on Blogger. You click on whatever post you want to edit, like where I circled the "Untitled" post in the screenshot. This will take you to where you can edit your blog post, like you're seeing me do here to the "Untitled" post in the previous screenshot. Make whatever changes you want and click Publish. It will go live right away. I do want to use this post to talk about "Labels", which function as tags. It's how you tell search engines (if you want your blog searchable, see " Settings " tutorial) what your post is about. Since I want other bloggers to find us, I have a list of labels I use.  AFF, AdultFriendFinder, Adult Friend Finder, Lady Cat Lady, LadyCatLady, EnigmaInitiative, Enigma Initiative, etc. You get my point.  I suggest you use your screen names and blog names rather than mine. 😉 Always make sure you hit publish after you've edited something. And, you can edit it

 Alright, we're starting at the point where you're ready to write your post and want to insert a video or image into the post.  It's real simple.  Look at that bar above where you're typing away, do you see the buttons?  By clicking on the image button, a menu comes up.  Mine is linked to my Google Drive, so if your menu doesn't look like mine, that's why. Upload whatever you want. In this next screenshot is how you upload a video. This next screenshot will help you change the size of the picture or video you want to appear. Just Click the Gear circled. This screen will pop up, and the default setting seems to be Medium. I changed all mine to Extra Large, you do you. :) Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Add other AFFers Blogs to your Profile Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Reading List Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Add Followers Gadget Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Settings Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - How to Title Your Blog Posts Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial – How to Edit Your B

 I noticed our spunky didn't title his newest blog post. You can find him here:  Spunkycumfun .  So here's my tutorial on how to title a blog post. When you click on the plus sign that says "New Post", this is the screen that comes up.  Where I circled is where you put the title of your post. The X is where you put the body of your post.  Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Add other AFFers Blogs to your Profile Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Reading List Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Add Followers Gadget Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - Settings Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial - How to put Pictures and Videos in Your Blog Blogger/Blogspot Tutorial – How to Edit Your Blog Posts and Labels

 Most of the Settings are self-explanatory. There are a couple things I do want to point out. At the top part of "Settings" is where you can change the title and description of your blog if you like. Just click on what you want to change.  The next thing I want to point out is deciding whether or not you're going to show a warning if it's adult content. Mine is off, you do you. :D Finally, you will notice I scratched off my "Google Analytics Measurement ID. I am a nerd who likes that shit, I suspect most of you won't care.  Further down is another thing I want to point out, "Meta tags" I've allowed the search, as I want people to find me. You can see the terms I used. You do you. :) At the bottom of settings is where you can edit your profile if you like. Just click the link.

 As I said at the end of my last tutorial, this site does not send out emails or alerts when someone you follow puts up a new post. Apparently, they used to but used to doesn't help us.  The way I have circumvented that is to populate my "Reading List" with all your blogs. I will walk you through how to do the same. Starting on the same starting page, you are going to scroll down the left side until you get to "Reading List" that I have circled. When you click "Reading List" it will take you to a page that looks like this but may be empty if you haven't started yours. Click on "Manage" circled on the pic This page will come up, then click "Add" circled on the pic. This box will pop up Here is the list of blogs that I have so far. If I have missed you, don't hesitate to contact me. Lonly https://lonlyforlove2.blogspot.com/ Hippie https://easytobehard0.blogspot.com/ JN https://jnsjottings.blogspot.com/ SubwithBrains htt
