I finished off a loaf of zucchini bread...
9:34 am

9:35 am

I have cold chicken, but am saving it for dinner :D
9:36 am

weird that i have four fours that i can't find
9:36 am

I found two small filets reduced to half price last week. They are nicely aged for tonight's dinner.
9:37 am

Sounds good. I haven't had filets for a long time.
9:38 am
mael

do you grill them, bea?
9:38 am
BzznBea

Yes.
9:38 am
mael

nice. what are you planning for sides?
9:39 am
BzznBea

baked potato, corn on the cob and marinated tomatoes
9:39 am
mael

that all sounds delicious!
9:43 am
rururocks

what do you marinate the tomatoes in?
9:43 am
Cathyar

oles
9:44 am
Cathyar

oops...sorry
9:44 am
BzznBea

a good olive oil and white balsamic
9:44 am
rururocks

clue blurt
9:45 am
rururocks

oh.. that sounds kind of like what i do. I use lemon balsamic and olive oil and fresh sage
9:46 am
BzznBea

I have fresh sage. I'll add that tonight.
9:46 am
BzznBea

I'm the only one that eats them.
9:48 am
rururocks

my tomatoes have been awesome this year. I have tons of them too.
9:49 am
rururocks

I go easy on the salt in the marinade too bea.. not sure what you do
9:49 am
mael

mine haven't ripened yet
9:49 am
mael

and it's a battle with the woodchucks this year
9:49 am
mael

but the poor things are thirsty, we're in a bad drought
9:50 am
rururocks

how much does a woodchuck drink?
9:50 am
BzznBea

I have been using less salt for some time now since I live in an old folks home.
9:50 am
mael

probably as much as it chucks
9:50 am
MollyL

Put some water out for them. Maybe they will leave your tomatoes alone
9:50 am
rururocks

ha... :D
9:51 am
mael

I'm going to try that
9:51 am
rururocks

they could have a woodchuck pool party
9:51 am
MollyL

Or cage the tomatoes
9:51 am
rururocks

sounds like a tomato zoo
9:52 am
mael

I'd need a lot of fencing, molly. I have a lot of tomatoes, mainly paste tomatoes
9:52 am
BzznBea

do you use roma, mael?
9:52 am
hokie carla

I'm back - was 79F but 82% humidity so felt like 1000
9:53 am
mael

yeah, roma and san marzanos
9:53 am
rururocks

ori recommended a tomato to me for paste besides the Roma.. that's supposed to be good
9:53 am
MollyL

It is disgustingly humid here
9:53 am
hokie carla

I would like to plant veggies next year at my new house but don't want to attract bears.
9:53 am
rururocks

how do you guys take the humidity.. it would kill me
9:53 am
BzznBea

san marzano or delish.
9:54 am
BzznBea

are delish
9:54 am
rururocks

san marzano.. that's it
9:54 am
hokie carla

I had so much sweat running off my face and into my eyes I couldn't see .
9:54 am
mael

I can't handle the humidity at all
9:54 am
MollyL

San Marzano are the best
9:54 am
mael

the san marzanos make a great sauce!
9:54 am
rururocks

i'm hoping you went for a run or something hokie
9:54 am
mael

I grew them from seed this year so they're a little late to the party
9:54 am
BzznBea

I walk around with one of grandma's hankies and stay in the house as much as possible.
9:54 am
MollyL

Well, you either shelter in place with the air conditioning or you deal with it
9:55 am
hokie carla

just walked winston, ruru
9:55 am
MollyL

Grandma's hanky, how Southern and delicate of you. Do you have a parasol too?
9:55 am
rururocks

oh..
9:55 am
hokie carla

I need to make some sweat hankies with thinner fabric scraps
9:56 am
rururocks

(and pearls?)
9:56 am
MollyL

She had to have something to clutch
9:56 am
BzznBea

no, parasols are hokie. sorry carla.
9:56 am
rururocks

I was imagining something more fun hokie :D
9:56 am
hokie carla

bea is a midwesterner, I bet her grandma is not a southerner
9:56 am
MollyL

Sweat hankies?
9:57 am
BzznBea

you are correct.
9:57 am
hokie carla

that's what bea just said she uses hankies for, sweat
9:57 am
BzznBea

sometimes i use a bandana
9:57 am
rururocks

at least Bea's home state got the abortion thing right good on you Kansas
9:58 am
MollyL

We keep spray bottles of water in the fridge in the summer. My son douses himself with the cold water when he comes in from his walks.
9:58 am
mael

it was a very heartening result, ru!
9:58 am
BzznBea

yes, i'm proud of them for that.
9:58 am
rururocks

freaked out a bunch of republicans that's for sure
9:59 am
BzznBea

and it was such a wide margin.
10:00 am
BzznBea

there were a lot of first time voters that hit the polls and a lot of them were young women
10:00 am
rururocks

