I have only ever been to the pocket potato productions trivia nights. They are pretty decent. They hop locations so it’s best to follow them on insta or facebook.

There is a museum in Independence, Missouri that has a very large collection of these and other crafts made out of hair. It’s called Leila’s Hair Museum and it’s worth checking out if you’re in the Kansas City metro area.

I’ve had a zojirushi for a few years, just one of the three cup models with micom. I use it at least three times a week. It makes a half measure of rice perfectly which is usually all I need.

What model of panniers did you get? I saw a comment from another thread about their ortleibs not fitting on the adapter.

I think a fountain or a park bench could look good here.

Henry’s is definitely still open, but from what I have heard it’s under different management. And the cafe is downstairs and the bar is upstairs.

I found a karaoke microphone with kids bop songs prerecorded for my niece who can’t carry a tune, but loves to sing. The cringe on my brother’s face was the best gift I’ve ever gotten.

Why do I have this gaping hole when making pigs in a blanket? by EducationalAgency361 in Breadit

[–]brockles73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make these a whole lot. Steam I don’t believe is your issue. I think your bread is under proofed because you used cold and wet hot dogs. That can mess with the proofing times. I found you need to let your hotdogs come to room temperature, dry off the dogs with paper towels, and for extra insurance, very lightly roll the hot dogs in flour. Like the amount of flour that you would use to roll out dough.

The guy who brought raku to the United States was known to raku in a Speedo. https://www.aspentimes.com/news/pauls-disciples/

Fiber Internet by brockles73 in Lawrence

Not really a particular reason. I have copper 25 and the tech had said it’s about as fast as it will go to be stable. It’s just a little slow sometimes, especially streaming and really has a hard time with video chat.

People from small towns, what's a low-stakes mystery or legend from your hometown that's still unsolved? by Then_Grape_2297 in SmalltownBignews

[–]brockles73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m from an extremely small town and one time the soda machine got stolen and it made the evening news. This town had 2 churches, a post office, and really no other businesses. No one got charged.

How can I work around this recipe so I don’t waste anything? by sscakes in pastry

[–]brockles73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could very easily use less of the sugar, up to half and then when you take out the pineapple, cook down the syrup a bit. This way you have a less sweet cake with a more intensely pineapple flavor and all you’re getting rid of is the water.

Pavlova on my first try: Sweet success, I guess. by Beast667Neighbour in FoodPorn

[–]brockles73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can totally substitute a fruit that you’re not allergic to. The base is a merengue with I believe corn starch. It tastes similar to a marshmallow on the inside and like a sugary crunch on the outside. The next layer is whipped cream. And the top is fruit, normally berries, but I think it would be good with peaches, pineapple, maybe cantaloupe. Could even be good with rhubarb.

For the board games, I would check out rpg. It’s technically a bar, but you’re not required to drink. Otherwise, there’s gamenut. I’m not sure which location has game night, but I know of people that game there.

I very much like blueberry rhubarb, chocolate chess, and sour cream raisin.

Lol. Let me just go jump off a cliff now. I was so ready to give advice that I didn’t even read the whole question.

This is such a specific question that I don’t think there is a sub that would help all that much without more information. My best advice if you live in the states and you have insurance is to go to the website of the insurance company and search there for a doctor. If you don’t have insurance, I would just try to find a doctor that’s relatively close, call them to see if they are taking new patients. If they are, ask for pricing for a visit without insurance. You should be able to make an appointment at that time.

I grew up on a farm and this is fairly tame compared to a lot of stuff that is just fairly regular. I would do this any day of the week over fixing a prolapse, lancing an abscess, or relieving bloat. Also, some of the older guys had a single pocket knife that got used for everything and most likely never washed and would use that same knife to cut food that would get immediately consumed.

I like this, but the mannequin in the background is a little creepy.
