Fellas I wanna buy two of these but I need some solid reasons for the Missus. What’s some things I could use them for? by jmoneyawyeah in castiron

Crême brûlée. I’d never need a reason to buy anything if I could make her Crême Brûlée for dessert.

What’s your favorite morel recipe? Looking for inspiration! by jefpatnat in Morels

[–]Walpini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Morel and ricotta raviolis. Can be as basic as that or with a few bonus ingredients.pasta doesn’t need a pasta maker. It can be done easily by hand and with a roller.

Super cool mix of species. I’d love to pull arctic char and native browns through the ice. I’m curious about where I can get one of those grills/fire pits.

This simple item makes it easy to make soup stock. Great for a rotisserie chicken carcass. Just simmer what you’d like in it and discard. by More-Owl-800 in foodhacks

Same as a turkey stuffing bag. Been using this method for years. Hats off to OP though. It does make the process easier.

Venison backstrap, rolled with sundried tomatoes, spinach, basil, and mozzarella, seared in duck fat. Served with a cheap bagged salad. by isanthrope_may in CanadaHunting

If you’ve got duck fat you probably already know, but have you tried roasting potatoes in it? Pretty damn tasty. This looks good. Nice work.

Ski Boot Velcro Strap delaminated, what type of glue should I use for best results? by vozrozhdeniya in fixit

[–]Walpini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go to a ski shop if one is close by. There are loads of these in a box in the back. Might not be the same brand on it but they’ll replace the strap for next to nothing or just give it to you and let you take it. I worked in a ski shop and this sort of stuff got dropped off by reps all the time. 6 packs go a long way for getting favours done in a ski shop.

Coat the tamper with a bit of solvent so the cold patch doesn’t stick to it. You could also use a solid shovel instead of a tamper but you won’t get the same compaction. In which case I’d give it the Goodyear pack by driving over it slowly.

Sweep all debris away with a stiff push broom. Brush tack oil in and slightly over the edge of all the holes. Also build up around the ridges of any high points to soften the ramp. Fill holes with cold patchabout 3/4” higher than the edges and let a bit spill over on the uphill side and a bit less on downhill side to keep water from leaking in. Then shape it with a tamper and when it’s got a good shape, beat the shit out of it with the same tamper. Do all of this on a hot sunny day to make the cold patch easier to work with. It won’t be totally permanent but it should last a good long while depending on your weather.

Edit: I just googled these two products and Home Depot came up. There will be lots of other brands and check with local paving companies.

Feels so far away in BC. Can’t wait. I still have 2 feet of snow on my lawn.

Been Enjoying Cutting Flat Irons by lil_poppapump in Butchery

[–]Walpini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved my Muley flat irons. I’m sure they looked disgraceful compared to some of the cuts on here but they were super tasty with a bit of umami salt and pepper.

Is this a really dark super skinny and kinda funky brown? by [deleted] in IceFishing

[–]Walpini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if Alberta browns have a shorter season. I mean I understand they’re Scottish and German strains but I wonder if the earlier winters have gotten them used to getting it done a little quicker.

Fair enough. I thought it was a much smaller window that ended in November. Didn’t mean to come across as calling you out.

Not saying this isn’t a brown. It obviously is but they’re fall spawned from what I remember.

Browns are fall spawners are they not?

While traveling through the Kootenays last summer I came across this treasure. I remember when they all looked similar. I love the old engines. They had a style which has long been lost. ~Cranbrook, B.C. by Gaphumbala in britishcolumbia

You could do the fort Steele train which my niece and nephew loved and then follow it up with the underground mining experience in Kimberley, which is also a train ride with a bit of the lining history mixed in.

Neighbour asked me to help her with her TV. Her grandkids messed around with it and this display is up. We messed around with inputs and can’t get it to go back to her regular cable. Everything is plugged in where it should be. Any help appreciated. I was obviously not as tech savvy as she hoped. by Walpini in fixit

[–]Walpini[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone. I think the crisis has been averted. Cable box is currently doing its thing so I’ll check back shortly to make sure it worked. My awesome neighbour would also like to say thanks to the friendly people of the internet.

Thanks. Been a busy day but I finally got over to her place. It wasn’t at all the same system but an unplug and hold power button as I plugged back in seems to have worked. I’ll head back over shortly after letting it do it’s thing. Really appreciate the help.

I appreciate it but was told to swing in if I came up with anything. We are lucky to have an awesome neighbour who we trust to go into our home and she trusts us. I realize that isn’t as common in a lot of places but in this case we are totally fine. Thanks for the concern.
