, Suppose so far the world has figured it out for millions of years So it will find its way. plus there is sure a lotta abandoned farms on my street that my kids could make themselves into a home. So I won't be to concerned for now, BUT I do appreciate the rational response.

Silly me is afraid of going above 40mph.



The rest of his life! your kidding. That kid didn't even get to live a life, now he's going to spend it all in jail? I would be happier if they stuck me in jail right after birth. Not saying what he did wasn't wrong.

I used to be afraid of going above the speed limit or even gong the speed limit itself but I’m apparently not now

Yeah he killed a man with his vehicle not paying attention. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time...

Covid garden first meal... balsamic glaze tomatoes (before cooking)

Recipe, please? I could use a good flavor smack in the morning. I don't need another shut-down, closed-off" day like I had, today. The roller coaster got to me, so with the kids at their father's, it was just me & the critters. I got NOTHING done, but there was no avoiding the vegetative state. Tomorrow has GOT to be better!

Recipe is a "to taste" mix.
My 'coffee cup' is over 16-20oz in size to reference what I'm mixing to fill, okie dokie smokey?
* 1 small squeezed lemon WITH pulp
* ~1tsp (heeping or more) turmeric powder
* Honey (I drizzle 2-3 laps around the inside wall of the cup before anything else goes in the cup)
* Ginger root (anywhere between ~1tsp powder to a ground up chunk of fresh root = to a golf ball in size)

Most mornings that's the main mix.
Then pour boiling water in cup and stir.
Let sit until it's barely sip-able. Keep storing before you drink as settling is a quick reality as it cools.

Some times I get into a "hot kick" and add either or both as well:
* Cayenne (the most I have used ~1/2tsp)
* Peprika (prefer smoked flavor ~same as cayenne)

This is also added to my all day mixed as a base as well.

The daytime "stay hydrated" outside drink has a few other ingredients that I mix & match depending that's open in fridge or in the pantry. It is ALWAYS cut ~50% with water.
* This deep green powder (forgot name)
* Cranberry juice (OR dried berries)
* Apple juice
* Bai coconut or lemon juice mixes
* Gatorade powder (~1/3 the 32oz dose)
* OJ
* Grapefruit juice OR fruit & pulp
* Acia dried berries
* Knudsen juices
* Pineapple juice (from the fruit can, etc)
* Tea (unsweetened)
* Homemade kumbucha

I have about 6+ ~32oz smart water & Gatorade bottles I have been reusing for easily over a year now that have a nice golden tint from the turmeric.

YMMV so enjoy & experiment at will.
Nothing has HFCS and all are real juices or actual fruit pulped etc.
I have given this initial recipe elsewhere in a thread back -- geez -- 6+ months ago....

Maybe I ought to cut and paste it as it's own thread in the "foodie zone?"

One of the USPS office staff that knows me over the last decade decided to name it my "jolly juice". So, cheers.

Ate my first tomato ever (unless it’s sauce) in my life without spitting it out. About a year ago my husband had me try a raw cherry tomato from the store

Also today is the FIRST day my family has asked to have a plant based meal (besides their cheese on the tomatoes. I feel proud!

It’s candy onion with green beans (caramelized and steamed) with roasted balsamic glazed tomatoes (tasted like candy) and fresh herb rice (herbs picked fresh out of the garden). Mine has a side of crispy herb tofu.

If anything this lockdown has really changed my whole families eating. They eat way more fresh now than ever.

You’re still waiting for quail eggs too?

I had three valley quail hatch, opened the incubator because one was stuck. All three jumped out! What a time catching them!!!

It can take up to 8 weeks for them to lay. I am just not patient enough.

Pretend they are chickens. At 6 months you can start wondering!

At 6 months they’d probably be gone if they didn’t lay since they don’t live very long.

Well it's nothing you can't fix now. But their might not be a later if you don't.
I have only been going slower .

Understandable. It's a privilege to drive we shouldn't take it for granted.
The amount of careless driving I see this day is unbelievable , I'm surprised their isn't more people in jail. Not the mention the peddle bike riders who ride right on a 60mph road always worry me.
