*pats askbox gently* there are more Thermoreceptors?

(I'm sorry ur dome was so hot; I hope its much cooler now!)

My bluff has been called! Hooray!!

I am not a neurologist, a biologist, or a scientist. If anyone with better credentials than "obsessed with emergent properties" contradicts me, listen to them instead.

Cell membranes include little portal proteins that open under certain circumstances based on the shape of the protein and let chemicals into and out of the cell. These portals are useful for all sorts of things: managing water and nutrients, sending messages to nearby cells, serving the whims of tiny intercellular cats. Science hasn't found the tiny intercellular cats yet, but we all know they're there; the existence of a door that can be opened necessarily implies an indecisive feline.

Some protein shapes open up if the temperature is within a certain range. This means that if a cell with that sort of protein in its membrane experiences a temperature in the right range, it will move some chemicals around. This is used to make nerve cells that send a message towards the brain whenever they experience a certain temperature.

Because evolution does all its best work the night before the deadline while on a Code Red Mountain Dew bender, the opened-by-temperature portal proteins are mostly copied from opened-by-a-specific-chemical portal proteins. All of them, in fact, still open for specific chemicals, which means there exist out in the world liquids you can put in a bottle that most animals will instead perceive as "a temperature between 8 and 26 degrees" So things can get a little weird.

Temperature-opening portal proteins:

TRPA1 Opens for temperatures below 12C (not air temperature, skin or body temperature, so you might be kind of in trouble when this happens). Used by hunting snakes to detect where heat isn't so they can find prey. Feels painful in an itchy sort of way.

This one also opens for allyl isothiocyanate. Many plants have evolved to take advantage of the existence of a chemical most animals perceive as itchy pain, especially horseradish and wasabi. Allyl isothiocyanate is harmful to plants, so they keep two separate components in tiny compartments. When an animal bites the plant, the compartments break open their contents mix to create allyl isothiocyanate.

"This plant tastes like itching" is a good defense against almost all animals, but some humans have taught themselves to appreciate the taste of itching.

TRPM8 Opens for temperatures between 8 and 26 degrees. Opens for menthol (peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen) and linalool (roses, orange blossoms, basil). Feels cool or cold.

"This plant tastes like cold" is a somewhat less effective defense against being eaten than "this plant tastes like itching" but it's a more widespread defense because TRPM8-activating chemicals don't harm plants and don't need elaborate two-part storage.

TRPV4 Opens for temperatures from 27-37 C. I'm not sure what this one feels like, or if even feels like anything, since it covers normal human body temperatures. Whatever feeling we get from this one, we're feeling it nearly all the time.

Plants do make a chemical that tastes like this temperature, and it can repel nonhuman creatures with different body temperatures: allicin, the flavour of garlic. Like allyl isothiocyante, it is stored in two compartments inside the plant, and combined when the plant is bitten.

Maybe this is why vampires abhor garlic. There is a feeling that, as humans, we always have. Something we don't notice, something deeper than touch. That feel disappears forever when you become a vampire, except those unbearable moments when garlic returns to you for a fleeting moment the experience of lost humanity.

TRPV3 Opens for temperatures 33-39 degrees. Opens for eugenol, found in cinnamon, nutmeg, bay leaf, holy basil, ginger, allspice, and cloves. Feels like warmth.

Plants with high quantities of eugenol, like holy basil and Japanese star anise, are sometimes sacred to buddhists because they smell nice and bugs don't like to eat them, so you can burn them as incense without worrying about all the little crawly guys.

Humans apparently think food that tastes like "warm" is comforting.

TRPV1 Opens for temperatures over 43 degrees. (The one I was experiencing in the overheated dome, which I had never felt from air before) Opens for capsaicin, the active chemical in hot peppers. Opens for the combination of temperature and acidity of fevers and infected wounds. This one we feel as pain, as burning, as flame.

TRPV1 says: Your flesh is failing, and your doom is very near.

Humanity says: This is incredible. We are going to breed plants that cause this sensation as much as possible, and we will spend thousands of years getting it right. We are going to dry this and powder this and flake it and grill it and ferment it and eat it with everything.

And when we leave earth and go into space, we take hot peppers with us. Without gravity, fluid builds up in nasal passages, and astronauts sort of have colds the entire time they're in space and can't smell food very well. But the Nearness Of Your Doom is not a smell and is not perceived by the nose, so - with their doom always on the other side of ten centimeters of insulated aluminum - astronauts can taste hot peppers. In 2002, Peggy Whitson, commander of the ISS, jokingly refused to let a replacement crew on board until they handed over the hot sauce.

We are a strange and wonderful species.

Drying Herbs

How to Dry Herbs

Drying is the easiest method of preserving herbs. Simply expose the leaves, flowers or seeds to warm, dry air. Leave the herbs in a well ventilated area until the moisture evaporates. Sun drying is not recommended because the herbs can lose flavor and color.

The best time to harvest most herbs for drying is just before the flowers first open when they are in the bursting bud stage. Gather the herbs in the early morning after the dew has evaporated to minimize wilting. Avoid bruising the leaves. They should not lie in the sun or unattended after harvesting. Rinse herbs in cool water and gently shake to remove excess moisture. Discard all bruised, soiled or imperfect leaves and stems.

