Drusas

Same if you make mac and cheese with powdered cheese. Make a roux, make the sauce, then mix the sauce into the noodles.

“Girls” and “men”. 😒 The word you were looking for is “women”.

Israel is obviously behind the attacks but has not taken responsibility for them yet. So no, they’re not admitting anything.

The really special part is that Jassy is saying that he wants it to go back to like it was “pre-pandemic”. Well, as a techie in Seattle, I can assure you that his new policy is much stricter than it was pre-pandemic. Being able to work from home was pretty lax back in the day, and they weren’t tracking your badge-ins.

Very disingenuous. It’s all about the shareholders, real estate investment, and pressure from city and business interests to get wallets back downtown at lunch time.

You’re mostly there.

Fry up the bulk sausage, making sure you chop it up nicely. Don’t skimp on the sausage. Make a roux with the grease and a bit of flour and milk. Add flour and milk gradually to your desired consistency (I like it fairly thick), but don’t go overboard on the milk or it will become bland and milky. Add fresh cracked black pepper and, importantly, no other seasonings or toppings.

That last part is where every place seems to go wrong these days. Almost everywhere overdoes it by trying to make it something fancy, so they add extra seasonings and things like bacon and green onions and salt. I love bacon and green onions and salt, but they don’t go into gravy. And some places forget the pepper. You need pepper. And of course, most places are very skimpy on the actual sausage, even though it’s cheap.

Anyway, once done, apply liberally to your preferred biscuits. Quick, easy, delicious.

Not poison. Venom.

I’d like it if they would enforce noise ordinances at all.

Yakisoba with shrimp and napa cabbage.

Pho is also a great breakfast food.

When I’m feeling like punishing my digestive system, biscuits and gravy (homemade only–nobody seems to know how to make it properly anymore).

Private investigations are not considered stalking.

If you do, you should take a leisurely kayak or canoe trip down one of the little rivers in the Pine Barrens. Very relaxing and somewhat unique in that the water has a red tint from the cedar trees (what we call “cedar water”).

I’ve never heard it used as an insult, more as a very mild expletive.

So… She’s trying to make things worse for her daughter.

Wives’

Oh okay, thanks. I have heard of that, but it wasn’t common enough where I grew up for me to have ever heard it abbreviated.

What is FFA?

Unfortunately, even for those who prefer night shift, it has negative health impacts, increasing one’s risk of heart disease and diabetes.

Oh, that’s such a shame. Neato made some really good vacs and cost somewhat less than iRobot.

I’m interested in trying one of those combination mop vacuums as well. Whenever one of mine dies, I’ll probably try that. They’re both going strong for now, however.

What I would not recommend is going for a cheap brand. We got one (before getting the Roomba) as a housewarming gift and it did not work well and it broke after a few months. So we ponied up and bought a Roomba to replace it.

I have not the newest but relatively new models from iRobot (Roomba) and Neato. The Roomba has more features, but I prefer the shape of the Neato for getting up against walls and corners. I would recommend either.

They’re a lot better now. They were pretty garbage early on.

It’s kind of shocking how the rest of the world seems to be just going with the flow of the guy who very clearly stole the election and is now using authoritarian powers to suppress dissent.

Can’t we all at least not acknowledge Maduro as president? Have no diplomatic or economic ties with Venezuela until they respect the results of elections?
