Recipe if you're bold :-)
Comments (9)Thanks for the comments: "I always eye star fruit at the market... Now I guess I know not to buy it? Oh well. " "I always look at the carambola display at Publix but pass by because I don't know what to do with them. " Carambola turn yellow in the market they do NOT ripen like a mango, that means little or no sugar content lift. Tree ripened carambola are my fave fruit. Store bought carambola are bitter and not juicy I too wouldn't know what to do with one! "I was thinking to make chicken with loquat sauce, maybe?" Hmm.. My baby loquat only gives me a dozen or so fruits but I have a good source for them. They make a great addition to mixed fruit juices. Right now I'm saving wine bottles to do just what you said, make wine. My Italian ancestors (all of them made wine right up to my Dad) will roll in their graves :-) I pick my Carambola when they start to develop what I call "age spots" a light tan discoloration on the skin and they are at the peak of sugar and water content. I give them a little tug and if they come off it's off to the carambola slaughterhouse :-( I use them sliced and eaten, juiced, as a garnish, cooking where most fruits can be used and soon wine. Oh they make killer smoothies with some vanilla yogurt, powdered malt, half and half, a banana and ice!!!...See MoreRe: Alice I discovered a prblem with Salt today???
Comments (2)What do you mean by "reset the valve?" Time of day flashes when a power failure has occurred. Pressing any button should stop the flashing. During a power failure, the valve will stay in whatever position it was in when the failure occurred. Is something going on with your UPS? Go in to Master Programming mode and page through - write down all the settings and let's verify all is correct there. Do me a favor - let's keep further questions on the thread with the bulk of your information - I need to look at the details you have provided previously and it is easier if it's all in one place....See MoreHave you discovered anything new in your neighborhood?
Comments (42)I live in NYC and had been staying in my apartment up until a few days ago when I finally ventured out to get some fresh air and walk through a park near my apt. I was surprised to see many people without masks. Even tonight, after Cuomo said people must wear masks if they can't socially distance themselves, I saw people without masks. There is no way to socially distance yourself in the city. I'm wearing a mask but my glasses fog up. IDK how to solve that problem. But to answer the question, I was going out onto my fire escape for fresh air before this and there are many more birds in the area behind my building. I was thrilled to see cardinals, bluejays and robins. Before I lived in the city I was a backyard birdwatcher, so this made me very happy. They are probably always there, but with the new silence in the city they are more noticeable, you can hear them singing. I had a sparrow peeking in my window checking out my parakeet the other day, so funny! More creatures are comfortable coming out in the city with less people around. This is Riverside Park. Before this, the raccoons would just peek their heads out of those stones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhLitqe60Jw...See MoreFloof What have you discovered a new use for
Comments (26)Old white washcloths become dishcloths. I set them aside out of the washer, then bleach the bunch prior to washing. I don't even try to open most bottles anymore; just use the pliers that live in the kitchen junk drawer. I clip coupons to my shopping list with a clamp clip and use the clip to keep the list visible on my purse in a shopping cart. (I also like bpath's magnetic clip idea, but my fridge has a cabinet wood front, so no magnets there.) If I hold the list I will lose it several times in each shopping trip when I need to use both hands on something, then walk off without it. Like Elmer, I fold under a bit at the end of a roll of tape. I'm going to need to cut the tape when I use it next; can trim off that little bit....See More- 5 years ago
