The Pied Piper is leading the nation into a Technocratic Banker Abyss! But, MAGA glasses block seeing things clearly.

So now when I pay cash, and I am due 16 cents change. A store will not want to eat the extra 4 cents, and give me 20 cents. I may be told I cannot get correct change. UNLESS, I don't use cash to pay. But MAGA can't see the forest for the trees on this one... We are moving to a casheless society, at MAGA speed, formerly known as Warp Speed!
It cost more to make more than just pennies. Due to the deflation of our currency. Via a Federal Reserve system, that will be more empowered now. Coins come from the US mint, they are not debt notes like Federal Reserve notes, aka dollars.
Our hens decided to take holiday break starting around Halloween. So today I gave them a pep talk and let them know that they may have made it to Thanksgiving but free-loader soup is on the menu for Christmas.
I got a real chuckle out of this one. A sweet 4H teen agreed to help milk our goat while we visit my parents for Thanksgiving. I noticed right away we’d have a bit of a challenge, given the 2 inch long acrylic nails. She just had them done and said, “I haven’t had nails in 3 years!” Perfect timing. 🤣We tested them out. This is why I never have nice nails and had one person comment, “you look like you play hockey.”
I can’t believe I’m 44 making marshmallows for the first time. It’s so easy and they taste great, not to mention they’re so much healthier than store bought marshmallows. Here’s how we made them.
++ In a mixing bowl, combine 22g grass-fed gelatin & 1/2 cup water. Mix. Set aside.
++ In a stove top safe pot, combine 1/2 cup water, 1 1/2 cups sugar (we used organic maple) and 1 1/4 cups syrup sweetener (we used organic maple syrup). Add a pinch of salt. Boil at 240 degrees for 5-6 minutes.
++ Start whisking your gelatin on low speed and add the hot syrup. Slowly bring speed up on mixer until it’s on high. It took about 6-8 minutes before our mixture looked like marshmallow goo.
++ Prep your pan for the goo by greasing it and sprinkling powdered sugar all over it.
++ Pour goo into pan, sprinkle powdered sugar on top, let sit for 12 hours.
++ Grease your knife and dip it into powdered sugar, then cut your marshmallows into whatever shape you want.
++ Sprinkle more sugar on all sides
