nocturne

I think if we had put ours on a riser it would have been different. But the utility closet had such little room it was a real pain. It also ended up ripping the linoleum when I was pushing it back one time.

I got so sick of replacing the pump in ours i replaced the washer. Mine was 13 years old i believe, and I replaced the pump 6 times i think. Half of them in a year or so.

As someone who rides an escooter daily all I have to say is…

It is from a group text yesterday, prior to that, no idea.

I used to keep 2 dead inner tubes lining my mountain bike tires. But now I have a road bike and there is barely enough room for the tube needed much less an extra.

Years ago I switched from dead tubes to a tire liner. Again unsure if that would fit in my road bike tire.

I found a site that lists used tanks. ibctoterecycling.com/…/used-ibc-containers-for-sa…

Maryland had talked about making our illegal to collect any rainwater, be it from your roof or anywhere else. I no longer live there so I never kept up with it.

This is where I get mine if you are unable to make your own. www.butlerfoods.com/product-list.html

They contain 1 ingredient, soybeans. I imagine they are made into a paste, extruded, and dried.

Jb weld was going to be my suggestion too. Good luck OP

I love when I get a lot of onions and peppers. I grill them up then make a wrap with them, usually the grilled veggies, cheese, cyclospora free lettuce, and ranch dressing.

I have also done the veggies on a sub roll with cheese and soy curls for a cheese “steak”.

Same with the veggies, soy curls, in a tortilla for a fajita.

Carrots make a good carrot salad, raisins, and a mayo like sauce, I think it might actually be Cole slaw sauce.

My go to way to cook carrots is in a pan with a little veggie bouillon, some honey, maybe a dash of cayenne. Cook covered until almost fork tender, uncover cook and them until the bouillon is mostly gone and thickened, add a little butter to further thicken the liquid.

They can also be boiled/steamed and mashed with potatoes, or other root veggies. Diced browned onions added to mashed potatoes add a great depth of flavor too.

Depending how small the baby potatoes are, I cook mine in a pressure cooker with copious amounts of salt (only use potatoes with the peel fully intact or they absorb too much salt), they come out really tender, and are great served with some butter.

Most if not all of this can be frozen once cooked.

As for the cucumbers, there was a dude on TikTok that had some viral videos of some great cucumber salads. I think his name was Logan or something. The videos were so popular a lot of places were experiencing cucumber shortages.

I have recipes for most of suggestion’s and Will gladly share if anything interests you.

This coupled with solar canals would be amazing.
