On Sunday I once again came home to find all of the seedlings I had growing in the basement when I left home, dead. That officially puts an end to WLF’s 2026 growing season since it’s too late to start again.

Wordle: three, my starter was SLANT

    Yay, time off from WLF! You can come back in the spring with extra energy.

    Sushi and MNF last night. Barb, getting dressed and leaving the house is overrated.

    Wordle in 4.

    Was cooking dinner last night and managed to slice the fingerprint off my right thumb with a mandolin. I finished cooking with one hand and thought it was going to be OK. This morning, after changing the bandage, it doesn’t want to stop bleeding! May need to rebandage.

    Wrap up Games meeting tonight. I haven’t heard any numbers yet.

      I have a mandolin but never use it for that very reason.
      Hope it stops bleeding

      Did that with a knife. Go to a doc in a box to see if they want to cauterize it to stop the bleeding.

      I always use the guard, or a chainmail type glove when I use my mandolin, which I rarely use.

      Ouch! This is not the first time you or Debbie have sliced a finger off cooking dinner. You all are dangerous!

        I know I’ve done it before. I don’t recall Debbie doing it. I did think about the doc in a box, and might yet.

        I think it’s a ploy to get out of cooking. He’s maimed himself twice in the last month.

        Blog fly-by courtesy of the fact that I’m sitting at a computer this morning. I’m the chair of our opening hunt which is Saturday. I’ve had to actually do job-like things. 10/10 don’t recommend.

    Home from the Waschsalon. I needed to use the biggest washer because I had three sets of bed linens to wash today.

    On the way home I stopped at WLF@UFO to cut two of my three pepper plants. I should have cut the third, but am going to see how dead it is next week after cold temperatures.

    As I drove to UFO I saw Betsy walking her dog, with two of her friends. I pulled over to say hello.

    I have harvested many squash and “pumpkins”. I think I will see what happens to these when exposed to freezing (near freezing) temperatures.

    Why am I deciding their fate today? I won’t be ITP when the temperature plummets.

    My “sticky fingers” cost me $12.

    This morning at UFO there were pickle buckets out on a table. I inquired on WhatsApp, but didn’t hear anything, so I claimed three. Turns out, they are part of a coffee compost project, so I returned the ones I took.

    In driving home I had a hankering for coffee, probably in my brain because of the bucket project, so I stopped at Emerald City Bagels. Of course I bought a bagel with my coffee. With tip, $12 spent.
