It was well-meant advice, but you're free not to follow it.

Shakespeare put it in a gender specific manner, thus limiting the
scope of the statement by 50%.

It's all what you're used to. We're getting the barest flurry of
snow right now.
 
I can recall a substantial snowfall one April, but it was gone a couple
of days later.

Maybe it's good if they get it out of their system. Maybe they won't
kick their dog.

It was "Cooking from Quilt Country: Hearty Recipes from Amish and Mennonite Kitchens," by Marcia Adams, 1989.

Preground peppercorns has that nice aromatic tang from ~10% ground
mouse turds. It's smart to sift through whole peppercorns prior to
using in your spice grinder... you will find rodent poops, rodent
hairs, and insect parts.

I know I did not get it through Amazon, but cannot recall the seller
at all.
 
I know I ordered a larger amount and vac-packed it.
 
I see The Spice House carries it cheaper and they are a decent
company.

it's not just cookie/cakes but also things
like a chocolate or candy bar - if i want
anything decent tasting i have to make it
myself.

ick, i've never really liked the sweetened
yogurts. if that's all that is available i
try to get the ones with fruit on the bottom
and scrape off the top, but even those are way
too sweet for me.
 
i've always liked the plain yogurts (whole
milk the best) because of the tart aspect from
the lactic acid.
 
when i make a quick cheese cake i always add
extra lemon juice to it for more of a zip. in
the most recent batch i was thinking i should
cut the sweetened condensed milk in half and
try some plain condensed milk instead and see
if that is better. the cream cheese is kinda
sweet itself as it is...

Happily, I like plain chocolate, so good quality candy bars are easy
to find.

Sweetened condensed milk in a cheesecake? Huh. Never
heard of it. Here's what I use:
 
Filling:
1 pound cream cheese at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs well beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
 
No lemon with dairy for me.
 
But what really makes the cheesecake for me is the crust:
 
1/4 pound butter, melted
16 graham cracker squares, coarsely crushed (1 square = 4 crackers)
1/4 cup brown sugar
 
It's the brown sugar that does it.

A tortilla is not even close to pizza dough. tortillas (flour or corn)
contain no leavening agent... may as well add your toppings to matzo.
Occasionally those over size Thomas's English muffins can substitute
for pizza crust... just add toppings and bake.

Do you think there is leavening in dominos pizzas pre made thin crust
pizzas? If you are wondering no there is not. They are basically a
thick tortilla, and yes I do know this I did manage a dominos awhile
back.
 
Now just to be clear, I will say that a long time ago before dominos
premade their thin crust it was actually hand tossed very thin and
there was leavening in that dough, but they did change that when they
started premaking thin crust and that would about 25 or so years ago.

I recall when Domino's was a local chain with half a dozen stores. Their
pizza was good then.
 
In any event, I don't care for a cracker-like pizza crust. If it
doesn't have some chew, it's not worth it.
 
All this talk of pizza induced me to defrost some of my homemade crust.
It'll be pizza tonight for us.

I love your tactic of trying to rebut anything I say either with a
personal insult or alluding to something that is simply not true. I was
not aware that your mother was a refugee. That is certainly not what you
said about her before. It is fairly common knowledge here that refugee
applicants are automatically entitles to collect welfare, and that all
residents are entitled to health care. There is normally a waiting for
provincial health care benefits but there is a special program to
provide limited interim care until the provincial benefits are available.

The earliest yoghurt I remember had no brand name on it. It was
delivered by the milkman, in unmarked bottles. No Danone in sight.