I hope the country wakes up to this devastating change in law and the implications of several others that can fall
10:00 am
mael

I really really hope so
10:00 am
mael

bea, and in a primary too!
10:01 am
rururocks

and I hope that Clarence Thomas' wife has to testify before the Jan 6th committee
10:01 am
rururocks

that will be fun
10:01 am
BzznBea

I can't believe they didn't pass the cap on insulin. all those old men have their hands in the big pharmas pocket
10:02 am
rururocks

I wonder how Bush feels about nominating that asshole now
10:02 am
rururocks

you got that right bea
10:02 am
rururocks

money talks
10:02 am
mael

that is astounding to me, how is it possible that such a no brainer was taken out of the bill
10:02 am
mael

I'm very happy the bill passed, don't get me wrong, but geez
10:03 am
BzznBea

and the monarch has joined the endangered list that breaks my heart
10:03 am
hokie carla

geez most of my extended family is on insulin
10:03 am
rururocks

<---has several butterfly bushes
10:03 am
mael

there are only three companies that manufacture/sell insulin in the US, someone should have a good look at their donations...
10:03 am
hokie carla

you'd think a bit of the old men would be too but I guess they can afford whatever
10:04 am
BzznBea

plant milkweed
10:04 am
rururocks

exactly mael
10:04 am
mael

ru, butterfly bushes unfortunately don't help! you need to plant native plants and milkweed :)
10:04 am
rururocks

milkweed?
10:04 am
hokie carla

I thought milkweed was a weed, you can plant it?
10:04 am
hokie carla

it doesn't just come up on its own?
10:04 am
BzznBea

yes you can plant it
10:04 am
mael

yes! there are many species, plant whichever is native in your area. You can get seeds or plants
10:05 am
hokie carla

the monarch likes that?
10:05 am
BzznBea

and plant more than one variety
10:05 am
mael

it's the only species monarchs can lay eggs on
10:05 am
mael

without milkweed we will have no monarchs
10:06 am
rururocks

why aren't they planting milkweed in the wild?
10:06 am
hokie carla

I just saw a caterpillar on my walk that I thought was a monarch, but google search says it wasn't.
10:06 am
BzznBea

was it a swallowtail?
10:07 am
MollyL

Be careful with millkweed. It's poisonous
10:07 am
mael

because planting milkweed requires field management. Most towns/states are OBSESSED with mowing every scrap field the own, along highways, between fields, medians, everything
10:07 am
BzznBea

we aren't going to eat it.
10:07 am
mael

it's only poisonous if you drizzle the sap down your throat. It's an irritant, but it
10:08 am
mael

but it's not dangerous
10:08 am
hokie carla

I will check. just googled caterpillars in NC and it looks like maybe the moth or eastern tent. whatever it is was in VA where I grew up too,
10:08 am
hokie carla

ok, was definitely not a swallowtail
10:08 am
BzznBea

swallowtail and monarch cats look very much alike
10:08 am
MollyL

Google says it is poisonous to animals
10:09 am
mael

they aren't going to eat it
10:09 am
mael

even cattle leaves it alone
10:09 am
rururocks

i can't have poisonous stuff in my yard.. I don't trust my dogs
10:10 am
BzznBea

can you plant it on the outside of your fence?
10:10 am
mael

that's why monarchs lay their eggs on it. The caterpillars have evolved to eat it and become slightly toxic themselves, so birds don't prefer them
10:10 am
MollyL

Yeah, and considering Carla's dog eats mulch, I wouldn't have it around house pets
10:10 am
rururocks

i have to pick up plums every morning during the season
10:11 am
rururocks

so they don't try to eat them
10:11 am
mael

actually, dogs eating the caterpillars is probably more of a concern than the plant itself
10:11 am
rururocks

there is a trail behind my house I can plant some bea
10:11 am
rururocks

I might look into that
10:11 am
mael

yuo can support the monarchs without milkweed, they still need all the nectar plants for the adults :)
10:11 am
hokie carla

yeah, he eats some kind of weed out in our yard, not milkweed, but no idea what it is. I always yell at him when he starts. we also have some morning glory that apparently the seeds are poisonous to dogs.
10:12 am
rururocks

i have nectar plants
10:12 am
MollyL

I would never plant anything poisonous in a yard where pets will be. No sense taking a chance.
10:13 am
rururocks

especially one of my dogs will eat anything
10:13 am
mael

natives though? because butterfly bush is the equivalent of a twinkie, no nutritional value
10:13 am
BzznBea

you can also plant bronze fennel and parsley for the swallowtails
10:13 am
rururocks

natives I believe.
10:14 am
rururocks

i'd have to research
10:14 am
hokie carla

well, apparently I have maxed out at 149 words today. have not found one word since my walk. still have 4 tiles with 5 left.
10:14 am
rururocks

