Here's my guess Tracy, and despite the gum acacia, I'm fairly certain these are the ones Salem uses instead of the coffee and tea flavorings. I'll have to ask her.

Organic Watermelon Flavor Concentrate Kosher, vegan, gluten-free, alcohol free,certified organic,Bakery flavor,dairy flavor,ice cream flavor

Jay, I've decided to view sweating as a cleansing that is good for you! I was the winner of the wet t shirt contest after doing the hedges today...it was actually a wife beater and not a t shirt :shock:

Have to be honest here, with all of the threat of thunderstorms we've been under, except for that freaky hail storm the other week, we've managed to dodge the rains.......until last night! Man it poured and poured through the night and into this am. More of the same off and on through tomorrow.

I have to go let out some of the pool water, it's full again!

Do any of you know if fat head minnows are bullies to goldfish? LOL On the advice of my Dad, who got it from the news, I added 12 fat head minnows to the pond in hopes of not having many mosquitos. (they eat the larvae) I have 2 goldfish and 2 fantail goldfish that are hiding between my marginal plant pots and the pond liner (the 2 koi are faster and not having a problem). Upon closer inspection I noticed that their tails are a bit tattered, which infuriates me!!!! Last night I went out and found one floating. Now I"m p*ssed!!!! I am shop vac'ing that sucker down and getting rid of those damn demon fish from hell. All these years of having this pond and never had this happen. It has to be those demon spawned fish! Thanks for letting me vent.:mad:
Anyone wanna go fishin'? :)

Yet another reminder of my dislike of plumbing :)

Replacing the valve/faucets for the tub/shower. The very first step is adding some flexible faucet hoses, with temporary caps, for the incoming supply lines. One line (hot) mounted pretty cleanly after I cut the incoming 3/8" supply tube, the other (cold), I spent several hours on, cutting it back a little at a time, fine sanding, trying three different compression nuts, silicone to facilitate getting the compression part on -- the darn tubing is just slightly too large to fit, else slightly out of round. Finally I pulled another panel, found where the 3/8" is tied to 1/2". It looks like I can just get into that space with my small tube cutter, switch to 1/2" sharkbite 90, a PEX run, then a sharkbite 90 with 1/2" MIPS on one leg, 30" faucet connection hose coming off it (the 1/2 female compression side of the faucet hose should go okay with the 1/2" MIPS on the sharkbite).

All I want is something that doesn't leak, can be maintained.

According to yahoo they're okay together Tracy. Can I keep fathead minnows with goldfish? - Yahoo! Answers Better make sure they aren't another species.

Here's something you should read. Fathead Minnows - Fish & Koi Talk - Garden Pond Forums

Ack!!!! 5c, you're the best!!! OMG they are so outta here! I thought maybe they weren't getting enough to eat and had a bit of sympathy for them but after reading that, no way. I have some work to do but will report back happily when I have a minnowless pond once again.
