Bitter...melon...drink?!?!?!? My mom made me drink this as a kid, once... Is this for health benefits or do you actually like it?@sf_newyorker @diane278 @Rouge H

I don’t like it as a kids too. about 5 years ago I started to change my taste and I included it in my daily menu. love it as a drink. Just add a bit of honey and lime juice. you will be surprised that it is tasteful and no more bitterness
.
The feedbag purse came yesterday; my photo without strap not as well taken as seller’s but does show different perspective. smaller than estimated at only 9 or so inches, very cute. I’m sure most of you realized faster than I this is a bag design based on a feedbag and not a real one, or it would have at least had some water holes so poor horsey would not drown if took a drink while eating.
Couldn’t find a letter mark, would likely be faded, worn. Research indicates a design from 1950s, found a few for sale online for 6x or more what I paid but this one does have some stains and a slouch; strap needs some rehabbing so we’ll send flying off to @docride at her convenience.

How is it possible for something Hermes Barenia to be so perfect at age 20 for $1,000?
I asked @docride, “is it coated with something?“
doc: well, hold it under running water and see if it spots, then dries. no spots, then there might be a coating have to remove.
me (struck deaf by the words “under running water”): ....”and what exactly does that get me other than a heart attack?”
yes, glorious spots, but no lasting spots!

I got help today. My two sons love to slice the meat and to wash the herbs. We had joked around our future daughters-in-law (s)
While you were doing that, I was in my garage developing my new hobby: graffiti. I’m no Banksy, but I have my own style: “spray heavy and ignore the drips”.I got help today. My two sons love to slice the meat and to wash the herbs. We had joked around our future daughters-in-law (s)
My first piece will be unveiled in due time....someday. There’s more spraying to be done....gotta get back in the garage now and get to work.
(I never planned on this project, but I need an escape from reality right now....)

OMG I literally cannot wait to see what you are creating!
(And, be careful with those fumes!)
One day, I will stop by your house. Your garage is to die for
.So clean. And the wall arts My garage is storage to assorted prints I accumulated several decades ago. If friends have grown children going out on their own, they can come over and choose some. If you stop by, I’ll insist you take a print or two with you!One day, I will stop by your house. Your garage is to die for
I’ve been considering putting in closed cabinets but I’m worried that I’ll just fill them up with stuff I should get rid of....
Right now, it’s a vague concept. (I opened both garage doors for clean air.) If you want anything turned orange, send it over. I got an extra can of spray paint.Can't wait to see.
