tandem, is another

Love the quote. I must say that I at first questioned the availability of the cucumber in ancient Rome; so I looked it up. Found this interesting read on the history of such a random food item, LOL had to share. Not sorry:

Anger is temporary madness.

Good! Bring the language into the household… What are you “struggling” with right now? I am a language professor BTW. Math and numbers were never my thing; hah.

I have been pulling random quotes from random pages. Although someone pointed out that one was incorrectly quoted, but the concept stood; lol.

The things we worry about are normally the things that least matter; even though we build it up in our head. I have always been a rip-the-bandaid-off-quickly kind of person. Just get it done and over with asap.

Great story thanks for sharing. It is amazing how the little changes can have the biggest effects on us and our wellbeing.

Your GF is your best go-to resource over any application. Practice practice practice make mistakes with her who cares! It is the only way to learn. Spain will be awesome for you. I hope you enjoy it.

Hate it when the internet lies to me! Thanks for catching that; my mistake!

BTW love the Enchirideon. Read so many times my copy looks like a used napkin at this point.

Do as much as you can, when you can, where you can. However, to be fluent one needs to speak. I know, it sucks, but it is the necessary evil here. You can try a few applications like: Tandem; Conversation Exchange. These places you can find people/groups and chit-chat. It helped me. BUT, my tool was the immersion method, as I live in South America.

-Fluent in Spanish as an English native, living in Chile. Please, feel free to ask me anything!

This.

Ask them: How much money do they have in their bank account? How often do they have sexual relations?

Data privacy? I have nothing to hide. Freedom of speech? I have nothing to say.

I love madeiras. That nutty oxidative aroma is one of a kind. I collect vintage ports… they are my weakness lol

I have seen recipes for various flowers and reeds — such as dandelion, but have never tasted one. Now that I think of it, I have never seen one lol. Do it!

Sounds like it all worked out well!

25 lbs of fruit with 12 lbs of sugar all in 5 gallons??? Do you have a picture of this… I only ask because I am having a difficult time visualizing the volume.

I clicked on all three of your links. I still cannot see them.

This is a joint the size of a tampon.

Enjoy it!

Thanks! Melomels are great. I have found they are perfect intro meads for those who do not “like the taste of mead” as there is additional fruit flavors… Have had good luck with blackberry, blueberry, and 50/50 black/blue blends.

I do not know about other users, but I am unable to see the pictures on this specific post. They sound delicious though.

Beautiful color. How does it stand up to the 16%? Is there sufficient fruit or is it overpowered by the alcohol? I have some strawberry in the cellar, but I made it 11% off-dry.
