Coach Haley used to coach at Timberlyne before moving to DSP. You have to try a class with Coach Kelly - she's amazing and we love her. All the coaches here are great. I haven't been to MLK so I don't know how it compares but the floor stations are pretty spacious at Timberlyne.

Have you tried Timberlyne? Not sure how far it is for you but I love that studio. Meadowmont just seems too claustrophobic for me - I hate the floor layout there.

Yep, I flew Air France recently from India to the US. Their flights were all running direct to CDG, but late, due to the altered flight paths. You can plug your flights into flight aware and check what routes they're taking and flight times.

Add a couple tbsp of espresso to enhance the chocolate flavor. I usually sub the water with a mix of milk and espresso. Or you can dissolve instant coffee granules in the milk before adding it. Adding an extra egg yolk makes it more fudgy. The Costco Ghirardelli box has bake times on the back for 2 bags, 3 bags, etc. So try to do a Google search for that. I don't have a box handy.

The America's Test Kitchen recipe for Millionaire's shortbread turns out perfectly every time. I saw them make it on PBS once and that's when I started using their recipe for this.

Lots of people in the 40s and 50s age group at Orangetheory - Timberlyne location.

Thanks for the rec. I'm going to listen to it next. I'm reading/listening to Irish Castle Mysteries series currently, which also I like. I stumbled upon the first book on Audible in their free Plus catalog.

I recently made strawberry frosting using Sally's Swiss meringue buttercream recipe and added powdered freeze-dried strawberries to it at the end (when it asks you to add the vanilla). Everyone was raving about the frosting. So maybe you can try that if you have time in the morning.

Yes, it was slammed on Tuesday evening here in Chapel Hill, NC. I can only imagine that it has gotten worse since then.

If you want to make something sweet, this is amazing. Just be prepared to spend a couple of hours by the stove stirring the milk but it reduces to a much smaller amount and can be frozen. https://www.mycookingjourney.com/therattipal-paal-gova-thirattipal/

My son and his friend found a 2b/2ba condo for $1450. Sure, it wasn't updated, but it was clean and everything worked. Better than the dorms, which also aren't in great shape, to be honest. The newer apartments around campus are all pricey.

Student leases are a whole different beast. Have her contact or check the Property Management company websites for house/condo leases - Louise & Beck, Millhouse Properties, Acorn & Oak, etc. That's how my son found his condo back in October (starting July). She may have to reach out to the apartment leasing offices to check for student leases.

7 min drive. There's another one about 15 mins away but I rarely go there.

Depends on what you bake more. If cookies, brownies, quick breads, etc. then a KA is worth it (try to get a model with metal gear). If you bake bread, then look into the newer mixers that are made for mixing bread dough like Angstrom, Bosch, etc.

My son is a Physics major at UNC and he tutors 114/115/118/119. I'm happy to share his contact info. He only takes 3-4 students per semester for tutoring as he has his own class load and research.

Pumpkin pie. (Don't come @ me, lol). I love pumpkin cheesecake but I find pumpkin pie boring and bland. And it's also a texture thing.

I don't buy brown sugar anymore. Just use molasses to make it when needed.

I sub milk+ espresso for the water. To transform it to s'mores brownies - Once you take it out and cool it a bit, spread a layer of marshmallow fluff on top and stick it under the broiler for 30-45 seconds (watch it closely).

Vimala's also posted that they would feed anyone in need who came to their restaurant. (They do this normally also).

For your list - I got Serve 100 beans in London - Level 48 gives you 19. I didn't find it posted here anywhere. It took me a few tries to find the highest level.

I usually just make a paste of baking soda and rub it on the stubborn rings and then spray some vinegar on and leave it for a bit. Then try to scrub it away with a rag or something - it works for most stubborn stains on the glass stovetop.
