I don’t see myself biking down to the river and back to paddle solo there, and maintaining direction would probably be more challenging than I’d enjoy. I’m probably better off saving my money to rent canoes at lakes where that’s an option. 2026-03-17T02:40:48Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqszcg7z70mmjfgrcc5wa3xsam0fx443x0fpc9vq9u372fy9amcjhwgzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0znf8fga In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfq7ct9wnmr99gmrr640f5fkrxgnylj7wjtslakh4vlt7d9mejakgfrezf4'>nevent1q…ezf4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Very low numbers, indeed! Still, the long leadership campaign has generated interest and involvement among the members. I attended 3 events last week, one of them being doorknocking with my candidate, Heather McPherson, the only sitting MP. We knocked only on members&#39; doors, and they had all voted or intended to vote for a leader. <br/>They held leadership forums, instead of debates, and all of the candidates were so passionate and so supportive of each other and their opinions. It was a breath of fresh air. 2026-03-16T14:53:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdgnwyajwh3p95zlsvhn7xgfayyg63cll6nlrmrdtusdylg9j37xczypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0z8uzfav In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqhfjjhmh9er6xdwucwmsn2ln9dx58zztz908t43rpcv0ul03s4rgjh4zxq'>nevent1q…4zxq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I mean handling.

I sketch out my map of where I want to go and the dates I&#39;m working with. I create a spreadsheet with the dates and locations, and probable costs. I book accommodations for weekends or locations with a lot of visitors, and I have a checklist of potential activities and locations in that area. Beyond that, I like to adapt my actual activities to the weather, my mood, and whatever draws my attention in a particular location. I generally avoid paying for high-priced attractions, activities, and tours, preferring the local flavour. Cooking or art classes are an exception.<br/>#roadtrip 2026-02-20T16:11:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsww3le0u7gwk7mph8cpcw5c2ejz54zfl87xf0l8gxp94w927rlg7qzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zt48j0u In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdyqjpaze8n5z85ca06tzq7h2y6n8257e8ezmcn6murgeu542wa7chml5qs'>nevent1q…l5qs</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Haha, love the flag! 2026-02-14T00:37:12Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs93zy87rjfz2wt9xfzxncg42ern3kmmemg7d4pnvt6j4zxaem6k4gzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0znf6f9n In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw6d3ezr8kttvea5f6uuluwmycu3yuk2cyg6nxpnez94708ydk70gs3jwra'>nevent1q…jwra</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>He&#39;s here, as <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1af8vtlrcavmx56kvrmcqu0yp9l6ehhpl950e9lfcye88w3xh9gnqe5n8hk" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Ben Lockwood, PhD</span> (<span class="italic">npub1af8…n8hk</span>)</a></span> 2026-02-13T15:50:26Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrntthtamjd3xh304lx8ufwue4zthxz3lwek824jtm83t7sac3luszypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0z8wtprj In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspefff00tsnqct7ea9g5uhkk22y4jhfmga8eh8g3nyeqpf3d7m65cen8h6t'>nevent1q…8h6t</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I often see the #OldGal or #YoungPups hashtags, but I don&#39;t know their significance or origin.

I&#39;ve had a tendency to buy spices from everywhere when I can, and then, I rarely use many of them. Some, like cumin and coriander, are worth buying in bulk because I frequently use them for my everyday cooking. I bought a tortilla press this week, because I took a class, and I think it will help with making Indian flatbreads as well. However, I got it secondhand for $8, and I&#39;ll happily donate it back if I don&#39;t wind up using it much.<br/>Since early COVID, I find that I bulk cook my main ingredient(s) at the start of the week, and then eat a similar meal for several days. It&#39;s less variety than I&#39;d like, but also a LOT less waste, cost, and time. 2026-01-02T18:19:19Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxt6qx303y842d7jnkqqhajtnngm3ttdl5eh9myzc2rm0evkcpauczypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zce28mq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxkp49jf6rpjj8tm6a0crzgtv50nhqywvx7t6kk22gdh85zfpyaqqcd60ax'>nevent1q…60ax</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Those fires and their smoke are quite appalling, and we also have many more, and longer heatwaves than previously.

I volunteered for the local land trust, which manages multiple parcels of land around #YEG, the city where I currently live. I was saying bad words about getting ready on a dark and snowy morning to go out to the farmer&#39;s market. However, this was where I shopped a couple of times/month for years, and it didn&#39;t disappoint. The local veggies were very high quality, especially the ones that are grown in a &#34;vertical garden&#34; in the city.

For example, until recently, adultery was illegal in South Korea, and the wronged party can sue and seek damages from both their cheating spouse, as well as the person that they cheated with. It doesn&#39;t seem to matter whether or not the third party knew that their partner was already married.<br/>Joint custody doesn&#39;t seem to be a thing in Korea, and the mom I hung out with tonight received NO child support of any sort when she left her cheating spouse with a young child.

