This is brilliant.  It also makes it easier to stuff each one with a little cube of provolone.

THIS. Why fight the sun when you can grow a tiny little carbon scrubber that likes the sun and protects your home from solar radiation?

Or if you have the room, plant a big shady tree.

Mix Spam and potato fries 50/50, air fry, cover with gravy, cheese and onions...

Try taking medicines in the original bottle when you have 12+ medicines between the members of the family. No thank you.

I’d recommend a propane generator or, at least, a dual fuel one. Gasoline is likely to be more readily available if you’re willing to siphon it out of your gas tank, but it spoils and is dangerous to store in most conditions. Propane stays stable and usable longer than the can it’s in, which is a long time.

I wouldn’t worry too much about keeping insulin cool. Put it somewhere cool, wrapped in wet fabric and it’ll be fine for months. I cycled round Ghana for a month with no refrigeration where it was regularly 30°c in the daytime with my insulin and had no problems.

Why I Keep a Stash of Mini Candy Bars in My Freezer

If you (not you personally, Claire, but rather readers of this article) aren’t putting Reese’s Cups in your freezer overnight for a chilly AM snack, then I don’t know what you’re doing with your life.  You need to level the fuck up and start living your lives like adults.  

As I discovered firsthand last week, it is worthwhile to still wear a mask in public after vaccination because while I am very unlikely to contract the coronavirus and even less likely to give it to others, I CAN STILL GET A HEAD COLD.

Prescription medications can be extremely expensive

What is this “extra bacon” you speak of? There is _never_ any extra bacon. No matter how much you cook.

yeah i checked with my parents who are both vets and that’s why i put the notes about them being treats.

Niter Kibbeh?

MSG would go a long way to offset the saltiness I feel about clickthrough slideshows.  

Regarding rethinking croutons, a friend was telling me about a restaurant where they use pieces of fried chicken breading in their place. I have yet to experience it, but my favorite part of KFC has always been the remnants at the bottom of the bucket, so I can’t imagine it is bad. 

If you have a tent and have the room, pitch it in whatever room you plan on being in. It’ll help trap your own body heat in a much smaller area. You can also try to insulate it by throwing blankets over it.
I’d also imagine that doing a pillow fort could accomplish the same thing, the goal is to trap heat and not heat…

I prefer to use Canadian whisky, which has a similar flavor to Irish whiskey while being usually smoother and cheaper. Also, I just throw all the ingredients in the blender and haven’t had an issue with the cocoa separating too much.

Cream cheese.

I have been using Luxardo cherries in my Old Fashioned’s and Manhattans and adding a dollop of the liqueur to each cocktail. It gives a nice tart sweetness. I’m trying to think of what I could add to a simple syrup. I don’t have an extensive tea collection but ginger or vanilla seem likely candidates. Looking forward…
