There has been a lot of debate recently in the gardening world around adding eggshells to the garden.
One of the arguments against it is that eggshells take years to break down.
I hopefully have years of gardening left. (grins)
I don’t approach the building of soil as a quick process. Heck, leaves takes two years to break down completely and they are AWESOME at building healthy soil.
Building great soil takes time.
Another argument is that eggshells can add bad stuff like salmonella to the garden.
I add eggshells at the END of the growing season. 4 or 5 or more months will pass before I plant in that soil. By then, the threat of salmonella is long gone.
I also place compost, a thick layer of leaves and some coffee grounds on top of the crushed eggshells (mostly to discourage Rocky The Raccoon from digging in the bed). That adds more barriers.
The benefits of crushed eggshells outweigh the downsides for me.
They are a great source of calcium and other nutrients. They are natural. The worms love them. Placing eggshells in the garden keeps them out of the landfill. And they are absolutely free.

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
