You must go out for co-off-ee in Ba-au-ston. The Boston accent is distinct. Maybe watch a few movies that have that particular accent. https://www.buzzfeed.com/diamondcoleman/a-definitive-ranking-of-boston-accents-in-movies My favorite would be robin williams in Good Will Hunting.

I flipped breakfast and dinner, so had fermented 9 grain flakes with carrot/apple/pineapple slaw and some blueberries to top it off. Dragnlaw-it might be mgs, not grs, milligrams not grams?

Mixed dishes of ww macaroni w/3 bean salad and thin tomato sauce, and cauliflower wings w/stir fry sauce.

@taxlady calcium supplements can cause leg/feet cramps as a side effect. Look it up to verify it, then cut back on how much calcium supplement you are taking. Then pay attention if that helps.

Meal sized salad with caesar dressing (cashew cauliflower base). I was still hungry, so I had 3 baked tortillas w/salsa and avocado. I was still hungry and had a bowl of cooked carrots and brussel sprouts. I guess I should have eaten bigger meals earlier!

Waste not want not. If it smells bad-throw it out, rancid flour/mix is no good for you to eat. If it isn't bad, I'd use it.

I have to tell you, last year, we had bumblebees beneath the deck. We lived in harmony until canning season and one sting. I know how wonderful all different bees do so much pollination. The more the better, just not taking over my preparation space!

Wisconsin flow for bees

edit to add: I used an inexpensive sous vide (my Sous-Vide) to heat the syrup and it worked great. It heated up 4 gallons of syrup in 10 minutes to 100 deg F. (this is good since I'd only use a sous vide for meat which we don't eat now, so I guess I'll keep it for heating syrup.) Installed bees...

Meal sized salads w/tomato dressing. Blueberry ww pancakes snack.

Consumer report on lead and bacterial levels in turmeric supplements and the good ones: https://www.consumerreports.org/supplements/testing-turmeric-and-echinacea-for-potency-and-purity/ Consumer Report on heavy metals in Turmeric powder/brand and the good ones...

It is used in curries. We don't eat a lot of curries. It tastes better to use fresh than dry. I've used it in a turmeric honey hot tea with plant milk. Health wise a little black pepper with turmeric makes health benefits more bioavailable. I use it in vegetable sauces that mimic cheese to give...

To be clear, you have a recipe for 3-6inch cakes, so 12 oz x 3=36 ounces of batter. You want to make 1 layer only of the 9 inch round cake, so you only need 28 ounces and what @pepperhead212 is correct. One layer is 3/4 of the recipe (about 28 ounces). If you wanted 3 layers of a 9 inch cake...

@dragnlaw it's okay, those hives are heavy. I'm going to worry about the bees in the garage tonight, hoping not too many die. I noticed the pear tree is about to bloom, and it's right by the east hives. Those bees are in for a treat with that tree right there first thing tomorrow. The dandelions...

no, I got it. We do have a big tent, but to put it up we'd have to move hives, then install, then we'd have to move them again to take down the tent, and that would only be 4 hives, not all the hives at both ends of the property. The idea is good, but too much work. And thank you!

I had a veggie burger with all the fixings today. I still have a brownie and some mandarins to eat for a snack.

Besides baking/dough, I like mine most when canning fruit. Fruit is juicy and when I dice it juice goes all over the bread board and starts heading towards the downward edge. The metal scraper picks up the pineapple for instance, and a good amount of the juice. The juice never makes it to the edge.

One of the guys at mr bliss's work at the bee place has tasted our black bean brownies and requested them, so I'm making a double batch in a 1/2 sheet pan. Half is black bean brownies, half is red bean brownies, both with chocolate chips and raisins. They are almost identical, you couldn't...

Thanks @larry_stewart ! It looks like we're putting it off to tomorrow but I'm still interested in the temperature. We'll be heating the syrup with a sous vide right before filling the feeders and installing the bees. It will only be a little warmer but over 50 deg F outside.

Bees don't like to be installed in one location and moved to another.. I'm concerned with the initial temperature. Bees are able to maintain a temperature of 98 deg F (something close to that), by clustering once they have warmed their environment. If they start out a little warmer, they'll make...

I'm running out of time to figure it out. ....someone here is probably versed enough in some kind of heat dynamics to help. I think we might need to know the syrup properties, it's a 0.77:1 ratio of sugar to water. 0.9375 gallons consisting of 4.5lbs sugar and 5.85lbs of water. Are there any...

All winter mr bliss built hives and supers, bottom boards, top boards, covers. Seriously, built and painted, and put sheet metal tops on them. 8 hives. Our bees are coming today, 3 lb packages with queens. I think it will be too cold to install them late this afternoon but it's up to mr bliss...

Meat buns-(no meat), filled with spinach, onions, garlic, and mushrooms seasoned with soy sauce. So good! And planned overs, pepper stir-steam with a little veggie rice. My middle son came over today and we made kimchi, for him to ferment at his apartment, and he's going to can it in pints, so...

It's been wet here then it was drying out and getting warm and we made plans to switch around landscape fabric but it rained all day again. Then today, big winds and we can't do switching with the winds. I don't think we'll have time to work on the garden until after tomorrow-the bees are...

@rodentraiser any chance your grocery store keeps a copy of what you bought recently? Like on amazon I can look at what I bought and when. Azure standard is like that too. Or do you keep receipts of any type? If you knew what you bought, it might give you an idea. Or do you keep grocery lists? I...
