My organic herbs wintering indoors update 2:
Baked chicken spiked with fresh thyme & tapenade with fresh parsley & basil.
The freezing weather is driving my cooking instincts since I'm stuck inside. Good thing I've got some fresh herbs to work with! LOL

Sounds like here, but we haven't been warmer than 48ยฐ. Low temp tomorrow night is predicted to be -8ยฐF, & IDK how bad the wind chill will be. I'm SICK of winter already!

I guess I should look at our FREEZING weather that wayโ€”at least there are no mosquitoes. Of course, I wouldn't really know since I'm stuck inside! LOL

So, I used part of the marinara to make lasagne. I added Italian turkey sausage to the rest for spaghetti sauce. A lot of this stuff will go into the freezer for future easy meals.

I'm making marinara sauce today with fresh homegrown, organic oregano & basil. Tastes good, so far. Glad I brought the herb plants inside to over-winter! :-)

After a weekend of ice, snow, highs in the teens & lows of 0ยฐF, we got nearly 6" of snow yesterday & overnight. At least it got up to 30ยฐF today. Blech!

Please check in on your friends not only in L.A. County, but all over Southern CA. In addition to the devastating loss of homes, thousands & thousands & of people in inland SoCal are having random shut offs of power w/out notification. Loss of expensive groceries, no heat, school closures, chaos.

Sorry, I meant to say happy bday to you! Mine's already passed. Snow came yesterday, tho. I'm already sick of winter!

Same here on both issues. :-)

Hi!
I haven't been here in a while, & I'm still disgusted by what I said below. This horror has to stop!

I've been so disgusted by the Gaza genocide & the state of the world in general that I haven't felt like posting much.

The IOF intensely bombed Rafah last night, killing at least 67 people. It turns out the bombing was cover for an operation in Rafah that rescued two Israeli hostages. 67 men, women and children dead for two Israelis who couldโ€™ve been saved four months ago with a prisoner swap.

The most important step in my journey to divorce my abusive husband was a counselor's statement, "You don't deserve to be abused. No matter what you said or didn't do." That was a life-changing revelation for me, having been given the message that I deserved abuse my whole life.

1st harvest of green beans! Got some banana peppers, Serrano peppers & a couple of tomatoes. Yay!

Ah, good idea. I'm currently waiting for WD40 to help loosen the water line nuts. Hoping I have the physical strength necessary. I've got a son on stand by, if not. It's just such a mess! Thank you, again! I really appreciate it!

Speaking of portion sizes (somebody is), who the hell eats a 1/2 cup serving of ice cream? LOL

The underside at the back of the sink gave way enough to let water through. The tile is still in place, though I shudder to think what's underneath! And the sheetrock under the sink has molded, so it will have to be replaced soon. Yuck! Tnx so much!

Yup! It's been years since I did canning (water-bath only), but I remember the satisfaction with that sound. :-)

If you would be so kind, I'd appreciate your thoughts on my temporary solution, that I'll be doing myself. Argh! I decided to just replace the faucet for now & caulk the shit out of the sink/counter joint (it's an undermount sink & tile counter.) Any thoughts?

Thereโ€™s been an astonishingly brazen propaganda push to normalize war profiteering in Ukraine as Kyiv coordinates with the arms industry and western governments to convert the war-ravaged nation into a major domestic weapons manufacturer.
