Anyone growing this? If so, HOW?! I’ve tried starting it 4 times this year and not a single sprout. Once indoors ahead of the season and 3 times direct sowing. I got seeds from Johnnys and Gardners workshop so it’s gotta be me or my conditions? Zone 5b, direct sowed 1/8 in deep, kept moist and nothing. So now I’m trying a bit deeper 🤷‍♀️

Could I use Nesquik chocolate powder to flavor an Italian meringue buttercream? I don’t understand the science behind baking/ frostings. Anyhoo, my favorite frostings are a chocolate whipped cream my mom used to make with Quik and Yo’s Italian meringue. For serving though , the whipped cream breaks down so quickly. This is the buttercream recipe, if you think it would work, when would I add? https://howtocakeit.com/blogs/recipes/yos-famous-italian-meringue-buttercream

Fellow TMJD’er with a bad neck. I also happen to have lipedema which predisposes me to lymphedema so I started doing the Big 6 Method of lymphatic massage. It’s a quick rubbing of the big drainage points in the body, 4 of those 6 points happen to be in the neck, collarbone, front of shoulder/ armpit area. And damn, my neck and jaw completely loosen up afterwards! Worth a go if your TMJ issues are muscular. Hypothesizing on why it might be working for this as well, is perhaps providing some fascial release and helping to clear some of the metabolic waste produced by chronic muscle tightness and bringing some oxygen to those muscles. Idk, but it’s quick and free so I thought I’d share.

My neurologist is out of office this entire month, I’ll see him March 2nd. But I’m frustrated and a bit scared. I have neck issues, first did PT for them around 18 months ago. Straightening of the cervical spine, arthritis and some bulging discs. As well as a C1 that shifts over to the right and stays there, triggering nerve pain in my face. I’ve done 2 rounds of PT , around 5 months each. The last 8 months have been mostly stable aside from worsening neck tension which led me to start stretching my upper/ lower back, chest and shoulders. It felt great at first, I can stand up straighter with less neck fatigue and tightness! Until it didn’t. Now I’m alternating days between the neck tension

Worried about my husband and not at all tech savvy. If I get him this ring, can I put the app on my phone and will I get notifications or alarms if he stops breathing/ his oxygen level gets too low? Does it matter if he’s sleeping in another room down the hall? I can’t find answers on how close in proximity the ring needs to be to the phone. Can we both have the app installed and get information from the ring? So like he’s sleeping in a room with the ring and his phone, but my phone will also get the alert? He’s a very heavy sleeper and I don’t think a vibration will wake him. But my real concern is that he could stop breathing completely and I would’nt be awake/ aware in order to get him ai
