hah! your letter seems familiar. are you also allergic to crunchy & red?

my sister goes for a turkey sized oven bag full of brine, inside a cooler with ice to brine her turkey. less to worry about storing throughout the year and efficient brine contact

that’s a considerable quantity of pie plates!

yep, just use “add on” as a search term, on its own with other keywords. you can also search with terms like “add on items under __ dollars” if you only need a certain amount to get you to the threshold.

once upon a time, there was “Water Joe”, caffeinated bottled water. i miss it. short lived product, not sure if it stopped being around for legal reasons, safety, or lack of demand.
also fun to reconstitute orange juice concentrate for making screwdrivers
edit: huh, the internet says it still exists. i haven’t seen it…

i make an appointment at my local walgreens and the longest i’ve had to wait was about 10 minutes.

yup, grandparents, babies, and people with other complications or risks... like me. i appreciate herd immunity from vaccinations, even partial herd immunity. i can get a flu shot, but it helps a lot if i encounter fewer sick people.

true. cooking may help for some people/foods

if you can get this (i get it at costco) i suggest you try it in the brush on butter topping. i use it that way on biscuits and canned crescent rolls, as well as in tomato sauce, on pizza, popcorn, and corn on the cob.

private channels have to be added with a code on the roku website. not with browsing on the device. i used to curate a list of all roku channels and included many private channels, including adult channels.

ah, that particular channel actually doesn’t exist for real anymore. since a while back. the creator, nowhereman, killed it over a year ago. sorry

not everyone can afford to leave. especially when leaving might mean losing their job. but even the emergency shelters are in the path of the storm or post-storm floods. getting out of the way completely is expensive. hotels, gas money, don’t own your own transportation to leave town... there are a lot of factors to…

i say go back, talk to a manager/owner type person and mention that it happened and maybe the staff needs better training on how the chain of logic works for “people can’t get their food unless they paid, so maybe don’t chase them down in the parking lot after they eat”

yeah, that sequence of service events makes the employee who confronted the customer seem stupid, insane, or both.
i’m reminded me of a doctor’s office where the office manager interrupted my appointment to tell me that i didn’t pay my copay at a previous visit. due to being prior to online banking and smartphones, and…

...smoked? excuse me, i have to go hunt this down.

also, allergies. mylar balloons are less terrible than latex balloons in respect to allergies, but are still a waste of helium, resources, and a source of trash/pollution.
i have a friend who is severely, life threateningly allergic to latex. like can’t be in the same room with a latex balloon due to the particles.…

the helium shortage has health consequences for some people. during the height of the 2012 helium shortage, some of the MS patients i worked with had trouble getting MRIs. MRI magnets are cooled by helium. so yeah, even though i don’t work at that job anymore, helium balloons really piss me off ever since.

just scrolling through the last several days of skillet headlines and now i am trying to figure out if i can use my dehydrator and this method to make “sushi ginger salt”

i have applied buffalo wing sauce and bleu cheese crumbles to hot french fries before. it’s not my go-to snack but it’s quite satisfying sometimes.

pulverize them and sprinkle them on popcorn?