Pretty sure I added way too much salt to the first, and too many Alleppo chili flakes to the second, but I&#39;m more likely to eat these than plain old cukes, especially in the quantity I received.<br/>Today is also meant to be #borscht day, but I&#39;m struggling with vertigo, so I&#39;ve been watching #kdrama (Sh**ting Stars) instead.<br/> <img src="https://cdn.mstdn.ca/media_attachments/files/114/915/620/484/713/659/original/10b5877db3fd62dd.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://cdn.mstdn.ca/media_attachments/files/114/915/620/495/428/373/original/597f7172e9fd9c01.jpeg"> <br/> 2025-07-25T20:02:19Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8265dj4w39d3a5dn3enwj2rn7dfw3mjmrhqkzn9y58g8zd6uad3gzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zt8s0y9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf29epurnd3nqgkhfr59p7l5y9v9lqpwvxkfmcc6tyl7ehwkd98ngkx52df'>nevent1q…52df</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>My veg bag had root veggies today!

I forgot about giving you that recipe. Glad that it&#39;s working out well for you. My fermentation kit is from Lee Valley, a Canadian company, I believe. It works well with a 2-litre wide-mouth jar. <br/>The recipe can be customized in so many different ways.<br/>One of the women in my language group brought assorted banchan (Korean side dishes) to our BBQ, and she orders them from a woman who makes them for sale. I want to get her contact info, so that I can try out more banchan and then make the ones that I like. Of course, I could do the same at H-Mart, but that isn&#39;t as much fun. 2025-07-24T18:53:30Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8hupnxp8s62e4tf2zyjhl4a7lasd5zj4f3fmfp9scymwrlj4nvzqzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zgm2l04 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9actx9j6sa49eqtqxj0eskgsctgc2vgcal6zh963dycq7qlj9sys7q4dut'>nevent1q…4dut</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Ummmm, &#34;have to&#34;?? 2025-07-20T23:57:57Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqswagyvevfn8duccpafun7pe3euqtvqpwccz8w02nttsd9zkx8cl8gzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zqw0hxf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdl8yhfg356anxm5l2heuga2dt6sa2knq539g4r0ungnz084npffsgyr0a3'>nevent1q…r0a3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yup, that&#39;s a Monarch!

For my latest dresses, I&#39;m making inseam AND patch pockets because I like the ease of patch pockets at home but inseam pockets are great for putting your hands in when you have to stand around. 2025-03-09T04:46:06Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsdwptsvry8m0pv4vwh7d27hjsj8npj4ckm5jafajx5fr0sw2sc3rczypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zk7clgf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg20x2ps53zuc3xr7y5qx5sq76ds93smfa3mqqjy2dp08f0y4herc0uwvnp'>nevent1q…wvnp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Oh, so fun!! I LOVE French seams, even with the extra work. I liked a lot of the design aspects of the Studio Tunic and I also made it with thrifted fabric (a sheet). However, none of the fit really worked for me when it was complete. I&#39;d like the centre seam and yoke, biggish pockets but I&#39;d like it to fit more like a dress than a tunic, personally. I may rework or I may just make dozens of #HinterlandDress iterations!<br/>#sewing 2025-03-09T02:58:15Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqv8p60ayf5x9h2mgkhsk633jzesjtgycrs7h4xpdmvnkc8537h9qzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zwgq2a4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv285ur0qvajhpaspd4xt0cutqes6aqhz0dzw3a30dlly7rvasukcf26d59'>nevent1q…6d59</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It&#39;s trickling through. 2025-02-28T19:31:45Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqstnevzfyhxjukyyf54u7ptsuhd6n8ge0fd8kkc84zx6zqely6aaqszypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0z8t5eek In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrmadfnxcepgk87ajjcldaatetth00xdw809eh6nue0zajrss3xqsu69qx3'>nevent1q…9qx3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It&#39;s made a huge difference that I no longer have to go out to a workplace in order to survive. Employers have a lot of overreach on how you dress, speak, your schedule, and so much more. I&#39;m finding a lot of contentment in retired life! 2025-02-22T16:47:45Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs93upq9wmalts674xmcnel0uqa0xnw64jw65z3zssse760dddekyqzypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0z9hkxgn In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs87vtc5mq7tedff2elv0j7xau074mnv790p2t5uzau9k58uu5q4pc4mfulp'>nevent1q…fulp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The pockets looked so cool! But they are too big and they&#39;re not in the best place either. I&#39;m gradually sorting out my ideal pockets for various garments: size, shape, and location. I&#39;ve completed 6 Hinterland dresses and I like each of them in their own way. The last 2, I made with batik cottons, deeper inseam pockets and large patch pocket on the front. I used narrow bias binding and made v-necks. I have more batik for #7! <br/>They&#39;re my everything dress now. <br/>#pockets <br/>#sewing 2025-02-04T04:32:39Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqstms638kh6666nd3ld9jnnucpymwquxzgu8jkq95nzrau07usju3szypgpujl6w4jezp73utlvql9zw0xf4hnzcul765n52v4555sf9hv0zqmpqkw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsty9qy6re6aexqmvh9hacuxm8u29gp9hx2tlfn3h0x78cmfzjk4jqfvywkc'>nevent1q…ywkc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I love the concept of that tunic as well as several of the design features.
