What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Let's all have a terrific day today!
 
sounds like your headache might be better.
Yes it is, still a small amount of lingering pain that my husband has named a migraine hangover but it's much better than it was the last two days.
 
Good morning, friends! I hope everyone is doing well and having a great start to your week!
off work, and here is the rain, never fails
 
I will certainly keep you posted! Right now im mixing some of the bacterial solution with the coral snow rather than dosing them separately. Sometimes I mix it with benereef powder as an advanced feeding solution.
My man doing it right!!
 
They closed our dunkin down and tore the building down to make the road bigger. Only choice we have is inglés grocery store or Walmart and none of them are as good as dunkin or better yet Krispy Kreme which is way over in Asheville over an hour from where I live.
Road Trip!!
 
A long long time ago during something called The Blizzard of ‘78 my mom made donuts to give us something to do and because it sounded yummy. We had lost electricity but the stove was gas. Since it was already on didn’t need to worry about the primer spark either. They were quite good.
We had a "Blizzard of 78" here in Michigan. We had snow drifts to the roof line, couldn't open the front door or garage door. My dad crawled through a window to get out and start clearing the snow from the front door and garage door.
 
Mmm I love apple fritters... 😆 who am I kidding I love just about any kind of sweet bread or just normal bread...
So do I. They were delicious and from scratch. He followed some YouTube video

Love memories like this.
I have made them a long long time ago in school using canned biscuits they were good but not the same.
Try scratch. Much better
Yeah she went all in from scratch . That was the worst single winter storm I had been for decades . I was only 14 back in Feb of 78. Used my then new Walkman radio as backround noise at night to help sleep.
I was 17 then. And Walkman was King!
 
I’m off to catch up on a few things . I’ll probably poke back in this later afternoon before my D&D game tonight.
I play D&D as well!
My man doing it right!!
And boy do I need the help.
Road Trip!!
Love a good roadtrip. Road our Polaris motorcycle from Kansas City Kansas to Casper Wyoming in one day. Never again. 🤪

That is a real man. My man is like that. Love me some real men.
