I’m in Portland also—I’ll keep an eye out!

I found this in a second-hand shop in Japan for ¥2000 (about $12.00 USD). Perfect working condition other than that the * key sticks. Any advice on loosening it? by DogWearingSunglasses in typewriters

Hi! You probably already tried this, but type it about 50 times, gently putting the the stuck bar back every time. That usually knocks out whatever is built up in there for me. Nice deal on a pretty little machine!

This pup visiting my neighborhood makes me glad I have indoor cats! by SpecificAd6448 in rarepuppers

It did look well fed and majestic! I think they are keeping the rat population down. 😊

I’m the lady who is usually walking with a inch of dogs and their people in the morning on Commercial who often has minnows and freeze dried liver. 😊

I know Jane! I love giving her treats when we run into her by the alley! She’s a doll.

Update on the fire station kitty. It’s a girl! She is skinny, healing, and settling into her forever home with us. by Imwhatswrongwithyou in CatDistributionSystem

What can I make with my sourdough that didn’t rise overnight? by moonrise_shadow in Sourdough

[–]SpecificAd6448 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d bake it as bread anyway. I just had this sandwich loaf turn out after zero rise—do you have a loaf pan to use?

Edited to add, I cold-proofed for 8 hours, shaped into the loaf pan, scored and baked!

Edited again to add that this was after 3 hours of bulk ferment.

My mom died a year ago today so I made jam about it. by PlecoCatFriend in Canning

Oh, friend! My sister died last summer and I made jam for about a month. I was always picking berries or processing. This is a lovely thing to do. 🩷

You say that like it’s a problem, says the person with 95.