Dehydrator drying is a fast and easy way to dry high quality herbs because temperature and air circulation can be controlled. Pre-heat dehydrator with the thermostat set to 95°F to 115°F. In areas with higher humidity, temperatures as high as 125°F may be needed. After rinsing under cool, running water and shaking to remove excess moisture, place the herbs in a single layer on dehydrator trays. Drying times may vary from 1 to 4 hours. Check periodically. Herbs are dry when they crumble, and stems break when bent. Check your dehydrator instruction booklet for specific details.

Less Tender Herbs — The more sturdy herbs such as rosemary, sage, thyme, summer savory and parsley are the easiest to dry without a dehydrator. Tie them into small bundles and hang them to air dry. Air drying outdoors is often possible; however, better color and flavor retention usually results from drying indoors.

Tender-Leaf Herbs — Basil, oregano, tarragon, lemon balm and the mints have a high moisture content and will mold if not dried quickly. Try hanging the tender-leaf herbs or those with seeds inside paper bags to dry. Tear or punch holes in the sides of the bag. Suspend a small bunch (large amounts will mold) of herbs in a bag and close the top with a rubber band. Place where air currents will circulate through the bag. Any leaves and seeds that fall off will be caught in the bottom of the bag.

Another method, especially nice for mint, sage or bay leaf, is to dry the leaves separately. In areas of high humidity, it will work better than air drying whole stems. Remove the best leaves from the stems. Lay the leaves on a paper towel, without allowing leaves to touch. Cover with another towel and layer of leaves. Five layers may be dried at one time using this method. Dry in a very cool oven. The oven light of an electric range or the pilot light of a gas range furnishes enough heat for overnight drying. Leaves dry flat and retain a good color.

Microwave ovens are a fast way to dry herbs when only small quantities are to be prepared. Follow the directions that come with your microwave oven.

When the leaves are crispy dry and crumple easily between the fingers, they are ready to be packaged and stored. Dried leaves may be left whole and crumpled as used, or coarsely crumpled before storage. Husks can be removed from seeds by rubbing the seeds between the hands and blowing away the chaff. Place herbs in airtight containers and store in a cool, dry, dark area to protect color and fragrance. Dried herbs are usually 3 to 4 times stronger than the fresh herbs. To substitute dried herbs in a recipe that calls for fresh herbs, use 1/4 to 1/3 of the amount listed in the recipe.

fuck it im gonna do it.

Let's discuss the subtleties in the shots of the monastery in Farewell the Sea, because I think it's fascinating how much detail was put into shots we only see for a few seconds at maximum for the sake of showing how much Nya merging with the sea affected everyone.

So the first shot of the monastery we get (that isn't a shot of the entire thing) is the courtyard. There are leaves scattered on the ground, a leaf blowing by in the foreground, and a broom against the dragon statue.

The second shot we get is of this hallway, where the ninja hang pictures of their loved ones. The reason this one's interesting to me is because it feels like nobody's touched Jay and Nya's picture; everything else hanging on the walls is straight and even. The picture of Jay and Nya is crooked and dusty.

The third shot we get is of the kitchen. It's an absolute mess. It looks like nobody's bothered cleaning up in months. Dirty(?) dishes are just stacked everywhere, there are (presumably) empty soda cans all over the place, there's a stack of empty pizza boxes being used for extra garbage storage, it's just a mess.

The fourth shot before we get to the hangar bay is this one of the recreation room. Cole's soda guzzler is on the sofa, there's more garbage just laying around (including under the sofa), there's a game controller on the edge of the sofa, and it looks like nobody's really bothered doing anything seriously there for a while. Let's compare this to shots of the monastery we get in season 11.

When the rec room is being used regularly, yes, it's a total mess, but it feels lived in; additionally, the ninja don't look like they just throw the garbage wherever. Anything that seems to be empty is behind them and out of the way, compared to in Farewell the Sea where it feels like the garbage gets thrown around haphazardly. In addition to this, look at how many pizza boxes there are in the screenshot from Wasted True Potential, then look at the screenshot from Farewell the Sea. If we take the Farewell the Sea screenshot as meant to be implicative of Cole being the most active in the rec room, the team breaking up has either resulted in less pizzas being ordered or Cole's eating disorder from season 8 relapsed (link is an explanation in case it's needed).

Onto this hallway. I couldn't get a good screenshot of the hallway from the same angle, but it is the same hallway. It's not much different when it's being lived in, but how they show it in Farewell the Sea makes it feel empty, especially the specific zoomed out shot I used for this post. Like the rec room, this hallway doesn't feel lived in in Farewell the Sea.

I'm not sure what to say about this, except that in A Rocky Start (the episode I got this screenshot from), the courtyard is incredibly clean because they use it to train and practice fighting. There aren't any leaves, no brooms, it feels lived in because it's clean.

Finally, the kitchen. The dirty bowls aren't stacked on top of each other, the floor is clean, the counters aren't covered in trash, it just feels clean, maybe like they had dinner sometime before Aspheera attacked the monastery, which makes it feel lived in.

Whoever did the design for the monastery in Farewell the Sea did so well making things feel like they haven't been lived in for months. You can feel the effect that Nya merging with the sea has had in 20 seconds. It's honestly heartbreaking.

