Came out of the canner late afternoon. Can I reboil it with more pectin tomorrow morning and reprocess it? Thanks.

Forgive me if this is the wrong forum. Can anyone explain to me why my Earfun can't be discovered by my laptop when it is right fucking next to it with the Bluetooth button pushed? Gah.

Badly. Looking for a diner with homemade fries and most important homemade turkey gravy. As close to Brattleboro as possible cuz I gotta travel some. Thanks!

For interviews, etc. All in good shape, some never worn.

I’ve been growing Music for 7 years, replanting every fall with a 5th or so of the crop. It’s been very reliable, bulbs tend to run a bit small but cloves nice and big. I hate tiny cloves!

I could only plant half my usual amount this year. Won’t have enough to last the year and replant this fall.
Looking for recommendations for a new varietal. Thanks.

We’re in town for a few days, staying near Casavant. We want to return there tomorrow for our anniversary. If we can’t, any recommendations for something special within,, say, 15 minutes walking distance? Thanks very much.

Some cherries but not one slicer yet. One Paul Robeson is finally blushing but nothing else. You?

Hi all. Have a procedure at Baystate at 7. Should be done by 8. Want a sundae. I live in Northampton. Any good place to stop and get one on the way home?

Hi all. I am struggling with good Chinese food in Amherst. I want to like Formosa, I really do. But I have been underwhelmed many times. Their Taiwanese stuff does not excite. I might be ordering the wrong things. Suggestions would be welcome.

Went to Lau Hu Tong two weeks ago. Talked em up big to my brother. Looks like they have stopped making their own noodles and wrappers. That "QQ" quality was gone. The chili wontons were premade lumps instead of those delicate swallowtails they've been, and the noodles were mushy, no trace of the delightful springy chewiness of the past. A huge letdown, and I was a bit embarrassed to hav raved so much to my brother.

Zhu's Bistro is gone. They may have been trying to be too many things to too many people, but I had 4 excellent meals from their Chinese menu. They were really really good, and now they are gone.

Lili's is fine, authentic as all get out whatever that means, but a bit one note for me, and a bit plain, and I'm not a huge hot and spicy fan.

I am so bummed! Rescue me people. And don't say Ginger Garden please.

Had to plant in mid March this year. Only three leaves have died back. Anybody got an idea of average time to harvest spring garlic?

Havent got around to trying it yet. Got to drive a bit to get to it. I see there are two in Springfield and one in turners Falls. Anyone got an opinion if one spot is better than the others? Thanks.

Can non residents park and swim at either beach? Thanks. Plus, how’s the water?

GOt a bunch. Any benefit to adding it to this years batch? Thanks.

Hi all. Driving up from Northampton to see Mavis. Please tell me the restaurants that aren't high end/white tablecloth joints that you like. A look at Yelp sez Noble Ramen is good. Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

I had a chart from Ball, real simple, listed the kind of fruit per cup (usually 1 1/3 cups), the amount of sugar (also listed no sugar), the amount of powdered pectin, maybe lemon juice. It was a simple grid, one pager. I lost it and I can't find it anywhere online. Does anyone have it? Could you please help? Thanks very much.

As a long time aficianado of the coney style dry meat sauce hot dog, I finally made it to Olneyville. As a place out of time, it was delightful. The hot dogs? Meh. Ruined, I thought, by the overly generous splotch of celery salt.

I see that there are at least two other places, EP and M and M. Are they any better? Are there more?

My ne plus ultra is George's Coney Island in Worcester. I had some pretty good ones at Graham's in Fall River some time ago. Teo's in Pittsfield MA is a strong contender. Real bakery rolls instead of factory fluff.

What do you all think? Please answer in excruciating detail.

Can grab lunch on the way to Saratoga Springs. Where should I stop?

Western MA 5b 6a. I lost access to my beautiful raised beds at a friend's house. (Long and very sad story. Dementia is a bitch.) So I built some raised beds against the side of the house. Wasn't sure about direct sun hours but it's now clear that 6 will be the max and I'm looking at more like 5. What will happen to my babies? Thanks very much.

For the starbar. And for the boost.

Yours, a seppo.

Been on a little Herzog kick. I'm wondering why Kinski wasn't a bigger star. He is an incredible actor. Seems like he didn't make any serious movies except for the Herzog ones. Just horror, exploitation, etc. Is it just because he was a horribly abusive lunatic? Or something else? Thanks.
