I do like orange chicken if *I* make it. But I use orange sauce and just a
touch. Too much sauce and... Yuck! Years ago I got lemon chicken at a
Safeway. I loved it. They quit making it. I realized though that it was the
lemon sauce I liked. Not so much the chicken. Have not found a similar
recipe and I'm sure it was some Americanized crap.

It's hard to keep track. Once they get into the EU they are pretty well
free to go anywhere in the union and many of them are travelling to the
more prosperous northwestern countries where there are better jobs and
better social programs. as it stands now, close to 15% of the
population is foreign born.

Whose fault it that? Certainly not the wealthy. I pay my share and not
a penny more, same as they do. The tax laws need major overhaul.
 
Congress has the power, but since many of them a wealthy too, they don't
want to change things.

There is no comparison. If what's been happening in the UK and Sweden happened in the US, America would just plotz. You guys believe you have a problem with immigration to the US. No, you do not. The Europeans have a problem with immigration. Quit whining - you babies.
 
OTOH, the key to having a strong and vibrant future in America is new blood. We're gonna need new people, new ideas, and fresh new attitudes, not to mention a health tax base. America has gone stagnant, limp, and impotent. These days, Americans just want to get as much stuff as they can grab and engorge themselves before the shit hits the fan. A nation with such values is headed straight towards mediocrity. That's the breaks.
 
My suggestion is that you try to find out the answers to your own questions, Squertz. I don't have time to do your thinking for you.

I have two of these Pepper Mills.
 
https://smile.amazon.com/Pepper-Grinder-Salt-Shaker-Professional/dp/B074Z8JB31/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=pepper+mill&qid=1551410171&s=gateway&sr=8-6
 
I did not purchase them through Amazon. Can't remember where I got them.
They came filled with peppercorns. I got two because I like to keep one in
the kitchen and one near the computer. I usually eat here.
 
Both worked fine until I refilled them. Then something weird happened. All
of a sudden, the grinding mechanism went haywire. When I try to grind, it
chips off a bit of the outside. Out plops almost a whole peppercorn and some
smaller pieces. I did try to adjust the grinding mechanism. That didn't
help. Almost like it's stuck or something! At least I didn't pay a lot for
them!
 
Anyone else have this happen?

I guess you don't get much for 10 bucks. Recently bought an Oxo for $12
that seems to be ok. Also bought a new Atlas but that was much more
expensive. It got lost in the move, but we had it for about 40 years.
I like a crank on top rather than turn a wheel for times you want a lot
of pepper.

Being wealthy I bought a couple of William Bounds pepper mills. One to use, and one as a backup of the one I'm using breaks!

Jinxy we all have the interment! Look what I found!

That is posted only for the stats on cottage cheese. I eat 2%. I don't
believe what they say about the cholesterol in diet.

I only eat the 4% non-low-fat cottage cheese. I have no need to watch my
cholesterol. I did notice, however, that those amounts listed on this
website were for 1 full cup, which is double a serving size.

I checked a couple sites and they all indicate that a serving of cottage
cheese is one cup.

Interesting. The cottage cheese in my refrigerator that I had for dinner
lists 1/2 cup as the serving size.

Doesn't that depend on how you like your eggs scrambled? Between
adding, milk vs. water, how much you whip them up before cooking, how
hot you cook them , how much you stir them, scrambling before or after
they go into the pan, there are dozens of ways to scramble eggs,

Soy bacon actually tastes like bacon but it is very crisp. If you don't like
crisp bacon, you won't like it.

Fortunately, many in the medical field see pain as an obstacle for
healing. If it had not been for opioids I would not have had any sleep
at all for the two months it took to heal. I was also well informed
about the risk of the medication I was taking. I liked not being in
pain, but I can't say that I enjoyed being stoned have the time. Some
people seem to like that part.

Thanks! But I eventually found some. Just need to find a good deal on the
Spanish ones. Seems Albertsons is the only place that sells them now.

Most of the frittata prep can be done sitting down, and all can be
done a day in advance... I make frittatas very often and even though I
can do it while standing I know there isn't much to prep.... I even
crack all the eggs, scramble them with a hand mixer and store the
stainless steel bowl in the fridge with a plate for a lid. I don't
shred the spuds, I peel and dice them into 1/2" cubes, let them fry on
the lowest heat and with no tending, when they are cooked through I
shut off the heat and just let the pan sit. I typically use SPAM and
make that a 1/2" dice too and fry it on low along with the spuds....
if you don't like SPAM use diced kielbasa... I sometimes use both...
no bacon here, but sometimes diced Hebrew National salami. and often
diced bell pepper and onion. Frittata ingredients are infinite, I
like to add plain pasta, cheese, clean out the fridge.... diced
celery, sliced pimento stuffed olives work
If you get a comfy computer chair for your kitchen you can just roll
your butt from point to point. Our frittatas are typically a dozen or
18 eggs, may as well make enough for a couple three meals... saves you
a lot of standing.... left over frittata can be reheated with a brown
egg foo yung and 'shroom sauce. I always use the entire carton of
eggs, loose eggs are an accident waiting to happen. To me it makes
no sense to cook a 2-3 egg fritatta, it's the same work for a dozen
egg fritatta and the same work to clean a large pan as a small pan.
Cooking large amounts of any kind of food saves a lot of labor.
