Here we go again....I just made an appt. for Wednesday to see a great ortho doctor, who rebuild my left shoulder 4-5 years ago. Now the right shoulder is torn...That's my unofficial diagnosis anyways. I have dislocated this one twice, so possibly a torn labrum along with a tear someplace else, and of course, arthritis. I have been babying it and doing PT exercises for decades. I haven't even been able to sleep good lately...I got up 3 x last night to take oxy! And my hand is going numb....ugh!! Should make for an interesting winter!! I was glad to be able to get in so quick at least...Lets hope surgery can be as quick.

Was it old; cheap brand or had the package been mishandled?
It was flower, salt and eggs.

How long did you knead your dough? And when you rolled it through the pasta press, did you fold it back on itself a few times and run it through at the same width?

did you start wide and progressively turn the dial one click narrower with each pass of the dough?
I dunno maybe 10 minutes kneading and rolling at most. I was making the meatballs while she was making the pasta so I'm not 100% sure. She used this pasta machine and watched the videos. I think she used too much flower and not enough egg.

So far, I woke up and went through the mom routine.

Talked to the medi-health people about the pill dispensing safe and found out I can't afford it. ($1300+/- on Amazon, $2176.95 from Medi-health)

Looked at my notifications and seen a mod wanting to blame me for starting a troll trap thread. Then I checked out the actual trolls that started the thread and seen they're still here.

Checked my drying herb, quickly realized I won't be able to see shit because it's too dark.

Had no idea the lights I used threw as much heat as they did so I'm sitting in a cold porch.

All things considered, it's not the worst morning I could have before coffee.

Last 12 hours
  • found nanners at week 9 of flower
  • Harvested 2 plants
  • Had my thread hijacked and turned into a troll trap
  • Got blamed for others hijacking my thread and turning it into a troll trap and told to stop making troll threads
  • Turned the TV on and Canada's Drag Race was playing (Lemon should have won)
  • Doggo wants extra cuddles
Not a bad day so far. Time to finish this smoke and have some coffee.

That will probably be our last attempt at it.
Honestly, when it comes to spaghetti, dried is a better product than fresh anyway. Most Italians don’t eat fresh spaghetti, can’t get the same al dente chew from a piece of fresh pasta as you can from a piece of dried pasta.

fresh pasta is good for wider cuts like papperdelle, or filled pastas like ravioli

I don't think a troll trap thread is made on purpose however, if used properly, a troll trap thread can be used to ban a mass amount of trolls in one shot.

I had asked for verification on what I was seeing.

Then the trolls showed up and hijacked the thread.

It doesn't matter now, my plants are chopped and the bud is drying.

Reading this made me cringe. :shock:
Shoulder surgery ain't for the timid.

I've had rotator cuff repair on the right and get steroid injections in the left for "impingement". :o

My golf buddies make fun of my swing because the range of motion is about 2/3 normal.
And I still crush it -- just had to increase the tempo a bit. :cool:

What do you think caused the herming?
Light leaks? Environment? Traights of the strain?

We were trying to recreate spaghetti like we get at our favorite Italian joint Scaddabush. They use fresh pasta for everything. I prefer capellini over spaghetti but this machine doesn't cut that thin. The meatballs came pretty close to the restaurant. One of their cooks told me to add two tablespoon of worcestershire. Who knew rotten anchovies and onions make things taste so good.

A little pork in there is also pretty good.
