I really lucked out with the soil in our yard! I can grow basically anything as long as I feed it some coffee grounds once a week-ish
Oh man, now I want to find myself a Rabbiteye variety and see how tall I can get it…
I’m a sweet berry kind of person, so I guess I’ll try and have some patience. Thanks!
I’m in the PNW! I am also very surprised to see them so early… I thought they would be ready closer to like end of July. We have lots of very happy bees around our neighborhood and my neighbors also grow lots of fruits, so maybe that helped?
Thanks for the advice, everyone! My legacy blueberry plant is going strong, and my sunshine one isn’t far behind! I can’t wait to pick them, how will I know when they’re ready? I imagine they’ll need to darken in color a little bit and shed the little brown flower petal bits, right?
Oh thank god, I thought I was crazy for hating him. I wish I could just turn off his ability to interrupt me while I’m doing things. It always feels like he takes forever to say everything!
That being said, is the protorelic side quest worth the Chadley of it all? I did the first two or three and they were kind of fun but the cactuar one in the… Corel region? Is where I stopped. I think I’m nearing the end of the game, so if it’s worth doing I should pause and go back for them all.
Thanks for the help! This is great info
Any recommendations for a good fertilizer? I mostly just use some home compost, but it’s a small bit of veggie peels and left over coffee grounds in my garlic bed.
Is phosphorus something that would be added by fertilizer?
So I have never had this dish! Most dishes I cook I have tasted a variant of it so I know how it should taste when I make it, but Cajun/Creole/Louisiana food in general is something I’ve never had the pleasure of trying first hand but the spices always look really tasty. Does anyone have a good recipe to share with me, with maybe some notes about how it should taste? I usually don’t cook with meat at home, so meat substitutes would be useful, but I still use chicken stock and enjoy cooking with sausages like andouille and kielbasas. I think my kitchen is pretty well stocked other than the meat bit! I do lack an instant pot, but I’ve got a Dutch oven and a slow cooker and a rice cooker, etc.
Basically the question above. My legacy plant growing in the same pot is doing just fine, but the Sunshine seems to be struggling. We’ve been getting a lot of rain lately so I haven’t been watering as much, is it just thirsty? Should I give it some fertilizer? I’m in Zone 8a and planted them about two weeks ago.
I’m new to growing fruits so I’m a little lost! I’ve only grown herbs and garlic before. I hope they can be saved!
I second this. Makes sense to me, but it would be better to add clarification I think? Like, if you’re pointing to something behind glass and can’t point clearly, it might help to say like “このあかいもの” or maybe “あかいこれ” but I’m not sure how natural that last one is…
I’m looking for anything out there that could help me navigate grocery stores in Japan? Maybe an Anki deck for food labels with proper kanji? I’ll be there for a period of time later this year and while my conversational skills are okay, I don’t know that I could grocery shop! I’ve got Genki 1 and 2 and some vocab cards for various ingredients, but they’re mostly hiragana or basic kanji like 肉 or 魚 or ご飯. Is there anything else I could get? Books, YouTube channels, anything that would help prepare me to buy ingredients would be appreciated!
I love making salad dressings from scratch, and also love eating hummus but I make very small amounts of these things. I also plan to move soon and will be donating most of my kitchen stuff when I do, so I’d like something that could be well loved by a new owner. Is there anything out there that fits the bill? Or even better something I might already have that fits the bill? I don’t have a blender, either. Already donated that one.
I also liked Jonas Quinn, but it took a second rewatch to get over the guy wrenching despair I endured at Daniel’s death/ascension. Absolutely gutted me, I was too mad to enjoy Jonas after that. But after the second time I agree, Teal’c became more with him than he did when Daniel was part of the team. Part of me wonders if it was intentional on the writers part, like “oh we have this big gap where character was, let’s fill it with two characters instead of just replacing one”? Or if it was just kind of naturally their interactions were more fluid.
Oh man, I haven’t seen the later seasons since finishing Farscape so I don’t know that I caught that! Now I can’t wait, Farscape is probably the only show tied with SG 1 for me in my all time favorites
I absolutely love Michael Shanks! Daniel Jackson was my favorite character for most of my first watch. I can’t wait to get to that one, definitely one of the ones where the actor really gets to flex his skills.
I’m in Season 2 of my rewatch of SG1 and Christopher Judge’s acting gets me every time. Seeing Teal’c with O’Neill’s personality is just so weird and jarring. What’s everyone’s favorite episode when the actor has to be someone different? Either a swap or like when Jack is inhabited by the organisms from the bioluminescent time capsule thing.
Thanks for the suggestions for the tuna recipes! I just wanted to share that I made some of them and will be making more next week. So far I’ve made a few different adjustments to my onigiri, adding gochujang, kimchi or both. I also had a rice bowl topped with tuna and pickled ginger, and made my very first tuna melt with tuna, mayo, siracha and sourdough. I was going to take a picture of the melt, but it fell victim to my ravenous hunger before I could get my phone out. This pic is of the tuna, kewpie mayo and gochujang onigiri I made as I was preparing lunches for the next day. Thanks everyone for the ideas!
Oh for sure lol I’d never actually suggest it. I was just watching the episode and the song came to mind
Is it just me or does anyone else feel like Thunderstruck by AC/DC would be totally fitting as Thor’s ship lowered over Heru’ur’s ship? I’m doing a rewatch and taking notes as I go on their writing choices and this episode just makes me so psyched. What a cool introduction to the level of technology the Asgard possess.
(I feel like I should point out I’m joking and in no way suggesting they should have added AC/DC to the show)
Not sure if this is quite what you’re looking for, but I like getting the O’food gochujang bottles. They’re convenient cause you can just pop the cap and squirt a little onto whatever you’re making for some fermented spice. Also everything from The Japanese Pantry has been absolutely amazing! I get my soy sauce and sesame oil from them. Siete Enchilada sauces are awesome, I’ll pour half a jar of either the red or green into enchilada/taco soup. Or even simmer some jackfruit in it for tacos.
When I’m feeling lazy, I’ll sometimes mix a jar of Muir Glenn tomato sauce into one of my jars of marinara I make from scratch to double up.
Agreed, but with fish? That sounds… strange lol but I’ll try it!
I do, but the labels all being in Korean is very overwhelming. Do you have any advice for navigating? I’m pretty adventurous so if need be I can just grab a few and roll the dice. I just hate to be wasteful
I want to get this just to have in my kitchen counter for a chuckle
(Sorry in advance for the lack of proper tags, I’m not sure how to add them on mobile)
So I tend to eat a can of tuna once or twice a week, usually with just a little salt, pepper and a dab of kewpie mayo and stuffed into onigiri. Are there any spices or sauces I can add to make it more interesting? Or any other easy tuna recipes I can make for one, preferably with rice? I really enjoy spicy foods and fermented/pickled things, but I’m not sure the best ways to combine that with something like tuna.
I absolutely love all things mushrooms, particularly exploring all the edible varieties I can find and trying them! Thing is, I live in the city and am the only one in my house who eats mushrooms (no one else likes having them in the house, let alone on a plate!) so I was wondering if anyone had any advice for 1) where to find a variety of mushrooms (I mostly see Portobello and cremini) and 2) any good ways to cook or prepare mushrooms for just one person? I typically just fry them up in a skillet or add them into a stir fry after I’ve made everyone else’s plates.
I hope this doesn’t break any rules! I couldn’t find anything on the side bar about what types of posts are allowed. If it does, could someone be kind enough to point me to another place to post this?
