Furmace cement is still a thing February 7, 2023
In reply to Needful Things: 1935: In the lower left corner, there's a tin of what I thought was "Furnace Cream," which I thought was odd. (Keeps your furnace young-looking?) Turns out it's furnace CEMENT: it's glue that isn't affected by heat (up to 2000°F!). And it's still available from Rutland in the handy 8 […]

Mandolin slicer February 7, 2023

Generally you have a guide that you use to push the vegetable/potato/whatever across the slicer, which keeps fingers away from the blade (in theory). […]

Hydroponic Towers Made Easy July 22, 2022
Hydroponic Towers Made Easy will chronicle my journey into the hydroponic gardening world. At first, I was intimidated by the mere thought of growing food in hydroponic towers. I thought, that’s WAY too much work and involves way too many aspects I know nothing about. Chemicals, pH balance, water pumps, special sprouting trays… UGH. Just […]

Travel with Mona to Argentina February 7, 2023

Many of Buenos Aires’s architectural landmarks were built in the early decades of the 20th century when the city exploded from colonial outpost to one […]

Here’s an overview comparison of three different kinds of mints that grow well for me in Anchorage, Alaska: […]
