Why is salt good for exorcism and banishing and all that jazz? Well you see, way back in the day people knew jack-all about germs and microbes and for all they knew it was evil spirits that got into their food and made it go a-spoil. They Noticed and Observed that when you soaked food in a Lot of Salt, food stayed good longer. So that meant that the salt was keeping the bad spirits out. Now, tossing around salt and making salt circles makes for dramatic rituals, sure. But I think we all know that some entities are just powerful bastards and need some extra oomph to get them out of the damn house. You know what is more potent than salt at killing bacteria and germs? Bleach. You know what’s really good for just killing all kinds of stuff very dead? Medical autoclaves. Now I understand that not all of you have access to autoclaves, but I understand that a good pressure cooker can also do for sterilization. So therefore, I propose that if you have yourself a haunted doll or something that isn’t reponding to the usual methods, a wash with chlorine might be in order; and if that doesn’t to the job, a visit to the Insta-Pot might teach the bastard who’s boss around here. (Of course there might not be much of a doll left but it wasn’t like you needed to keep it around, anyway.)

Apple pie is in the autumn air!🍂This is our old fashioned apple pie recipe, the only apple pie I like. I tried so many and I don’t like them all, even though I like apples and homemade apple jam very much. Some apples are better for snacking and others for baking😁 So me and mama always choose the sweet ones. The most important thing is that the crust is not hard, it is soft and the pie is delicious even the next day. This is not that kind of pie that you can use as an ax to chop wood for your fireplace (if you know what I mean)😂 Ingredients (for small portion, so you can double it): 50g butter 75g sugar 1 egg and 1 yolk, egg white for greasing the cake a pinch of salt vanilla extract (optional) 0.5 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar 120g sour cream (or cream cheese) about 1.5 cups flour (250g cup size) about 4-5 middle size apples baking pan size (mine is 29x20cm or 26cm round baking pan) Begin with creaming butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy before then adding the eggs and flour. Add the rest of the ingredients and make the dough. The dough should be soft, do not add too much flour. Place the dough in a bowl, cover it with a towel and leave it out for about 30 min. Then divide the dough into two balls (one bigger and one smaller). Leave most of the dough for the bottom of the pie. Roll out dough, place the bottom crust in your pan so that it lines the bottom and sides of the baking pan. Fill with peeled apples (cut apples in very thin slices). Roll out second disc of dough, as before. Gently place onto the top of the filling in the pie. Fold the edge of the top piece of dough over and under the edge of the bottom piece of dough, pressing together. *If the apples are really sweet, you don’t need to add sugar to it. If you think that apples are not sweet enough, sprinkle them with sugar. Beat an egg white until frothy, then brush over the dough. Bake at 170°-190°C (or 350-375°F) for about 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. You can also make caramel sauce and have it with apple pie, it’s super delicious:)

Windcatchers are fascinating.

Also called wind towers and wind scoops, windcatchers have been used in North Africa and the Middle East for thousands of years to provide natural ventilation & passive cooling. They fell out of popularity after the introduction of HVAC systems, but are now experiencing a revival because they’re so practical and cost-effective. Here’s how they work:

Not only are they an engineering masterpiece–they’re gorgeous

Windcatchers rely on local weather instead of the electric grid, making them affordable, reliable, and eco-friendly. they’re a terrific example of how vernacular and traditional architecture is often more suited to its environment–and more livable–than modern polite architecture.