Top 10 Japandi Decor Ideas for Living Room

Sure, here are 10 Japandi decor ideas for your living room:

1. Embrace a neutral, muted colour scheme:

Japandi interiors are known for their calming and serene atmosphere. This is largely achieved through the use of a neutral colour scheme. Think beige, cream, taupe, and light gray for walls, furniture, and rugs. You can add pops of colour with artwork, throw pillows, or accent pieces, but keep it minimal to maintain the peaceful feel.

2. Let the natural light flow in:

Natural light is a key element in Japandi design. It helps to create a feeling of spaciousness and connection to the outdoors. Make sure to maximize natural light by keeping windows uncluttered and using sheer curtains or blinds. You can also arrange furniture to avoid blocking sunlight.

3. Introduce an abundance of natural materials:

Japandi style celebrates the beauty of nature. Incorporate natural materials like wood, bamboo, rattan, cotton, linen, and wool into your living room decor. Wood furniture with clean lines, woven baskets, jute rugs, and linen throws are all great ways to bring in a touch of nature.

4. Bring in furniture with organic shapes and functionality:

Japandi furniture is known for its clean lines, simple silhouettes, and functionality. Opt for low-profile sofas, coffee tables with organic shapes, and accent chairs with curved lines. Each piece of furniture should serve a purpose and contribute to the overall harmony of the space.

5. Add interest with soft furnishings and decorative items – but keep it minimal:

While Japandi is all about minimalism, you can still add a touch of personality with soft furnishings and decorative items. Think throw pillows in different textures, a textured rug, or a woven wall hanging. However, avoid cluttering the space. Keep the number of decorative items to a minimum and choose pieces that complement the overall aesthetic.

6. Utilize additional lighting for a sense of coziness:

Just because Japandi is minimalist doesn't mean your living room should be dark. Layer your lighting to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Use overhead lighting for general illumination, table lamps for ambient light, and floor lamps for task lighting. String lights or fairy lights can also add a touch of magic.

7. Fill your space with plants and greenery:

Plants are a wonderful way to bring life and colour into your Japandi living room. They also help to purify the air and improve indoor air quality. Choose a variety of plants in different sizes and textures to add visual interest. Snake plants, fiddle leaf figs, bonsai trees, and ferns are all popular choices for Japandi interiors.

8. Declutter ruthlessly:

Decluttering is essential for achieving the clean and serene look of Japandi design. Get rid of anything that you don't need or love. Invest in storage solutions to keep clutter at bay. Having a clean and organized space will help you to relax and unwind.

9. Incorporate Japanese-inspired ceramics:

Japanese ceramics, such as vases, bowls, and teacups, can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your Japandi living room. Look for pieces with clean lines, natural textures, and muted colours. You can display them on shelves, coffee tables, or sideboards.

10. Embrace the wabi-sabi philosophy:

Wabi-sabi is a Japanese philosophy that celebrates the beauty of imperfection. It's about finding beauty in the natural world, even in things that are flawed or impermanent. When decorating your Japandi living room, keep this philosophy in mind. Don't be afraid to embrace the natural variations in wood grain or the uneven texture of a hand-woven rug. These imperfections can add character and depth to your space.

By following these tips, you can create a Japandi living room that is both stylish and serene – a perfect place to relax and unwind.

Ok so. The cheap recipes i have survived with (on student exchange on norway). Also general info for max cheapskateyness, like where to find sales etc.

1. Fried noodles with salted peanuts

Noodles 5 pack 1.7e (the cheapest ones)

Peanuts 200g 2.3e

Any spices you find! Most preferably: paprika, curry, chili, ginger (ground), garlic 2 -4 cloves or 1 teaspoon of ground garlic + soy sauce (forget kikkoman it's hella expensive? Go to an "ethnic" store to find a bigger bottle of soy sauce, i used "healthy boy brand" thin soy sauce, the 1l bottle will last all eternity)

Boil the noodles or let them sit in a cup with boiling water until soft (for the love of god and all holies do not touch the cheap noodles' own spice packet)

Pour out excessive water

Take a small pan and pour the noodles in (if u use fresh garlic crush them or cut em up and fry them a lil bit while the noodles "boil"

Add all the spices, a bit of any oil (or butter) and 1-4 teaspoon/s of soy sauce

Stir fry until the noodles look sticky and fried

Add salted/chili peanuts on top

2. 4 ingredient pasta

Tips! Cheapest pasta is usually spaghetti that you can buy in bulk, like in spar norway 1kg of cheapest spaghetti is 18 kr (1.7e). Use ripoff brands that the shops have, lile "x-tra" "first price" or "eldoraro" in here. Cheapest crushed tomatoes pack is 70 kr (0.65e) for 250g.

Start boiling the pasta of your choice and simultaneously start cutting the garlics. You can also use garlic crusher, it's faster. Add a little bit of salt to the pasta water.

Fry your garlics. Add in drained chickpeas (any beans work) 9 kr/0.9e per pack. Add in the crushed tomatoes.

