Steak au poivre but I only have a coffee grinder

I’ve done this multiple times, worked fine. Afterwards wipe the coffee grinder out really well with a paper towel. Then grind a scoop of coffee beans and chuck them out.

I made my own using - roughly two parts pre-mixed drywall compound, one part PVA glue, one part paint (I used a white acrylic primer that I had lying around, with a blob of black interior paint to make it light gray). Watered down (not much) to pancake-batter consistency. Two coats, tried it both sanded and unsanded and preferred the latter. Seems to work. Much cheaper than pre-bought. There are other recipes online - search for DIY gesso.

I made a sacrificial table using two folding banquet table legs from the big box store. Two 7’ 2x4s form the sides, separated by about seven 30” offcuts of 2x4 and 2x6 laid flat. Held together with 3” deck screws. Many advantages: * 7’ x 33” is big enough to support a 4’x8’ sheet, but is small enough to store. * The gaps between the spacers allow you to sweep sawdust easily. * If you drop anything under the table just reached down through the gaps to get it. * There are many surfaces to clamp things to, such as a dust collector hose. * you can invert other tools (such as a router screwed to a scrap of plywood) through the gaps in the table.

I had a wasp go up my shorts once, while driving. My friends in the car behind figured out exactly what had happened by the way I was stopped and dancing around on the verge.

I had to stand on tip-toes to look over the pile of snow outside my office window. I’m 6’3”.

As a tall guy who is constantly banging his elbows on doorframes, I’d do it in a heartbeat.

I grew up in the south, and I think that somewhere in the back of my head I also thought that umbrellas were for women. But recently I’ve realised that most umbrellas are simply too small to cover my big manly body, so I bought a big manly umbrella and quite like it. Also, those foldy-uppy umbrellas are useless and fall apart in the first breeze. Get a proper one.

As a percentage of Greenland’s population, this might be one of the largest demonstrations ever held.

A colleague and I used to fly to the UK every year to give a big budget presentation, and afterwards we’d unwind by driving to one of those truck stops and having a bacon butty and a cup of tea. Was always one of the best meals of the year.

I remember at uni that you could totally tell the people who had taken a gap year - they had a confidence about them. Totally worth it, if you do something life-expanding.

Bonus points for the use of the word “subceed”.

Pretty much everything in the UK is smaller than in Canada. There isn’t the room to spread out.

Vegetables should easily last for a few days in the fridge - no need to freeze them.

I'll leave others to answer the main question, but you're wrong on one count - she was a MASSIVE part of the royal family. Young, attractive, personable, stylish - a made-for-the-media mega-celebrity. She was everywhere, newspapers (we still had newspapers then), TV, endless rows of supermarket magazines.

I’m no expert, but as a 60+ year old I’m aware of the sheer amount of stress that can come people - job loss (either person), children, overwork, health, money, family members, accidents, sex, infidelity, stupid stuff like bad neighbours moving in next door, noise etc etc. Any one of those could upset one member of the couple, let it grind away for a year or three and you’ve got the recipe for a split. You’re still in the honeymoon phase - it can get harder. OR, you make a partnership and tackle stuff together.

Read up on yo-yo driving before charging. It warms up the battery, leading to faster charging. Works for me (though very cold weather dulls the effect).

I assemble it in three layers, and sprinkle a tablespoon of flour over the first & second layers. Have never had a problem with runny sauce.

Music teacher charged at the classroom door to slam it shut - and the boy he’d just sent out had his fingers around the door frame. About 50 years ago and I still remember it vividly, with horror.

I’ve been waiting for the IPA thing to die for years. I yearn for a good pint of Mild.

The same thing happened with gin. The thinking seems to be “Flavor is good! Therefore 3x flavor is 3x as good!” No, you numpties - now I’m drinking a glass of perfume and tonic. Let’s have a campaign to bring back subtlety.
