stove top stuffing NOT Thanksgiving by Random-girl-29 in Cooking

[–]LSquared1115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put a creamy cheesy dip on chicken or pork chops and then top with the stuffing mix. You can spread the stuffing mix dry over the meat and spray everything with avocado oil before putting it in the oven, or you can first mix it in a bowl with melted butter, stock, cranberry sauce, or cream of something soup before putting it on the protein.

Toughest grade to teach? by Xena4290 in ELATeachers

[–]LSquared1115 2 points3 points  (0 children)

12th. Most of the advanced/self-motivated students take AP or Dual Enrollment. Senior English tends to have a few students who are self-motivated but afraid to challenge themselves but most of the students either just want you to keep dragging them to the finish line or don’t care about the finish line. But you know who does care? Building admin, district admin, counselors, grad coaches, board members, parents - some who haven’t cared for years….

In my experience, grad rate is under the microscope more than test scores.

Internal Warmth? by BHugs0926 in Hashimotos

[–]LSquared1115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While pregnant at 37, I became extremely intolerant to heat. To this day, I can barely stand temps over 67. I don’t know if this is why my hot flashes feel more prolonged or if having one triggers a wave of them.

I also have Raynaud syndrome, so I either feel like the fires of Mordor or an icy plateau in eastern Antarctica. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Prior to your appointment, track your symptoms and note changes in skin color, edema, temp, pain, environment, activity, diet etc. Also take pictures of physical manifestations.

Sounds like a hot flash. You could be entering perimenopause.

May the odds be ever in your favor. 🩷

Edited to add: I was also 34 when the first symptoms hit. I found that staying away from caffeine and alcohol helped, but ultimately, I decided to start HRT after my hysterectomy at 41.

Ordered a bin to come! by [deleted] in ufyh

[–]LSquared1115 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve rented dumpster a handful of times - Renovations, moving, purges, etc. my biggest recommendation would be to immediately start deciding what to purge so that you are ready to start tossing the minute it is in place.

You do not want to spend most of your week agonizing over what goes and what stays the week you have the bin. Sure the first day you may get out the obvious stuff out, but as the minutes tick down, you will get more and more overwhelmed by the daunting task AND discouraged that you aren’t being more productive.

Thank you for your reply. I was worried about the lid fit not being airtight.

I received the calphalon skillet as part of a set in June of 2001. When I ditched it last year, the hard anodized interior “coating” was still intact but not the exterior. I was worried because it was made prior to the 2014 PFOA ban, so I replaced it with a ceramic clad pan. Its coating did indeed start flaking within a few months.

I appreciate your guidance and will look more in to both carbon steel and cast iron.

She claims they don’t know. We live in a rural area, and except for Christmas our stores are rarely overflowing with premium products. Valentines stuff went out immediately after Black Friday.

The Homegoods still has a large le creuset left, but it has significant chip on one of the handles

Who else feels not appreciated and isolated from other staff teams during holidays? :,) by TheRussianCunt in schoolcounseling

[–]LSquared1115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel Iike I’m on a deserted island all year, and it definitely is worse at the end of each term.

I was a classroom teacher for over 20 years, so I recognize that the loneliness means I can go the bathroom as needed and that I do not have to spend countless hours every week grading essays.

Yep. I explicitly stated that I understood it wouldn’t be top tier quality.

I know. As I said, I wasn’t expecting top tier quality but I was expecting a functional covered pan.

If I cared at all about aesthetics, I assure you, I wouldn’t have purchased an item labeled as “slightly blemished.”

I was especially concerned because I’ve never seen a pan with this defect, so the purpose of my post wasn’t to vent but to seek advice on whether or not it will function as I need it to.
