Tree broken by a storm

The Daily Show is back! And our heat wave is supposed to break today! We had massive storm come through and expect another one today. My neighbor lost one of their trees!

This post is for casual conversation if you don’t feel like making a post of your own.

Wind is extremely scary.

We went to get a new dehydrator so we went to check at home depot and they said they didn't have them in store, then asked "Is it an emergency" and I froze because how do I say "There is no such thing as a food dehydrator emergency" without being an ass so I just said "nooooo" drawn out.

We forgot to buy the metal tape I need to keep repairing the dryer with. Oops. It'll still run, it'll just take more trips through the dryer to get well, dry.

As far as I know, no injuries. That's just one big tree down in my neighborhood.

You can still use an oven on very low! And also also, as my brain keeps pointing out, you'd still be waiting like 12 hours for them to dehydrate! So it's...a very long emergency???

I think she was so use to asking the question it just arrived!

I dehydrated my milk and I'm left with brownish granules that refuse to dissolve even in boiling water. Hm.
