Largest moth I have seen
Comments (11)Serious butterfly collections are actually useful. When I say "serious," I mean ones where the butterflies are mounted properly, documented properly, stored in conditions that preserve them, and the collection is available to researchers. Butterfly collections are invaluable tools to researchers who are putting together studies/books on lepidoptera. The official guide on Ohio butterflies that was published in '92 constantly refers to information gleaned from many different butterfly collections the researchers personally looked at. The official guide corrected some known "facts" because the researchers found some "facts" were based on somebody else misidentifying a butterfly. Without the preserved collections, those corrections could not have been made. I'm in no way suggesting everyone should start their own butterfly collection. A "serious" collection takes serious time. I had to put together a "serious" collection for an entomology class. Gobs of hours were involved. $ and a place to store it are considerations too. Not my cup of tea and I know the same would be true of almost all people....See MoreHave you seen this tile?
Comments (5)The 70s? maybe the 1870s. Gorgeous tile! Locally we have an amazing supplier of Mexican, South American and European styled tiles. Be ready to spend some $$$ though. Look all around the gallery, but here's one page I found that has some similar tiles, just not so washed out looking but close: Here is a link that might be useful: Tile...See MoreHave you seen these glasses anywhere?
Comments (9)Annac54, thank you for the Home Goods suggestion. lascatx - I know exactly what you mean! Oh why don't they keep making the same glass.... Have you looked at Replacements for either of your sets? You might find one or both :) carolmka - Thanks, I did try, but couldn't find the same one. Onedogedie - Thank you so much!! I have signed up to be alerted when they get back in stock. I too was inspired by the cucumber recipe (I'll track down and post next, from the Perrier website). I'd like to have some non-alcoholic fun drinks in my repertoire. Hi cal_quail - I like those! I'm still hoping for just one set. I need to bite the bullet and actually contact (gasp) the company from whom I bought them in the first place!! Perrier Cucumber Drink Recipe follows (linked with pictures, too). I didn't quite understand the reference to gelatin, would that be the knox gelatin I haven't used in years? For this, a straw, a knife, a little imagination and lots of Perrier bubbles are enough to create a flavour-enhancing technique, with the addition of a few ingredients for an overall balance of flavour. Preparation Step 1: Remove the ends of the cucumber and stand it vertically, holding it steady on a chopping board. A mini cucumber is easier to manipulate. Run a test tube along the centre of the cucumber and push through the whole length to remove seeds. Discard the center which can be used to make other cocktails. Step 2: This technique will allow you to create a cucumber spiral using the blade of a knife. Reposition the test tube in the hollow formed in the centre of the cucumber. Carefully cut the cucumber around the test tube by turning the cucumber in the hand without moving the blade of the knife. Cut steadily to obtain a lovely cucumber coil. Step 3: Place the cucumber coil vertically at the bottom of a tumbler glass and stick it down with a few drops of gelatin. Sticking it to the gelatin is important as it will prevent the powerful Perrier bubbles from causing the coil to float in the glass. Step 4: Delicately uncoil the cucumber spiral inside the glass ensuring the bottom of the structure does not become unstuck. Hold the coil in place using a pick stuck into a cucumber ball fixed to the top of the glass. Step 5: In a mixing glass, place a lemon zest, a lime zest and an orange zest. Add the cold green tea and stir with a spoon for 15 seconds. Add the chilled Perrier and stir again for 5 seconds. Filter the mixture pouring directly onto the cucumber coil. Place a straw in the middle of the spiral and present with the Perrier bottle. Here is a link that might be useful: Perrier D-Tox...See MoreHave you seen this 3D woven tile? PICS
Comments (8)Dawn, you were right. I emailed the designer and she told me it's St. Petersburg. We don't have an AS dealer anywhere near to us, so I could order them through her. The price as shown in the mag is nearly $100 a sf plus shipping and tax. I could save about 50% by not using the inserts, but that's what makes the tile IMO. We need about 20sf, so this is a major purchase. We'll see after Christmas....See MoreSina Sadeddin Architectural Design