Add in any spices you can find, preferably: onion, rosemary, herb mix, chili, pepper

Drain the pasta and add in approx ¼ or ⅓ of the sauce

Leftover sauce goes to a box and to the fridge. I do not recommend storing pasta for further eating, it can go bad too fast

3. Seljanka soup

You will need:

Cheap crushed tomatoes, potatoes, (canned) mushrooms, cabbage, bay leaf, russian pickles (or fermented pickles w garlic and dill, do not add in those with sugar!) Or just 1 table spoon of cooking vinegar, cheap frozen vegetable mix (with carrots and celery etc), salt, pepper, clove spice, herb mix w rosemary, any beans, onion, garlic

Start with peeling and dicing the potatoes, cut onions and garlics. Start boiling them with ¼ of full kettle volume of water + add the bay leaves (2 will do for 3l of soup)

Add in cut cabbage, vinegar, pickles (cut) and the spices. Add the crushed tomatoes and water if it's too stewy.

Let boil for 10 min

Add in the canned mushrooms (rinsed) and the frozen veggies and beans

Let boil for 10-20 min or until the potatoes are soft

You can either freeze or store the leftovers in a fridge

Price info: 1kg cabbage 5-20kr /0.4-2e, 2kg of potatoes 20-40kr/2-4e, jar of russian pickles 20-30kr, spices all mentioned probs like 10e (only gotta buy these once!), 2/3 big onions 20-25 kr, 2 garlics 23kr

4. Marinated beans + mashed potatoes

Take a container or a bowl. Add in 1 packet of rinsed chickpeas. Add in 2-4 tablespoons of soy sauce.

Add a bit of oil so the beans wont dry when storaged in the fridge

Add spices, preferably garlic, herbs, ginger, chili, pepper (no salt needed since the soy sauce is very salty)

Let sit for 1-2h in the fridge

Boil peeled potatoes. Pour out water. Mash them with a masher or a fork with a bit of added water/milk/melted butter if u can afford it. Add salt.

Other valuable info!

Cheapest stores (in norway) for vegetables/canned things: kiwi, extra, obs

Cheapest store for sales: obs, eurospar

Best "kuppdisk" (-50% shelf for soon to expire products) Any big markets such as eurospar and obs. Here u can find cheap meat/dairy/veggies. They have kuppdisk for veggie section, dry section and meat/dairy/frozen goods section

Download the app "e tilbundsavis" to get info what is on sale where. It's in norwegian but very easy to understand (use google translator to search items in the app, like "coffee" or "chips")

Cheapest instant coffee is friele but it tastes like crap. Nescafe brasileiro is tiny bit more expensive but so much better.

Learn to make your own popcorn in a kettle, there's youtube tutorials for that. So much cheaper than micro popcorn.

For alcohol you are damned. I would suggest buying the cheapest big (0.75 litre for 30kr) vodka bottle and mixing it with different sodas/juices. Note! Only Vinmonopolet store sells other than beer like normal stores. Check opening times, they are strict. U gotta be over 20 to buy vodka in norway, wine u can get at 18. Or ask someone u know to buy vodka for u. Or when traveling to norway get your vodka as a "gift" from the airport in your home country. It's still cheaper.

There's snack sales from time to time like 5 bars of 200 choco for 100kr. It seems like much but normally one 200g bar is 44kr. Also chips can get -50% sales, check the "tilbundsavis" app every other day so u wont miss them.

Do NOT shop in Joker mini stores or gas stations. Hella expensive. Uh oh. And for the love of All do not doordash, u will bancrupt yourself (unless u are rich but then u don't need these tips anyways).

Make as much from scratch as u can. There's plenty of "cheap/simple cooking for idiots" type vids on youtube.

For snus/tobacco i don't know the prices bc i don't use them. Probably quite expensive. Check how much u can take with u from home without taxes if u use them.

People with ovaries! Period products are expensive too. Cheap brands work just as fine. Or take a couple extra packs with u.

The winter is long and it's recommended to take vitamin supplements (especially vitamin D). There's sales for those too, team up with people u know for things like "3 for 2" in vitamins. Usually the sales start when it begins to get darker, in september.

If you have an injury/need the hospital, u can use your insurance or european health insurance card (for eu citizens it costs like 10e but then u can use the eu/schengen area hospitals with the same pricing as locals). There's student health services for free but those are for not for "major injuries", more like for check ups and teeth care.

[julianbashir]

wait you wanted SOUP RECIPES not canned food recipes, sorry, that must have been someone else. What was given was not a soup. Chicken Hearty Stew!! Dredge chicken thighs, bone in, brown in the bottom of a dutch oven with oil (HOT), remove, set to the side. De-glaze browned bits with a bit of white wine, or not if you were like me pre-21 and unable to buy wine for cooking (it was bullshit, but I'm past it now. Chicken broth works fine), add your chopped onions and carrots, maybe garlic? Probably, but I can't actually remember, bay leaf. Push around the hot pan with wine until they start to smell nice, then add chicken broth to fill the pot along with the chicken thighs, and chunks of potato. Towards the end, add frozen peas (or like, whatever's your fancy as far as pea-storage methods. I like frozen, you add'em at the end so they can not be frozen but also don't cook past being warmed). Best with the rolls my mom used to make, which was actually her multi-purpose pizza dough recipe. We also used that for cinnamon rolls.

