There’s a midpoint between lamb and mutton called, in NZ at least, hogget (one year old sheep). I like it.

BTW, Cutlery and More has the 16x13 for the same price, the 14x11 for $100, and the aluminum non-stick version for $80. https://www.cutleryandmore.com/search?q=roasting+pan (I’d embed the link but kinja.)

If you have a pup dying of cancer, who can’t eat - or can’t hold anything down - try baby food. Our old corgi got some kind of stomach cancer. Chicken baby food (basically pureed chicken) worked OK for him, till the end. 

The black ones and the grey ones are both grey squirrels - there’s genetic color variation (like human hair color variation within the same family). We even see the occasional red grey squirrel (pretty much the same color as a red squirrel, but NOT a red squirrel). This morning we had a couple of black ones - and one…

Good on you both for foster care!

My BIL lives in the PNW (dark, gloomy winters) He gets SAD - but gets relief not from a therapy light, but by changing all his home lights to be more sunlight-like (so around 6500K). I don’t know the brand of bulb, but my own favorite is a company named ‘Hyperikon’ as they do a good job with color rendition (the…

Remember that you can scratch your knives with a magnetic knife block. To avoid this, when removing a knife, roll the knife on the bar so just the spine is against the bar, then pull away. As a bonus, it’s an easier pull if you do this.

Got a landline - or a (ahem!) elderly relative with a landline? Check out the Sentry Call Blocker (just web-search, kinja won’t let me enable formatting tools).

That’s actually not an unreasonable price for a good steel pan. Whether it’s steel or cast iron, you have to remove the layer put there to keep it from rusting and season it. Google ‘cast iron season flax oil’ for a how-to. I’ve learned to never buy needs-seasoning cookware in the winter as the process does not smell…

There are other antibacterials that work - that just happens to be the one that works best.

I live in Massachusetts. I have a friend who could not afford insurance. She ended up on MassHealth (no choice, in that having MH was cheaper for her than the tax penalty at the end of the year). She was diagnosed with breast cancer, and is alive today because of MH - otherwise I would have known someone who died…

Re the pneumonic version:

If the only thing holding you back from W10 is the UI, check out Start10. I set everyone in the office up with it when we transitioned to 10. Costs a massive $5.

If you are looking top boost memory, there’s some decent evidence that trans cranial electrical stimulation works. I’d guess that what’s going on with TCES is additional NREM3 (state in which your brain’s glial network gets more active cleaning out ‘junk’ into the CS fluid).

Agreed. But you got the positronic reference?

Saudia Arabia seems to have screwed the pooch as far as US relations go. Stuff like this turns the relationship into a partisan issue. Yes, the Republicans are supporting them no-questions-asked, but how long is that going to last?

I use Urnex ‘Coffee Equipment Cleaner’ on pretty much everything that touches liquid coffee (mix a small amount of the powder with hot water, let soak for a couple of hours). The moka pot I use is stainless, not aluminum - and I’m not sure it’d be good on the aluminum ones as it takes all the oils out, and, as I…

As do I. However, I might spend money on a box of Bachelor Chow - so long as it now has flavor.
