(Also, since the quality of pine nuts has declined, I started using toasted walnuts, and I actually prefer them.)

I freeze it in ice cube trays. The tricks that work for me are: 1. Fill your trays, but cover each cube with a layer of olive oil on top to preserve freshness. Then cover firmly with saran wrap. 2. If you have a recipe that includes parm, don't add that in before freezing, wait til serving.

Oof, propranolol made me lose all emotion and I started getting cluster headaches from it. Surprisingly, getting on Mirena and taking a lot of magnesium and B2 seems to be helping the most out of anything.

Well, Denver employees have been working with less for a while - there have been over 600 positions eliminated through attrition, but all that work still has to get done somehow. So folks have been doing a job and a half for months, and now for the foreseeable future.

Our rescue here in Colorado is constantly plucking corgs & friends from Texas or New Mexico, so maybe expand the search there? It is a dire situation in those states I have heard. (I'd recommend our rescue but they cannot adopt out of state.)
