inSerious question, did my peace lily just teach me about patience?
Forget the light theory from wendy674 for a second. It's about the plant's internal clock finally syncing up. That lily was in a dark corner for who knows how long, basically hibernating. The move shocked its system, but it still took months to reset and actually do something. The humidity was the final trigger, but the real lesson is that plants operate on a timeline we can't see. They make changes underground before anything shows up top.

inI was at the feed store in Bend and saw a guy with a bucket of kitchen scraps for his flock
Forty bucks a month is a HUGE savings. That guy must have a massive flock to cut his feed that much. Makes me wonder what else he's feeding them.

inHad a power stretcher head snap clean off on a 20x15 living room last Thursday.
Has been a beast" is the understatement of the year. That thing probably has its own heartbeat by now. I've seen those old Crain stretchers outlive family pets. At this point, it's less of a tool and more like a retired linebacker living in your van. You could probably stretch carpet over concrete with it and it wouldn't even notice.

inSo this guy at the dig site in New Mexico last year kept calling every piece of pottery 'a ritual object'
Remember my friend's weird bronze thing they called a ritual butter knife.

inMy grandma's neighbor in Toledo showed me how to stretch a single chicken into three meals back in 2010.
Tell me the actual steps for that. My grocery bill is killing me and I need real tricks, not just the idea. What was the first meal you made?
