You can take a frozen, bone-in, skin-on chicken breast, season it and zap it. The frozen meat slows the cooking process long enough for the skin to heat up & get golden. When the skin gets golden, the breast meat is ready and not dry. I haven’t done this in years, but I think I cooked 1 breast for 12 minutes at 50%.…

10 years may actually be too soon, judging from the comments. I went to #’s 20, 45 and 50, and I’m about to try to coordinate a terrible Zoom meeting for #60. The in-between 5-year reunions have never been as successful at the 20-30-40 etc. Either I liked most of the people or I have a terrible memory, but I’m happy…

What with water, corn meal, salt and butter, you’re risking somewhere in the neighborhood of 38 cents. You’ll find the correct timing for your microwave and if it’s not quite ready, give it another 20 seconds or so. I had cheddar polenta at a restaurant before the plague, and it was so good I wanted to put my face…

She should be protecting her staff.  This sends the message to everyone in town. No games.  No special treatment. No nuthin’.

He passed the test so he can go to the supermarket unsupervised. That’s all.

Same technique as polenta.

If not, why not?

One might assume that the Church offered Thoughts and Prayers.

Did he start with “Cease and Desist” or go straight for the lawsuit. By this time, the use of his image is probably not doing much good anymore, so the seller can pay a fine and move along.  Maybe the seller can even declare bankruptcy and offer a non-apology apology.

Not for too much longer.

Got my first “Radar Range” in 1975 and been mostly using them for reheating, but a friend showed me that you can make polenta using s 4:1 water to polenta ratio and microwave it for about 5 or 6 minutes.  No seizing.  Creamy, ready for whatever additions you select. 

You may have discovered their business plan.  When your restaurant’s business is tanking, come up with some scheme, get a fistful of money, and then declare bankruptcy while crying the blues.

Can’t I just spread the Nduja right into the avocado half and eat it right there with a spoon. No mashing, no container to clean, no fooling with the bread, no sharing.

SO....... you shake a piece of cereal into your mouth and then wash it down with the milk? You’ll take too much milk for the cereal amount and towards the end you’ll be eating dry cereal. That’s not terrible but it should be intentional when you do it, not because a gimmick failed. You’ll miss out on making the…

He’s not going to be on the ballot! He missed the deadline to file in several states, and will miss several more. This manic phase where he’s running around saying strange things will eventually end and maybe Kanye will have files in two or three states.  In most states you need a bunch of signatures to get not he…

When you lose a little pet in a place as rural as Montecito, there is little opportunity for optimism.

Except that it’s a picture which includes Rubio.  Normally we would assume that he knows who he was talking to, but maybe to him so many people look alike...

“Patio seating” means that they got part of the street blocked off for their tables. That won’t last when things pick up and the weather cools off. Last time I was there, they still had those guys who had a pack of Luckies rolled in the sleeve of the T-shirts. “What’ll it be, Mac?” “I got customers waiting, Mac!”

Oklahoma, huh? Sounds about right.

Well, that’s a big disappointment and quite a surprise.
