We split the hive a couple months ago. I consider the new hive to belong to just hubby and me. If/when the original hive dies, I will consider their part in it over. They are a young (compared to us) couple with 3 boys. They have a business to run, they homeschool their boys. They are busy. I...

I wish you wanted us buy you out on our "joint" venture of bee keeping. It's obvious you have no time for it or interest in it. I know you will expect to get half of the honey, probably forever, for your initial investment of $285. We have put in the rest of the $$$ (probably $700-800 by now)...

As I say, I like glass containers for food storage because they don't react. Except when acted upon by gravity, meeting with hard surfaces.

Here's the post in the baking thread with the recipe and you can read the information in the following posts that might make it work better. Teaser: I'm making rhubarb jam, and this recipe DOES work well!

PB are my initials (after the Sally part), but I love-love-love peanut butter, so it's fitting! I'm a peanut butter snob, though. I haven't eaten store bought in years, because home made is much better.

It was tasty, but the custard broke and was watery. I'm going to make it again and do it differently. It's not something I'd serve to anyone other than hubby and me. I guess it's hard to bake a custard and have it work well...? Don't know that much about them. That's what I was told.

I did not eat as much of the rhubarb custard as I did. (WAAAY too much sugar. Tasty, though...)

Yup. I think we have over $1000 into it. About $350-400 is for the plants I bought for them. I wouldn't have bought these particular plants -- or even heard of them! -- if it weren't for the bee club meetings. And we left them all the honey last winter (our first winter), so the harvest has...

I wish I had another cup of coffee 8" away from my hand. Ok, I'll get up and go make another pot.

Does under your chin count? :gig

So far, nothing is going on here! Boring is good. :thumbsup

Thanks. This is all well south of us, but there is a general warning for our area. There are more storms on the way.

And Portage is getting another tornado.

They have warnings in the whole general area. So far, nothing going on here where I am.

But what I really wish is that a tornado didn't hit Portage, MI area about an hour ago.

I wish I could say I didn't roll my ankle going down the stairs. Just a bit, but it's tender. I have ice on it now.

Finally, someone said, "You need to go to the heart center in Grand Rapids." It took another 25 minutes to get an ambulance there to take her.

Apparently not at that hospital.

This is what my neighbor has. She is feeling "pretty good right now," by her own words. I wish I could say she got stellar treatment. I wish I could say that I'm proud of the way her doctors cared for her. I wish her own cardiologist did not tell her, "You fell through the cracks. We should...

I heard a man talk about having to fire people, and that he didn't really have a hard time doing it. In his former job as an oncologist, he sometimes had to tell people they had cancer and less than a year to live. He said telling them that they were fired was a piece of cake compared to that.
