Can it be grown in a container to stop root spread, rather like mint?

I grow it in a large tub. Much easier to control.

Yup. Big tub. In fact, this year, I have garlic growing in there, too.
 
Still every few years I find a bit growing in another tub on the deck
and assume there is some critter spread of it.
 
I grow mint in pots, too, never loose.

I like their horsey sauce. You can also make it just by
stirring "prepared horseradish" with mayo. Close enough.
 
I've never started with raw horseradish but I do use the
"prepared horseradish" heavily. Especially in cocktail
sauce. I always keep a small jar in the fridge.

The best horseradish I ever had was at my nephew's stag. It was freshly
grated. It was so fresh they had not needed to add vinegar. A little
went a long way.

Horseradish is invasive, it's wise to contain it, use a length of clay
chimney flue buried deeply in the ground.

It used to be cheap.... like ox tails, short ribs and chicken wings.

I'd never heard of Hormel meatloaf, either, so I looked it up.

I've been wearing a mask in the grocery store for well
over a month now. Never outside in fresh air.
What's your issue?

I was out for a bicycle ride yesterday and was amazed at the number of
people I saw driving alone in their cars and wearing masks. There seemed
to be more doing that than wearing them in stores. It seemed so strange
because there is really no need to wear one in a car by yourself.

I've seen the same thing. I'll take a wild guess and say people wear
them in their cars so they won't forget to put it on when they get where
they are going. :)

I agree. I also see many people just walking alone outside
and wearing a mask. Even maintenence workers here.
 
I saw a funny this morning. Woman walking her little dog. Woman
was wearing a face mask. Dog had one hanging around it's neck but
not covering nose and mouth.
 
I talked to her for a few minutes about that. Seems that the dog
was very interested in her once she put a mask on. So she said,
"oh, would like one too?"
 
So she put one on her dog at home and the dog seemed to like it.
She did pull it down on the neck when going for a walk as she
assumed it wouldn't be so good for breathing while walking.
 
Wished I had a camera for that one. Dog with mask was cute.

I see a lot of people wearing the improperly and touching their faces a
lot. When I was at Costco a couple days ago they guy at the front
sanitizing the carts had a mask on but it was below his nose.
 
 
I was getting curbside pickup at a pet shop on the weekend and an
elderly English couple came along wearing masks. I got a bit of a dirty
look from the woman, which I thought might have been because I was not
wearing a mask. Then she stood about a foot behind me. I just turned
around and looked at the ground and the narrow space between us and
shook my head.

Poofy hair. heh heh
I always get a kick out of his constant mad face almost
everytime I see him on the news.
Meanwhile, there's the wife behind him...
She's probably praying that he loses the next election.
I suspect she is so "over" all this crap. lol

I think you are very wrong, every woman would be thrilled being The
First Lady of the the US... Melania will bask in the noteriety for
eternity. On her own hardly a soul would care about her, or even have
heard of her, especially as she ages and her (under the knife) beauty
fades... before she married The Donald hardly anyone ever heard of
her. Melania is already showing her age. Naturally you don't notice
that she hides her age under a blanket of makeup. LOL

You also talked about what I quoted above that he didn't mention
his work lunch plan. He did say it and I quoted what he said.
 
Your criticism of his potatoes over beans and rice had no
relevance to what I responded to so I snipped it.

Sorry for the delayed response.
Thanks for posting that.
 
So you started working for yourself...your own business and it's
still going. Maybe too nosey but I'll ask. What do you do now
on your own? If that's TMO, nevermind. I always enjoy reading
about a success story.
 
Interesting stastistic I read many years ago:
Of all new start-up businesses, 95% of them close within
the first year.
 
Of the remaining 5%, most of them close within the next
5 years. Whatever you do (or have you switched occasionally)
has kept you going for 30 years now. You win.

I did the same yesterday - breakfast for dinner and
about the same time of day.
 
3 eggs over easy, some stuffing/dressing on the side
along with 2 slices of toasted and buttered rye bread.
 
First time I ever used stuffing with eggs. Surprisingly,
it was a really tasty combo. I'll do it again.
 
I had made the stuffing earlier to eat with oven roasted
chicken thighs and vegetables. Changed my mind later and
already had the stuffing so I tried it with the eggs.
 
Later that evening, I made a stuffing sandwich.
Just white bread, mayo and stuffing. Also pretty tasty.
