Does anyone have any good deep dish pizza recipes? Specifically for the crust? The craving has struck again for a Chicago deep dish and as there is no deep dish to be found in the land of flat crusts, I am in need of recipe suggestions.

I’m moving internationally in the next few months, and am coming to realize I have never moved with plants! Is it possible to move with my plants? I imagine I have to consider things like quarantine and such, but I have a snake plant that I basically raised from the dead and have had for seven years so the idea of leaving him behind makes me all kinds of sad. Do I need to just gift them to other plant moms?

Found a fun place called the Ghost Donkey. I can’t remember the exact brands, but they were tasty!

Edit: found the ingredients!

Old fashion had peloton mezcal, st. george coffee liqueur, Chinese five spice and orange bitters

The watermelon margarita has sotol por siempre, rayu mezcal, basil, agave, fresh watermelon & lime juice, citrus salt

I’m heading off to the liquor store later this week in search of some ingredients for the Christmas cocktails recommended to me. I’ve got vodka and spiced rum I like, but for things like Coquito and the Godfather, I’m not sure what brands would work best. I’ll need a whisky (or bourbon?) white rum and amaretto. What do all of yall like for mixing?

Trying to get ahead of the game, I’ve got six people staying with me for a week this holiday season and I would love to make a kind of batch cocktail. I’ve made egg nog in the past and loved it, but I’ve got two avid egg nog haters and one gluten free dietary restriction. Is there anything I can make that is generally well liked but still fun? I like decorating my drinks and making them all fancy. I mostly drink whiskey based cocktails, but I also enjoy every kind of cocktail that doesn’t have gin.

I have never seen anything like this? I’ve separated it from the rest of my plants, it’s the only one with this problem! Why is it purple??

So, my mom in law left me all of her plants while she travels abroad for the next month and told me her coffee plant has been looking a little sickly and she can’t figure out why. I know absolutely nothing about this plant, but thought I would try and help heal it for her if I can while she’s away. Does anyone know what could be causing the leafs to brown? The newer leafs on top are growing fast and healthy, and the soil feels good and doesn’t have any signs of rot or infection. It’s also not in any kind of harsh light or in a dark corner, and it’s in a place where the humidity is slightly higher than the rest of the house, but not a significant amount. I’ve had it for a week now, but I can’t seem to make the lower leafs happy.

Basically the title, I want to make baked potato soup and while I have a good vegan cheese and sour cream I like to use in other soups, I’ve never tried making such a traditionally dairy heavy soup. I have tried a coconut based heavy cream substitute, but I found it to be a bit sweet. Is there a better heavy cream sub for a more savory flavor? Or maybe the brand I bought just happened to be sweet? Any advice is welcome!

Got a little excited and accidentally picked some still green ones, but hey! First ever fruit I’ve grown! Tastes all the sweeter for it! Thanks everyone for all of your advice! I’ve got so many more still turning, I’ll have to make some blueberry cobbler once they’re all done.

Hi friends! I got some flower seeds as a gift recently, and while they say they should be planted in late May early June, I’m worried about them lacking sun in our weird unseasonal weather! It’s been completely overcast and 50s and raining constantly. I’m sharing the planting with some kids in the neighborhood, so I really don’t want them to fail… is it okay to plant them despite the abysmal conditions? They call for full sun, but I’m honestly not sure when we’ll be getting full sun again and I don’t want to plant them too late.

Thanks for the advice, everyone! My legacy blueberry plant is going strong, and my sunshine one isn’t far behind! I can’t wait to pick them, how will I know when they’re ready? I imagine they’ll need to darken in color a little bit and shed the little brown flower petal bits, right?

Hi all! I got a weeping cherry bonsai from my mom today and am really excited. I’ve always wanted to get into bonsai, but I’ve heard they are extremely difficult to care for so I’ve been a little hesitant. Well, now I’ve got one and I would very much like it to thrive. Any advice? It says it wants 8-12 hours of direct sunshine, but our yard is like a sun dial so I’ll be moving it to follow the sun throughout the day. And moist soil, should I spray the soil with spring water to saturate it? Or pour from a spout? Any advice would be helpful! I’ve only grown herbs and some fruit bushes so this is all new for me.
