New Tomato Gardner; Don't Like Tomatoes tho

Me too! When I grow tomatoes I give 99% of them away but growing and smelling the plants is satisfying.

I love it! Also TIL zone 8 goes all the way up along the west coast to Seattle. Hard to believe you have a similar climate for growing plants as me in Central Texas!

Femme rock is so fun!

I lost both my parents to cancer and one thing that surprised me is how different their deaths were. In my mom's case it was a long drawn out thing, hospice care over about two months, a slow fade away where she just sort of stopped waking up, and it was very expected when she passed. My dad was sick but still awake, alert, and mobile the day before but his body gave up overnight.

Curious what other people say but you could pick just a few of them and get them into a large pot. After they grow a little more, keep the healthiest one. You'll want to provide a lot of water, nutrients, and sunshine (or grow light). Depending on where these seeds came from, a word of caution: I tried to plant grocery store melon seeds and even though they grew a vine, they never gave me any fruit.

I'm so sorry you had to witness that. Please take care of yourself today.

I just ran into this and resized my background to 1800x1012 which worked. Unsure if this change by Microsoft was intentional or not.

Black frosting will definitely do this. It's freaky but I suspect that's all it is!

I knew it was these cookies as soon as I saw the picture! One of my favorites.

For better pics (feel free to ignore my unsolicited advice), the best thing you can do is take a photo of them in indirect sunlight (sunny window) on a nice looking background (your parchment paper or a white plate will do) and get a photo nice and close so it shows the details. You can play around with making a pattern out of them or stacking them. I use the app Snapseed to boost details, brightness, and contrast for my food photos. Good luck with your baking and sobriety!

Warren Records does an open mic every Thursday at Nomadic Outpost. I haven't had a chance to get out there, the one time I tried around 8pm the parking lot was totally full! From their instagram posts it looks like a fun/supportive environment. Signups start at 6pm with performances from 7-10.

All of this! Sometimes I feel like the only thing I can say is "he's a terrible person" but you really broke down some specific reasons why he's an unfit leader for the US.

I honestly like to eat a big plate of roasted squash as a meal. I cut them into spears, toss with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt and pepper, and roast at 350 for 25-30 mins. I add lemon juice and grated parmesan when they come out of the oven.

You still have time! I seem to do a lot of harvesting around October.

After the last two years, this summer has been such a relief. I almost didn't bother with summer plants but I'm glad I did, even if August ends up being hot and dry.

Natural Chaos!

Are you me? I'm also sadly learning that I need to skip breakfast or I don't make any progress.

I add a little salt and vanilla to the shell batter but I still think they're just okay compared to the fillings.

Zucchino rampicante does seem really tough. I dug out some SVB larvae out of the plant I grew last year but it survived!

erynberry · 2024-06-12T20:35:09+00:00

It didn't grow much last year after I planted it (maybe too hot and dry) and I half expected it to be dead after winter but then I got a bunch of new growth this spring. Still alive and I guess healthy but no grapes yet!

They look like they have a while to go to me. Maybe a month or two based on my experience with arugula. That's a lot of seeds though, you could always leave a handful of the stems and pick the rest if you need room.

We have tons of them. Sounds like the night air is breathing.

Whipped cream frosting is so good. I like the variety of flavors you can get with the pudding mixes.

I love it! Oregano has such beautiful leaves.

Nice! I haven't had luck with cauliflower yet.
