My pots won't nest. They're all the same diameter with straight sides.

I had to look up "dugout basement", as I'd never heard of it before. We'd
call that a "Michigan basement". I can't remember if I've ever seen one.
There's a family legend about my grandfather and his brothers shooting pistols
in one, for target practice.

As is my basement. We had the assessor down there a couple days ago,
and it looked like hell. All the better when you're "entertaining"
the tax assessor.
 
Every time I think about getting rid of stuff, I say "If I ever need
one of those again, I'd have to buy it. It's not doing any harm in
the basement."

Sounds like horseshit to me, too. Taxable valuation is related to the
market value (here), so a house without a basement would naturally be
worth less and its taxes would be lower.

If you like that stuff, you might like this stuff, but don't put it on rice.
Put it on bread or crackers. I believe you can get it at Ikea:

That's just the Kalle Kavair shtick. Everybody goes along with the shtick. It's a product that's chock full of umami. My step-mom broke it out during Thanksgiving so we could try it. My son thought it was just awesome. I'd certainly eat some next Thanksgiving. It tastes like Cheese Whiz with a fishy aftertaste. :)

Here's a video of Chinese folks eating Panda Chinese food. The interesting part is the attitude towards food of the old people vs. the younger Chinese. It's fairly obvious that the old people have endured times when food was scarce. The younger generation has so much disdain for what they eat.

Agreed, Janet. I think turmeric, sliced red beets and mushrooms, sliced
rings of onions and then a bowl of stewed tomatoes with mild green
chiles... way too overpowering.
 
It really needs to be simple, IMHO. In this case I'm surprised Carol
didn't simply suggest pan fried scallops in oil with minced ginger and
garlic and deglazed with a little stock (or whatever the current popular
Asian broth is called) and finished with a dash of soy sauce. ;) Plated
with rice. Or noodles.

The way I saw it (I could be wrong) Carol offered a few to choose from, not

Well, I stopped at the store and got her a small bag of Romaine. Had
to hunt a little to find just romaine as most were mixed with kale and
my snobby little girl does NOT LIKE KALE!
 
LOL, made that mistake once. She picked out every bit of kale and
nosed it under the fridge..... Had a heck of a time getting it all out
from under (disabilities, I don't handle that motion type well)

Yes and something in store bought *seems* to make me and Don feel a
little 'off'. It's not gluten as we eat scads of that. I am assuming
some commercial preservative messes with us mildly. It's difficult to
put our finger on.
 
It's fairly recent that we noticed it seemed to be happening when we
ate commerical breads like hot dog buns, hamburger buns and such that I
would usually get at the store since they are a little awkward to make
at home. I have the right pans for both so we will start making them
here though my hamburger bun recipe may need some practice to come out
the right size/shape we want.
 
==
 
I think it is a problem with a lot of bought stuff. Preservatives:( You
only have to look at the ingredients!
 
Things go bad much more quickly here than bought stuff. I know the reason
for that and I prefer not to use it.

I can tell from your topic heading that you're an absolutist type and/or
English is a second language. You're going to fit in well in this crowd but
what the heck is gluten free bread and butter chips? This implies that
certain brands of pickles have gluten. What brands are those? I've never had
pickles with gluten - sounds wild. :)
 
---
There is a debate as to whether or not some brands/types of vinegar contain
gluten. So it could be possible. Not likely though.

That's not true about the gluten. Some people have a gluten intolerance.
They should avoid it too. And people with arthritis often need to avoid
wheat and nightshades.
 
That being said... Most people shouldn't avoid it. AFAIK, only one other
person here has to avoid it and that's Ken K. Now gluten might not be his
issue. I know wheat is, among other things.
 
I would tell this guy to this to a GF group but I already well know that no
such group exists. There is a celiac forum but they started getting bitchy
there if you don't actually have celiac. No good food allergy groups either.
They have so much fighting going on, it makes this group look tame.
Eventually they drive off all newcomers and then turn on themselves so much
that the group fails.

Most don't expect that. The vegans I know either never dine out or go to a
vegan restaurant. Yes, there are vegan restaurants.

The offensive part to me is "death" but then he is applying it to a
religion, not necessarily the people of that religion.
 
What I think is so funny is that he or she is getting bent out of shape by
others beliefs. What does that mean? Low self esteem? Probably. Another
person's beliefs should not bother one if that person is not trying to get
you to believe as they do. Live and let live.

Again with the broad brush. I know people who turned to Christianity after
something bad happened in their life. They were not raised as a Christian.
But that doesn't apply just to Christianity. People turn to all sorts of
things. Christianity is just one of them.

Typical carnivore complaint: "They'll tell you within 5 minutes that
they're vegans." What the carnivore doesn't know is how many vegans
they've met who never told them they were vegans.

Intelligence and beliefs don't necessarily go hand in hand.
 
People tend to say, "I'll believe it when I see it!" I prefer to say, "I'll
see it when I believe it!" People say that I live in a dream world. And I
do. Dream big and make it happen! That works for me. And I don't follow any
religion at all.
 
I aldo know very intelligent people who fail at simple life skills and have
no social skills. Again, there is no one size fits all.

It's taught here for one hour only. To teach them how to sign their names.
They don't even print any more. It's all done on computer.

But of course they get NOTHING in return! Ever check that side of the
