    moss. I couldn't imagine a mushroom being hosted by that
    aerial stuff.
    Likewise.
    I mean, it's possible, but they'd have to be
    pretty little.
    Not of a size to be useable for much of anything.

    There are whole categories of fungi that are
    too small to notice; it would be a stretch to
    call them mushrooms, though; mushclosets maybe.

    Eventually, though it may take a long time, untreated
    dead wood will get colonized, and one can only hope
    that what ends up growing there is a useful species.
    Don't know; I've not been observing it that closely. IIRC, it was established in spring of last year. Some stuff has been added since, some taken away, but I've not noticed anything odd growing from it.
    It's in the nature of the beast.

    After a rain.

    That's another experiment that could be done at no
    cost and truly minimal effort, of course assuming a
    year or ten hence you remember you've done it.
    Depends on if we're still living here or not. Next year, a good
    chance > we would be but don't know about 10 years from now.
    Of course there's always that uncertainty. The
    sky might fall on my head, too.
    T'is possible, could happen to any of us.

    If you're looking up, best not to keep wondering
    if it's going to fall.

    So far, so good for me.
    It seems Costco now would allow me to fill that
    prescription - probably found a "clean" supplier. The
    old-fashioned drug though makes almost as much sense,
    and the likely effect will be the death of the valsartan
    industry.
    So are you going with Costco or the old fashioned drug? Decisions,
    decisions.

    Old-fashioned - it's several times cheaper, and
    the side effects don't concern me much any more.

    I always hated green and yellow clothing.
    Obviously.
    Depends on the shade/hue of each for me. I won't wear certain hues of
    either one, but others, I will.

    I did have a favorite yellow Madras shirt once,
    but it had black and red and white in it as well.

    Did you crisp up the exterior afterward?
    Of the chops? No, they were usually grilled, and good as is, with just a
    bit of seasoning. The shanks, no, because the meat was falling off the
    bones tender after braising.

    Of the leg. Chops wouldn't want that additional
    step, I reckon.

    My crystal ball is all clouded up.
    Sounds about normal for most all of us. I'm just as glad I can't see into the future.
    If one could, that ability would increase anxiety for
    some but decrease it for others. A pointless gift.
    Probably increase it more than decrease for most people.

    Truth.

    Ah, the joys of dimming eyesight and wishful thinking.
    I know, I see a doctor in about a month to decide if my cataracts are to
    the point where they should be removed. Regular eye doctor says they're
    to the point, but wants the second opinion.

    I've been told that mine are ripening nicely.

    Hi Michael,

    Groan! Microgreens, but they're not green.

    dead wood will get colonized, and one can only hope

    After a rain.

    We had enough of that this past week--several inches from Sunday thru Wednesday. I didn't check out the wood chip pile, figured I might see
    what pops up next spring.

    If you're looking up, best not to keep wondering
    if it's going to fall.

    Nope, don't want a face full of whatever's in the air above.


    So far, so good for me.

    So are you going with Costco or the old fashioned drug? Decisions, decisions.

    Old-fashioned - it's several times cheaper, and
    the side effects don't concern me much any more.

    AFAIK, my doctor is keeping me with the Valsartan as the batch ES got
    was clean.


    Probably not. Mom is a nurse but the family has no qualms

    I did have a favorite yellow Madras shirt once,
    but it had black and red and white in it as well.

    Wore it pure out?

    Did you crisp up the exterior afterward?
    Of the chops? No, they were usually grilled, and good as is, with

    Of the leg. Chops wouldn't want that additional
    step, I reckon.

    The leg we got was boneless, tied. It was falling apart tender enough
    that we didn't try to crisp it up, just enjoyed it as is.

    Truth.

    That's my thoughts; somebody else might want to know what's going on in
    the future and not be concerned.
