Of course it's safe to eat. My farmer grandfather always said that if there's a worm on your apple (corn) that's the one you should eat; if the worms like it means it's good.

Juneberries are so wonderful! I'm about to harvest juneberries from 10 different trees around my office campus (nobody has ever been interested in them)! There will be a small batch of jam and a pie (or two).

I made this last night and it was a lovely, light and delicious dish.

@amosfrie - I used lemon verbena & lemon balm instead of lemon zest and dill and they worked beautifully.

You should call this the Crispy *insert favorite topping* Waffles; it's a basic waffle recipe that just happens to have pecans sprinkled on to it.

Another person for whole sardines! So lovely grilled and everybody can get their own fish.

Both. Canned when I haven't planned and dried when I'm not lazy & have several days of meals worked out ahead of time.

So, are the children locked up in a separate room/house, away from the white furniture, 24/7? I can't see any other way to keep that furniture its original color. More stark, impersonal, & non-DIY than my taste but gorgeous nonetheless.

It's a beautiful modern house when open. So, yes, I'd live there. However, I would need to turn it into a "closed system", capable of withstanding long sieges & self-sustainable, in case of the Apocalypse (regular or zombie flavored).

I second @cremedela. I don't see the problem. My bamboo cutting board takes up very little non-dedicated, non-intrusive space. I also use it as a trivet, cheese board, tray. It's used every day even if nothing's being diced/cut/chopped.
BTW, if that moss planter is stained it's a bad idea to use it to prep food.

Most slipcovers are in the $100+ range, even when they're mass-produced specifically for your couch. Getting custom-made ones is even more expensive. Save the money and get a new sofa with it?
