And they were "all pretty horrified" at being given free stuff! And of
course she's going to go out of her way to give some free bread to her
friend if she manages to drive by. Sheesh.

Why horrified? You should go to that Oakland outfit more often.
Freeze the extra's. Doesn't hurt muffins at all. Toast them and
consider yourself lucky.

I used to love eating rabbit. We usually either roasted it, or made a goulash with it. The last time I had it, I found I no longer cared for it. It was the texture. Maybe it's just too lean for my taste.

Not fear. A rational response to the odds of being the victim of
a crime.

He sees no reason to lock it up if one or both of us is home.

There have been reports of home invasions in our neighborhood.
He's home alone all day, when burglars expect people to be at
work.
 
Better safe than sorry.

The world is becoming(has become)a more violent place. Street gangs used to fight with fists, chains, the odd zip gun etc. Here in Kitchener(about 3 hours from Detroit)we had a brazen daylight shooting and murder right on the main drag in the east end. The police did chase the car, but ended up in an accident, so the perps got away. Stuff like that never used to happen.
When I was a wee lad, there was a grocery store downtown with very limited parking. Sometimes my dad had to double park, and when he did that he left the keys in the ignition so that the other person who was parked in could move our car. Those days are long gone.

My guess is the lady was just trying to get a rise out the the cashier

No , not the breaded and dropped in boiling oil kind of fry , but
baby fishies kind of fry . We bought 4 green lantern platies , 3 girls
and a boy , they have so far produced 2 batches of fry , right now there
are over 20 babies in 2 small mesh/plastic baskets in the big tank . I
was hoping they'd reproduce , but I sure didn't expect this ! I sure
hope I can find someone to take some of these , 40+ fish is probably too
many in a 30 gallon tank ...

Are you trying to turn me into a vegetarian? Not gonna happen, no
matter how many horrific videos you show me. I don't agree with
inhumane treatment of animals but face it, we raise them to be *food*,
not pets. Why does the age matter? Lamb tastes better than mutton.
Much more tender, too. Same thing with veal. Although I do love a good
mature beef steak. :)

All silly complaints, imo. If you enjoyed the meal, the lingering
smell should be pleasant. Lingering cooking odor only lasts a day
or so anyway.

Even among meat eaters I suspect that veal is probably very
politically incorrect and unpopular these days.
 
Take a few minutes to read all of this. Pretty sad stuff.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veal
 
Did you read all of that? Very cruel stuff for young animals.
 
All that said, sadly it seems to be the norm for many animals
that are raised commercially for our meat. To raise animals for
our food is one thing but to treat them cruelly as so many are is
just wrong. It's very wrong. What the hell is wrong with us?
 
Animals raised for human food should at the very least be given a
happy life from birth until the end. Sickening actually how so
many are treated.
 
In the old days, humans had to hunt for meat. At least those
animals had a normal life before being killed.

I agree, Gary. I am not against meat eating but at least allow them
to have some kind of happy life first.

Ditto. It also helps if you have and use a vent hood. There are rarely
lingering cooking odors in my kitchen. Nothing smells unpleasant unless
it was burned.

Personally I think that Tourette's syndrome is a farce and just
an excuse for an controlled bad temper.
 
Imagine a person that grew up very sheltered and never learned
any cuss words at all. What would that Tourette syndrome person
do? Burst out yelling, "TREE! OCEAN! DOG! CAT! HAMBURGER!" ???
LOL!
 
IMO, someone that bursts out in public cussing should have their
ass kicked. They will quickly learn not to do that again. If
someone with me did that in public, they would never do it again
(at least not when I'm with them).
 
Same thing with all this transgender nonsense these days. You
want to be a woman? Guess what? You are NOT a woman so deal with
it. You can NOT use a woman's bathroom, freak. ;)

Your understanding of Tourette Syndrome is incorrect. It is not
just uncontrolled swearing.
 
Your understanding of the spectrum of sexuality and sexual identity
is similarly primitive.

Sheldon gave up onions for his wife. I wouldn't do that.
I would just cook 2 versions of a meal.

It's common in most Gazpacho recipes. That's why I like this one.
