I’m sorry, Canada.
I live in Illinois, though, so I can relate.
Truth be told, I think both of our countries’ peoples would be better off if 2 became about 8-12 countries.

Mark 16:1-7
1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalen and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought sweet spices, that coming, they might anoint Jesus. 2 And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they come to the sepulchre, the sun being now risen. 3 And they said one to another: Who shall roll us back the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 4 And looking, they saw the stone rolled back. For it was very great. 5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed with a white robe: and they were astonished. 6 Who saith to them: Be not affrighted, you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen: he is not here. Behold the place where they laid him. 7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee. There you shall see him, as he told you.

I’m having some real issues with tomatoes, basil, and most of my cilantro, about 4.5 weeks in. Lot of droopy or dropping leaves.
About 13 hours of light a day. I water into the trays, so it wicks up.

We need a total of ~$6B per day - could be tariffs and cuts - to eliminate the budget deficit.

2025-04-07 21:56:14

I drove around Springfield, Illinois, and the surrounding small towns today, for work.
These are the places we should all hope tariffs - or more importantly the resulting negotiations from them - help bring back to life.
I saw lots of long shuttered industry, urban neighborhoods all but abandoned, small towns literally rotting and falling down.
The core has some bauble shops and nice restaurants, catering to the top 20-25%, but for the rest it is a liquor store, a gambling parlor, a Dollar General, and a Caseys.

I had about two gallon zip bags of shells (why I always buy shell on). I roasted them on sheet pans in the oven, for maybe 15 minutes.
Into a pot with cold water, an inch above them.
Bring just to not quite a boil, add some onion, carrots, & celery (also formerly in the freezer from cuttings), and simmer maybe 45 minutes more.
Lot of recipes call for white wine, but I never have any.
I’ve done it with crab shells added before, but rarely have those, and didn’t notice much difference.

Teenagers (particularly sons) make you understand why your father was the way you remember him in high school. It also reconciles you to ‘turning into him’ - I must hear myself repeating one of his sayings or quips, weekly (he is still alive, thank God, so he’ll remind me if I get one wrong 😂).