LMFAO all good anon!! ill tuck both into my back pocket anyways

Creating a Welcoming Entryway: Ideas and Inspiration by WeDezine

At WeDezine, we believe your home's entryway is more than just a functional space—it's a powerful first impression that reflects your personality and sets the tone for the rest of your home. Our team of experienced interior designers in Bangalore specializes in transforming entryways into captivating spaces that are both beautiful and practical. In this blog, we’ll share our top ideas and inspirations to help you create a welcoming entryway that leaves a lasting impact.

1. Start with a Signature Rug that Speaks Style

One of our favorite ways to define an entryway is with a stunning rug that adds both color and comfort. A rug not only frames the space but also introduces texture and warmth, instantly making your entryway more inviting. At WeDezine, we recommend rugs made from durable materials like jute or wool for high-traffic areas. Opt for a design that complements your home’s aesthetic—whether it’s a modern geometric pattern, a traditional Persian rug, or a minimalist monochrome.

2. Illuminate with Custom Lighting Solutions

Lighting is key to creating a warm and welcoming entryway. Our WeDezine team often integrates a mix of ambient and accent lighting to add depth and dimension. Consider a statement pendant or chandelier for overhead lighting, paired with a sleek wall sconce or a stylish table lamp for softer, ambient light. If natural light is available, we help you maximize it with sheer drapes or strategically placed mirrors to amplify brightness and create a sense of space.

3. Functional Furniture Tailored to Your Needs

A practical entryway starts with the right furniture. WeDezine focuses on combining style with function by selecting pieces like console tables, benches, and storage units that fit seamlessly into your space. A custom-built console or a sleek, floating shelf can provide a designated spot for keys, mail, and other essentials. Benches or ottomans not only add seating but also provide hidden storage for shoes, umbrellas, and bags—helping to keep your entryway clutter-free.

4. Personalize with Art and Accessories

Your entryway should be a reflection of who you are. At WeDezine, we love to incorporate unique art pieces, family photos, or travel mementos that add character and tell a story. Think of your entryway as a curated gallery—a place where your personality shines. We can help you create a striking focal point with a statement piece of artwork or a gallery wall that blends different frame styles and sizes for a dynamic, layered effect.

5. Use Mirrors to Expand and Brighten

Mirrors are a secret weapon in interior design, especially for entryways. They create an illusion of space and help bounce light around, making even the smallest entryway feel more expansive. At WeDezine, we often choose mirrors with unique frames—be it vintage-inspired gilded frames, sleek metal designs, or rustic wooden accents—that complement your home's overall aesthetic. The right mirror can act as a statement piece while serving a practical purpose.

6. Bring in Greenery for a Breath of Fresh Air

Nothing breathes life into a space quite like plants. WeDezine suggests incorporating greenery into your entryway to add a natural, calming touch. Whether it’s a statement fiddle-leaf fig, a collection of small succulents, or a hanging plant arrangement, greenery can enhance the welcoming feel of your entryway. We also help you choose plant varieties that thrive in your entryway’s light conditions, ensuring they remain lush and vibrant year-round.

7. Smart Storage Solutions to Keep Clutter at Bay

A well-organized entryway feels instantly more welcoming. Our design experts at WeDezine specialize in creating custom storage solutions tailored to your space. Think built-in shelves, bespoke cabinets, or creatively designed wall hooks that keep your entryway tidy and functional. Stylish baskets or bins can also provide hidden storage for shoes, toys, or other daily essentials, maintaining a clean, open look.

8. Set the Mood with a Coordinated Color Palette

The color palette you choose for your entryway can dramatically affect its ambiance. At WeDezine, we work with you to select colors that reflect your style while harmonizing with the rest of your home. Light, neutral tones can create a serene, airy environment, while bold hues like deep blues, greens, or even black can add a sophisticated, dramatic touch. We also consider how lighting and natural elements in your entryway interact with your chosen colors to create a cohesive look.

9. Utilize Vertical Space Creatively

Entryways often have limited floor space, so make the most of the vertical space with creative solutions. WeDezine's designs often include floating shelves, wall-mounted storage, and decorative hooks that provide function without sacrificing style. Consider a tall, narrow bookshelf or a vertical garden to add visual interest and maximize every inch of your entryway.

10. Make It Yours with Unique Personal Touches

Finally, your entryway should feel like a true extension of your home. WeDezine helps you infuse your entryway with personal touches that make it truly yours. Whether it’s a bespoke welcome mat, a custom sign, or a cherished family heirloom, these elements can make the space feel more personal and welcoming. Our goal is to create a space that not only looks beautiful but also feels like home every time you walk through the door.

How to Make Garam Masala at Home: A Flavorful Guide

Garam Masala is a fundamental spice blend in Indian cuisine, cherished for its aromatic and warming qualities. While you can buy Garam masala powder from stores, making it at home allows you to customize the blend to your taste and ensures freshness. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to make Garam Masala at home, so you can enjoy a perfectly balanced spice mix tailored to your culinary preferences.

Ingredients for Homemade Garam Masala

To create your own Garam Masala, you'll need a variety of spices. Each ingredient contributes to the blend's complexity and depth. Here’s a list of common spices used in Garam Masala:

Coriander Seeds: Provides a citrusy, nutty flavor.

