We skipped our HAP post last week because there wasnt too much to report on, other than the potato starch experiment. We mostly did that, played in the snow, and tried to figure out why our bees died (more on that in a few days). But there were a few snippets of progress this week. Heres how we entertained ourselves:
We had collected our soil samples back in early February, when the ground was unfrozen and dry from a warm and sunny January. But we finally got the dirt fully dry and broke up all the chunks.
That meant it was ready to bag it up and send to Massachusetts for nutrient and heavy metal testing! Hopefully we only have to do the metal testing once, since its expensive.
Saturday was Pi Day. Were trying to cut down on our sugar consumption, but on a nerdy holiday that celebrates with dessert, we didnt stand a chance. The recipe was essentially this.
Ok, the real St. Patricks Day isnt until Tuesday, but Sunday was the start of Irish Food Week here at the Lab. Plus, we couldnt wait until Tuesday to cook up our corned beast because weve got pesky obligations that last all day, e.g., off-homestead work.
What made you happy this week? Let us know in the comments section below!
