Coffee anyone ?

Enjoying coffee. Checked both dehydrators of figs, rotated trays....ate a couple Chores await. Another hot & muggy day out there. Summertime.

My figs were completely dry last night. They're in glass jars for storage.

I was wondering where you'd been, figured you were busy with something important.

Yeah off building a pig shelter I will get pictures of later, was too cloudy yesterday for them and usual clients stuff.

Look what I just found:

Homemade Fig Newtons Recipe

As Nabisco likes to remind us, Fig Newtons aren't just cookies, they're fruit and cake. Our homemade version pairs an easy fig preserve with a soft dough inspired by yellow cake.

First cup of coffee is brewing. My nocturnal tendencies have kicked in again & I've been up till 4am the last couple of nights. I'm glad I got the mowing done yesterday, it's already in the hot & humid out there.
Going to be an inside kind of day.

Yep, that's what the customer wants. Too cheap to have it hauled to the landfill.

OMG !! Saving that one for when my figs hopefully come in (and not harvested by birds). No idea why, but when I was a kid I called them shnerfuls - yeah - no idea why.

@Weldman hope you and your customer realize that RV/POS is going to be crushed by burying it? In our ignorance, at the time, we buried a 20ft container in a hillside on the property. The front was opened as we planned on using it for storage. Top and other 3 sides were buried. In the spate of 3 years the ceiling caved in. Bummer. Then again your customer may not care if it collapses on him.

That’s the point, they don’t want to haul it to the dump. Tip for burying a shipping container, flip it upside down. The floor of the hole is “bedrock” for a lack of a better term “solid” and gravity is pushing down. In the floor of a shipping container there is a brace about every foot made to hold 60k plus pounds that equates to 375 pounds per square foot. Thus with missing equations in my head it calculates to about 3’ is max depth without bracing when flipped upside down.

Check your feed labels! The sweet feed I use has more copper in it than it did. From 10 to 15 parts per million. Toxicity starts at 25 and I don’t feed a lot of sweet feed, so I don’t think that’s what killed my ram. Dang I hate the mystery deaths. Actually not keen on any. I feel like I ran over the Almighty’s dog then backed up to see what the noise was. It’s ok to laugh.
