I got way more red currants this year than I expected.

3 kg just from that one high trunk currant (compared to 1.5 kg last year) and 1 kg from a volunteer bush I never even bothered to harvest from in the past.

I'll make jam, syrup and maybe some ice cream, but if any of you have any recipe you like, please feel welcomed to share and help me out.

A chimera occurs when genetically distinct tissues co-exist within the same plant. The mutant plants exhibit different sections of color on a flower.

Hello Shila, I hope you are well :)

You’ve mentioned the ‘trophy wife’ manicure before, and I was wondering if you have any particular polish recommendations to achieve that look?

Thank you!

shilascribbles-deactivated20230:

Of course! My mother still uses an old bottle of Chanel’s now-discontinued ‘Jade Rose’ to achieve her desired look, but any nude polish will work! To my mind, the manicure is defined by its short length, natural rounded shape, and its perfectly plain nude polish. It all depends on your own skintone and preferences as to the shade and finish of your perfect nude, but here are a few recommendations:
