  • Spider Herb Bed

    Spider Herb Bed

    So this one’s been in the works for a while. Here’s how my husband and I made it. He dug a pit about 3 and a half feet wide and about 6-8 inches deep, or about a meter and 7 cm wide and about 15-20 cm deep. I then roll/walked over the plastic trash can…

    Feel free to add fruits or berries when layering the ice and citrus in the glass. Whatever you think would go good with it. I’m thinking pineapple © https://www.newbookofdays.com 2026

    Degrossifying Sponges, also Tinctures

    Two posts in one this time. Ok so you may have heard of the sponge de-grossifying thing before. You put kitchen sponges in a pot, cover them with boiling water, let it cool, then wring them out and put them back. Do this once or twice a week and you won’t have a problem with…

These camp chairs and other camping items seem to be easier to acquire in some areas than laundry drying racks but…

  • Peanut Butter Sandwich With Odd Side

    Peanut Butter Sandwich With Odd Side

    Shouldn’t work but it does. Yes that is salsa. I tried dipping a peanut butter sandwich in it. Give it a try if you’re curious. It should also work with a peanut butter cheese sandwich. Parents originally tried that in Holland a long time ago with good natural peanut butter and Gouda. © https://www.newbookofdays.com 2026

  • Texan’s Nightmare Chili

    Texan’s Nightmare Chili

    This came out surprisingly well. It’s vegan, but my husband added some of it to his hamburger with hamburger flavor mix and it was pretty good that way also. Also he likes it as it is, on its own. Eureka! © https://www.newbookofdays.com 2026
