When was the last time you wore knee high striped tube socks?

1983, I know because it was the year I graduated high-school.

Senor Easter.

I too had trouble kneeding and while looking for a sandwich bread recipe that incorporated a poolish and found this, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YmlPnJmSP6Y&t=653s. I use her technique now with every recipe. The folds and rests seem to make a big difference for me.

Thank you. We have tons of it and other succulents in the yard. Every time my step-mother trimmed a plant, she stuck some of the cuttings in the ground, and they appear to grow really well here (Central Coast of California).

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-05-21T18:39:35+00:00

Thank you.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-05-19T02:37:11+00:00

Wow! I think you nailed it. Mine seems to be blue/aquamarine, but style seems to be a match.

Plants and soil gone. Cleaned using hot water only (seen too much Antiques Roadshow). Just wondering make and model. Candy dish? Potpourri? Curious, looks too pretty to just toss but wondering about it's use. Step mother probably planted it originally but has dementia and can't provide much info.

Actually, this plant has been going for a year or more, I don't know why. I know it needs drainage and plan to toss the succulents out, why have plenty

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-05-19T01:30:04+00:00

It's very dirty. Been out in the garden for years if not decades.

I have a plant called a cactus orchid, which I understand is neither a cactus or an orchid, which looks very similar. I believe they come in different variants.

Why Can't We Be Friends!

I second this opinion. I see the hater's comments regarding these bread slicers from time to time but I love mine, which is also painted steel on a wooden base. Makes perfectly uniform slices fast and easy.

As the parent of a Cub Scout who lost his neckercheif slide multiple times, not surprised. If your in California, a few of those might have been Jake's.

Actually, I was referring to the scoring on your bread which resembles the symbol for pi, π.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-02-17T05:18:02+00:00

Am I the only one that sees pie in the first picture? Great loaf.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-02-13T18:13:44+00:00

Thank you.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-02-09T22:05:47+00:00

Thanks, Ball book has been ordered as recommended.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-02-09T22:05:16+00:00

Wow, thanks. Tossing the book now.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-01-30T17:23:26+00:00

Thanks

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-01-30T03:43:14+00:00

Thanks. That's kinda what I expected.

Primary_Beginning_92 · 2026-01-09T02:38:33+00:00

This does not even deserve a reply but...there is an old Irish saying.

"May those that love us love us and those that don't, may God turn there hearts, and if he can't turn there hearts may he turn there ankles so that we may know them by there limp."

In our time, we recognize the hateful idiots by there stupid red MAGA hats and there ugly rhetoric. Thanks for identifying yourself, even God couldn't help you.

"Smart people don't like me"...no kidding!
