I’ve never been offended my the smell of garlic and onions in my house. I love the smell. I remember my momma use to spray the hose with some kind of rose smelling spray after she made garlic. It was crazy smelling to me. I hate perfume cover up sprays.

My Wife has a jar of honey with garlic in it. They say its really good for all kinds of ****. What's cool is after it sets for a while the honey gets thin and tastes like garlic. I know it helped me with a sore throat and sinuses. It is actually fermented Honey and garlic.
Here is a link.

In my house where I grew up if we had garlic and oil we had pasta ali oio
We grew it couple of years ago with moderate success (170 cloves planted)
End of last year we bought 50 heads of garlic to plant in the fall .
We had good intentions but who knows what happened .
I have been happily working my way thru them .
May make enough soup using double the garlic, and get a run of 8 qts, then can said soup.
If we dont use it it will go bad.

Aged garlic gets sweeter at least here. Maybe it has to do with soil composition. Your like garlic even a little bit - you are going to love that stuff.

I have a love affair with all the Alliums and one of my favorite ways to prepare garlic is to pickle them in a solution of water, balsamic vinegar, and sugar. I pick up the peeled garlic in bulk from the local Asian supermarket and usually put up a couple of half gallons at a time.

Flavorful without any bite and minimal gas.

IGood morning GW and friends View attachment 320103
finally drying up around here enough so that a full bathtub bath isn’t required for my Maryjane every time she comes in from the backyard. Wow those fuzzy feet are like black mops when she’s standing at the door after doing the puppy chase game for a while with her friend Oreo on my neighbors fence line.
(I could use the cleaning ladies myself this morning..)
we are also offloading a lot of stuff useful to others but retired from our life anymore to make more floor space for fun projects.

hope everyone has a nice day planned. My plan is to wash glass doors windows and mirrors today. ✌️

I had a cute blonde headed, blue eyed cleaning lady (gay) as a bachelor and Grayfox said that she could do a better job and we didn't need Poppy when we moved in together and subsequently got married.

In a short time however, she began to resent my not participating more in housekeeping, though I did pick/clean up after myself, I was not sharing the housekeeping, sooo I reminded her that it was she who didn't want Poppy cleaning our house and suggested that she hire a maid service that she was comfortable with, because I choose to spend my time doing something else.

That was about 36 years ago and we still have the same pair of cleaning ladies clean things every other week.

I just saw the Portland snow statistics and so far we've gotten 0.2 inches this winter, but they are predicting some next week.

If they ever locked you and me in the same house with a fully stocked kitchen, I've got a feeling the fire department would have to chainsaw a hole in a non-loadbearing wall just to get us out after a few months.
