another consideration leaving the roots, if dead, will help with soil and water retention. I cleared our veggie garden of bindweed, wild raspberries,and bittersweet this year. Most of it has come back.
My plan is to cut it to the ground, use leaf mulch,etc. to get the stuff to die and stay in place. Our home is in the local swale. Theres granite ledge beneath us, so the better I do at water retension, less basement flooding, etc. I am worried both about drought and flooding in our future…
Do you take library books on vacation? Starting to pack and despite having sooo many unread books of my own, was thinking of hitting the library, but then questioned taking a library book on a beach vacation.
Yep. I’m more than willing to pay for a replacement if something is destroyed. In fact, I took kids books from the library camping with us for Latte. I definitely endeavor to protect them, and did successfully. But yeah, she has some books she’s super into, I wanted to have the books she likes, therefore
Yeah I’m fine with taking library books on vacation. I haven’t actually tried this, but I’ve wondered if returning a book to a different library system might possibly get it returned to the correct library system through the same function as the intralibrary loans. But even if that doesn’t happen I’m fine with it.
I have an actual print subscription to the NYT and I love it. I like the food section and occasionally look at the online food stuff because they email me about it a lot. YMMV
Vacation is pretty much the only reason I own a kindle (and previously a nook, which I still technically own but the conversion/upload process is annoying now courtesy of obnoxiously planned obsolescence)–I can load it up and not worry about either the weight or messing up the library’s books.
Is there a love & money thread? Money & marriage/partnership, all the stuff that goes along with that. Joint accounts, merge, keep things separate, etc etc
As are we haha that is why I want to hear what other ppl do! A lot of options/directions to go down. I will start one tonight after my many interviews are over
My fave gazpacho has tomatoes, a bit of onion, cukes in it. It’s from a long-gone restaurant in L.A., the Velvet Turtle. You can find the recipe in the Los Angeles Times Cookbook, if you or your library have it.
the ramit thread?
