Mrs. rynne and I went out to a nice Belgian restaurant for our very belated anniversary dinner.  I got mussels with fennel and chorizo and a fuckton of frites.  Mrs. rynne tried mussels (with garlic and parsely) for the first time and found them delicious.  She also had a fuckton of frities.  Of course, Belgian beers were drunk as well.

Please tell me their frites are labelled in "regular", "medium" and "fuckton" quantities.

Tim,  just had a desire to "like" that post, as if this were Facebook. I suppose this will suffice:
:lol:

I don't think there was an option for less than a fuckton, honestly.  Or, as the Beligans say, "een fuckton."

In France, it's "le fuckton royal with cheese."

Insanely jealous of your access to Belgian food, rynne. :op

Vegemite on olive sourdough is delicious.

harvested all my jalapenos yesterday, pickled and canned them.  I am interested to see what their heat factor will be.  Next will be the bolivian rainbow peppers and thai peppers.

do you need sunlight? i always assumed i couldn't grow anything here because we don't get any direct light
Oh hi

I use artificial light.  We have such a short outdoor growing season here, it's the only way to stay perpetual.

hmm i will have to look into this
Oh hi

Knowing BC, I bet you can find lights.  I know since the medical cannabis stuff started here, there are grow shops everywhere and tons of good deals on craigslist.  T5 flourescent tubes are relatively cheap and put out more than enough light to grow (and at a low wattage, so they dont cost much to run).  Even CFL's can work.

Yeah there's a hydroponics store within walking distance of my house, it never occurred to me I could have a legitimate reason to visit though :lol:
