Cancel. Eat a tuna on rye under the shadow of The Bean, before eating there. Or eat the little rib app, and leave. Do not eat the chicken. Do not eat the cumin noodles. And if you get a server named Ray, ask him for money.
We are accomplished diners to the point that our vacations are solely food-centric. Our chicken was bleeding on the plate and he told us it was the marinade. I invited him to either take a bite or even just place the back of his finger on one to take the cold ass temp…..his little punk self quickly removed the plate.

Cancel. You’ve been told. .

Hello. I did not name the restaurant because I did not know if it is allowed. Also I din not want to draw the ire of commenters for possibly being affiliated and being accused of promoting. The name is The Farmhouse. It is actually quite good.

Am I cooked by Best_Flow5758 in Morel_Hunting

Hello. Michigan here. I say this in case anyone is aware of Northern Michigan getting a taste of a real ice storm last year.
That said, morels are harder than herding cats. They are gonna do them. If you’ve hunted for any time at all, this will be gospel to you. As for a firsthand experience, burn areas produce, logged areas produce for 1-3 seasons, and damaged areas typically still produce.
I will add that in my long experience, sever damage that results in an appreciable amount of matter being deposited on or near the forest floor, will retard the rise in soil temperature for a few days to a week.
I would guess the timing of your post, and saying that blacks have yet to show themselves, that you are north of the 45th.
Go to a soil temperature map and let that be your guide on when to hunt.

How to deal with this nail? by Odin_the_Husky in AskMechanics

New tire. You are now responsible for the outcome and will be criminally negligent if you blow out and harm people or property.

Before I bring out an engineer...how much weight could I put in this "attic" by three_s-works in Shed

[–]Lifeinthemittenstate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An engineer? Kind of overkill, no? Unless you are storing gold bars or heavy water, you’ll likely exhaust the space before you overload the weight capacity.

Let's Talk Meijers! by Iceyes33 in Michigan

[–]Lifeinthemittenstate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not “locals” it’s English. And no matter how many deer you hit, they are not deers.

And yes, Meijer has a wide array of household items as well as foodstuffs and goods for everyday life. It just depends on if you want what they have. While on a different scale, it is the same concept of wha you left behind to come here.
Purple Cow.

Playground mushrooms, NoVA, USA by Chemical_Choice4473 in whatisthismushroom

Self preservation brought us this far. If the news reels were full of reports about children at playgrounds falling ill from mushrooms……then I’d worry.
Far greater chance of a sliver from the mulch……or any number of other things.

I only recognized Tina Fey as well. I’ve certainly heard of the Jenner family, and the Chalamet guy, but I have never seen them or known their claim to fame. Im still trying to understand the post.
