Sounds like you have some experimenting to do

This is basically an inversion of the “three fats and an acid” concept, right? Rather than cutting fats with acid, you’re more bolstering the acid (tomato) with fat?

the 1999-2000 season gave us Freaks And Geeks, Mission Hill, and Clerks: The Animated Series, as well as Malcolm In The Middle

Sitcoms rebounded, obviously, the seeds of their reinvention sprouting from the premiere of the BBC’s The Office a year later

Last week I made an impulse purchase of a bag of gummy lifesavers. Then I ate them all on the 10 minute drive home to my house. The pandemic has obliterated my impulse control. 

I’ve heard that in other circles as grandparents asking if the grandchildren have finished their dinner, and upon getting a response confirming that they hadn’t, replying with “well, only one dessert then.” 

A child is much more likely to understand “you can have one little bag of granola,” than they are “you can have a quarter cup of granola,” and the numbers are simply harder to fudge.

My cousin relates a story of her mother giving her son (mom’s grandson) a cookie “because he looked like he wanted on” and she was dumbfounded that this was the same woman who raised her and never had sweets in the house.

Dying over this strict chocolate chip limit

I have a sudden craving for fruit snacks.

I’ve been going to the movies since the age of six and the theatrical experience has been one of the most basic, joyful things in my life. I had the great fortune of going to college during the height of the film guild era and, for years, went to the movies two to three, sometimes four, nights a week. I love the…

Optimism as a mitigation strategy is part of why we’re in this mess. So many groups, from political/governmental to educational to community, basically spent the past five months going “well, we’ll wait until we have to deal with it and hope it won’t be an issue”. They weren’t, on the whole, planning and trying to…

You clearly missed the story on the camp in Georgia. 360 kids age 6-19 at the camp. 260 positive tests from the camp so far, and 231 of those are from kids 17 or younger.

Schools will close again. There is no way around it. If you are in a state or region where they are starting in-person classes soon. Prepare for the inevitable.

I hate this. I’m angry that we are in this situation and livid at how badly we have screwed up in this country. And it’s not even my kids that will see the worst of this. 

I think we’ve covered a lot of practical ways readers can deal with this pandemic from the very beginning. Just in the past two weeks or so, I’ve written about tools parents can use to help make school decisions, how to figure out if their district has enough precautions in place, how to create a learning space at…

The same rule applies to “fix ups”... my wife and I re did our “upstairs bathroom” just before we sold the house (to help improve selling price)... afterwards we asked why didn’t we do it sooner so we could enjoy it...

Who hasn’t yelled ‘pizza’s here’ over your shoulder because you don’t need that judgement from the delivery person that the large is just for you?!

Lived with my in laws for most of the pandemic but recently closed on our own place. We love cooking and rarely eat out, and love trying different things. My in laws (who I love!) aren’t as adventurous and tend to stick to the same things. Wife and I are so happy to be back cooking for ourselves again. We are hitting…

I won’t knock it until I try it (and currently not blocked up)...but how exactly is this suppose to work considering you have sinus cavities all the way up into your forehead and into the cheekbones...under your skull. Given that you probably can’t apply pressure through the bone, what exactly is this supposed to…

there’s no real distinction between first, second, and third cousins
