I’d plant it. But probably not eat any this year.

Ie, save what you get and plant that out again next year.

I might eat some of next years.

It won’t do very much this year but that’s OK, you weren’t going to eat it this year ahyways?

JMHO.

Yeah, that’s what we were thinking. Add in stuff like pasta or rice when he cooks it at work.

Maybe precook the pasta or rice for that week and portion it so it’s easy to grab and go in the mornings.

He loves venison stew, so this would be cheap and easy to do. And not wrack my brain trying to figure out what he wants for lunch tomorrow.

One reason we’re planning to tithe with our plague check, and spend a large portion of the rest in local small businesses.

Any temperature between 40 and 90, I have a window or door open and the a/c off.

Edge Master Class 2009: GEORGE CHURCH & J. CRAIG VENTER: A SHORT COURSE ON SYNTHETIC GENOMICS
Event Date:[ 7.24.09 ]

https://www.edge.org/event/edge-master-class-2009-george-church-j-craig-venter-a-short-course-on-synthetic-genomics

life as we know it is transformed not by the error catastrophe of radiation damage to our genetic processes, but by the far greater upheaval caused by discovering how to read genetic sequences directly into computers, where the code can be replicated exactly, manipulated freely, and translated back into living organisms by writing the other way. “We can program these cells as if they were an extension of the computer,” George Church announced, and proceeded to explain just how much progress has already been made.

The first day’s lectures took place at Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket laboratories...

My wife just scored an 8-quart Ninja Foodi just before house arrest...makes a ton of food quickly; easy clean up! Does anyone else own one?

Yes, I do. But I dont have the problems you have so more willing to try things when in quarantine. Only problem I Have had is that herxheimer weirdness with Lauricidin.

However, I just had a traumatic experience when I had to go out over hearing employees talking and then getting too close to me. multiple employees and multiple times in one aisle...so now I am on watch for having Wuhan Flu and waiting for an explanation from the company for more details. I suspect due to HIPaA they wont tell me. I was triple masked but sheesh..the employees didnt give a damn about the six feet rule. One of the employees is back after having had it. but as we know..people go back too soon and shed it.

So I can’t experiment until I know I dont have it..or if I do then use it has hail mary situations before going to hospital

Even Stevie Ray Vaughan's statue in Austin is wearing a mask.

so here is a review from amazon on the mung bean cytokine storm issue. I thought it was interesting given the lupus drug connection to COVID-19

Erica Sullivan
5.0 out of 5 stars This product is amazing. First my background
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2016
Size: 30Product Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase
If you have chronic inflammation, this product is for you.
This product is amazing. First my background, I have had Lupus with primarily musculoskeletal pain in my hands and feet and chronic fatigue since 2009. Before that I was a go getter and avid DIYer at home. Now I am lucky to feel up to doing anything at all except for the necessity of work. I’ll have spurts of energy but usually not for long. My MD also put me on Cymbalta for the off the shelf use for the hand pain and although the Cymbalta did work, I eventually weaned off of it after about a year because I didn’t like the side effects. Unable tolerate the returning pain, I reluctantly restarted Cymbalta. My pain is now gone but I still have the same lackluster energy.
I am also an RN of many years who is finally doing online schooling for the RN-BSN program. In my pathophysiology course this semester we were reading about cytokines, histamines and its effects on inflammation. I began to wonder if there were H5 histamine blockers out there…still years away in research mode…and the cytokine blockers. …Which is what led me to this product.
I ordered some on Amazon and after 5 days on this - I FEEL LIKE A NEW PERSON. Actually I feel like the person I was before I was diagnosed with Lupus. I awake with energy, I feel motivated, and not surprising, even my mood has improved.
The only change in my life at this moment has been the introduction of this medication about a week ago. I am convinced it is due to this product and will continue to take this produict. Thank you for reading my very long review.

We needed some lawn mower parts from Lowes and it took about a week longer to get than promised.

Those sound nice, haven’t heard of those before now.

We’ve got a regular old instant pot.

Love it.

Our air fryer is also our toaster oven, so really can’t compare.

I see one of the foodis has a dehydrator. It would be nice to have an extra one of those.

I do steer clear of people in the great outdoors and have ordered masks online for shopping purposes (right now, I can do a makeshift one from a T-shirt, but that’s about it — no masks available, even in the auto parts store).
