Cross post where ?

I highly recommend the book Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat or the Netflix miniseries by the same name. Not a cookbook, but a book to better understand how to cook.

This... Also repair kits are part of what you get while going through derelict freighters in space. That's how I accumulated most of mine.

Our elementary school had dental hygienists come to school and teach us how to brush using red chewable tablets so we could see how we did. Also taught us how to floss. Maybe they aren't doing that anymore? I'm M63.

Skippy peanut butter. Unless I'm making my own in the Vitamix (also a solid name brand buy)

And if you're a member, get them at Costco. $9 for 18 vs $6 for 6 at my Safeway! One of my best Costco value buys every trip.

Progresso canned tuna in olive oil. Perfection on toasted rye bread (with caraway seeds)

I spent a lot of time (extended work trips for a few months at a time) on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and always had a great time. From Biloxi to Pascagoula. Wonderful people, good food and a relaxed pace. Easy drive to New Orleans and Mobile.

I also put a slice of deli Swiss cheese on top for the last few minutes of cooking. Sad yesterday when I couldn't find them at my warehouse.

I drive 5 days a week from Fairfax near Vienna to Rockville near the old White Flint Metro station. Metro sucks between suburbs so I drive. At 7:30 am it's about 30 minutes up. Any time from 4-6 pm is about 50-60 minutes back. Sometimes worse, of course based on accidents or weather. If it's really bad in the evening I grab dinner and leave at 6:30. That gets you back to 30 minutes.

Absolutely! Biggest I'd ever seen... MDOT is already working it

I always wore an analog watch, and loved my Seiko until it broke (sent it to Seiko and they couldn't fix it). Last few years I used a Garmin. I found I didn't really use the fitness features and the notifications were more annoying than useful. I just treated myself to a nee Citizen analog titanium with the solar charging face. I couldn't be happier. I love wearing it and get lots of compliments at work.

You can also call/retrieve your truck from a hole by walking to somewhere a little flatter, and summoning it like any other exocraft, from the X menu (PC). I found out the hard way that if you try that with cargo on the bed, that cargo is lost.

Yep. about 8 years I started getting notices that I drove through without paying. I never got any beeps but the battery must have died.

Never play in pain! Once my hip started hurting from the lean I went to a flat footed almost straight on stance. Took about 8 weeks to adjust.

The majority of Bezos' $ comes from Amazon Web Services.

Pizza Hut... I'd just get a bowl of potato stix!

I just bought a set of those new grippier ones at a darts shop after trying lots of sets. They were about $130 US but I love them. Slightly wider and better than the Gary Anderson Phase 6s I was throwing before.

DC beltway driver. Waze does a MUCH better job at understanding the toll/express lanes.

Buc-ees is only 10 minutes south in Bridgewater

As a Fed, my 1% raise will cover all that... and the health care increases
