My ex-inlaws had a two bedroom house and three children, two boys and a
girl. My ex-husband shared a bedroom with his younger brother. They
turned the dining room into their daughter's bedroom with curtains to
separate it exactly as you say. She did have a chest of drawers in the
room.

I cringe when Joan calls you that. Still, I haven't seen you objecting
to Bruce calling me "McBiddy". Is there a difference?

McBiddy's a term of endearment.

Yes, it's a Southern American term for a tall (standing) wooden chest
primarily for hanging clothes. In the Northern states it was mostly
called a wardrobe or armoire.

Wild bees are building their homes from plastic—and scientists aren't
sure why

  First off , y'all please drop the "e" from my last name . We left
that behind when we split from Merry Olde in the 60's - 1860's that is .
Now , about the plastic . The article postulated they're using it for a
barrier , maybe from airborne toxins ? This doesn't directly apply to
Apis Mellifera , the common honeybee , but it is important in that it
involves a native pollinator . A situation that bears watching .

There are plastic particles in honey these days. That's how far it has
entered into the environment. It also explains some people's looks.

Interesting! It sounds to me like nature (in this case, bees) adapting
to the mess humans have made of this world.
 
"Both studies noted that more research needs to be done before
scientists can outline the potential impact plastic might have on bees,
but the nest building shows that bees are highly adaptive to changing
environments. In both places, leaves were readily available as a
building material."
 
So, they had natural materials but chose the plastic. How do they break
it down into usuable form for a hive?
 
"It would demonstrate the adaptive flexibility that certain species of
bees would have in the face of changes in environmental conditions".
 
"Adaptive flexibility". Definitely. Sounds to me like they're
recycling. Only further study and time will tell about the hives. Not
to sound flip, but it also sounds like the bees are trying to build a
better condo. :D

I had it the way you want and then I checked a previous message to
make sure that I had the spelling correct. So sorry..

We have a saying over here "it takes one to know one". Perhaps Bruce is
jealous all this J attention isn't on him. He seems to be doing a pretty
good job drawing the attention off John and onto himself, at least.

Humans are just transport vessels for DNA, and have little say in how
selfish they are.

Nice and crisp and smells delicious. I turned the oven off and put them
back in for a few minutes. They'll continue to crisp up a bit more as
the (electric) oven cools down.

He's very good at generalizing. When I was in my early 20's I craved
salt to the point where I'd pour a bit into my my hand and eat it.
Turns out I had low blood pressure. Not dangerously low but he
explained my body was craving sodium chloride. I'd been adjusting my
cooking to use very little salt because my mother was on a low-sodium
diet. Less salt might have been good for her but it sure wasn't good
for me.

For normal Pesto you'd use a sweet Basil, whereas in Thai cooking
you'd use holy basil (not Thai Basil) to make Krapao, for example.
Both quite different in flavour, texture and cooking properties.

Krapao? That word might trigger dsi1.

Obviously, this is climate/weather dependent. Obviously, you don't
water your lawn when it rains. Obviously.
