Goodness... in that case, let me drop a few online resources from some folk who have done this before since I'm a newbie

Food 52: 6 Ways to Repurpose Leftover Vanilla Bean Pods

Cheatin' Wheat: Eight Ways to Use a Vanilla Bean

remove the space, change (dot) to a dot, and take out the line break for the full URL. Not sure why Lit is being glitchy with this one)

Wiki How: How to Use a Vanilla Bean

Lots more sites and videos out there, but these are the ones I kept coming back to when I decided to try my hand at the extract.

Thank you very much!

Sadly, day one as an orphan. Slightly surreal but, at 89, she had a proverbial "good innings." My sister was with her at the end, which was swift and painless, just about all anyone can hope for.
Reunited with Dad and her beloved dogs, I think she will be happy.

My heart goes out to you and yours.... hoping and praying for peace and comfort for you all.
Even when "it's time" it's still tough...

How is she doing today? Poor thing!

She is doing well and was released yesterday.

I am sorry for your loss. May you find peace in your memories.

Wow! A year!

What an accomplishment! Almost 3000 pages and abt 52,000 posts.

Great friends, (I’ve met two of ya), a good vibe and GREAT conversation.

Thanks to you all!!!

Attraction, not promotion.


I've only met one uh yas.


Give me time . . . .

Dreams send us messages. ️

I wonder . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I'll take intellectually and emotionally. While I like physically strong men, I have no use for a man who needs to subdue me with force. BTDT. Not going back.

Is subduing even necessary on any of those levels???

 

[Wat_Tyler]

People are stupid!

Even the so-called Smart Ones . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I'm not violently physical. You have no worries of me hurting you that way. However, I can be unnervingly quiet when a "conversation" is warranted!

Ah, the cruelest beating of all.

I really love old buildings!

Any more, I resemble that remark. I'm "renovating" buildings half my age.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I hate Walmart, too.

They opened a new Menard's Out West. The Landlady and I gave it a wander-through and couldn't for the life of us figure out - why???


Hobby Lobby struck me exactly the same way.

I have a sander for feet, too. I bought it to use on my husband's feet. It does make them nice and smooth. Trims those hooves right down!

Pasture Poodles require regular pedicures. They don't run around enough to keep their hooves naturally machined off.

Weigh in tomorrow

I have had a decent week....

I'm back to losing again since the PF fiasco with my foot, which cut out the exercise portion of things. I'm almost back to where I was when my foot acted up.


w000t!!!

There is something to be said for a righteous Fatwah!

All of my fatwahs are righteous.


And my jihads???

B&J's Phish Food used to be my favorite. Then I found Chocolate Hazelnut Marscarpone ice cream made by Kroger Private Selection. I can't find that anymore. Now, I tend to like almost anything by Tillamook. It's a local-ish dairy in Oregon. Their ice cream has the most marvelous mouth feel!

Nice image, and very accurate.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

K+ and I will save you!

I likely need all the he'p I can get.

Happy birthday to all of us. And many, many thanks to @Wonderer67 for starting it!

Raising us from the otherwise steamy sortid cesspools and murky backwater eddys that constitute this place.

I think i speak for everyone in offering our condolences. Although we may not understand or comprehend your loss, we will be here either in mass or individually to support, listen, or be a non judgemental sounding board for you. Please let us know if there's anything we can do. And remember even though she's gone to a better place, you'll always be able to cherish her memories...