Cumin Seeds: Adds an earthy, warm note.

Black Peppercorns: Offers a sharp, spicy kick.

Cinnamon Stick: Gives a sweet, woody aroma.

Cardamom Pods: Contributes a sweet, floral fragrance.

Cloves: Imparts a warm, spicy flavor.

Bay Leaves: Adds a subtle, herbal taste.

Nutmeg: Enhances the blend with its warm, nutty essence.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Garam Masala

1. Toast the Spices

To bring out the full flavor of your spices, start by toasting them. This process releases the essential oils and enhances the aroma.

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat.

Add each spice individually to the skillet. You can start with coriander seeds, cumin seeds, black peppercorns, and cinnamon stick.

Toast the spices for a few minutes, stirring frequently, until they become fragrant and slightly darker in color. Be careful not to burn them.

2. Cool and Grind the Spices

Once toasted, allow the spices to cool completely before grinding. This prevents them from becoming too hot and helps achieve a fine powder.

Transfer the spices to a plate or bowl and let them cool.

Grind the cooled spices using a spice grinder, coffee grinder, or mortar and pestle. Aim for a fine, consistent powder. If using a grinder, you might need to do it in batches.

3. Blend the Spices

After grinding the individual spices, blend them together to create your Garam Masala.

Combine the ground spices in a bowl. You can adjust the proportions based on your taste preference. For a traditional blend, use:

2 tablespoons of ground coriander

1 tablespoon of ground cumin

1 tablespoon of ground black pepper

1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon of ground cardamom

1 teaspoon of ground cloves

1 bay leaf, ground (optional)

¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg

4. Store Your Garam Masala

Proper storage is crucial to maintaining the freshness and potency of your Garam Masala.

Transfer the spice blend to an airtight container. Glass jars or metal tins work well.

Store the container in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Use within 3-6 months for the best flavor. Over time, the spices can lose their potency, so it's best to make smaller batches.

Tips for Perfect Garam Masala

1.  Customize to Your Taste: Feel free to adjust the quantities and types of spices based on your preferences. Some recipes might include additional spices like star anise, fennel seeds, or dried chilies for extra flavor.

2.  Experiment with Roasting: Some recipes suggest roasting the spices lightly before grinding to intensify their flavor. Try it out to see if you prefer the depth it adds.

3.  Grind in Batches: If you’re making a large quantity, grind the spices in smaller batches to ensure an even grind and prevent overheating.

4.  Freshness Matters: For the best results, use whole spices and grind them just before mixing. Ground spices can lose their flavor more quickly than whole ones.

5.  Blending Techniques: If you don’t have a spice grinder, you can use a mortar and pestle. It takes more effort but can result in a more aromatic and textured blend.

Using Your Homemade Garam Masala

Now that you’ve made your own Garam Masala, you can use it to enhance a variety of dishes. Here are a few ideas:

Curries: Add a teaspoon of Garam masala powder to your curry at the end of cooking for a rich, spiced flavor.

Rice Dishes: Stir a bit into rice dishes like biryani or pilaf for an aromatic touch.

Soups and Stews: Enhance the flavor of soups and stews with a pinch of homemade Garam Masala.

Marinades: Mix it with yogurt and lemon juice to create a flavorful marinade for meats or vegetables.

Baking: Experiment with adding Garam Masala to baked goods like cookies or cakes for a unique twist.

Making Garam Masala at home allows you to tailor the spice blend to your preferences and ensures the freshness of your spices. By following these simple steps, you can create a delicious, aromatic blend that will elevate your cooking.

Top 10 Pest Control Tips for Homeowners

Keeping your home free of pests is essential for your health and your property's integrity. Pests such as ants, cockroaches, rodents, and termites can cause considerable damage and pose health risks. Here are the top 10 pest control tips to help you keep your home safe and pest-free.

1. Seal Entry Points

Blocking entry points is one of the most effective methods for keeping pests out. Inspect your home for cracks, gaps, and holes, especially around windows, doors, and utility lines. Apply caulk or weather stripping to close these gaps and prevent pests from entering.

2. Keep Your Home Clean

A clean home is less attractive to pests. Vacuum, sweep, and mop floors regularly to remove food crumbs and spills. Keep kitchen counters and dining areas clean, and ensure rubbish bins are sealed and emptied regularly.

3. Proper Food Storage

Keep food in airtight containers to prevent pests from getting to it.

This includes pet food, which should also be kept in sealed containers. Avoid leaving food out overnight and promptly clean up after meals.

4. Eliminate Standing Water

Stagnant water breeds pests such as mosquitoes and can attract rodents and insects. Regularly check for and fix leaks, clean gutters, and ensure water doesn't accumulate in subfloor areas.

5. Maintain Your Yard

Overgrown vegetation and cluttered yards can provide shelter for pests. Keep your lawn mowed, trim bushes and trees, and remove debris or leaf piles. Store firewood at least 3-5 metres away from your home.

6. Use Pest-Repellent Plants

Certain plants can naturally repel pests. Consider planting pyrethrum, lavender, mint, rosemary, or marigolds around your home to keep pests at bay. These plants can also add beauty to your garden.

