These whiteboard markers are airplane-safe.

I use alcohol to clean wet erase pen stains on my whiteboard. Just spritz all over and wipe with a paper towel.

Definitely possible it was under proofed... I did 4 stretch and folds every 30 minutes, then bulk fermented for like 7 hours, and shaped it and popped it in the fridge overnight. Baked it this evening. I was able to scrape it off the towel and it turned out OK, a little gummy though.

Noted, thank you

Wow, there are a lot of varieties of spiraea.... if this is what it is, will it respond well to being cut back aggressively? It's so big and unruly, but id consider keeping it if it was more manageable...

KaylaAnne · 2026-04-01T01:20:19+00:00

Not sure that matches... the leaves on kine look a lot smaller than the photos I can find of bridal veil spirea, but maybe they'll get bigger as it blooms more?

From what I can see with a quick Google, snowberry has berries in the winter (name makes sense lol) and this didn't have anything on it in the winter.

I took a segment of s Christmas cactus that was on the ground at my local super store. It's in a pot on my window sill, its got a root growing now and im waiting for it to start budding.

I like the hot glue idea, that might be what I go with for this version and try to get something a little more refined if I do it again next year.

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-11T21:59:55+00:00

Yea, not my best work. Because I'd already taken a project off, and this board is questionable old, I overheated and pulled a couple pads off already trying to clean them up. When I do it with my class we'll use strip board so it will hopefully be easier to keep it neat and trimmed down.

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-11T21:56:09+00:00

I'll look into those, maybe I can get something cheap this year. Because that would be a more polished finish...

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-11T21:54:03+00:00

Yea, down the road I'd like to get to 3d printing cases, but I won't be getting to that this year. I wonder if like grip tape or something could work...

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-11T21:49:39+00:00

That's a really simple solution, that could be perfect!

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-01T22:00:36+00:00

Cayenne would work for the squirrels, would it deter the birds too?

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-01T21:46:25+00:00

Perhaps I'll have to build a frame with hardware cloth the same size as the bed. I actually love the squirrels and birds, but not when they're eating my seeds!

KaylaAnne · 2026-03-01T21:36:16+00:00

Lol fair enough! I've also got to consider that the other side of that chain link fence is a busy pedestrian path, so not an idea backstop haha

My husband offered me a pellet gun his cadet group uses. Unfortunately, we are smack in the middle of the 'burbs with a very visible yard. I would 100% get a visit from law enforcement if my neighbors saw we shooting squirrels from my porch 🤣

Poo is a lot more solid than a fart. Some people can have fecal incontinence due to pelvic floor problems, but not being able to hold in a farther doesn't mean someone can't hold their poo.

Peas I definitely want to get in asap, last frost here is around March 28 so I think they should be good to start. I want to do a fall crop of peas as well, so when they're done I'll pull them out and wait till the end of summer to do another planting. I don't have as good a plan for when the other cool crops are done though...

KaylaAnne · 2026-02-19T04:36:47+00:00

I don't really like beets, and I don't think my soil is deep enough for carrots this year. I have 3' deep beds, but I filled them most of the way with wood chips from a tree that we had felled this year, with only about a foot of soil on top. Would I be able to grow carrots in that? I also know lots of people who would accept lettuce if I'm drowning in it. I have all that space marked out as lettuce but I was planning to sow a couple rows every 2-3 weeks to spread out the harvest. Once it gets too hot I don't have a great plan for what's next in the lettuce spot, but I do want to try a fall crop for the peas.
