We don't but full chickens just boneless chicken breast. We cut the breast into strips before boiling then use what KitchenAid calls Coated Flat Beater (see link) to shred on 2 or 3 I think.

A few years ago a friend of mine decided he wanted to show us his newly purchased engagement ring that he was planning on giving to his girlfriend. He opens the box, places it on the table, and the 3 mid-20s men in front of him stood in silence. That silence was broken when I blurted out, "So Laura likes ugly…

English speaking people have been using 'they' as a gender neutral pronoun since at least Chaucer. The overboard prescriptive whining didn't come until WAY later during the 19th century mania to create hard and fast grammatical rules.

"Zie" is a singular gender-neutral I've seen used now and then. Zie goes to the store, and gets a bag of chips; that bag of chips is hirs. It's not hugely popular, but I like it.

Thus sayeth the prophecy. Are you sayething the prophecy didn't sayeth that?

I'd like to see as a topic people who loved their fiance but hated the ring and how they handled it. I never liked mine and intimated it to an older coworker who admitted she never liked hers either. She'd been married and wearing it for decades and that always struck me.

I came back from the doctor and said I probably couldn't get pregnant without a lot of help - help I've decided I didn't want. He hugged me, said it was OK, and asked me to marry him. Right there, in the hallway, with a litter box not 2 feet away. I said no.

I use my Borner (a particular mandoline slicer brand) slicer often and keep a plastic sandwich baggie of chopped onions in the fridge at all times.

My mother has narcissistic personality disorder. She abused me and my brother terribly, for decades. She's horrible and yet everyone else thinks she's great because she's awesome at faking empathy. Reading the laundry list of narcissistic personality disorder finally explained the cognitive dissonance and stress that…

Also, while we're on the topic, can we talk about this vaunted "high road" and what it is that makes it so fucking special and desirable? Because I've stayed quiet A LOT about things that happened to me, both as and after they happened, and I've never gotten single scrap of inner peace or enlightenment or enhanced…

Yes yes yes...you so hit the nail on the head for me, ''...your voice is stomped out. You are silenced repeatedly...' so true...and then you become the 'bad daughter' the 'troubled one' when you find your voice and USE it... !!!

You don't have the right to tell abuse survivors how they should act or feel towards their abusers.

SO much easier to be like that when they're dead though.

General O'Neill did this when he took over the SGC. He ended up staying and, among other things, defused a nuclear standoff with the Russians, launched an (albeit sabotaged) mission to Atlantis, and defended the SGC from a Replicator assault.

I cook 85% of my meals over a 4 hour period on Sundays in one go. Breakfasts (oatmeal, homemade larabars, homemade granola); lunches (this week is chicken and dumplings) and dinners (black bean and sausage casserole). That way, everything is "leftovers" and all the dishes - except the ones I use daily - are done once…

My issue comes from a combination of issues that happened to coalesce, so I don't think there is a name for needing protein so much as that's what my nutritionist recommended for my specific case. But yes...needing extra protein compared to most is absolutely a thing, and often occurs in conjunction with some form of…

It isn't easy and takes practice and effort. The first two are TV and Internet, as you said.

To be honest, it sounds like your situation might be a bit different than mine. I generally avoid using credit cards if I can because it's just a habit I don't want to get into at this time. In your case, if you're spending most of your money via credit cards, then either everything in Simple would show up as "Credit…