7. Dispose of Waste Properly

Effective waste management is crucial for controlling pests. Make sure garbage bins have securely fitting lids and are cleaned regularly. Recycle materials and compost organic waste to minimize attractants for pests.

8. Regular Inspections

Consistently check your home for signs of pests, such as droppings, gnaw marks, or damaged materials. Early detection can help you address pest issues before they become significant infestations.

9. Hire Professional Pest Control

Sometimes, more than DIY methods are needed. Engaging a professional pest control service can offer specialized advice and treatments customized to address your specific pest issues. They can also provide regular maintenance plans to keep pests at bay.

10. Educate Yourself

Stay informed about the types of pests common in your area and effective prevention methods. Knowledge is power in pest control, and being proactive can save you time and money in the long run.

Maintaining a pest-free home requires vigilance and proactive measures, but the rewards are well worth the effort. By implementing these top pest control tips, you can protect your home and family from pest nuisances and dangers.

Effective American Roach Control in Las Vegas: Protecting Your Home from Unwanted Invaders

American cockroaches, often referred to as "Palmetto bugs" or "water bugs," are among the most common and resilient pests found in Las Vegas. These large, reddish-brown roaches thrive in warm climates and can become a significant nuisance when they invade homes. Understanding the behavior of American Roaches and implementing effective control strategies can help you maintain a roach-free environment in Las Vegas.

Understanding American Roaches

Appearance:

American roaches are large, typically measuring 1.5 to 2 inches in length.

They have a reddish-brown coloration with a distinctive yellowish figure-eight pattern on the back of their heads.

Behavior:

These roaches are nocturnal and prefer dark, moist environments.

They are excellent climbers and can enter homes through drains, pipes, and cracks.

American roaches are omnivorous and will feed on almost anything, including food scraps, garbage, and decaying organic matter.

Habitat:

Outdoors, they are commonly found in sewers, mulch, and damp areas.

Indoors, they seek out basements, bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas with moisture and food sources.

Preventing American Roach Infestations

Maintain Cleanliness:

Regular Cleaning: Keep your home clean by regularly sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming floors. Pay special attention to kitchens and dining areas where food crumbs and spills are common.

Proper Food Storage: Store food in sealed containers to prevent access by roaches. Do not leave pet food out overnight.

Garbage Management: Dispose of garbage regularly and use trash cans with tight-fitting lids.

Eliminate Moisture:

Fix Leaks: Repair any plumbing leaks in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements to reduce moisture levels.

Use Dehumidifiers: In particularly damp areas of your home, use dehumidifiers to reduce humidity.

Ventilation: Ensure proper ventilation in bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms to prevent moisture buildup.

Seal Entry Points:

Caulk Cracks and Gaps: Inspect your home for cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and foundations. Seal them with caulk or weatherstripping.

Install Door Sweeps: Place door sweeps on exterior doors to prevent roaches from entering.

Screen Vents: Cover vents and drains with mesh screens to block entry points.

Outdoor Maintenance:

Yard Clean-Up: Keep your yard free of debris, such as leaf litter and woodpiles, which can serve as roach habitats.

Mulch Management: Keep mulch and garden beds away from your home's foundation to reduce roach harborage areas.

Effective American Roach Control Methods

Baiting:

Roach Baits: Use roach baits containing insecticides to attract and kill roaches. Place baits in areas where roaches are commonly seen, such as under sinks, behind appliances, and in basements.

Gel Baits: Apply gel baits in cracks and crevices where roaches hide. Gel baits are highly effective and can be placed in hard-to-reach areas.

Traps:

Glue Traps: Set up glue traps in areas where roaches are active. These traps can help monitor roach activity and reduce their population.

Boric Acid: Use boric acid powder in areas where roaches travel. When ingested, boric acid is lethal to roaches.

Chemical Treatments:

Insecticide Sprays: Apply insecticide sprays around the perimeter of your home, along baseboards, and in areas where roaches are active. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

Dust Insecticides: Use dust insecticides in wall voids, attics, and other hidden spaces to target roaches that may be nesting out of sight.

Professional Pest Control:

If your roach problem persists despite your efforts, consider hiring a professional pest control service. Pest control professionals have access to more potent treatments and can develop a comprehensive plan to eliminate roaches from your home.

Conclusion American roaches are a common pest in Las Vegas, but with diligence and the right strategies, you can keep them at bay. By maintaining cleanliness, reducing moisture, sealing entry points, and using effective control methods, you can protect your home from these unwelcome invaders. For severe infestations, professional pest control services can provide the expertise and resources needed to eliminate roaches and ensure a pest-free environment. Stay vigilant and proactive to enjoy a roach-free home in the vibrant city of Las Vegas.

5/14/2024: Pease let the mayor know that in the last 2 days, I reached out to 3 white homeless (1 woman). Perhaps they don't trust an Asian person so they didn't really take me seriously:

1. The female Caucasian still young but reaching 45 years old with bleached blonde hair was begging for money at the street light brushed off my offer to help to get a her a place, but took my homemade business card when I said I'll help you look for a job. I can help her look for a job by renting a tiny storage with my cash so she can place her belongs in there. I can help finish her with clean undies, clothes and clothes and so she can place in storage while looking for a job and work.

