Really loving this piece this morning. Even though I’m not a ‘foodie’ (or even a cook) your writing has done a lot to keep me calm during these scary times. Pasta and tomatoes... pretty much my diet my entire life.

This is a bold move on Georgia’s part. Normally, Mississippi has the Shittiest State title all locked up with a combination of low education rates, low wages, high poverty, high obesity, high teen pregnancies, high STD rates, high diabetes rate, high nonpayment of taxes, and other indices.

Georgia deserves kudos, not mockery, for bravely volunteering to be the Control Group!

What about libraries? Oh right...georgia

You might want to do some research into when Boomers got old enough to buy refrigerators versus when they became common in American households.  Or don’t.  Let’s not pass up an opportunity to shit on Boomers.

Carson is a textbook idiot savant. An absolute fucking moron in most areas, but apparently good at visualizing 3-D anatomy, memorizing, and having steady hands. But Jesus Christ is he in imbecile otherwise, his run for President made that obvious to everyone.

Dre and J.

But you can have fun trying!

Dr Oz is at least a medical doctor. Not that you should take advice on infectious diseases from cardiothoracic surgeons if you can help it, as most cardiothoracic surgeons will quickly tell you.

After which the WWE promptly fired dozens of it’s employees, both wrestlers and people behind the scenes.

His passing coincides with the Republican governor of Florida being bribed to keep the WWE open as an ‘essential business’. DeSantis pretty much murdered Finkel.

I used to think I hated mayo. But it turns out its because my parents are sadists and raised us on miracle whip.

I was taught to start mine in a cold oven to assist with the fat rendering.

I don’t know where I saw/read this but I start with a cold oven and cook at around 365 max. Sure it’s not fast but I’d rather wait a little than burn it.