I don't think we have swallowtails here
10:14 am
mael

excellent ru! It's such an important thing we can do for the environment! (It's my soapbox, I'll come off it)
10:15 am
rururocks

I don't get humming birds though.. it's weird
10:15 am
rururocks

at least I've not seen them
10:15 am
hokie carla

maybe you just can't see them
10:15 am
mael

we get so many hummingbirds these days, they mostly feed around dawn though
10:15 am
MollyL

The Smithsonian has a pollinator garden that has a butterfly sanctuary. So do a lot of other large gardens around the country.
10:16 am
MollyL

Hummingbirds are really fast
10:16 am
mael

the best thing we could do is turn parts of all yards into wildlife habitats, it would truly change things for the better
10:16 am
BzznBea

my master gardener group has a large pollinator garden. I work there every Friday.
10:17 am
mael

I built one for our elementary school
10:17 am
rururocks

I'm going to hand out flyers to woodchucks in mael's area
10:17 am
hokie carla

our new neighborhood has a butterfly garden too
10:17 am
mael

good job bea :)
10:18 am
BzznBea

I also have a pollinator garden in my yard and am going to clean out another bed this fall.
10:18 am
rururocks

ori puts out a lot of stuff for pollinators
10:18 am
hokie carla

finally found a word!
10:18 am
mael

the woodchucks are a pain, but they gotta eat too. We have 12 acres, they could leave my veggies alone though
10:19 am
hokie carla

we have voles or moles tunneling the crap out of our yard
10:20 am
hokie carla

we also had a lot of chipmunks but haven't seen them lately. do they tunnel? maybe they are the havoc wreakers.
10:20 am
MollyL

Wow, twelve acres in taxachusetts?
10:20 am
mael

yeah
10:20 am
mael

not in town :)
10:21 am
hokie carla

you know she's not in town with her chickens
10:21 am
rururocks

are you farmers mael?
10:21 am
hokie carla

unless the cities up there allow that
10:21 am
mael

some cities do!
10:22 am
mael

we have a small homestead, just chickens, an orchard, veggie garden, and a hayfield
10:22 am
mael

the orchard is in rough shape this year, they drought is TERRIBLE
10:22 am
rururocks

ah..
10:22 am
mael

I keep the rest for the pollinators :)
10:23 am
rururocks

and the woodchucks
10:23 am
rururocks

I've never seen a woodchuck in person
10:23 am
BzznBea

They are big!
10:23 am
mael

I've seen... many. They're cute and chunky but love to decapitate plants
10:23 am
rururocks

oh
10:23 am
rururocks

are they related to beavers?
10:24 am
hokie carla

is a woodchuck a groundhog? you've never seen one?
10:24 am
rururocks

or gophers
10:24 am
hokie carla

I believe both are rodents
10:24 am
rururocks

I've not seen a groundhog in person either
10:24 am
mael

a woodchuck is just another name for a groundhog
10:24 am
hokie carla

gosh, I see them standing by the roads all the time
10:25 am
mael

it's bigger than a gopher but looks just like one
10:25 am
MollyL

That is because they all hang out at mael's estate
10:25 am
rururocks

are they hitching a ride to Mael's place?
10:25 am
hokie carla

I've also heard them called whistlepigs
10:26 am
rururocks

whistlepigs are bottles of bourbon to me
10:26 am
hokie carla

looks like it's also a marmot
10:26 am
mael

they're a type of marmot, yes. They tunnel like jerks
10:27 am
mael

whistlepig the bourbon is named after woodchucks :)
10:27 am
mael

and it is excellent
10:27 am
mael

the whiskey, I mean
10:27 am
hokie carla

groundhogs are crucial habitat engineers per wiki
10:28 am
rururocks

it's a bit fiery to me ..
10:28 am
rururocks

I prefer Elmer T Lee, and WH Weller, and Jefferson Ocean
10:29 am
MollyL

I wonder where they get their engineering degrees. Woodchuck U?
10:29 am
hokie carla

well, I can sit around here all day not finding words, but I guess I'll do some things.
10:29 am
rururocks

Tunnel State molly
10:31 am
rururocks

I'd best get to work and get something accomplished today
10:31 am

So that how much wood could a woodchuck chuck thing is really an engineering problem. Calling Good Will/Woodchuck Hunting.
