  • i’m older than most of you but i just got my favorite present ever this year. My girlfriend got me a moonstone necklace and (even though she’s not really a believer) she took it out on a full moon and bathed it in moonlight and asked Hecate to bless it for me by way of a beautiful poem that she wrote that i can’t read without sobbing.

    It’s the only thing i own that I consider treasure and I rarely take it off.




  • Forums and blogs mostly; at the end of the day there’s a lot of similarity between fermenting and brewing and they are both really basic. If you use a search engine good keywords for alcohol are ‘hooch’ and ‘pruno’ and for vegetables ‘lacto ferment’ and then add in whatever you are trying to ferment and you’ll usually find lots of other people who have been doing it and love sharing their techniques.

    My favorite right now is the Ginger Bug because i can’t quite seem to get it right and carbonate tea with it and that makes it interesting as the rest were very simple.






  • I actually adore my stainless steel Cuisinart cookware. Been using the same set for 15+ years now with zero issues at all except some light pitting inside my stock pot that i’m sure was my fault. I find i actually do use almost all the pieces in the set, there’s one mega huge fry pan i don’t use much and i don’t use the steamer insert much but otherwise it’s been a daily workhorse and I do recommend it. Treated nicely the non stick egg pans last a few years, too.


  • the venus fly trap contains small hairs inside of the mouth. It requires two hairs being triggered at the same time to ‘chomp’. The chomp action is biologically expensive so the plant can’t afford to do it until a proper sized meal will get digested and it will gain net energy.

    It also precludes smaller animals with strength from just walking out of the mouth.

    The plant did nothing wrong this is just a silly owner!
