Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I thought about making relish but in the end the only green ones I had were these. 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It works! Been foo g that all summer. Paper and plastic bags work 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I made salsa in July and 20+ quarts of marinara last week. So yummy 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Definitely but picked them and put em in a bag on the windowsill that gets sun. I ripened bunches over the summer that way vans the red ones on the picture were ripened that way. Fingers crossed. 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It was a perfect tomato year for us here in the high desert. Only a few weeks of 95 plus temps and while nights were chilly it gave them the rest they needed 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026The last of the tomatoes to be cut up and frozen for soups and chili. picked the green ones in hopes that they’ll ripen. Gonna be freezing over the weekend. Sigh #Tomatoes #Gardening 5362
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 08/10/2026But you sure like an artificial face. Yourself and your blow up doll wife 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 07/10/2026The Moda Center sent me around the bend. Seriously let the rich pay for that and spend our tax dollars on healthcare and other necessities that help the average person 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I wish I could edit. It’s like she just realized it’s a toss up 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Definitely. I don’t listen to radio & have seen a few TV spots but I don’t watch much TV. I’m not on anything Meta. My daughter suggested tik tok too. But I’ve only seen an up tick on here recently. It’s like she just realized this is actors up 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Tina, I’m voting for you bc Drazen is a Trump sycophant but you should have been doing posts months ago. Where else are you posting? I know do many people who have seen nothing 160
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Forbes, how about he raises eyebrows for being a pedophile, a rapist, an insurrectionist, and a con man 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I want them to focus on meaningful legislation to help people and limit corruption, wars, and fiscal waste. Do that quickly even in the face of sure vetoes. Show what can be accomplished. Impeachment can come later. Don’t waste time on theatrics. Get shit done 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026And when they get the majority in January the need to quickly legislate things people want not get lost in retribution and impeachment even in the face of it being vetoed. Show what can be done 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I’ve never understood why abortion bans aren’t fought using the 1st amendment. Another one to use would be the interstate commerce clause now that states are outlawing women traveling to their states for abortions and banning abortion drugs from other states 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026That’s wonderful! Once we were fly fishing at Slough Creek, which empties into the Lamar River, and we watched bison stampede and heard wolves howling. So many stories about cool things. This sweet elk calf at Mammoth during rut as a big male charged an SUV 221
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Once upon a time when I was a professor, the class & I discussed freedom & what that means using the example of how in Singapore I could go for a walk without fear bc bad behavior is squashed immediately but in the US not so much. The class unanimously agreed that having a dictator was not so good 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Ruby is not much into bags or boxes but caught this one 8 years ago. 060
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 06/10/2026You’re killing me with the Yellowstone pictures. Love it there and we haven’t been since 2019. Long overdue. Best fish I ever caught was a brown trout on the Gibbon in Elk Meadow. Not a big one but given how clear the water, I was thrilled to catch anything 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Made marinara last week from 50 lbs. I have 5 or 6 San Marzanos on the vine that I’ll pick Thursday morning before the freeze hits this weekend. Gotta be honest, kinda sick of tomatoes this year, which I know is sacrilegious. It was a great year and year if it’s not, I’ll eat my words instead 030
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 05/10/2026As I commented, I don’t want a dem Congress to focus on retribution & just investigating corruption. Pass meaningful legislation addressing issues we care about & let him veto showing who wants to help & who doesn’t. I think he’ll resign & JD will pardon. 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I don’t want a dem Congress to focus on retribution & just investigating corruption. Pass meaningful legislation addressing issues we care about & let him veto showing who wants to help & who doesn’t. I think he’ll resign & JD will pardon. 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Love that view!! Thank you. And last I heard, anyone can own Terrible Tilly for 6.5M. 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 04/10/2026That keeps getting lost in this discussion. Even if she had been drinking prior, her friend did nothing. Well he did something. He got her more drunk, fed her other drugs, and then called his buddies in. The punishment I want for them is to be gang raped using every orifice 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Dems should pass immediately everything on their constituent’s wish list even tho it will be vetoed. Show what can be done. Do the impeachment & investigation of corruption later. But I’m really starting to believe he’s gonna resign to avoid impeachment & put the couch boy in charge for a pardon 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026All true and it’s not just Cornell. It’s not just the Ivies. It’s not just high visibility schools. This happens at many, most, all colleges and universities regardless of affiliation and stature. Doesn’t need a frat house, although their existence ups the odds. 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Econ 101. Butter or guns. You must choose. I learned that when I was 18 and a freshman in college 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026In light of the Cornell 7, the best movie ending ever. Ripped me to shreds the first time I watched. So sad and awful. #PromisingYoungWoman #Cornell7 youtube.com/watch?v=zJh5...youtube.comThe Wedding Revenge Scene | Promising Young WomanYouTube video by Popcorn Picks 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I’d love this more if men joined in on the take down. If any man saw or heard this conversation and do nothing, they’re complicit too 000
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026My brother in law and buddies took a deceased buddy’s ashes to their beloved Wriggly field and spread his ashes. The were escorted out by security 041
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Same! I saw them in San Francisco when 280 merged into 19th Ave (post Loma Prieta), was sure they were plastic, and thought it was so weird 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The first time I saw these about 35 years ago I was certain they were fake 120
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Definitely okay with this solution. Put on doors that go from ceiling to floor and that have no gaps on the sides. Like Europe and so many other places I’ve traveled. Kinda like universal health care. But nope, we can never learn from more advanced countries 040

Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Ummmm, weren’t those machines put in by republicans before 2020? As a poll watcher there in 2020 I saw how they worked. Ridiculous accusations 071
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026My mother boiled them until they were slim and made me eat them even though I gagged. Same for asparagus. Now I roast them with garnet yams and gladly eat them 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Cherry tomatoes still going strong. Chocolate cherry and sungolds. Made linguini with a sauce of olive oil, garlic, oregano, white wine, and a bunch of Parmesan. Simple and scrumptious #Tomatoes #Gardening 040
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It’s not just Cornell. It’s not just the Ivies. It’s not just high visibility schools. This happens at many, most, all colleges and universities regardless of affiliation and stature. Doesn’t need a frat house, although their existence ups the odds. 070
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I never heard of this treatment. We did butcher our own pigs though 110
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Right? I think I was fortunate to get a tetanus shot at 13 when I thought I broke my foot. Went to the ER even. Quite a concept. Not broken but I think that saved me with the nail in my foot at 15. Also amazing that we never broke anything. Jumping from hay lofts & doing generally stupid stuff 010
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Definitely better food wise and the way employees are treated is the cherry on top 020
Melinda L @mjl2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026One more reason I’ll keep my old car. She’ll be 22 in a month. 256,000 miles. I love her 010
