BARBER BOB TRENDING WITH OUR WORD & IMAGE PRESS CAMPAIGN
Barber Bob trending on local news in Minneapolis, with our targeted press campaign by Word & Image. Got several TV news stories, a radio story, and several online news stories. Too bad it celebrates the closing of a 120-year-old historic institution.

It looks kinda Secure with just a tiny lock (not really), but a big mail slot on the side allows an arm to reach in.
March Photoblogging Challenge Day 1 #mbmar
So today someone left a bunch of crappy opened artificial flavor gift tea boxes in our Little Free Library. Really??? Time for a reminder sign, that our library is for books. 📚
Finally moved the last domain out of SiteGround, after moving all websites out last year. They were a good cheap semi-managed WordPress host years ago. Now it’s clumsy, limited and costlier. Happily using affordable Cloudways with automated containers.
Finished reading: Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein 📚 But didn’t finish…as many have reviewed, the pulp dialog, sexist bent, and lack of characters had me put this down after trying to engage.
Daily photo of Little Free Library box to update my LibraryThing collection for status of books available or gone. Some 600 titles logged for 2022. Tiny HTML/CSS/JS site embeds current LibraryThing shelf plus a local Tweet feed. Longfellow.Life

Happy to announce I’ve launched my micro.blog as a subdomain on a new project (using the Custom Domain seting), before I even start the project website. Oh, and need to customize my micro.blog design.
Blog first!
Blah Blah Blah TLDR…later…

Baked buttermilk biscuits & pinwheels for Saturday breakfast. Frosted too on a frosty Minnesota morning.
This week I completed a new web hosting setup on Cloudways for my pro platform. Working nicely for PHP CMS projects & plain-jane HTML/CSS/JS so far. Fully featured, solid UI, and very flexible in many ways. Especially enjoy precision STAGING!

Cooking Tip
Made biscuits and gravy for brunch this morning. The biscuits always bake perfectly fluffy and flaky with these four things in any recipe:
-
Buttermilk
-
Frozen Butter
-
Fold don’t Knead
-
Cast Iron
I do use cast iron pots and pans for most cooking. Good buttermilk is a must for fluff. Just keep a stick of butter in the freezer to grate as called for in any recipe for flaky texture. And, biscuit dough just needs to be folded for dropping or roll-and-cut, as I do.
Visited a few Holiday Markets today. Finding beautiful, affordale Arts & Crafts meeting the makers and supporting the host organizations. Cards to send, art to hang or gift, household crafts to cherish, use, and pass to family and friends. 😷 Plus for our household, open-air atriums, taprooms, and church halls are a safe fun way to meet up with folks. 😊
As Twitter goes into death throes, and family photos & food porn continue on Facebook, it’s time to get back to microblogging — thinks Skarjune.
A year later, no progress on some replacement for connecting with real friends in Social Media beyond Facebook. Haven’t left FB, don’t post, just like family photos. Text messaging is primary mode for family, friends, even business.
