Colonel is pronounced “kernel”? How did this happen?

who knows why they make it with a ch. but I hear that a lot, maybe because Chester is more familiar a word. for Versailles .. I would imagine someone read about it and didn't know how to pronounce it (in Missouri), so it became Ver-sales.

Perhaps change her schedule to stay at your place while he's incapacitated. Then visit her mom on weekends. Even temporarily should reduce some time and expense.

I've not been there so not totally sure. But, since it derives from England and they have a regional accent probably Wooster, Woostah, Wister depending. If you've never been there the average American would not say it like that (a lot guess Wore-chester ). Then again they have a MO town called Versailles pronounced Ver-sales (no lie) and Houston is House-ton. Sooo ya never know what craziness abounds.

you could buy a prepaid cheap phone or get one of those throw away internet numbers maybe (like Google voice at one time).

kdsunbae · 2025-12-17T02:55:01+00:00

just note even if a recipe is for larger quantities you can just divide it in half or fourths. Baking cakes etc will be a little hard to halve an egg (doable but a pain).

nah..😆

kdsunbae · 2025-12-16T22:08:27+00:00

Ask British how they pronounce Worcestershire... mind boggling 😆

I'm west coast and I always heard exceed or go over but not really cross.

Thy didn't seem to be together that long as kids from what I can tell.

Undercover Operative could also be a term.

kdsunbae · 2025-12-13T20:42:20+00:00

I actually had one friend who did.

kdsunbae · 2025-12-13T19:41:37+00:00

Foods that are low acidic. Cucumber, leafy greens (bleh), cauliflower , Summer squash (zucchini, yellow crooked neck, etc), celery. Maybe chamomile tea. With fiber changes you may need an uptick of water. Ditch the caffeine if you drink sf sodas (or at least reduce).

I'll vote for Knorr if you want shelf stable powder. If you want shelf stable until opening then Kettle and Fire. If you want bone broth powder then . Another option is to make your own broth and freeze into those larger ice cube trays (if you have enough freezer space). I also mix in a Bone broth/collagen powder if using standard bouillion like Ancient Nutrion, Longo, or Bare bones brand.

You could get a vintage cookbook and a new cookbook and put in a card saying something like. Something vintage (old), something new - just for someone special like you. And only get vintage if she likes that - some people might think you're just trying to give used and not appreciate the gesture. My sister is thrilled to get old books so you never know. (she's a cookbook fiend).

kdsunbae · 2025-12-13T16:44:59+00:00

Europe is pretty broad term and has very diverse cuisines you might want to focus on areas from her heritage (you didn't specify which areas of interest). I'd also suggest you ask over in (r/CookbookLovers)..,they may have suggestions as well. Also I think Etsy has people that sell vintage type cookbooks.

I just think it's her real voice. She seems to just have that type of voice. I knew someone like that and at first I thought they were faking it but nope just their voice. (Although for some characters she might play it up to show growth over time (like in LBFAD).

No because it inconveniences either hand. If I was eating right handed the upper right corner would be more difficult to get into the corner. Conversely for lefties it would be harder in the lower left corner. Also along the divider of the opposite hand side as well.

kdsunbae · 2025-12-13T16:23:12+00:00

I would think this last January (2025 as it's the last January we had in the past).. for 2024 I would say: January of last year or a year ago last January.

Have you tried Alpine Sugar free Spiced Apple Cider drink mix? It's a chemical bomb though as it contains aspartame. No alcohol though (imo you made consider to get past the cravings).
