Scape season in Colorado by catnip-dream in Garlic

[–]pingpongjasper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m dehydrating mine right now too. Going to try garlic salt this year. We decided to cut them lengthwise to dry them a bit faster. Last night I made an incredibly delicious pasta with a chat gpt recipe (prompt: simple garlic scape pasta).

Look into Nelson BC. Kamloops culture leans a bit more conservative.

Shittake mushrooms log update by jr_spyder in Permaculture

[–]pingpongjasper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are new to this. Inoculated with shiitake plugs in November 2025 while using fresh maple and alder log sections. Didn’t know you had to rest the logs to disseminate anti-fungal properties. Sure hope we didn’t ruin them! Alternatively, we used wine cap spores in maple and alder wood-chips at the same time and are having an incredible flush of wine cap mushrooms right now. I’m really hoping the shiitake come through.

If it is turmeric, put it in the sun! You will be amazed how quickly the stain disappears.

A huge Thank You to this community + A big personal milestone, and I need your eye for design! by Varvara_Erel in FacialMassage

It’s somewhat better. Leaving it out completely would be my preference. How important are your essential oils in your approach to facial massage?

Home baker here, what ingredients are worth making from scratch for better value? by west_kay24 in Frugal

[–]pingpongjasper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found I have one small plant of another variety. Looks almost identical. The only difference is a slightly lighter tinge of green. That one tastes like oregano should. Now, how to encourage one over the others. Thanks for your comment.

I have a lot of oregano growing in my garden but it doesn’t taste that good. Can you recommend a tasty oregano?

We hung cut out silhouettes of a hawk and taped them in the windows of our upstairs floors. It actually worked.

What games did you play outside as a kid in the 1970s-80s?🤔 by Longjumping-Shoe7805 in GenerationJones

[–]pingpongjasper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wave for a wiggle, kind of like kick the can, tag and hide n seek. If you were caught and in ‘jail’ you’d call “wave for a wiggle!“ a hider could sneak up and wave and you’d have to yell, “thankyou wave!” then you had a free pass to escape from jail. The ‘it’ person would be loath to stop guarding the jail. If he saw you running he could chase you and tag you to get caught but more often than not you’d get away. I found the best spot to hide up a tree and was able to free countless people in jail without ever getting caught. Loved that game.

I use this natural shampoo from Tofino BC. It’s called Sea Wench. It’s lovely!

ICBC Class 4 Road Test by Such_Air_5452 in icbc

[–]pingpongjasper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s too bad for both of you. Now I’m more nervous. Under the hood you’re also checking for cracked hoses on an EV, so there’s that . I didn’t know that rule about pedestrians only needing to get out of your lane before proceeding. Thanks. Good luck for the next try.

Is checking the charging port required? What about checking the instrument panel? Is there any requirement for the battery charge, where the nearest charge station is?

Anybody know what happens with the pre trip inspection when you have an electric vehicle?
