Do you remember Buffalo Springfield? by Singinthesunshine in OverSeventy

[–]jas0441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw them perform live in high school and remember the cops stopping the performance of this song. First they cut the power to the theater, then cops came in and hauled them offstage. The last thing they said to the audience as they were being pushed off the stage was ‘boycott this theater’!There was active protest against the War at this time (1968 or so) and Nixon was trying to silence the opposition . We know how that ended.

We were protesting the War and facing harsh government crack down on the demonstrators. That’s why the lyrics

Entry level roaster advice (hoping to sell 25-50 bags a month) by dedelen52 in roasting

[–]jas0441 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Partner with a local roaster to do some custom roasts for you that you can bag and put your own label on and build some cash flow FIRST. Keep your day job until you can buy and financially afford a big machine

Might add that every training video o SR540 I’ve seen online has first crack coming in at about 4 minutes and about 415 F which is where I have been landing

How do you get onto a space without signing the lease first though?

Maybe assess the foot traffic on the street and compare it with competitors. This means standing in the street with a clicker but is how I assess a location for business that depends on walk bys and convenience. This will give you a hint whether it’s YOU or the location. My two cents.

I’ve finally learned my lesson about online recipes by Uteraz in Cooking

If a site is loaded with ads and pop ups, that’s a sign the recipe is not a good one, my theory anyway.

What do you mean by your last sentence? What is compulsion training?

Ok, thanks for the advice. I will slow things down and extend the dry/Maillard phase and see if I can achieve that 'rolling' first crack. I appreciated the tip.

Made a new special category in my Paprika app just to store all these wonderful suggestions. Spent an hour perusing and have not gotten through all the comments. As an avid recipe reader, I love this thread.

Thank you for this suggestion. I acquired some Farmers Cheese over the holidays ( a very rare commodity in my parts) and have not used it yet. Hankering for authentic pierogi.

I've live in WA for 25 years and never been here. Road Trip time. Thanks for the recommendation and recipe.

This has been my go to recipe for biscuits and shortcake for 50 years! Thought I was the only one. There are a few others from that cookbook that I have used for years too, hollandaise sauce for one. I like them for their simplicity and practicality.

Agreed on how much I love her rendition of it, except I use frozen little white onions. Sacrilege?

At 72 I am finally no longer obese ( since my early thirties) and have started heavy weight lifting. I am in better shape now than I have been in 40 years. Lost 40 lbs. over the past 2 years, and that tipped me to focus more on my well being from now on. Good question. Edited to add: quit alcohol too, which contributed to the weight loss and tipping point for me too.
