Wait...I’m confused about the objection here....what’s the objection here?

This looks like pretty much the best chicken stock gets. The nice thing is, except for the chicken and the water....you can still make something entirely worthwhile with any combination (or none) of the other stuff. Simmer, skim the nasty crap off, continue simmering and so on. Less complex and nuance in the finished…

Months frozen. You can also bring it back to a rolling boil to kill anything and then re-cool and re-freeze. (Seriously, you’ll use it up or just toss it....but you could do that.)

Virginia country ham is salty goddamned brilliance.

Pull the chicken out after 45 minutes or an hour, let it cool just until you can handle it a bit, get the meat off of the bones, put the bones/skin/etc back into the stock and proceed as above. Nicely poached chicken and all that lovely stock.

How quickly did they disappear after you stopped patronizing them?

Yep, great, great dish. We do a super quick version with jarred tomatillo salsa, leftover chicken and chips plus whatever else we have that makes sense (sour cream, crema, avocado, cheese, chilis, cilantro) and poached or fried eggs. It’s really just warm the chicken in with the salsa and then simmer the chips until…

His whole thing about this is that yes, you make a significant change in how you eat and how you think about it. Instead of fast food burgers, stop and get a sandwich somewhere that isn’t loaded with processed lunch meat. Don’t eat while you’re at the concert... and so on.

We did the whole thing in the backyard at my Mom's house. We had about 30 people, a friend did the ceremony, our friends read things that they wrote, relatives played piano and sang....my mom made the wedding cake and I, a good friend and my mom made the food. We bought wine, beer and some booze. We bought a couple of…

It’s like Hydra....cut off one head and two more will rise.

You and I remember Budapest very differently.

He also just gets the upgraded room and collapses all of the reservations into one stay with all of this pricing in tact so he doesn’t have to switch rooms. (I know this because I did this once when I’d made a reservation a long time in advance and got a great rate but then needed to add a night last minute. I…

Check out the info and the linked IRS letter at the source piece. This is a really specific thing to which that rule doesn’t apply.

I really don't feel like the added context helped me appreciate it any differently.

This is where the students should get to transfer wherever they wish with immediate eligibility. (I mean, like 812 other things need to change, too; but when a Coach bolts for another job, kids should get a get out of contract free card.)

Argh. Dumb luck I suppose. Oh, I guess my other brother’s wedding was a matching tux deal, now that I think about it. But we ended up not liking his spouse much anyhow, so whatever :)

The thing to do (having done it) is get working on it really early (or just decide you’re going to buy one at some point so start looking as soon as you’re pretty are you’ve finished growing) either 1) hunt Neiman Marcus or Macy’s or Nordstrom sales. They all have robust websites, often with shipping offers and many…

I’ve been in several weddings and no one was concerned about matching up the boys. We’ve done just wear khaki pants and white shirt (beach wedding), wear a nice suit (Colorado wedding), hey everyone owns a tux, cool, lets all wear the tux we own (brother’s wedding). Forcing everyone to rent is uncalled for. (I’m not…

And here come various conservative politicians trying to make sure those women are forced to carry those pregnancies to term no matter what.
