I don't care about squirrels but if they ate my tomatoes (if I had tomatoes) I would kill them with pellets from an air rifle

I've never seen a squirrel eat a tomato

they ate a bunch of mine last week.

Birds are pretty cool, but some are huge assholes that need to be :commisar:'d for the sake of having a variety of birds around and not just one bully species

Strawberries are delicious tho

Y'all should mix hot pepper seeds in with your bird seed to remind those tree rats as to who has the brains and thumbs

Yah that is just super great advice. I skipped the fence this year and just planted peps around the perimiter of my garden and the bunnies have left everything alone. Capsaicin is chem warfare against mammals.

And to contribute to the thread, I actually really like the pepper KOs. I ended up with an assortment of Bumblebee dines because they were on sale and just too much of a deal to pass up. I've never had anything but KO brisling dines and I'm a little nervous to dig into the Bumblebees.

Even the bad deens are usually still pretty decent, just not top flight fishes

Some of the water packed cheap ones are legit bad though

Grow some Fatalii chilis, you'll thank me later. It's like a habanero made twice as delicious

Also you're gonna wanna dress those Bumblebees up. I had a tin of those in water once.

Once.

Thanks for the tips guys, I really appreciate it. I picked up 3 each of soybean oil, hot sauce, and mustard packed. Hopefully they won't suck too bad, but they were 3/$1 so whatever I guess. It's a small town and I think I'm the only one eating them.

I appreciate the suggestion about the Fatalii peppers. I've never heard of them before. I'll have to pick up some seeds for next year, I have all of the gear to start them from seed in my (cold) climate since I used to grow a ton of weed. The thing I'm really excited about is my pickled Hungarian wax peppers, I stuff them with sauerkraut before I pickle them and they always go fast.

Oh and King of Bees needs to home smoke some more dines, that poo poo sounds amazing.

Got into dines before this thread and then I started reading it to see why it's gold.

I'm big into the Brunswicks but really they're the only kind I ever see at the store. I'm a big fan of the jalapeno ones, and mustard of course, are they really pleb tier? What are some better ones that a Canadian can get at say a Metro, RCSS, Safeway, Zehr's, Sobeys?? Do you really have to order some of this poo poo on Amazon?

We moved to an apartment about a month ago, away from my parents who had a good bird feeder, and we missed feeding the mockingbirds raisins (they'd fly up to us, or even sit on the window sill and look in, and wouldn't be too skittish); we're on the second floor with a balcony and we have a couple of trees/a small field where the squirrels hang out. I love them :mad:

I put some of my sunflower seeds on the porch after seeing that one in the picture on the balcony earlier, and one of the three squirrels ate them while we were out. :3: I bought them more nuts.

I have a potted tomato plant (and basil, chives, mint and some succulents) on the balcony and they haven't hosed with them yet. I talked to my dad earlier and he said they're actually having a hard time with the chipmunks and my mom's flower garden. But I like all rodents!

If you like brunswicks, they're fine. I've seen Rigas at Provigo stores. If you keep an eye open, Pastene makes sardines too, with spicy oil varieties. They're usually the bigger sardines. I've seen them at Metro -their canned mackerels are also pretty nice.

Look for Clover Leaf brislings! The Mediterranean flavour is awesome. they're the same fish as the KOs everybody talks about itt, and I've seen em at the local sobeys and superstore

Christened the rice cooker with some bulk jasmine. Was fine rice at the end. Went nicely with the sweated onion/carrot/chopped roast tomato/sliced garlic topping and a few Crown Prince bristling broken up over top of it all. I normally hate gadgets in the kitchen but the rice cooker may earn its keep.

I'm strongly anti-gadget when it comes to kitchens, but I don't count rice cookers as a gadget anymore because they're just too simple and perfect at what they do. Even at my most minimalist vagabond status, my slow cooker and rice cooker were always by my side

I originally had a Zoji and it was awesome, but I left it to my brothers when I moved out of their place and got myself a $30 Aroma from Target and it's been doing work for me ever since and is also awesome. I like the brown rice setting because I can use that one for lentils.

The Goodwill $2 ones with just one button are also awesome

Basically made this dish the other day with some mediteranian dines, except I added chopped up zuccini and cooked everything but the rice in a pan. It's pretty amazing.

Eating some Wild Planet dines for the first time. On Triscuits with sambal. I really like them. Good texture and slight smoky flavor. Would eat again. Remind me of Belas but 5 or 6 fish instead of 3 huge chucks.

Wild Planet 'dines are indeed good. I used them in my breakfast.

Cooking them over low heat while the kasha heats up.


Add eggs, watch as kasha comes to boil (15 minutes).


Top egg/sardine mix over finished kasha, eat with coffee.

Today's dadly score: two each Polar kippers/Pampa smoked herring fillets in oil/Cento anchovies/Pampa mackerel/Beach Cliff mustard 'dines, one K.O. jalapeņo, quarter pound of habanero, and a massive jar of dill pickles. Also found out Wally World stock Tiny Tots so I'll have to grab some next big grocery trip.

Wasa makes "thins" now.



I bought the sesame ones. They are very flavorful and still sturdy enough to hold some 'dines. I recommend getting some if you see them.

When I first started eating sardines I would find that my local target was often running dangerously low on KO. But after several months of my tin a day habit their replenishment system has compensated and now they are always well stocked.

Basically I'm a job creator.

There was a crushed can of sardines in the supermarket and it spilled all over me.

I can't get the smell out. I want to barf. Lord only knows how long it was sitting there like that since I'm the only person in the world who ever buys them.

Heat dissolves oils. Take a very hot shower or near scalding bath. Soak your clothes in hot water, not my fault if they shrink though.

My hands took the brunt of the scent and I eventually got the stink out with enough hand washing that now my eczema is now acting up from my dried out skin.

Eczema: The dadliest skin condition? At least that I can handle.

Still, I'm going to smell that stench in my nightmares. When I told one of the people who works there, the guy immediately turned to his subordinate and told him to have fun.
