Chili crisp. Easy, cheap (homemade to make it as cheap as it gets), delicious

Is this a UV spectrum shot?

That’s not a demon. That’s an angel.

It isn’t common, and explode is an exaggeration for what I have seen - just cracked bark (though the crack was probably abrupt and loud). Montana gets some every now and again, so I am guessing at least some parts of Alberta do too. Nobody has made a big deal about it in the past outside of folks interested in trees. This is some weird media hype.

Or PFD

Having worked growing native plants for restoration efforts, I can say that this is 100% true. Our focus was on getting plants that will survive without any extra help after being put in the ground, so no fertilizer and limited water. A scraggly leaved plant with good roots would make it where something with lots of soft new growth would get eaten.

I think the best bet would be following recipes. That means finding recipes that minimize ‘to taste’ instructions. A lot can be done by look and texture, so you can be decent enough for anyone who’s not a snob. Also, err on the side of too little salt and put some on the table.

Just generally, you can get a report of your municipal water testing. The biggest safety variable that I would be worried about testing at home for is lead in the pipes between me and the treatment plant. That includes my house/building and the municipal pipes.

Now taste, that’s a to each their own situation. Sulfury water is my limit for sure. No thanks!

Way better: 37% of 72 = 72% of 37

(Or any other numbers)

I’ll take weapons that are as dangerous to the wielder as anyone else for $500…

Y’know, usually I get annoyed at adults when they try to randomly help me when I don’t want or need help. Now, because of this, I am just going to act like they have as pure of an intent as a toddler and treat them accordingly.
