I’ve been known to attach a cordless drill to a pepper mill when I need a half-cup of freshly ground pepper for a dry rub. Too bad I can’t post it or a URL here.
You must live in the Pacific Northwest, like me in Oregon. The invasive Himalayan Blackberry is a scourge. That said, when on a walk, if I don’t pick them fast, my English Setter will pick them himself. Ditto for my two previous dogs.
I don’t come to GoComics very often so pardon me if this is well known: Is there a specific reason why Stone Soup is doing ~30-year-old reruns, e.g. is she taking a break, ill, or retired? The “About” tabs here don’t mention anything.
How about the classic, “The Princess Bride” which had “sinking sand” in the “Fire Swamp”?
