I'm proposing we adopt the Vulcan salute and "Nanu Nanu" instead of
handshakes for in person greeting and salutations.

Not here. Uber Eats and the other delivery services are killing it.
The majority of these young, overpaid yuppies are still eating
overpriced restaurant food 2X a day.

They make a big deal and undertake a study to come up with the obvious
that everyone has known for the past century. The PC crowd does not
have the balls to state "as expected"

Detroit is an urban phenomenon in a class of its own with an incredible
number of abandoned homes and buildings. Before writing about that I
Googled it to make sure I had the reliable information. I started to
type in "how many abandoned houses......" and Google auto filled "in
Detroit". There were a lot more than I had expected... 70,000 abandoned
buildings, 31,000 abandoned houses and 90,000 vacant lots. With a little
more research I learned that a lot of those vacant homes and buildings
had been abandoned without shutting off the water. Pipes burst and
copper pipes were stolen, so water was gushing. That could account for a
lot of the "homes" were the water was shut off.

Some people and some groups just don't buy into the system. Then when
they fail at something they blame it on racism. Then they are content
to sit back and collect welfare, get drunk or stoned and turn all the
blame on others. Meanwhile, people of all other races and cultures are
coming here and improving their lives.

They may be the richest nation in the world, but the money's rather
unevenly divided. Take two wrong turns and you're in the 3rd world, or
so I was told by friends who went to New York. Unbridled capitalism
you know :)

It does change the flavor some. You can also try putting peppers on
a sheet pan under the broiler for a few minutes on each side, just
until the skin blisters, then into a paper bag with a damp paper
towel for a while till cool. Then peel them.

I have never worn a face mask and I wore gloves only once. I go around
people everyday and I have not gotten sick, although I may be one of
the ones that are immune to the disease by having the antibodies
already in my blood which can only mean one thing. The idiot doctors
that were so quick to spread this "novel(new)" virus to the media were
wrong and there is Nothing new about it. Especially seeing how so many
people are not affected by it at all.

I heard yesterday that using mayo instead of oleo, butter, or whatever on
the outside surfaces of a cheese sandwich before toasting it improves the
flavor. I'm going to try it for lunch today. I Googled it and it seems to
be popular. Tried it?

My mother sometimes used mayo (jarred mayonnaise, not home-made) for
toasted cheese sandwiches. When I was a kid she used margarine/oleo
because butter was reserved for "holidays".
 
I've found a drizzle of olive oil with a little butter heated in a
fairly hot non-stick skillet is the best way make an excellent toasted
(some would call it grilled) cheese sandwich. Melt the butter in the
oil until slightly bubbly then add a nice slice of bread. Top with a
slice or two of good cheese. Top with another slice of bread. Cook
until browned on one side. Use a wide spatula to turn it and brown the
other side.
 
No need to spread anything on the outside of the bread and assemble the
sandwich first, which is the method I grew up with and always found a
bit messy.
 
To answer your question, Ken, mayonnaise never grabbed my attention when
it comes to making a really good toasted/grilled cheese sandwich. YMMV.

Not at all. You have said that in the past. No worries though,

Egg noodles are a subset of pasta.
Pastas can be made with eggs, or just with water (or some other liquid).

Good Lord! Rice doesn't stay fresh that long.
 
We eat a lot of rice. 20 pounds might last us a year. Might. Probably not.
 
Some years ago I bought a 20 pound bag of brown Basmati rice at Costco. I
was just Angela and me here at the time. Neither of us was overly fond of
that rice and many times we had to force ourselves to eat it. We did get
close to eating most of it but I decided it wasn't worth forcing it down. So
I threw out and bought the more expensive rice that we really like.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend's death; so young to die. I have
no experience with large older dogs but I see you've already gotten some
great advice here.
 
Good luck!

Yeah...I'll bet it will go on a good sale once it's normally
stocked soon. No one will be buying it as they all have a year's
supply by now. heh ehe

Do you mean that you don't comment on each and every of Bruthie or
Kootchie threads? I really don't blame you, neither one ever posts on
topic. For dinner tonight we decided on fried eggs, four each, but
nothing with them so wasn't a lot. Tomorrow pork chops with some kind
of frozen veggies. Lately I'm becoming a lazy cook plus I'm running
out of ideas of what to make... I'm lucky that she who rules is not a
fussy eater. Mostly she eats salads and those she makes her own.
