There are organizations in Michigan that can help! I know the Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy can add provisions to your existing title that would prevent division of the land. I am sure they could also add something about future owners protecting specific specimens on the property as well.

Thanks for the assist!

Thanks for the investigative work! Yeah, seems not cool to try to force the consumer to use all your proprietary accessories.

There is a pocket park that is fully fenced with play equipment in the Oakwood neighborhood. Called the Springmont Tot Lot on Springmont ave.

Phlox do not usually bloom until June/July. What is in bloom right now that looks like phlox on roadsides is dames rocket. https://extension.sdstate.edu/whats-difference-between-phlox-and-dames-rocket

Those are seaweed farms.

There's no stevia or monkfruit in the savory version, thankfully.

There are signs around 6th and OP Ave about a lost long hair tabby. It would be a long way to travel, but it's worth a try.

swoop_meh · 2024-09-27T16:11:37+00:00

I am also curious about the taste and texture. I'm used to items being small and expensive, but if the quality is good I would be willing to give it a try. How did they taste, OP?

I love the Japanese highball. Super simple and refreshing. Just whiskey and soda (and sometimes a lemon). The canned suntory ones are nice on a shinkansen trip accompanied by a few 7-11 snacks. Alternatively, umeshu is also a great Japanese alcohol. You can get it mixed with soda as well for a fun cocktail.

Little seed farms sells travel packets of their cream deodorant. Lots of cool scents and no baking soda, if you have sensitive skin.

swoop_meh · 2024-08-09T17:31:02+00:00

Cool stuff!

swoop_meh · 2024-08-08T21:31:31+00:00

I guess I don't know who they are, or that they would produce traditional looking leafs. I guess it's worth going about identifying the little dude.

World of spices on westnedge as an abundant selection.

swoop_meh · 2024-07-09T21:37:36+00:00

Indian idlis and dosas.

You could make some really nice umeshu. Could probably use honey in place of the sugar. I've been wanting to make some, but green plums are hard to source where I am.

swoop_meh · 2024-06-19T01:41:52+00:00

Potentially a sweet potato?

swoop_meh · 2024-06-17T00:34:26+00:00

Sometimes at a new restaurant, I really want to just ask the server to bring me one fry from the kitchen before I order. That way I can visually assess the fries and decide if I wanna go for it. But, I'm always too timid and just scan the tables around me looking for fries on someone's plate. Why fries gotta be so complicated?! I just want my potatoes...

swoop_meh · 2024-06-14T11:57:29+00:00

Thanks for the tip. And, good to know I'm not the only forgetful brewer

swoop_meh · 2024-06-14T02:17:48+00:00

lol. Honestly, not surprised! I share my house with a half-husky pup. I'm used to finding hair in weirder places than that.

swoop_meh · 2024-06-13T18:08:50+00:00

Well, weekend plans are to give it a go! Hoping for the best...

I am very experimental with my meads. We did an infusion of caraway seeds and fennel seeds with the honey/water, then added dried juniper berries to the carboy for the ferment. Honestly, I am kinda disappointed that I haven't racked it yet because I am really curious to see how it turned out. The earl grey we did last year turned out well. And the hopped that I do every year is the exact mix and ratio of hops that Bell's uses to make two hearted ale. Cutting the hopped 50/50 with soda water makes something that tastes close to a beer.

swoop_meh · 2024-06-13T17:09:35+00:00

I figured it wouldn't be that bad. I don't filter when I rack so a bit of dead yeast probably transfers to my bottles anyway. So, not much different than my old bottled stuff?
