Helle Adul

I closed the fundraiser. Thank you to everyone who helped us. We still have a roof above our heads. It’s all in Gods hands from here. The blankets are going to Susan G S in Michigan and Nick G in TX. Thank you all for caring. Love and hugs to all

@antheiastar78 @fenixash8 @fenixash8 do you know the recipe

@fenixash8 Who is this? She posted me the recipe but I lost it when they suspended my account back then😭 I wanted to make and started looking through my archives and have the photo but no recipe🥲 It's from Dec 2021

@1abbeynormal Love and hugs

Big birthday coming up and I decided on a tattoo for myself. This conveys my heartbreak about my adult children being estranged from my and my ex and also each other. I had to stop and let them go through whatever they’re going through. But I miss them…. Bigly.

@SuchATimeAsThi3 @DKH013 Might try the crochet one, who knows. These days it’s AI mostly, isn’t it

@DKH013 @AdulHelle The 10 *AI* ladies were creative 👏🏻

Her creativity is truly unmatched The way she turned a simple idea into something so beautiful and inspiring is honestly amazing 😍👏 Talent like this deserves all the love and appreciation ❤️

@MissMommapeach I slept from 6 to almost 8 smh

@AdulHelle I scolded myself then went back to sleep. 😁

Why am I up at the crack of dawn? User error.

facebook.com/share/r/17JTmB…. First part is our house every day 🤣 might just give him the second half

@end3of6days9 @Zerahzz I got my hands on him when he was 8, had never been to school, couldn’t read or write, tie shoes etc. He took a 2 year break from us in 2019, went backwards w no school and normalcy. He’s back on track, graduates HS next month and is looking forward for college

@end3of6days9 @Zerahzz I’m not surprised. Our little boy knows his bday/year. Looks up Ss# when needed, I store all his important docs (upon his request) and calls on a lot of things. He’s planning to move to CO, not sure what we do about important papers. Currently he lives 10 min away from us 🤷‍♀️

This lady had the most “you can’t make this up” moment with a patient in her early twenties. The young woman comes in, starts filling out new patient forms, and literally doesn’t know her own birth year and has to call her mom for help. Then she gets to the SSN field and says, “I’m not on social security… why would I have a number?” The lady is sitting there like… “It’s too early for this.” 😭 And the crazy part is that she didn’t even think to pull out her phone, open the calculator, and just subtract her age from this year to figure out her birth year. Listen, parents — our kids are growing up fast. We’ve got to make sure we’re teaching them the basic life stuff before we send them out into the world. Some things you just can’t Google your way through in the moment. Have you ever had one of those “I can’t believe this is real” moments with a young adult who was missing some basic life knowledge?

@1abbeynormal Happy Birthday 🎈

Client comes over this morning as I was coming back from work. She leaves me a ginormous gift bag with flowers and birthday goodies. I asked if I could look on my birthday and she said yes. Flowers in water though lol! I’m blessed with great friends. Blessed!

Our senior dogs had a big beach day out. I promise this will make you smile from ear to ear ❤️

It has now been one month since Lucy's collar slipped over her head. One month since she was loose in my yard for a few seconds. One month since nobody got hurt. One month since nothing happened. It has also been one month since the police were called. One month since animal control issued me a court summons. One month since they took my dog, the dog I bonded with in war ten years ago. One month since my world turned into a living hell. It has been one month since nothing happened. And it has been one month since everything happened, in response to nothing. She has spent one month in jail. Over nothing. Away from everything. One month away from her fields. Away from Lex. Away from the kids. Away from @Herb_Minstrel and me. Let her come home. It's been long enough. It's time. It's damn time. #SaveLucy I have nothing more to say. @LoneStarChica @catturd2

Good Morning Friends ☕☕

Every Honeycrisp apple is a clone of a single tree planted at the University of Minnesota in 1962. Every one. Apple seeds are random. Plant a Honeycrisp seed and the new tree produces a small, sour apple that’s usually inedible. So apple growers do something old and clever. They cut a small branch off the original Honeycrisp tree, slot it into a slit in a young apple sapling, wrap the joint, and wait. The branch fuses to its new host and starts producing Honeycrisps. About 20 million Honeycrisp trees exist worldwide, every one a piece of that 1962 tree on different roots. Same goes for Gala, Fuji, Pink Lady, Granny Smith. Every Granny Smith on Earth traces back to a seedling found in 1868 by a woman named Maria Ann Smith in Australia. She’d thrown French crab apple cores onto her compost heap, one of them sprouted, and the apples it bore were unusually tart and good for cooking. That one tree is the ancestor of every Granny Smith in every grocery store on the planet. Wine has the bigger story. In the 1860s, a tiny aphid called phylloxera caught a boat from America to France, hidden in some grapevine cuttings. It eats grape roots. French vines had no defense and started dying everywhere. Within 15 years, French wine production crashed from about 11 billion bottles a year to 3 billion. The blight then tore through Italy, Spain, and Germany, and European wine was on the edge of collapse. The rescue came from Missouri and Texas. American grapevines had grown up with phylloxera and were immune to it. So growers chopped French grape varieties off at the trunk and joined them to American roots. Above the soil: still French grapes. Below the soil: aphid-proof American root. It worked. Today, almost every bottle of French, Italian, Spanish, Australian, and Californian wine you’ve ever drunk sits on top of an American root. The technique is ancient. Chinese farmers were grafting trees by 1000 BCE. A Greek medical text from 424 BCE describes it casually, like it was already old news. It works because plants don’t have a rejection system the way animals do. Cut two branches. Match the green layers just under the bark. Wrap them tight. In a few weeks the plumbing has fused into a single plant. A Syracuse University art professor named Sam Van Aken has spent 18 years building a single tree that grows 40 different fruits: peaches, plums, apricots, cherries, nectarines, almonds. In spring it blossoms in pink, white, and crimson all at once. He’s made more than a dozen. They sell for up to $30,000 each. Without grafting, there would be no commercial apple industry, no global wine industry, and most of the heirloom fruits humans have bred over the centuries would have gone extinct. One clean cut, and you’ve kept entire species alive.

@_yogi_Bear_316 @Zerahzz Good morning ☀️

Good morning y'all happy Sunday! Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

I don't know if you noticed the difference in cake mixes. They used to be 15.25 oz now 13.25 oz. This was posted in a baking group I'm in.... "We’ve talked about the change in the weight of the cake mixes. A friend of mine contacted Betty Crocker about it because a cookie we make with the cake box mix has been flopping lately. Betty Crocker representative called her back and said add 1/4 cup of flour to get it back to original weight. I have not tried it yet but thought I’d share with you all."
