This appears to be a version of my The Good Place.

So awesome. While I was going through it I thought it’d be the perfect setting for a teen horror movie. Mostly because it never seemed like I was progressing to the exit, never really knew where I was and because there’s weird mannequins everywhere.

The monument decision is so backwards. Utah has a hell of a tourism/outdoor activity economy that has to be bringing in more money and causing less destruction than mining does. Go visit in high season and you won’t see the rock formations for the rental RVs. I know Patagonia gear has already pulled some of it’s…

I had curly hair I hated and my mom told me it was the bread crusts!

This is at the same time when CHIP was defunded due to Congress not taking up renewal efforts. Fight as hell when in utero, don’t give a fuck when out.

Never ignore letters from the IRS, even if they don’t make sense and seem to be mistakenly sent to you. If your name is on it it’s meant for you, and if it’s a mistake it’s on you to figure that out and fix it.

Trixie Belden!

Good luck in school! I did this a few years ago and I had to quit my job to do so which was hard. But with classes clinicals it would have been so much harder. 2. 5 years will go by fast and then you’ll be making a very good wage.

I had BA for a while and in the end the cost per serving wasn’t worth it. And they are really skimpy on vegetables. But I probably would subscribe to a service that planned out the menu for a week plus provided a shopping list and the recipes to follow because coming up with ideas is what I hate the most.

Poppy?

I know it’s a pain in the ass! That’s why I warned you. There are food mills out there that do the task, I’ve only ever used them for apples and making vegetable baby food for my niece so I’m not sure if the sieve is fine enough for berries.

I make a good plum upside down cake, the tart would be a good change so I’ll look it up, thanks! I’ve made plum jam and it’s ok but not worth the effort IMO. I’ve also made Asian plum sauce, plum pate des fruits (delicious, ungodly amounts of time to make), dried plums (didn’t like prunes before, didn’t like prunes…

Your welcome! I have black raspberry vines that are heavy producers so I’ve learned to use them.

Let em macerate (sit) in sugar till juices appear (like 1/4- 1/2 cup sugar per 1 cup berries), cook with some acid (lime is great, lemon too) and smash the berries with a masher or spoon. Cook until the berries have softened and the liquid has thickened slightly (for syrup) or even more for yogurt (it will continue to…

My house is all the colors, including ceilings in many rooms. My whole basement was orange until recently. Now it’s copper red. My tip for the yellows/oranges/reds is find the color you want and go one lighter. And large swatches!

Oregon passed this as well this session. I think it kicks in next January.

I became a nurse at age 42, not obstetrics ‘cuz that’s not my thing but I found my place in the world. It was somewhat easier than my earlier BFA degree in that I was too old to give a crap about stupid stuff, but harder in that I really missed my free time. But I would do it again in a heartbeat if I had to.

I have two college degrees and I don’t know what most of those foods are except for types of meat maybe? I also don’t know half of the ingredients in fancy cocktails these days so I stick to old fashions and beer. And gourmet sandwich shop usually just means twice as expensive and no chips on the side....wow, this…

Years ago I bought tickets for Spain on a whim, with random dates that meant I’d be there a month. Upon hearing this my Mom told me she’d always wanted to go to Spain (but never ever said anything before) so could she come? I humored her, she joined for the first week and we had the best time. I actually was sad to…

As an adult, I would name a rat Bruce after the many terrible men I’ve known with that name.
