Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 3900494, member: 9260"] start with reversing the celery in it's [I]plastic [/I]bag when you bring it home, 'knob' side out, not the 'leaf' side as sold. ponder the logic for this, and apply to similar produce. regularly trim the 'knobs' on lettuce, celery, cabbage, etc when they inevitably show decay. poke lots of extra vents in the carrot bag when you bring it home, also keep their 'knobs' to the open end. proper hydration and air flow are essential for longevity. and speaking of celery, potatoes, garlic, and such -who needs a calendar to inform us spring is here, when, even hidden in a fridge or another 'no sunlight' locale, they all start acting weird (bending stalks, garlic shoots, potato eye growths, etc). now, aboot this 'february is the nadir for our cardio system' stuff (don't fight the natural world, instead recognize and go with the flow!): exhibits a, doctors: 'heart health month!' and b, people: [I]valentines day! [/I]that month should be called crankyuary. at a family dinner recently, we were all laughing at the question 'who gets the longest run from a piece of used baking paper?' foil? fuhghettabout it. lol. signed, a yankee. last weeks episode at said dinner. auntie says 'my kitchen drawer won't work, who is going to fix it?' upon further review by the intelligentsia at hand, it turns out that a plastic bracket that the rail goes into, was broken at 2 places, with the piece lying on the bottom of the pot cubboard below. consensus pick? buy a new bracket. not me. recognizing the physics at hand (weightbearing and such), i remove the bracket, and re-attach the broken piece carefully with proper sized pieces of duct tape, including my signature move of stopping halfway thru, to heat that tape with a lighter, then more tape. auntie sez 'will it last?' and i say 'only for years.' 15 minutes job. dopey 'tzinhalz' (hungarian: 'firestarter' or mebbe german?) grammar school kid then starts whaling on the drawer (contrary is her middle name), until i say 'how long do you plan on living, cuz i can change that.'
