I also agree with this - recipes, food "hacks", technology for cooking, science behind cooking or foods, news articles about foods (like the pink slime debacle). I fully support this!

My father was ill-prepared to take care of two very very lost teenagers. My brother and I both wound up living in fosters homes because he literally did not know how to take care of someone other than himself. I mean, I could clean and cook basic things, but emotional and physical care that parents are supposed to…

The stoicism we were all supposed to have is ridiculous. My relatives who flew in for the funeral asked my father "what was wrong with me" because I cried the entire service. I'm glad it's okay to for me to have emotions now.

The worst was the next year when my godmother didn't show up to pick up her presents/drop them off, I asked my Dad if she was OK. He then told me she had died 2 months prior but hadn't told me because he was "worried about my reaction." I think my reaction was significantly worse when I found out I had missed her…

My worst Christmas eve..sigh. I was 11 years old. It started by going sledding with some family friends - my father had asked them to take me because my mom had been sick in the hospital and he wanted me to act like a kid instead of a mini-adult like I had been.

No! You can't hate on marsupial reproductive systems, they are absolutely the coolest. However, the whole 4-pronged echidna penis is...a little terrifying, I admit. Ask me anything you care to know about marsupials and their reproduction, happy to answer!

Bryn Mawr alums!

No. They infect/change genetically the patient's T-cells with a disabled form of the virus that kills B-cells that "cause" the leukemia.

I have been in charge of making mashed potatoes for 9 years now (something about being from Idaho makes me oh-so-good at cooking them) and I have a few tricks.

I've seen many recipes for how to obtain creamy mashed potatoes with a wide variety of fats/deliciousness like cream cheese, multiple sticks of butter, heavy cream, sour cream...What do you recommend to add to potatoes to get them creamy but not overtly rich?

I've seen many derivations on how to obtain creamy mashed potatoes - cream cheese, multiple sticks of butter, heavy cream, sour cream...and so forth. What do you recommend to add to get creamy but not overtly rich mashed potatoes?

NY Magazine has a fantastic, long interview with Sacks that discuss a little more of his background and current life.

Two.

I distinctly remember that series because when they played in Philly (and LOST! BOOYAH, WORLD SERIES 2008 CHAMPS), the entire crowd would chant "EVAAAAAAAAAAAA" whenever his name was called or he was batting. Ahhh...memories.

No one in my family, nor myself has had an abortion...yet I am decidedly pro-choice.

I rent a unit that was originally managed through a company, but now we pay directly to our landlady who lives out of state. It's good because we get a great deal on rent, she doesn't have money taken out for services that aren't being performed, etc.

What percentage of your clients do you estimate that cheat on their spouse/significant other?

They accept cash for "non-device" purchases, like software or cases that are usually also non-Apple in my experience. However, you cannot pay cash for a laptop - I tried to using cash I got as a birthday/grad gift and had to use said cash to buy a gift card which I then had to use to buy the computer. Weird huh.

Yes! I'm glad someone said this instead of commenting on editing/grammar.

Did you see these?
