We hosted a T&J party at our place with a few friends this year after obtaining one of those milk glass sets. Great time! May I suggest blended Scotch or Amaretto as other drink options. Delicious!

I’m a big fan of barrel-aged gin in a toddy.  The more robust flavoring pairs well with the honey and lemon.

Yeah, just tip a buck. I think the only time a bartender/server isn’t going to appreciate the tip is if its small. Even when getting alcoholic drinks we usually do $1-3 per drink depending on how complicated the drink is and how slammed a place might be.

We see a lot of flavored pretzel bags/tubs around here in Minnesota and like you say, the pretzels are paramount. I would though raise the concern that requiring peanuts makes things iffier for locations trying to avoid dealing with (the common) peanut allergy.

It’s a lot like this one:

Yeah, not all hybrids are non-viable, most simply won’t turn out “true to type” meaning it won’t be the same as what it came from. 

Oh yeah, this thing is really only good for steeping coffee cold (or I guess loose tea) and we NOT work hot. For comping I love my old inherited percolator. Nothing says campfire coffee like a bit of grounds at the end of the cup.

The French press was our go to (for cold brew) until we found a pitcher-like product with a built in coffee basket. Fill it, toss it in the fridge and let it do its thing over night and you have a few days worth of cold brew ready to go!

We’re meeting some friends for a beer in an honest to goodness taproom and watching a live musician. ALL INDOORS! The last time this happened it was It was March 14, 2020.

I’ve always appreciated when getting takeout the places that ask if you need condiments/plastic ware/napkins with your order.  9/10 times I don’t and would rather not take their limited supplies.

No one is asking the important question though: Why are (predominately) male lawmakers so interested in the reproductive and sexual organs of girls?

That’s a heavy thing to steal, yikes!

I felt like my statement was relevant to multiple posts. Why remake the wheel when copy-paste will do!

It looks a lot like a branded up modern fish house. They have wheels and can basically be treated like a pull-behind camper.

This is all such great advice! I work for a small granter and your advice around clear and concise language is soooo spot-on. I’ve seen otherwise perfectly planned projects not be funded because the reviewers couldn’t get past flowery language that didn’t tell them substantive. I also tell our applicants to remember…

I was always under the impression that they weren’t eaten due to having thicker bones which is a hassle for any sort of large scale operation and annoying for small scale. 

Hey, pretty sure that’s Iowa and not Minnesota with the conversation hearts. Which is good because I much prefer chocolate.

We’re all winners when it comes to bread. But Marnie is the winner when it comes to the draft.

This was the question I was coming to ask.  We only buy the imported stuff (Italian wife) so will this have an impact?
