Tile guys were MIA on Wednesday and Thursday which of course has now thrown our whole schedule off.
Yesterday’s excuse was a flat tire. Which is hard to believe because when we had tile work done on our last place, that same excuse was given. What are the odds, right?
The whole situation is making me {and the HH} pretty cranky.
I need to get out and ride my bike more. Riding my bike makes me happy.
I have tried TWICE now to get a flat of chives going this summer to no avail.
Both times were indoors with plenty of light.
I’ve never had that happen before. I’m beginning to think it has something to do with the little Jiffy Greenhouse and not me. I think I’ll try one more time, but in a different container/set up. If that doesn’t work, then it’s got to be the seeds.
Since when is cookie dough not edible?
And last but not least, what do you think about this light fixture? I can’t decide if it has that beachy/coastal vibe or if it looks like something from the 70’s.
Also, how is a bunch of twine/dried twigs next to a light bulb a good idea?
That’s it. That’s all I’ve got.
I hope you have a good, stress free weekend. Peace out.

When I taught cooking we would make edible cookie dough as a tasty treat for our food safety unit. Students would heat the flour in multiple 1 minute rounds in the microwave stirring the flour in between until it hit the proper temperature to kill any e-coli that could be in it. The dough was also made with no eggs. I couldn’t buy raw pasteurized eggs at the grocer I was allowed to spend school money at.
The dough tasted the same but when at room temp would be a bit softer.
The students would roll the chilled dough in balls and then roll in other items like mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or chopped nuts.
There was a lady that died from eating raw cookie dough that was in the news years ago!
My chives didn’t come up either. My seeds were more than 1 year old. I’ll buy some new 2025 seeds.
I wouldn’t want to spend that kind of money on a light I would have to vacuum to clean. Heck no!

how did i not know about the raw flour ?!?! my mom was very strict about the raw egg thing but that doesn’t mean we didn’t sneak raw dough when she wasn’t looking!!