2. A drugged out reaching middle-aged white man with his bay planet in the morning in the parking lots. Gave him $2 and my business card and he took the money and went into the store, but he seems polite and harmless.

3. A 40-year-old white man on a bike who seems to be strong whom I met at a grocery distribution day at the local church. I told him to email me and tell me what he wants and I can help him get off the street. He was receptive at first, but as soon as I told him I am trying to get a job with the mayor and he said something likes "doesn't work" and walked off. Then I said out loud in a funny but form tone of voice "don't say I didn't try to help."

4. A Middle aged black man who seems a bit frail, but receptive to my offer. Took my email.

5. A 45 year old Latino man who seems receptive and took my business card.

6. I placed my homemade business card on the bed of a homeless who is stationed right next to the door of a library, but he or she wasn't there.

Well mayor, I am doing my part to help out the homeless where I live first with me a a semi-homeless with a place to sleep as a part-time caregiver with IHSS while owning a van as my bed which I park next the the elderly 's house whom I work as a part-time caregiver for, and a cheap, used Nissan Leaf to drive around the neighborhood to reach out to thr homeless people here. Because my expenses are extremely low after I tamed all my spending, I can use disability checks to finance my work-experience to build my resume with you for a pension -health-insurance part-time job with full-time pay work at home with the Saint Joseph or San Jose city.

Sorry for bad English and spelling for I am focusing on implementing my ideas first then write out later.

I'll stop emailing you now to focus on work. In the future, I fear my name will be uttered among the homeless and soon to the news. I'll email you with a professional looking resume later when I am done with my implementation work.

Thank you,

Trang Nguyen

In this guide, we will explore the safe and effective application of Onekil in your garden, ensuring that your plants thrive while weeds are kept at bay.

Safety First: Preparing for Application:

Read the Label: Start by thoroughly reading the product label. This provides essential information on application rates, safety precautions, and guidelines for specific plants.

Wear Protective Gear: Prioritize your safety by wearing appropriate protective gear, including gloves, long sleeves, pants, and safety glasses. This protects you from any potential contact with the herbicide.

Application Techniques

Mixing Onekil: Follow the recommended mixing ratios as specified on the product label. Use clean equipment, and ensure proper agitation during mixing to achieve a uniform solution.

Sprayer Calibration: Calibrate your sprayer to deliver the correct application rate. This ensures optimal coverage while preventing over-application.

Spot Treatment: For targeted weed control, consider spot-treating affected areas. This minimizes the impact on non-target plants and reduces overall herbicide usage.

Timing Matters: Apply Onekil when weeds are actively growing. This enhances the herbicide's effectiveness as the plants are more receptive to absorption.

Post-Application Care:

Observe Waiting Periods: Respect the waiting periods specified on the label before harvesting edible crops. This ensures that any residues have sufficiently degraded.

Monitor Plant Health: Keep a close eye on the treated plants and surrounding vegetation. Report any signs of stress or adverse reactions promptly.

Storage and Disposal: Store Onekil in a cool, dry place away from children and pets. Dispose of empty containers responsibly according to local regulations.

Altar moment!

explanation under the cut

so to quickly break everything down, I did a deep clean of my closet and scrubbed it out and emptied it of everything, salt and smoke to cleanse it and announced it as a space for my altar towards both Ophiuchus and Archangel Micheal. Left side is for Ophiuchus specifically, right Archangel Micheal.

the cloth there is just a random towel I found and wouldn’t be missed, I put an aluminum tin’s cover after I heavily cleaned it and cleansed it to act as a tray. My offering bowl is the white one, the cap there was what I’ve been using to gather ash and I also used it to mix something up, some bay leaf ash, black pepper and oils I painted along the area and wrote sigils with for protection. The little green capped cup is just for storage.

The glass box is something I bought on a nostalgic trip with a grandparent, it’s gold and I’ve specifically clarified it as for Archangel Micheal, while the snake is a wooden toy I painted a while ago with a galaxy pattern that is for Ophiuchus. I’ve set the snake on top of the glass box as a sort of representation of the unity. Also, it’s limited curves reminds me a bit of Ophiuchus’s symbol, I really loved that image.the mirror is one I cleansed and drew a sigil on and the notecards are there for whatever I need. On both sides of the mirror is a pair of earrings I was gifted.

Onto the right side, right next to the box is my container of sun water and a golden looking lions head…thing. I’m not sure where I got it to be honest so I cleansed it. Then is some bangles I was gifted, a small golden cap of an old perfume bottle filled with honey (wealth, UPG with angelic beings, success, drive), black pepper (protection, energy) and turmeric (health, energy, earth) on a little wooden block and a coin on top. The big white orb is another light and it’s sitting on a silver bracelet with one on top.

to the left, two rings one with the Pisces symbol on it (UPG that Ophiuchus is a water sign) and the other with stars, and another silver bracelet gift. The light up mirror and a notecard I’ve painted with Ophiuchus’ sign on the front. Blue for water, clarity and honesty, Orange for new connections, and growth, and purple for success and connection. I plan to do a matching one in different colors for Archangel Micheal’s side.

I’m pretty happy with how this came together, honestly, it’s definitely a start! I spent a few hours today just scrubbing every inch of this closet and the surrounding area lol
