Hi, friends!
Happy Wednesday, I hope your week is going well!
I had 3 drivers on my way home swerve into my lane and almost hit me tonight, but you know, now that I’m home and not getting back in a fucking car until Friday, I feel pretty good.
We haven’t had a recommendations NOT in a hot minute, so let’s do that. Also as per always, talk about whatever you want. 🙂
So if you like cherry tomatoes, highly recommend the Sweet 100 variety. I have exactly one planted, it doesn’t even get full sun, and it’s producing anywhere from 10-15 tomatoes a day. A DAY. That sucker is just going to town. Eventually I’ll just cut off the tops of it because I can’t deal anymore. Tomatoes for days.
I tried a yellow pear tomato last year on a whim and that thing produced like crazy but every goddamn tomato seemed to split even though I watered regularly and none of the other tomatoes had issues. Anyways, it had been a few years since I have grown a sweet 100 and holy crap did I forget how heavy the yield was!
Do not recommend: gnats
I forgot I had a closed trash can for toooooooo long (thanks to the compost bin and recycling, my kitchen trash takes a long time to fill now).
Anyways, now I got a fuckton of gnats. I’ve killed 4 since getting home, but also guarantee if any of the neighbors saw me trying to get them, they think I probably have a psychotic break and am hallucinating.
I went to the googles and I’m trying the jar with apple cider vinegar, sugar, and dish soap to see if that causes the remainder to drown.
A vaccum with a hose attachment is good for catching a lot, although some usually manage to hide and come out later.
Our longterm foster dog was licking a spot on her leg raw for some reason, and instead of a cone we put an inflatable donut collar on her.
It’s working pretty well to block her from licking,and it seems to be getting caught on things much less than a traditional cone.
The donuts are a lot cuter than the cone of shame and agreed, they seem to annoy the doggo a lot less.
For those Nebraskans that got blocked from Pornhub, I recommend…

I don’t like porn, it’s not my thing.
But also, banning access to porn sites is stupid. It’s certainly not going to prevent kids from learning about stuff nor protect them from sexual abuse (because that happens with people, not random porn site content).
Totally agree but I also drool over sweet corn! I haven’t had too much this season but damn I love corn on the cob!
Oh it’s been so good lately! I’ve been getting several of them each week.
