Weird in the sense that I found a KitchenAid mixer with 3 attachments & bowl in darn near new condition both cosmetically and functionally for EIGHTEEN DOLLARS at Goodwill in Johnson City, Tennessee!
To top it off, the sweet people in line with me were so excited for me for finding it (I wasn’t hiding my excitement at all. It was a group celebration at that point) they anonymously paid for it.
Crying into my whipped cream. Merry Christmas, and BLESS YOU if you’re in this group! 🎄

JAR OF SAND FROM ALL OF THE BEACHES YOU TRAVEL TO- such a fun idea

Friends, I learned about this spice here so bought it…. A year ago and never tried. What a huge loss! This is now our “go to” on every veggie or meat. Has a slight spicy but tangy lime. You would be amazed at what the lime does to your food. I will never be without it again! Fantastic!

I'm going to edit this to add my pizza dough recipe because I keep being asked. Also, KitchenAid is not a key factor in this recipe. It just happens to be in my picture. The recipe will be at the bottom.
I started making "frozen pizza" to have on hand. I can make 4 for my freezer for a fraction of the cost of traditional frozen pizzas. I par bake my crust. Then cool and top them. Wrap them and pop into the freezer. I then just bake in the oven at 400 for about 15 minutes.
My family loves them!
Pizza dough
This will make two 12-in pieces. Sometimes you can make three depending on how thick you want the crust.
Mix one heaping tablespoon of yeast to
1 cup warm water, 1 Tablespoon yeast or one packet and a tablespoon of sugar. Let the yeast bloom. Add in 1 tbsp of olive oil and 1 cup of flour. Mix it into a batter. Add a teaspoon of salt and then start adding flour a little at a time until it comes together and you can knead it into a ball. Usually about two cups of flour depending on your humidity. After you knead it into a ball then put it in an oiled bowl, cover it with Saran wrap and let it rise. I put mine in my oven with the light on and no heat. Usually takes about an hour or less. Once it's risen, punch it down and create your pizza.
Par bake your pizza crust For 5 minutes on 400. Let it cool and then put your toppings on and freeze it.

My mum bought this bed frame years ago and intended on making it into a bench seat. Last week I was taking rubbish away for her and she asked me to take it because she would never get around to doing it. It’s her birthday Monday so I thought I’d do it as a gift

I don’t know what the circled items are called, I only know the front of the house was starting to detach so they did this. This is our next door neighbor’s house and we are wondering if we may need to do this. There is an addition on the back of our 1900 house that seems to be detached a little. I was going to look up this procedure but don’t know what’s it’s called.
Any information is appreciated

Wasps. They’re desperate right now. They’re starving and going to die soon as the hives have basically shut down and only the queens will survive winter. If they’re a bother put slices of apples, oranges, bananas, or other fruit in another part of the yard an hour or so before you head out. They’ll find the treats and they’ll be fully focused on them and won’t be searching. These are what is left of a few of the apple and banana slices I put out a couple of days ago. I put out some more and instantly there were wasps showing up.

The point is to keep them busy so they leave you alone so you can enjoy the nice weather while we still have it.

Milkweed pods are edible, and one of the most delicious wild vegetables available to foragers. As a food, milkweed still resides on the foraging fringes, or on rare restaurant menus, despite having been valued by Native Americans in regions throughout its range. Like okra, milkweed pods herald sweltering weather and are ready to harvest when crickets warm up and cicadas begin to zing. While succulent okra originates in Africa, and is grown as an annual crop in the United States, common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is a cold-hardy perennial indigenous to eastern North America. It has edible shoots, buds, flowers, and immature pods. And it is one of the most valuable milkweed hosts for monarch butterfly larvae.
Just get them while they're young and small or they get fibrous and less pleasant to eat. These pods are being the size wanted to eat, and will instead go to seed 😍

So, out of dull curiosity, I attached this extremely strong magnet to my home's I-beam to see if it would hold my weight (almost 200lbs).
Well, it does, and quite effectively I might add, but now I've no idea how to remove it....

My wife is completely addicted to “flavored” sparkling water (I call it static water). And when she’s finished with her cans, she sets them in the sink upside down and that’s where they would live forever if I didn’t eventually toss them in the recycling bin. I’ve asked her why she does this and she claims she’s “draining them”. So NOW I wait a couple days and then ask her if they’re done draining and request permission to recycle them. Each time she says yes. My initial hope was that she’d take note of my passive-aggressiveness and simply start disposing of them herself. This has not been the case. The psychological warfare that takes place in this house is next level.

These are Beautyberries and they're edible! They're just not something you'll want to eat raw by the handful. However, you'll find them delicious once cooked and used in recipes. Beautyberry honey jello makes a colorful, tasty seasonal dessert. Native Americans used this beautiful bush as an insect repellent, for their fevers, and to combat stomach problems.
They are native to east and southeast Asia (where the majority of the species occur), Australia, Madagascar, south-eastern North America and South America.
The American beautyberry (Callicarpa Americana) is native to Georgia and grows magnificently in Texas, Florida, and near pinelands and wooded forests.
Always do you own research and correctly identify a plant before eating.
