You could make vinegar. I’ve been buying it for years, and, like most vinegars, it lasts forever. Quite expensive but delicious. Might make a nice homemade gift. I buy the product in the link.

We're too busy to take your money just now. Come back tomorrow. - 12 months ago

Yesterday I went to an Apple store in CT to check out the new iPad Pros. While doing so, I overheard a customer near me being told, after a lengthy sales pitch and without apology, that he would not be able to actually buy the object of his desire right then, even though they had it in stock, because they were "out of appointments for the day." What a business!

QuoteDP I believe there are some who escaped cages in the NYC area and have thrived and have become acclimated in that area. Here in CT we have a few colonies of wild parakeets, presumably started by escapees. They build enormous communal nests that sometimes interfere with power lines. Thus they are considered pests, at least by the utility people.

QuoteMicroman Same with Kohler, here I bought this Kohler faucet a couple of years ago for about $1000 installed: About two months later one of the ceramic H and C caps separated from the pronged handle and fell off. I couldn't figure out how to reattach it; there were no traces of glue. So I called Kohler. The rep told me the handle and cap shipped as one piece and, short of gluing, it
