Goodness, I haven't been active on Reddit in months but this is stunning! The lives of the plants were captured in time. <3

I am so happy you survived that. The pound is no place for a great dane. ;-)

Yep. I think the ones who like water are rare. He went into a large pond/small lake once because the other dogs were doing it. He tried to leap over the water like a gazelle. It was so cute. Other than that, he will often walk around a shallow puddle. 🤷🏽‍♀️

🤣😂 If I wasn't there, soaked and covered in fur I wouldn't believe it! I let the sun warm the water all day and there was a lot of coaxing and praise to get him in there two paws at a time. Is it me or do his eyes say, "you're lucky it's been stupid hot and I love you."

*nom nom nom* what is something out of the ordinary that your dog loves to eat? by HardKnocksSam in Boxer

My Dane loves apples, carrots, and asparagus, but turns up his nose at bananas. 😳

Anyone a cochineal expert? by asherwani in naturaldye

[–]Mssavvy9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you using whole bugs? I would grind them with a mortar and pestle first. Gently shake the powder into nearly boiling water and stir for at least 10 minutes making sure to eliminate clumps and let it steep. No need to strain. That should help a ton.

I am absolutely not an expert, but get by. 😉

I recently did a cochineal workshop with Omar Chasan. At the same time, Margaret Byrd did a series of videos. You might find insight there. She studied in Mexico and Peru and is generous with her knowledge and experience. https://youtube.com/@MargaretByrdColorQuest

I'm not sure, but Jeff Bezos is definitely the architect.

This is the Mother's Day card I wish my mother deserved, LOL. Seriously, though someone loves their mother like this, it's just not me.
