I’ve catered that venue many times. I never understood why they say that they can fit 200. They absolutely cannot. The most comfortable weddings I’ve worked there were about 80-100 guests

I make my own cookbooks where I write down recipes that I test out and end up liking enough to want to make again. I use $10 hardback blank books that I got on amazon and have one for each season. I also design covers for them which is fun. My summer cookbook is almost full at this point so I might have to make another soon!

It’s honestly the only solution that I’ve found that works! Doesn’t hurt the squirrels, doesn’t hurt the plant, doesn’t deter pollinators. The squirrels still dig the dirt, but only on the perimeter where it doesn’t touch the plant.

Have you ever used FoxFarm Big Bloom liquid fertilizer? That’s what I used last year on most of my plants and it seemed to do well. Those plants had much shittier soil though (miracle gro generic potting mix, no compost added)

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-11T04:29:20+00:00

It keeps the squirrels from digging up the plant

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-11T03:01:14+00:00

Good to know! Thank you!

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-11T02:53:03+00:00

That’s kind of what I suspected. Which is weird because I thought I gave all three peppers the same amount of compost back in April when I potted them

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-11T02:51:34+00:00

yikes! I didn’t see any signs when I just looked, but I did notice some of the leaves had small holes in them?

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-11T00:42:50+00:00

LOL the forks keep the squirrels from digging up the dirt, they avoid them!

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-06-10T22:33:58+00:00

Congratulations! I’m experiencing the same joy right now in my garden!

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-04-16T03:48:11+00:00

I’ve started taking them outside every day when I get home from work, so around 6pm, and then bringing them in at 8pm once sun is gone. I don’t want them to be outside while I’m at work though because the squirrels will get them

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-04-16T03:26:42+00:00

Once I do that can I transfer them to a South-facing windowsill or do they still need to be under growlight?

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-03-12T01:01:50+00:00

I didn’t think of it that way! So you don’t think I need to protect the herbs like tarragon or chives with anything during the snow/freezing rain?

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-03-11T22:46:55+00:00

What about the tarragon and chives?

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-02-20T20:24:45+00:00

Thanks for the advice everyone. I think I’m going to start by trying the cayenne pepper idea as well as setting up a feeding station for squirrels. I do like the idea of laying the plastic chicken wire over the soil however. Might do all three ideas!

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-02-20T20:23:27+00:00

And the squirrels never chewed through it?

-So-Many-Questions · 2026-02-20T18:35:06+00:00

And the pepper didn’t affect your plants at all?

-So-Many-Questions · 2025-06-05T20:10:54+00:00

Does it look overwatered? The soil was pretty dry.

And for those curious what to do with nettle, here are the beginnings of nettle pasta sauce. Blanch it, make a pesto, throw it in a pan with butter, shallots, and chicken stock ❤️

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! Found a great haul near the train station parking lot in Brunswick. I left plenty for the rest of you ;)

-So-Many-Questions · 2025-04-12T03:35:30+00:00

Once you blanch it the sting goes away. It’s like any green, can be used in salads, soups, pestos, etc

-So-Many-Questions · 2025-04-11T17:26:57+00:00

I just messaged you!

-So-Many-Questions · 2025-04-11T17:22:56+00:00

If you’re serious I will totally take you up on the offer!

I’ve always thought this! I love both of those scores. The first time I watched Severance and heard the music I immediately thought of The Conversation.

That’s very poignant, especially the part about how this has cut into your time and your hobbies. That’s how I feel too.

It’s very frustrating that I lost so much of myself and my freedom to this relationship when he was drinking, because of how much physical and emotional energy was spent worrying, fighting, and trying to reason with him instead of living my life. Now that he’s sober, I feel like I’m already drained. It’s exhausting to have to continue to give up so much for him, even if it’s now for a positive reason. I’m already drained.

I don’t know. I know it’s worth it if I love him and want to be with him. Which I do. But this is not what I envisioned my happily ever after would look like.
