Looks more like baklava to me.

Are Golden Delicious good straight from the tree? I do not find the supermarket variety to be particularly delicious.

I can’t watch original series Star Trek because of the screeching sounds that happen whenever we are supposed to feel dramatic surprise and/or suspense. It’s like nails on a chalkboard.

That poor woman.

So you’re saying that… video killed the radio star…?

Two teachers at my high school got married and both of them changed their full names. They chose a last name to share- after a saint they both resonated with, and each chose new first and middle names. They felt it marked the new chapter in their lives, that as they became one, they were both new people. They were both the young, cute, cool teachers that everyone had crushes on so we all thought it was super creative and cool.

For things that have a short time between ready and gone with the wind, I use organza bags, like for wedding favors, just put one over the top when it’s almost there and it will collect them without hindering the drying process. Some people use paper bags and twine, but this is cuter.

I commented below with a similar idea. Like a public indoor park, for when Outside™ is no longer an option for recreation due to climate issues. They are big enough to accommodate large playgrounds, both child and adult style, running tracks, swimming pools, sports fields/courts. Keep the food court, sure, throw in a library, etc.

If we ever get a house and senate progressive enough to shave like 0.000000001% of the military budget we could put one in every abandoned mall and have funds left over.

As is often mentioned, the plumbing situation makes this somewhat untenable.

But, as the world warms and outdoor recreation becomes impossible, I think they could be repurposed into indoor recreation centers, not that different from a regular mall, just less focused on shopping and more on fun and exercise.

Similar tactic- leave balled up, slightly damp newspaper around directly on the dirt overnight, get up early and collect them, they will be chock full. I do it the night before trash day and put them in the municipal compost cart. I’m sure some escape, but the majority stay in the bin until collection. Lots to eat in there.

When I was a kid I had a dog who loved to put these guys in his mouth. He’d come in with a funny look on his face, we’d lift up his lips and he’d have one or several of them tucked up between his gums and cheek like it was tobacco. No idea why that was so appealing to him.

*exclusionary. Exclusive sounds like they are only feminists for trans women.

PB&J is like, one of the cheapest meals you can make, right? What if it WASN’T?

Lovely! Since they’re all in containers it would be pretty simple to use copper tape to keep the slugs at bay: https://www.agilehomeandgarden.co.uk/post/how-does-copper-tape-stop-slugs

Good luck!

My problem is the deer adore them, even when soaked in hot pepper wax and repels-all (rotten egg and garlic juice).

These pics are from the ones growing in the back garden of the plant nursery near me, shockingly beautiful flowers:
