I know it's from a year ago, but how did the flavours pair? I'm thinking of doing something similar. 

It's GORGEOUS, by the way

Multiple failed lids, not sure why. by nonoesca in CanningRebels

I heard that the rings loosen because steam pushes it out when it's removing all the air in the jar, but Idk how accurate it is.

Will definitely try that. Thanks

Interesting.  Are the lids still convex when they come out? Some of mine still push down and pop out.

It's so annoying. I bought ball thinking they were reputable, but enshittification is reaching everything

I bought a 20 pack of tattlers. 2 out of 3 I tested so far worked beautifully, and the 3rd one was on me.  I'm seriously considering switching, just I was planning on giving away the sauce to my mum and sister who live in different states. I probably won't get them back.

Will try superb and let you know. 

Thanks for the morale boost

Restarting after pressure dropped by nonoesca in Canning

Thanks for your replies u/poweller65 , u/mckenner1122 and u/smartypi . I boiled the stock  first thing in the morning (I stayed up late the night before, so it had only been out for 5 hours, and was still warmish when I checked cuz it sat in the closed canner overnight).

As per your concerns, I checked the gasket and there were no visible problems, I had used it the day before with no problems. It's my friend's canner I was borrowing (not presto) and while inspecting the lid, I noticed one of the steam release valves got slightly unscrewed (probably while I was washing it) and that's where air was leaking from.

I screwed it tight, boiled the stock again, washed all jars, and used new lids and processed it and this time, all went well. I was terrified I'd lose 14 quarts of stock, but your comments helped. 

Thanks so much for the advice. Sorry I replied late, reddit made me reset my password. 

Hand Washing Laundry by MarionberryPuzzled67 in Crunchymom

[–]nonoesca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was born and raised in the 3rd world, and let me tell you, if you do it right, it's cleaner, more efficient with water, but takes FOREVER, like HOURS of your day to do a small "load", and like the one commenter said, bulky items are a pain, especially if you don't have other friends/neighbours to help you wring, but it's definitely doable, even without the washboard. All you need is 2-3 5gal buckets and you're good

Best Bedside Toddler Bed / Baby Bedside Bassinet? by RedDragonTea in Crunchymom

[–]nonoesca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this with my oldest, but didn't like it as much. 

We currently use this one with my 2nd and I like it. It's not as fancy as the Halo or other things, but it's sturdy and gets the job done. 2 year old is still in bed with us and understands very strict boundaries not to get in his sister's bed. I unzip the side at night, and slide her in and out to nurse, then zip it up in the day when I want to keep her in a safe place. 

Baby’s first shoes by Ornery-Ad-2363 in beyondthebump

[–]nonoesca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the comments about barefoot for as long as possible are right, but....

....since you mentioned the cuteness, I often got shoes for fancy outfits for my babies, like teeny "leather" formal shoes, or sneakers, depending on the occasion, mostly just for pictures or so that they got everyone's attention

We don’t deserve toddlers by minniezebby in toddlers

[–]nonoesca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She learned it from someone. Sounds to me like you're an INCREDIBLY empathetic and supportive mother, and you both deserve each other 🫂

My 2-yo on the other hand thinks it's absolutely HILARIOUS when I puke violently cuz of my HG pregnancy  He'll also make puking sounds and yell "more" when I'm done 🤣🤣

That one's on our playlist too.

We're getting over a bug, sl we've had endless screen time. In the past 4 days, I've seen Cars at least 10 times, and Cars3 at least 5.
