I doubt I would be able to make what you suggest, but I am certainly willing to buy some of the bee hotels described:)) What do you think about those?? |

I follow the standard safety precautions. When they're unloaded they can be handled with abandon as with no ammo they are nothing but expensive paperweights. If you have a good pitching arm they can be thrown and conk somebody on the head so they will see stars. But I'd rather keep my firearm close and not abuse it in such a manner. |

I can't seem to let them alone; too much stirring on my part. By the time they are ready to eat it looks like the lawn mower has had a go at them. I stick with the canned variety as I don't have that compulsion to stir, stir, stir, stir, stir, stir. |

It says thaw. Got it. It says do not over cook. There is so much water to leach out that they are never not over cooked. I will fry in butter only to dump a cup of fluid then add butter or whatever. What is the right way to cook these little scallops? > I want a maple finish but no way to not over cook. Wtf am i doing wrong? I would dump the scallops in boiling water for less than a minute and then drain and sauce it up with a mix of mayo and Sriracha. Alternatively, you could drain the scallops as best you can and add an acid such as lime juice and let it set a while and then sauce it up with a mix of mayo and Sriracha. What's getting popular over here is scallops served Japanese style - this includes the mantle part of the scallop but not the guts. It's less boring than regular scallop. https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared/3KUjxnfDQbe_Z4KyQRzB3Q.FnN_L0rmDfzHTljn2-rM_U |

Dude you are a bit late with the basil, I have harvested enough to make pesto twice now, and then harvested more enough to make another batch of pesto.

Curiously, we had an agrarian society for centuries and it was not until the turn of the previous century that industrialized countries adopted it. |
