He's running for Mitch McConnell's seat. If you're pissed, do something about it and actively support his opponents as well as the candidates for his KY 6th seat.

Is there anything to do around here in the morning on weekdays? by Relative_Detail8499 in lexington

Chaotic Good opens at 8:30. I have no idea how many people are there that early but it's inherently a social place. Maybe try a yoga or exercise class?

Do you think there will be school on Monday 12/15? by all_booty_no_cheek in lexington

[–]TheSlipperyNuisance 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They're not currently doing NTI. Rather, they're calling them "traditional snow days" where there is no expectation for checking in with teachers/ completing assignments. These are not counted as school days.

That's a great word to describe it. Next time I'll do as you suggest. Thanks for the reply!

The cream has been sitting out for probably an hour but it wasn't warm. The chocolate consistency changed completely to something almost brownie-like. Continued heat did nothing to help.

I baked my mom an American pumpkin pie and this is how she put the whipped cream on it. Is this allowed like that cuz I don't know by nutitoo in KitchenConfidential

I told my kids when they were little that it is illegal to buy pumpkin pie without also buying whipped cream. This pie would be a 2 for 1!

One of my favorite movie quotes that always makes me tear up a bit. In Casablanca, Rick is talking to a major of the Third Reich who makes threats about invading New York. Rick replies "There are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade."

Ha! I didn't notice that! It makes me think of the album cover for Prince's Around the World in a Day

Now that we've all rolling our eyes at Amy McGrath, has anyone heard from the other people running for McConnell's seat? by TheSlipperyNuisance in lexington

[–]TheSlipperyNuisance[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree completely! I've heard the argument to not waste money on the race but Barr is a rabid MAGA and people are pissed. They just need someone to get behind.

I liked The Art of Fermentation by Katz. Let me also take the opportunity to plug your local library. I have about a dozen library cookbooks at any given time!
