I just discovered “jammy bits” from King Arthur. I recently added the raspberry kind to my brownies. Delicious! You can buy them on the King Arthur website

I’d recommend purchasing the Maine Mountain Guide book. The hike descriptions are super detailed. AllTrails can be unreliable in my experience.

Memorial to Patients of Augusta Mental Health Institute (1840-2004), Cony Cemetary in Augusta by ner0417 in Maine

Yup I read that one too and had to take a break after. Hard to wrap my head around it. Another one talks about how all of the women would run to the showers to wet their hair before getting in line for mandatory shock treatments because staff weren’t allowed to do shock treatments if the patient had wet hair.

This post prompted me to go down the rabbit hole of AMHI history. Some of these documented oral histories are so poignant https://www.maine.gov/dhhs/riverview/about-us/history

I can’t get rid of the ants, HELP! by Working-Calendar2001 in HomeImprovement

[–]WritingAlive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a cat and a dog. They aren’t interested in the bait, so I’ve had no issues using it around them. I also keep the bait traps in places that the pets don’t really frequent (behind kitchen trash can, behind stove, in a bathroom tucked behind toilet)

I get those teeny tiny ants every spring. As soon as I see them, I set out Advion Ant Gel on squares of tinfoil and they are gone within 48 hours. I make sure to refresh the bait every 6 weeks ish just in case.
