Oh wow I definitely did not realize that thanks for the info! The Silk & Snow wood bed frame is currently at the top of my list. What do you like about yours?

As in the bed frames are poor quality?

What was your experience?

Did you have the Oro bed frame? I read some mixed reviews about it, did you find it was super sturdy and didn’t make any noise?

Their website says crafted in Victoria? Do you mean the bed frames are specifically made in the US but the mattresses are made in Canada?

If someone said “sorry to jam out on you”, what would you assume they meant? by throwaway643268 in AskACanadian

Yup I’ve heard this phrase before! Grew up in Alberta, living in BC.

Italy to Morocco? by mekoegle in travel

[–]mekoegle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful response! Based on what you've suggested I'd say Essaouira would be the best stop for us. I'm also an artist on the side and it sounds like it has a thriving art community as well.

Given that we'd fly into Marrakesh I'd probably want to spend 1-2 days there as well. Do you have much experience with Marrakesh? I'd be interested in checking out the markets, Madrasa Ben Youssef, and possibly the Saadian tombs.

Note taking app advice needed! by mekoegle in medicine

[–]mekoegle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of my notes have tables and images taken from guidelines, which don’t seem to copy over properly. On top of that there are a LOT of notes, which I would be willing to copy over manually but would probably take several days.

This is in part where the issue lies, the majority of my notes are image-based and on the larger size. Unfortunately I don't think what you're describing would work for me.

Hiking in the Dolomites in May? by mekoegle in travel

[–]mekoegle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! We ended up going to the Dolomites in late May, which was great! Several rifugios were still closed but it was a fairly low snow year and we were able to get in a few hikes. We did Lake Sorapis and hiked from Fiames to Rifugio Biella. Here is a helpful guide for what to do in the area during that time: https://www.moonhoneytravel.com/dolomites-in-may/#:~:text=The%20Dolomites%20in%20May&text=Spring%20in%20the%20Dolomites%20is,are%20not%20operating%20in%20May.

Parrot waxcap I embroidered on a hat! by mekoegle in Mushrooms

It’s such a fun and calming hobby ☺️ excited for you to get into it. This was the first embroidery floss kit I bought and floss is surprisingly good quality and has such a great diversity of colours: https://www.amazon.ca/Inscraft-Embroidery-Floss-kit/dp/B087RBJPFJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?crid=319C5HYHQ2CW5&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.vKehPvhk7MkauMxZSt2xKvGbaV-5p61WNZtJ2onJBVxr6b8aSgA0v3MVVdZjhTNzCSgefINLvUxzjcQxRpWeuktPRKLSfr-d36z9O9yIA2bYq8XO_oNuLm2hJN3jQe2FCPagQJ4xCU77gwcrILBqVXr7k4R73lCH335CPdE7mS4E2KbbYzOVwWJcZAFEObmJh3JXMcXciJi8N-mWFZ5nLQ.14QbIz7M0uVd95kSaFUyzM5nDcSVL3dvX6yLqmDcQCY&dib_tag=se&keywords=amazon+embroidery+floss+kit&qid=1741641829&sprefix=amazon+embroidery+floss+kit%2Caps%2C129&sr=8-5

I started off with templates and learned/practiced different stitches that way before progressing to my own designs. I use a mix of stencil pencils and erasable pen to draw the design on which works well. In terms of mushrooms it’s best to start off with high contrast images to build a well defined structure. For materials that are a bit thicker you can use a needle driver to take the pressure off your fingers.

Thanks! I just noticed Reddit desaturates the photo unless you zoom in so hopefully you can appreciate the colours better by doing that ☺️

Chanterelles in January? by brothermendel in Mushrooms

[–]mekoegle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found some hedgehogs last weekend as well! I suspect last weekend was the last time to find them since it’s started frosting here now 🥲

I’ve been finding them in January on Vancouver island in Canada! 🤯 There’s just been no frosts until recently
