What is some of your Pet Peeve's

[Oaktree]

When I met my wife in 1972 she made dandelion wine in one on those 5 gallon glass bottles people put coins in. I helped pick lots of dandelions, it had oranges, lemons, sugar & yeast in it. After sitting for weeks it got pretty nasty looking and this big blob would float to the top, air would come out, sink down, repeat.
No one would drink it.

My wife read somewhere once that you could make tea from the blossoms. We tried it. Once. It was nasty.

Kale is a nutrition superstar due to the amounts
of vitamins A, B6, C, K, folate, fiber, carotenoids
and manganese it contains. One cup of raw kale
has just 20 calories. The Department of
Agriculture's MyPlate recommends any child
and adult who is over the age of 9 eat at least
1.5-2 cups of dark-green vegetables every
week.

Now if they could only make it taste like pizza.
I don't mind beet greens, dandelion greens (early in the season only) or swiss chard. Kale, not so much.

Today's peeve:
I go to a local gas station to fill truck and six containers of gasoline & diesel. Swipe card, press button and LCD screen lights up blaring "music" I hate (rap) and ads for crap. 10 minutes of loud rap & crap!
Whatever happened to peace & quiet and do people have to have noise all the time?

I totally agree, and do not go back to those stations if I can help it. If it weren't for the inevitable cameras, I'd silence the stupid media devices.
Score one for the EV crowd.

Often one of the buttons next to the screen will mute it. It had been used so often at one station I go to that it wore out. They must have gotten the hint because they no longer run ads.
