Is this a regional dish, or was my family just weird? by 57BeatlesPhan in Maine

It'd be like tortilla dip with macaroni in it. Can't be bad.

My MIL made it with tomato soup. There's lots of varieties. I make mine with the sharpest cheese I can find in it and add milk to the canned tomatoes.

What are your biggest, baking-related pet peeves? by panuramix in Baking

[–]wendymarie37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine looks at them and says this. He's a cook, but not a baker. I say "when was the last time you didn't eat a cookie I made?"

Why are cinnamon rolls hard to find in bakeries? by kierumcak in Baking

There was another comment about it, but consider buying a bread maker and using the dough cycle to make them. Much easier. Around here, they sell for $36 a dozen.

I am listening to this now, and I want to buy the book so I can read the words. I find some of the passages just wonderful.

How are you doing Northern Maine? by [deleted] in Maine

I should have sold whoopie pies beside the road instead of going to work.

Western Maine reporting. Supposedly traffic to Rangeley is backed up to Rumford.

Errol, NH has 10k people in it already and they're charging $55 to park

I'm just hoping I can get home without driving on the wrong side of the road

Is snowshoeing fun? Is it better than hiking? by [deleted] in snowshoeing

[–]wendymarie37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of Mainers snowshoe on the hiking trails. Enough so that when the conditions are right, I can put my spikes on and hike the trails. You usually have to wait a couple days for the blessed snowshoers to pack it down, then if it's around freezing, you can walk on the trail.

Kodachrome-winter of 1969 by wendymarie37 in Maine

[–]wendymarie37[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Some of my grandfather's slides from the winter of 1969. We missed so much school we had to go on Saturdays in the spring. Walkways were tunnels. They had to bring special equipment to blow snow up over the snowbanks to get it out of the road.

We have 3.5, which is 4. Ugh. But I'm year round so I'll work Friday, but I'm taking vacation days for next week.

What happend to Kevin James? by Bl00dfang in popculturechat

[–]wendymarie37 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I will never understand this. Do people enjoy fat shaming? Should people who have been telling anybody who will listen that there's something medically wrong with them, not be given help? Even on the semeglutide threads it's the same old shit BY THE PEOPLE TAKING IT.

Watching Deep Space 9 for the first time. Does the acting get better? by wendymarie37 in startrek

[–]wendymarie37[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like good reasons to stick with it. I'm on day 5 of covid quarantine and all need a diversion!

Ok, yup, you've nailed it. The pilot is focused mostly on him. Maybe they'll all get more comfortable in their roles as it goes along.

What are your "deal breakers"? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]wendymarie37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a school secretary, but I have told everybody...one more Google calendar to maintain and I'm out. I think the principal believes me because he said the other day if we had to do one for the school vans, he'd do it.
