inVent: tried to stretch a $20 roast into 5 meals and ended up eating bean soup for 3 days straight
@sagen36 did you try seasoning that broth or just drink it sad and salty?

inStop blaming your camera for blur when it's your shutter speed
The ISO 800 thing is exactly what I had to do @cora_martinez, but I'm curious how much noise you're okay with. I pushed mine to 1600 once for a party shot and the grains looked like sand on a beach. Did you try any noise reduction apps or do you just live with it?

inHad an old shoer tell me I was wasting time with aluminum shoes
Yeah it's funny how that translates to everything. I feel like we all go through that phase where we think newer and fancier is automatically better, then reality smacks you in the face. Kinda like how I used to buy those lightweight plastic tools until they snapped on me, now I just grab the old metal ones and call it a day.

inWarning: hit 50 eggs from one hen in 30 days and it caught me off guard
Not sure if that oyster shell is actually the reason. 50 eggs in 30 days is beyond what any supplement alone can do, that's more like a genetic fluke or she's double laying somehow. Even the best layer breeds top out around 300 eggs a year, which is 25 a month. You're getting double that from a bird that's supposed to lay 4-5 a week. Something else has to be going on with that hen's cycles or your counting method, maybe a hidden nest somewhere you're not finding.

inShoutout to the $15 headlamp I bought before exploring the old Fox Run Mall in New Hampshire
Yeah @wells.amy totally changed my mind on cheap gear after that story.
