Comments (57)Interesting dish and I agree with, Mitch. This forum seems to have a developed a distinct "mean girls" quality which I think is emboldened by a pack mentality nurtured by their escape pod ;) I guess they don't see how rude their comments really are - is all an amusement. Carry, on Dcarch!!! Much more interesting and creative than seeing yet another roast chicken or baguette....See MoreFree-Range Greens (long)
Comments (9)Beautiful photography! I eat stinging nettles steamed & dandelions & pig weed. Planted ramp seeds 1 1/2 yrs ago & they just sprouted this spring!?! My personal suggestion, when harvesting ramps, I wouldn't pull the entire plant out of the ground. I see roots on them in your photo. Just cut very low down at soil level, but leave the plant in the ground. It will re-root & not be over-harvested, as if often the case with this plant....See MoreStuffing Corn?
Comments (12)Thank you everyone. We all know how wonderful it is to have sweet corn, and the only way to enjoy sweet corn is on the cob. However, for certain events, there is no way to eat and serve corn on the cob elegantly even with corn holders. I am crazy enough to try to deal with this problem which had distressed humanity for all these centuries. Corn on the cob without the cob! :-) Method: 1. Get ears of corn of similar diameter. 2. Cut corn into same length sections. 3. Put corn sections vertically in a pan ( I used a rectangular bread pan) and fill with water to just submerge the corn sections. You will need to weigh the corn down because they float. 4. Freeze the corn in water. 5. Take the ice block out from the pan with the corn sections frozen. 6. Find a spade wood drill bit of the same diameter as the cob in the corn. 7. With a drill (a drill press is the best) just drill the cob out from the corn sections. You now have corn on the cob without the cob. Serve the corn or stuff the corn while they are still frozen then steam or bake on a rack so the ice water can drain away. I told you I am crazy. :-) dcarch...See MoreMy turn to paint the exterior
Comments (34)This has been fun to watch! What a sweetie moonshadow is and I like that Potting Shed color, too. Can I throw out a suggestion that is unrelated to anything you've been asking? If the answer is no - STOP READING! Something that strikes me about your house is the big expanse of white with the garage doors. I don't mind the look at all and in fact, think the detail and mass of the rails and styles on the door itself and the trim around the door are what makes it look great. That said, (ducking here...) the trim on the rest of the house looks skimpy in comparison. Any chance at all (and now whispering...) that you'd be up for other changes before you paint?.... like beefing up the window and door trim and maybe the posts on the porch at the same time? Your house already has a lot of charm - with the new color and some moderate trim changes - ooh la la!...See Morefoodonastump
