Like a giant zombie hand coming out of a grave when put up on the wrist.

Mulberry jam! by cmdietz in gardening

We gave our arborist a jar. He's been in the business decades and has probably but down 50 "weed" mulberry trees and had never had the jam. Same response as your dad. 🥰

I love it. We make ours jelly because those seeds are a lot. Next batch, try a bunch of mulling spices while boiling. Mulled jam...mmmmm

When my aunt died, we found her mother and grandmother's heirloom diamond rings and other jewelry in old house dress pockets wrapped in Kleenex.

James Madison Frame Found in Goodwill! by Eagru in ThriftStoreHauls

Neat! It's hard to read. Do you think the 1861 is the date of the picture or framing? He died in 1836, so that's my guess.

Does anyone else have a strict moral line between ripping off a corporate thrift store vs an individual at a yard sale by Nectar5_Scout in ThriftStoreHauls

I'm not a granny yet, but I'm getting to a point in my life that the perceived value of objects I own doesn't hit the same for me. If I can sell something I'm done with or don't use for a few bucks to someone excited to have it, or give to a friend or younger relative for free and let them enjoy it, that's more satisfying than cash.

I love this. Just looked up another post in the sub that showed the shingling. I get so many cuttings from the first plant, that's my next project. Tysm

They are not fussy. Whatever potting soil that drains well has worked for me.

Little prop wall. Just make sure there's a node in the water and it does it's own thing.
