How to spend 90 minutes in St. George, Utah

Conoco station 


The cashier showed me how to crack the swarthy little nuts in my teeth. 
If you've never eaten pine nuts straight from the shell, they're softer and fleshier than what you buy pesto-ready from the supermarket, and have a tiny green sprout in the middle. There's a resinous flavor on the shell that I didn't absolutely love.
There was nothing about Nielsen's frozen custard that I didn't absolutely love.

Brother Brigham's stove

I also toured Brigham Young's summer home, which I highly recommend if you're ever in St. George. 


Now, with great joy, I am going home.

  1. I hope you don't get pine mouth!! Did you know that was even a thing you could get? My husband got it the week of Thanksgiving - we had swiss chard sauteed with pine nuts and garlic Sunday night, and then for about a week after everything he ate tasted bitter! It wasn't until he googled "bitter taste in mouth" that we learned of the existence of pine mouth. People tend to blame Chinese pine nuts, but I think they are also generally xenophobes.

  2. Bless you for your shout-out to Nielsen's. There's nothing quite like it.

  3. الحشرات الطائرة عليك بإضاءة الشموع ووضعها بالقرب من اللحم غير الناضج فهي تعمل على طرد الحشرات الطائرة ، وضع أوراق الريحان أو الكستناء حول الفاكهة تطرد الحشرات أيضاً ، و تعد رائحة اللافندر من الحلول المناسبة أيضاً للحشرات الطائرة . للتخلص من الحشرات في الحديقة قومي بنثر رماد الخشب على الأوراق لتجنب تكون العفن عليها الثوم والفلفل الحار كلاهما من الوسائل الفعالة ضد الحشرات التي تتواجد في الحدائق ، و يستخدم كل منها على النحو التالي : قومي بخلط ثلاث من فصوص الثوم في الخلاط الكهربائي ، و ذلك بعد ملئ نصفه بالماء ، ثم يصفى الماء مع الإضافة عند الحاجة ، ويمكن إضافة ملعقتين من المولاس إلى الخليط . أما الفلفل الحار فيحضر كما يلي : يخلط نصف كوب من الفلفل الحار مع كوبين ونصف الكوب من الماء، مع تصفيته بعد أن يمتزج تماماً ثم يخلط مسحوق صابوني سائل أو منظف مع هذه المياه التي سيسقى به الزرع لإبعاد الحشرات عنه .

  7. Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending to be hurt. Rugby players spend 80 minutes pretending not to be - rugby slate hanging signs.

  8. Many students often ask for help with the subject but do not know who to turn to. When you do a Google search for assignment help service uk numerous websites appear, it's easy to get confused. We decided to compile this list to ensure that students know exactly who to contact whenever they need help with their assignments.

  9. Our brain takes up a lot of energy (obviously) bumping information back and forth between nerve cells and depleting our sodium-potassium ratios. Science has proven that our brain can last for 90 minutes at optimal (high-frequency) levels before losing steam, after which it needs a roughly 20 minute break.
