When Life Gives You Zucchini...

...make vegan brownies!

(...to take to yoga tonight.)














Thanks to Stan for the fabulous organic squash!

This is the recipe that produced the brownies, if you want to give it a go.

Pog visited the New Hope Mills Store in Auburn for some whole wheat flour, cocoa powder and organic sugar. Free wi-fi in the cafe if you visit. (But get there before 4pm, that's when they close!)

PS: These aren't "healthy", but they are vegan! And I used half the oil called for in the recipe. Good for an occasional treat.

Like Angioplasty for Your Kitchen Pipes...

Speedracer's kitchen sink has been draining VERY SLOOOOWWWLY. And creating a mess in the second sink when running the disposal.

Attempts at remedying the situation with an auger/drain snake proved unsuccessful.

Then along came the Clog Buster. (It kicks auger a$$!)

Simply drag the garden hose through the garage into the kitchen, then attach it to the Clog Buster. Remove the P Trap under the kitchen sink, then stick the Clog Buster 6 inches into the main drain. Yell to Sully to turn on the garden hose and be surprised that no flooding seems to be occurring. After 5 minutes turn off the water and experience DIY SUCCESS.

As Sully eloquently stated, "it's like angioplasty for your pipes." I am totally surprised, yet elated that this worked. Highly recommended. It earns 5 plungers. Out of 5!

Now onward to fix the leaking bathroom sink....
