Well, I accidentally turned my ginger bug into vinegar. 😂 If you don’t know what a ginger bug is, it’s a wild fermentation starter made with ginger, sugar & water. This starter is used to make a kind of carbonated drink, kinda like pop, only healthier. I had ignored my ginger bug a little longer than I should’ve & noticed the bubbles had ceased & things were projecting that vinegar smell. So, while my intention was to keep an active ginger bug, I now have vinegar instead lol. On the bright side, I’ll still use this because it does still contain ginger, which is known for antioxidant and anti inflammatory activity. And it’s potential to help with nausea & digestive upset. And of course, the vinegar part too… Some research suggests it may help moderate the blood glucose response after eating. I’ve been thinking about making a tasty salad dressing with mine! I’ll bet I could make a tasty meat marinade as well! Ever make your own vinegar before?

The Polls have spoken! Zaleski State Forest here we come! I can hear that old country song...."Just a swinging! 😂

My studio has a side piece. Actually, three. The canvas knows. The rocks know. The half-finished crow painting is giving me the silent treatment.

Crook brings the drama. Carmella brings the crunch. Every power couple has a division of labor. He hoards, she cracks. Wait for the close-up, it's oddly satisfying. #crows #corvid #powercouple #snacktime #birdfeeder
