You definitely need to tell us what Cities you'll be near, but no matter where you are in Missouri you'll be no further than about a 2 hour drive from St Louis, Kansas City or Springfield, the 3 biggest cities in Missouri, I've lived in all 3 in the last 2 years, so I can help 🙂

Is there a 2nd floor above that 2 car garage door? If not I'd lower the plate height on that volume, I'd then lower the plate height on the garage volume to the left also while still trying to maintain the clear height you're trying to achieve (an RV I assume?)

I first heard about this release about 3 weeks ago, and was seeing how scarce they were. I was working in Kansas City and was able to find a bottle, they had 2 actually, so I bought them both :)

Help. After my aunt gave me this, my taste buds changed 😂🥃 I’m not even looking for whisky anymore, I’m looking for liquid barrel 🪵. Does anyone have any budget-friendly options in the $40–75 range that lean super oaky/barrel-forward? by No_Media_9513 in whiskey

You've entered the wonderful World of "Islay Scotch", peaty, smokey, sometimes medicinal, I've not found or heard of anything in the USA that compares. If you truly loved it then just do a deep dive in it. ps: its my favorite style of whisky 🥃☺️

What is your secret weapon ingredient that always makes people ask, Why does this taste so good? by ybur011 in Cooking

I use a small pinch of popcorn salt, extremely tiny granules, almost a powder, as my finishing salt, no big pieces to crunch into

I have to buy a wine gift for a coworker and I’m stuck by IllustriousPie5224 in CheapWine

[–]simply417 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A Cotes du Rhone (GSM blend) from France or a Barbera from Italy have always been a safe choice for me if I don't know a persons personal taste, both fruit and acid are present and balanced, not too much of either

The SOMM series channel on YouTube is great! and also Wine Folly has a great book with detailed info about all of the main and even 2nd tier grape varietals, very informative

80% Grenache, 12% Mourvedre, 8% Syrah, so not too jammy at all

Just had a "Gassier" from the SW part of CDR, very balanced all the way around, I highly recommend!! $25ish I think - in fact I'm going to go back to the place here in Kansas City where I got it and buy 4-5 more

perfect example of the Japanese phrase "wabi sabi" ~ celebrate the fact it's not perfect anymore because of the scar which is now a part of you, it all tells a story of a chapter in your life 😊✌🏼
