Anomunous...

Yeah, John XXIII was “my” pope.. I was raised in the Holy Roman and Apostolic Church and actually participated in our church’s “folk masses”. It was a good time to be a young Catholic; the church at that time was seen as a “liberal” organization. That’s all gone now, of course. I left the church shortly after high…

this was my dad’s favorite; butter, garlic powder and grated parmesan. I’m a basic butter-and-salt guy but I remember him really liking this mix.

TBH, I never heard of Barstool (I thought the headline was about, you know... actual barstools, like, the furniture. But I don’t get out much) But thanks for the heads-up Drew. I may have heard of this Portnoy character because the name has its own history, but I will now actively avoid them going forward.

I spread mine out over the top rack of the dishwasher. Works pretty well.

Amidst all the other shenanigans going on I sense another, longer game. Georgia governor is term-limited. The main job of a Lt. Governor is to prime themselves for the big chair after the boss has to step away. I think they were just ensuring Duncan would be their guy in 8 years.

I like your statement but I would stay away from using “just” as it can be interpreted as minimizing what they are feeling.

yeah.. Collective Nouns could be a whole ‘nuther article..

I use the whisk attachment on the Kitchenaid...

How ‘bout Andy Serkis instead of Hugo Weaving?

“...called him a moron...”

leftover crisp? seriously?

“USDA serving of French fries is just three ounces, or 12-15 individual fries.”

So I’ve heard. But old habits are hard to break. I find cooking to be therapeutic and I rather enjoy tending the pan, watching the bacon cook, being more involved in the process. I suppose if I were cooking for a crowd I would try the oven method but I’m ok using the skillet most of the time.

I’ll do peanut butter and sliced banana on French Toast, topped with a good maple syrup. 

Any benefit to starting with a cold pan only applies to the first batch and I usually have several batches. I cut my bacon slices in half to make them more manageable and do the flip and shuffle but somewhat more frequently than suggested here. Yes, it is time consuming but we’re talkin’ bacon here. It’s worth the…

I’m good with “Thursday”...

I am sorry. That is sad. Not to throw fuel on the fire but your husband sounds like an ass. 

I will be So. Glad. when this whole Twit-thing phase passes.

The comment about the headache concerns me. I am a devout ingredient-list-reader (Mrs. Z has a number of food sensitivities/allergies). Sounds to me like this mix either has a near-fatal level of sodium or enough MSG to trigger a reaction in you...(just looked it up..no MSG listed and one biscuit has 380 mg sodium)
