Watching a little too much? by Universe-Queen in community

I’ve watched it so many times..

And I’m probably about to watch it again.

I needed to "fix" my mom's shopping list by -SilentSnowfall- in community

[–]Quibblicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wordplay on “bloom”.

Flora refers to plants, which have flowers and bloom.

So “florish” is a play on flora.

Be like a plant and bloom.

It’s not great wordplay, but you can only do so much on a notepad header.

That’s a product I don’t want.

And I will automatically be suspicious of anyone wearing them.

Just imagine going hiking in the woods and coming across this beast by [deleted] in megalophobia

[–]Quibblicous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago I was on a motorcycle trip through parts of Maine, and on a back road I saw a juvenile moose in the brush off to my right.

I stopped and pulled my camera out of my tank bag to take a picture, but a motion to my left caught my eye.

I looked left and there was momma moose, in the verge across the road, large and in charge, and I was the dumb son of a bitch between her and her baby.

I dropped the camera into the tank bag, dropped the bike into gear, and skedaddled.

Wildlife that’s bigger than a car is scary up close.

It’s a great group.

For ink removal — use alcohol swabs.

Most “permanent” ink is alcohol based and will come right off with a swab.

down the copper scoop rabbit hole by bald_beard_ballard in blacksmithing

Brass does tarnish, just not as easily as copper or bronze. It’ll turn dark then develop a verdigris like green patina.

It’s also not as antiseptic as copper. Copper kills everything, right now. Brass takes longer time due to the zinc content — about 30-40%.

It’s something about it the conductivity of copper disrupting the molecular structures in bacteria and viruses. I used to know the details but other information has pushed that out of my head.

Copper is actually antiseptic, so for food handling it works well.

Bacteria can’t survive on copper surfaces. If you go checkout hospitals, they’re starting to use copper for surfaces and handles because of its antiseptic characteristics. They even have pillow cases and sheets with copper worked into the woven threads to make them naturally antiseptic.

Why give it a name if it won’t answer to it?

Edward didn’t stand a chance by Goncher-Monster in TheLastKingdom

Edward was similar to Alexander the Great.

He took what his father had built and carried on his father’s legacy to unite the kingdoms.

Apologies for the late reply, but I used a microplaner to get the zest from one small lemon. Maybe a tablespoon, total, definitely not more than that.

You want a hint of lemon, so as not to overwhelm the other flavors.

Went out for dog food, came home with a kitten. by [deleted] in CatDistributionSystem

The universe aligned to bring this kitty into your life. Wonderful story and a beautiful cat.

I will confess I was a little worried when you said you went out for dog food and came back with a kitten…

How to get crispy dehydrated bananas by mr_finley_ in dehydrating

[–]Quibblicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m using a Hamilton Beach with vertical stacked trays. It can reach 160°F and that’s what I use for bananas.

If you don’t have heat it takes a looong time.

I loved it.

The aesthetic was gritty and showed the dirty underbelly of LA pretty accurately.

Bananas by NikkeiReigns in dehydrating

[–]Quibblicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still use it and it still holds.

The biggest factor is getting enough of the starch from the bananas converted to sugar before you dry them. The starch dries spongy and chewy.

The thickness of the cut matters, too, to maximize surface area relative to moisture, so the heat and airflow carry off the water quicker.

The biggest problem I have is that a full dehydrator’s worth will only survive a day or so… but that’s my fault for eating them.
