Dactylopius coccus (True cochineal) but it can also be Porphyrophora polonica (Polish cochineal), Porphyrophora hamelii (Armenian cochineal), and some others. To produce Carmine, the cochineal bugs are boiled in an ammonia or sodium carbonate solution. Then, what’s left of it is deprived of all the insoluble matter. Then, what’s left of that is treated with alum.

Substances like Citric Acid, Borax, Gelatin, or Stannous Chloride can also be used in the process to somewhat alter the outcome. To create one kilogram of Carmine, on average 155 000 insects are needed. The end-result (Carmine) is typically high in Aluminum content. They are considering this a NATURAL FOOD DYE.

E-904 SHELLAC is a waste product of worms. It is a resin secreted by the female lac bug, on trees in the forests of India and Thailand. It is processed and sold as dry flakes and dissolved in alcohol to make liquid shellac, which is used as a brush-on colorant and food glaze.

I love it and brings out the child in us. Dave is 70 and still catching them like he's 12 :)

Have a mighty fine day :)

Thank you Mary and you have an amazing day too !!

I saw Trump every where we went yesterday and loved it. I bet the turnout is a fallout.

You do need to think about that too. I do Sol water.

If you get raw local honey it helps with local allergy causing stuff. I wonder if the garlic/honey/lemon for immune system would help?

Dave's bones have been breaking and trying to seek any holistic alternatives as we can.

Someone shared this and said they bought a cheap food processor to use for only eggshells. Then they put in gel cap.

It is a stunning sight to see. I would love to go up in the hot air balloon and look at it from the sky.

I agree it is a special and fun for family trip. Pack a lunch and spend the day taking tons of photos. I want to go back again and take my husband.

Not sure yet :)
The fog is starting to lift and the sky looks light blue.

Good morning sending you big hugs! It's that cool. I want to go back again to the tulip farm... maybe we can have a party with the kites and hot air balloons.

Place the onion peels in a glass container and add half a liter of boiled water, allowing it to cool. In a separate container, infuse five tablespoons of rice with a liter of room temperature water, filtering the resulting rice water. Combine the rice water with the onion peel solution, creating a nutrient-rich mixture for orchid fertilization.

Before application, dampen the orchid leaves and soil, allowing thirty minutes for root readiness indicated by a green hue. Apply the fertilizer by gently swabbing the leaves with a cotton pad soaked in the solution, enhancing leaf resilience against pests and providing vital vitamins. Alternatively, spray the solution under and over the leaves once or twice a month, combating fungi and parasites effectively. Pouring the solution into the vase soil further stimulates rapid growth, strengthening both leaves and flowers, ensuring a flourishing orchid display throughout the year.

WOW how amazing is that!!!
We think we know where they might be nesting :)
My lil sis is excited and bringing sunflower seeds and berries for the pretty birds. Have a continued awesome day Kathryn..... we love you and are truly blessed to have your on our side.

Honestly I would never have made it this far and feel this strong without people like you!!!

I want to go again.... shall we :)
It is a stunning sight to see.

Wonderful and yes it's being added. I put it off for a while trying to buy the pills but finances too tight so Tractor Supply Company is becoming my drugstore. Heck I just bought my shampoo and conditioner there too :)

So beautiful thank you !!!
I do feel like a healer and are here for a Divine Purpose 🙏

Sending you our love and prayers for your health and happiness in our journey together.

Amen Amen 🙏
