We're going through 10 gallons of ro/di a day in our humidifier. I can barely keep up with that, plus evap from my already running tanks. I haven't been able to make up enough water to get the contest tank filled again. 1 3 Quote Link to comment

empresto Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 The thing I can't figure out is how work knows when I want to do something fun. I can go weeks without them needing hardly anything from me and then, as soon as I find something interesting I'd like to do, they have a million needs. I'm a database consultant, so my schedule isn't very consistent anyway, but it's nearly guaranteed to be a busy week of I choose to go on vacation.ย Apparently I should join a nano-reef contest anytime I want to significantly increase my time and earnings ๐ 2 6 Quote Link to comment

seabass Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Quote Bakinโ 9 to 5: Dolly Parton rolling out limited-edition baking mixes by: Kaylee Douglas/KFOR, Nexstar Media Wire ย OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) โ Dolly Partonย andย Duncan Hinesย are collaborating on a line of baking mixes and frostings inspired by Dollyโs southern roots. โIโve always loved to cook. Growing up in the South exposed me to that authentic Mom & Pop kind of cooking. Baking was no different. I had plenty of people to show me whatโs what in the kitchenโฆ my Mama, my grandmothers and my aunts were all wonderful bakers,โ said Parton. โThey taught me everything I know, from biscuits and gravy to chocolate cake. Now I am proud to share some of those favorites with all of you.โ ย The Dolly Parton line includes a banana cake mix, a coconut cake mix, buttercream frosting, and chocolate buttercream frosting. Duncan Hines is even creating a baking collection box that includes a Dolly-inspired tea towel and spatula. If you want to bake just like Dolly, Duncan Hines has also included recipes for both the banana puddinโ cake and coconut cake. Dollyโs Baking Collection will be available online starting at 8 a.m. EST on Jan. 26. 2 Quote Link to comment
