I have many many friends IRL who are democrats while I am a moderate. Could you please clarify this, lol. Clarify how? I am a registered Republican.

"Passage-like or Passagey Trot A trot in which the phase of support of one diagonal pair of legs is prolonged, while there is a hesitation in the forward travel of the other diagonal pair of legs, giving a floating, hovering impression. Also called "hovering trot." https://www.nydress...

I would assume that this is about "judgement". . . or lack thereof.

And perhaps from the side, "defensiveness". . . or lack thereof.

My favorite squash soup recipe!

Koolkat

Looking for squash soup recipes. Anyone? This isn't an IP recipe, but it's pretty good, especially now with the squash being local and sweet. It started out being Martha Stewart's "acorn squash with kale soup", but it is pretty far removed from the original recipe at this point. Nice colo...

And yes, I always use bone in thighs in the IP or they cook too quickly. Emphasis on skin on, not bone in. . . can't get one without the other around here, at least not in the organic/free range lifestyle. But it's easy enough to remove the skin, just missed it in the recipe. . . delicious recipe, ...

The great run of horses do not seem to hover in their choice of evasions. This has got to be genetic. Do non-WBs hover as an evasion? My first horse, an Arab mare did this, slow in the hind leg. She was from park horse lines, so they weren't selecting for the "carrying" hind end so much, ...

That's not odd. . .

I wouldn't worry about him stepping too far under, he doesn't.

Koolkat

I don't think this has anything to do with conserving energy, because I think it actually takes a lot more energy to do this than to just trot forward. It's a classic passagey trot (not to be confused with passage). The horse is too slow in the hind leg. It does not take a lot more energy to do thi...

That's odd, I just interacted with the owner a couple of days ago about this horse (she lives close by). He is very appealing. If you're interested, I'll contact her, PM if that works better for you.

What with all the biopsying, I forgot to mention I asked the vet if my horse has a straight hind. He looked at the leg and said he could use more angle at the hip/stifle. I am not able to assess that. I was looking at where the point of hock was in relation to the butt. So my vet says he leg is str...

I cook most everything from scratch also, but love the IP. We don't use it everyday, maybe once/week at most, but I really like it. We use it as a rice cooker, slow cooker, pressure cooker, and are about to start using it for yogurt. I can't speak to the other brands (I started out looking at Zojiru...

Green goodness! Not the best foodie shot ever, but this Is delicious! We somehow arrived home with one less poblano and Anaheim than bought, so I added a couple of extra tomatillos.

You might pick out a "test spot" and try some over the counter hydrocortisone cream on it for a few days to see if it is immunologically related. Cortisone will shut it down if it is. Sweat/rubbing exacerbates those reactions, I deal with issues all the time where backpack/straps rub.

Glad you caught it early, and everything worked out okay! Have you considered offering her green, scummy water?
