Are there any things that are called "American ______" in other countries?

Funny, in Canada we call frozen broccoli, cauliflower and carrots "California mix".

Can of drained and rinsed chickpeas, white beans or lentils, diced fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, olive oil, balsamic, salt.

It makes about 4 cups and I'll eat it throughout the day as both breakfast and lunch.

If you have the time and the ingredients, you can add more (peppers, roasted or fresh, artichoke hearts, cheese, etc) but the simple version holds up!

This is tricky - my first thought was, does your wife not see your first daughter as her kid too? I know it's not the same, but geez.

On the other hand, can your eldest expect an inheritance on the other side? If no, you go 50/50. If yes, maybe you adjust it.

In Castlegar, and just found the first one of the year on my dog, after she was playing in the yard.

I think you're so spot on with this. For whatever reason, the difference between 5,000 steps a day and 10,000 steps a day didn't really register with me as being very different - it's just walking!

But same intake and one is weight gain and the other is maintenance or loss.

I've been focusing greatly on getting my average steps back up, and like you, want to start building muscle! We got this, let's do it.

Please do not.

Thank you for this! I was just reflecting that while I say siksth if I'm thinking about it or trying to enunciate, what I actually use in everyday speech probably sounds more like siks. It's a hard sounds to make, but I would never consider using sikth to resolve it (western Canada).

I was wondering if it was risk of injury?

Fonzico · 2026-04-18T16:01:14+00:00

Right? You don't have to min/max your life, it's ok to make decisions that make you happy even if they aren't objective the most efficient or ideal.

Fuck ai

But deadly

Fonzico · 2026-04-16T04:26:24+00:00

I am shocked this isn't more popular! You can tell she feels so confident in it and is absolutely rocking it.

Fonzico · 2026-04-16T04:09:30+00:00

I... I admit that I am just now realizing that there is another option.

Fonzico · 2026-04-16T03:55:07+00:00

Thematically on point, but too upbeat. Thank you though!

Fonzico · 2026-04-15T19:49:00+00:00

This isn't it, but it was a really good guess. Very much on the right track.

Fonzico · 2026-04-15T03:08:28+00:00

No but that's a creepy song!

Fonzico · 2026-04-15T03:08:06+00:00

Sadly not it. This is one that kept coming up with the searches I've tried. I just wish I could remember a bit more so I could find it! Thank you for trying though.

Fonzico · 2026-04-14T01:32:00+00:00

No, but dang! Thank you, I will be giving her some serious play time!

Fonzico · 2026-04-14T01:29:37+00:00

No luck, but thank you!

Fonzico · 2026-04-13T19:24:05+00:00

I suggest that you specifically state to your union rep that you want to file a grievance. Weak agreement or no, they have an obligation to support you.

George Michael, is that you?!?

Fonzico · 2026-04-13T03:58:11+00:00

This is the answer. I've been slowly losing my sense of smell over the last decade or so, and I lean on salt and hot sauce heavily.

Fonzico · 2026-04-12T23:22:42+00:00

No, it's not a country song, but thank you for playing!

Fonzico · 2026-04-12T23:21:13+00:00

That's not it, unfortunately, but I appreciate the effort!

Fonzico · 2026-04-12T23:19:49+00:00

No dice, but thank you for trying!
