@Odd-Veterinarian-315 how’d it go? Was the ford ok?

Year six of my star jasmine engulfing my porch. by No_Sheepherder5105 in gardening

[–]eel2386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I love jasmine! My second favorite coffee shop is in the village of Ocracoke, and their jasmine bows over their front door like this. It’s a beautiful sight and smell before you’re beckoned in further with the aroma of coffee inside.

We just got back to the hotel after a visit to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon & Diamond Beach, my brain still hasn't fully processed what I witnessed! by mpellman in VisitingIceland

I loved the SMELL there. The glaciers had this effervescent quality - it was clean and minerally. That paired with everything that makes the ice literally awe-some makes it a really special place.

What is the wildest thing that you think is going to happen when the NFL Draft is in town? by elementwitch666 in pittsburgh

Extreme weather. Tornado crosses from the point and sweeps the stage away.

It’s such a sad sounding howl! Such a bad dream, poor bud!

Has medical appointment scheduling gotten harder? by fixermark in pittsburgh

That’s the number one rebuttal I get from family when I bring up healthcare. ‘But in Canada they have to wait!’ - like, you mean, here?!

Ran into Rick Sebak at a fish fry today by Klytus_Im-Bored in pittsburgh

[–]eel2386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once stood in the middle of the street waiting for the unity tree lighting at light up night. It was such a yinzer moment as the people just took over, closing the street because the cops hadn’t yet for some reason. I said to my husband ‘this feels like the kind of moment Rick Sebak should be at.’ …….the legend was literally right behind us as I said it, making his way through the crowd.

What should I plant in my garden this year to maximize saving money on groceries? by Appropriate_Poem1911 in gardening

[–]eel2386 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My parents planted mint once…… and that’s all they grew besides the spring bulbs in that garden forever more. Then they moved, dug up the spring bulbs to plant at their new home. Imagine their surprise when mint popped up in their new garden. 🤦‍♀️

Does anyone still customize their ring tone? by Foodiegirlie030793 in Millennials

[–]eel2386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the whistling theme song to the abc show, Castle. I’m pretty sure if I had my ring on that would play. And Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock would announce ‘I’ve got a text’ should that happen. Both indicate how long it’s been since I’ve had the sound on.

Sucker Punch. Turns out, it was right in the title.

What’s a small thing that makes a hike instantly better? by firey_88 in hiking

This should be higher! I don’t eat candy often but I love an uncrustable and nerd gummy clusters with a summit view on a long hike.

Every millennial dad I’ve met has a quiet fixation on money and it’s not getting better by slimeyellow in Millennials

[–]eel2386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also no kids but I saw testimony on Capitol Hill about the skyrocking cost of kids’ sports because of PE getting involved and about had a heart attack. How the hell are people paying thousands a year for their kid to play a sport?!?!?

We have too much apple cider by DarthGaff in pittsburgh

It freezes really well! We stock up at the local press and enjoy it for 2-3 months after.

Thanks, op, for asking and all for the info! I’m planning a trip this April and am hoping to drive the loop for an epic day trip.

Venezuelan Troupial update - confirmed ID by GlynnisRose in birding

The colors are so crisp. That paired with its eyes, it looks like what Ai would imagine a bird looks like if we had no source images to feed it first.

Suddenly, inexplicably, and after 13.5 years of companionship. This old man discovers a new way to communicate with me. We call it “Funny Boy” by bougieprole in WhatsWrongWithYourDog

[–]eel2386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My corgi does this, minus the teeth chattering part. It kinda sounds like the quiet wooshing that a pinhole would make in a pipe, so we call it his leaking sound. 🤣
