'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The concern is that the cat will hide to the point that the sitter won't be able to find him.
This, for me.
Puppycat would eventually slut it up in search of pets. Kittenish? There are many people who don't believe I've ever owned a black cat. She hides. Well.
Question: how do you know when to pick tomatoes?
When you can pull on it gently and it comes off in your hand. If it's really a struggle to get it off the vine, it's got more ripening to do. Is my technique.
I just feel 'em up. I want to feel a little give but not too much. Color is also a guide.
ETA: "give" meaning that they should be a bit soft but not too soft.
I just need to get to it before the birds. I hung cheesecloth, but am not 100% that'll do it. Wildlife is wily here.
I usually go mostly by color. When squirrels and birds are a problem, I sometimes bring them inside when they still have a little green at the top and let them ripen a few more days on the counter.
Yeah, that's tricky. You may want to pick it a little early and let it ripen on your counter.
Oh my god. I thought that, being gluten intolerant, I could never have Skyline again (or, well, I could have just the chili in a bowl, but frankly, what makes it good is having it over spaghetti, or as a cheese coney; it's totally too watery to eat in a bowl).
They have on their menu the option of the chili over a baked potato. OH MY GOD SO GOOD. Seriously. I am so happy.
I am totally failing to decide what to have for dinner. Nothing I have here is appealing, but I don't want to go out and get anything. Bah.
I still think you chili is wrong, Steph, but glad you got some.
These are Juliette tomatoes. I'll just see.
