That wouldn't be that hard, I feel more tired after the nap!

I know the problem, the Unicorn is loaded and just sitting there.....

Ok I'm loving the MC 1 part but it tends to lump. And honestly I wonder if the lumps are more one ingredient than others b/c two - 1 gal mixtures in water side by (clear jugs) are 2 distinctly different colors. Now I back blend them but I ordered this which I hope fixed it (15 bucks amazon)
That's how we do it in the lab

I use one to make DTE dry fert into a powder to make it more available, a easy peasy stoner chore.

Good Morfnoevight All you Friday the 13th stoners!

One thing about being 15 hours behind most of you is I never get to break the news

We had company for dinner last night and I ate WAY to many carbs, sat down in my chair after they left and promptly fell asleep. Spaghetti and Italian sausage, Fennel salad, Sour Dough Garlic Bread and Apple Pie and Oatly Salted Caramel Ice Cream. My blood sugar was very high when I finally made it to bed. It is down in a good range now. It is rare for me to do that but sometimes I just need to feel like I am normal We all know that is not the case.

@Mañ'O'Green How ya doin out there? Hopefully dry! Friends on the coast in Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz area are getting beaten up pretty bad. A buddy in Placer county barely missed by a mudslide

Peeps in San Diego are lovin the surf!!! Pleasure and pain!

I am not in a flood plain under normal circumstances and our soil is very sandy so we are ok. I have 9.32 inches of rain as measured in my back yard manual gauge for the rain year so far. Normal for the year is ~11.5". We still have 3 rain months to go. Hopefully we continue to get more rain to break the back of this drought we have been in. The snow pack in the Sierras is the most important source of water for the valley in the spring and summer. It is at 200% of normal for this date. Fingers crossed it keeps piling up!

Hopefully this will fill up the reservoirs.

Much improvement in storage if this keeps up, We have three storms queued up, We could break the back of the drought. I was planning on taking my front lawn out next spring because it is our biggest water user and not really justifiable. Now I will be fertilizing it instead .

Good morning everyone, finally got my espresso machine last night!

@RosaB I am a coffee snob, I roast my own green beans mostly from Sweet Maria's online, I have a $500 Baratza Grinder and Pull my espresso shots on a Rancilio Silvia.

What brand and model did you get?

Love sweet Maria's lol. Modded an old heavy duty air pop corn maker to roast. There's nothing like freshly ground by the batch! I'm also a big French press fan with the right grind

Nice looking sauce .....
Or is it gravy hahaha ( how to start a heated debate then walk away and watch others disagree lol!!!).
I love making sauce and even though my grandparents and my wife's mother came from Abruzzi their sauces are distinctly different. Hell even from my wife to her sister to her mom their quite close but I can easily tell the difference lol!
