One of my local chains, Kum & Go, has the gas station sushi. It’s not bad.

In lieu of vacuum sealer or plastic wrap I dunk the bag in a deep bowl of water. (or the sink if you must) Zip it up except for about 1/2" at one end and submerge the bag starting with the opposing corner so the water pressure forces all the air out the opening above the water line, then close the zip. You might have…

If the bacon is just for grease and you can sub olive oil... Would I go the full 1/4c if I skip the bacon and use animal fat I’ve got laying around or would that be overkill? (We keep a bowl of bacon grease on the stove and rendered beef fat bricks in the freezer.)

In early 90's I was in an 85 Camry hatchback with brake issues. I don’t recall exactly what the problem was, blown out rear drum cylinder or something, but I do recall that I shouldn’t have been driving it and I knew it. However, I was young and poor and I didn’t have the scratch to come up with another ride or fix…

No, not just you. I was thinking the Alaskan King is more recreational than utilitarian, the equivalent of corking a playground surface so someone doesn’t get hurt in high population energetic activities.

Given cost of living in CA I don’t think I’d characterize those numbers as “big”.

Yelp says Burger Barn isn’t there any more, 2675 W Line Rd.

Hey, I know that stretch of road from Mammoth. The best burger I’ve ever had in my life was in Bishop and the most stunning vistas I’ve ever laid eyes on while driving were coming down from the lakes and seeing the valley in front of me. It’s hard to comprehend the sheer scale of everything you can see out your…

No, some don’t. But the biggest problem is inadequate insulation in the walls in many, many homes and not a lack of indoor heat, especially in older homes. (I once lived in a house that was nothing but 1x planks with sheetrock hanging on the inside and cement siding on the outside of the studs, no insulation at all.)…

I’ve got to tune her out...

Visit the thrift stores regularly to get good cookware. Eventually some high end stainless steel stuff will show up. It’s usually filthy and covered with burned on food but since it is quality it will clean up good as new with a little work. Ended up with a whole ton of good All-Clad, Calphalon, and T-Fal pots and…

After being addressed as “Larry” by Montgomerie in a subsequent exchange on August 28, Keefe replies “See signal,” reminding Montgomerie to use the Starling pseudonym.

The business is on. I am trying to raise the balance for the Gummy Bear so he can submit all the needed Fizzy Cola Bottle Jelly Beans to the Creme Egg…

Ok, I’ve been given fondu pots, I’ve regifted, I’ve seen them given, I’ve seen them in homes on shelves, I’ve seen videos of them being used...I have never actually witnessed one being used IRL. Does this actually ever happen outside restaurants, ski chalets, movies, and movies about ski chalets?

I quite enjoyed this cheese book, both informative and entertaining. ISBN: 0894807625

Benny, that you? How’s the 21st century treating you? Groovy how that tricity thing you were working on turned out, huh?

Nah, prolly not. Nobody really needs one of those. Fart neutralizer on the other hand...

Death Star exhaust port?

Fart neutralizer?

It’s 2002. I am car shopping on the Internet (!) and find exactly what I am looking for at Bommarito South County in STL: inexpensive, reliable transportation. A 1999 Buick Century, stock #whatever for $7999. I call, get some dude I think may have been named Chris, maybe Kevin, and ask if the car is on the lot for…
