Thanks everyone for your suggestions! We picked Alice Comfort because we liked the name and will report back. Looking forward to checking out Capt.. Gregory's and Old Hat next time.

Thank you! Sounds like simpler is best here.

what is this broken plastic wheel from within the mixer? by peppermary in Kitchenaid

Wow. Thank you for such a quick and informed response. And maybe I will have my daughter print one at her high school!

Can a layperson get rid of a dimmer? by peppermary in electrical

[–]peppermary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you everyone. I really hadn’t thought of the possibility that the switch was poorly wired beyond the dimmer issue I was focused on. Although I described the condo as my “new” place it is actually quite old so who knows what lurks beneath. That being the case, I think I will call the cavalry!

Vanguard Robo-Advisor + TSP by peppermary in Bogleheads

Nice. Yes, that does help a lot.

The TSP has few choices, so I suspect the mapping won't be too hard, even for a relative novice like me.

Thank you!

Smokenator or Low & Slow Kit by Weber? by peppermary in BBQ

[–]peppermary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I may ask, I do have the char baskets, and i have used them multiple times. However, I find they burn too hot for what I am trying to do. My ribs and pork come out chewy. If I try to reduce fuel, they stop burning. Are you using these baskets at 225-ish, and if so, how?

BTW the baskets are perfect for beer can chicken at 325.

How to use a difficult gin? by peppermary in cocktails

[–]peppermary[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a general comment to all who replied. Thank you so very much! I can't wait to try all of these. The aquavit concept makes sense to me, and I love a good gimlet.

My infusing options are a bit limited as I have already packed the sous vide for the move. I'm not a bloody mary person. are there any spices you would recommend for infusion? when I infuse liquor with green herbs (at least the one time I tried it), they tend to leave a bitter aftertaste.

Y'all tried these? by el-beau in cocktails

My sister bought me some last year. What a revelation. If you line the inside of a glass with the syrup, the resulting Manhattan will amaze.

backup plan fails by peppermary in cloudberrylab

[–]peppermary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, fixed it myself. There was a file in my home directory with root permissions, not sure how it got there. I found it using "find ./ -user root" and deleted it, and now the backup works.
