A machine? For cornbread?

Oil's okay, but butter's better.

We have this Thermomix. It was a gift. It does everything except bake.

Then I'll use butter.

Yes, canned beans are already cooked to death before they ever come out
of the can. Much too soft for me.

Flour, sugar, baking powder, etc. ;)

Cornbread is a quick bread, usually made in a small batch. You don't
even need to stir it very hard. It's more of a thick batter than
a dough.

I'm sure it can do that.

For various cooking, sometimes I'll use a combination
of both.
 
Whenever I make cornbread, I always like to rub a stick
of butter on the top as soon as it comes out of the oven.
NOT the whole stick, just to coat it well and let it melt
and soak in.
 
I do the same with homebaked regular bread too.

A bit overkill for mixing a cornbread batter. Just use a bowl and
a paddle-like utensil. Or just a large spoon.
 
Note: I just make mine in a 8-9" cake pan.
Very hot cast iron is better though for a nice brown and
crunchy crust.

It IS a bowl and a paddle-like utensil. And a scales. I don't have to
use everything else it is. Plus when I've used it anyway, I can also
make something else in it. The other day I made coconut macaroons. And
then I ate most of them. Bad idea.

The other day, I fried an egg in butter instead of olive oil for the
first time in 25 years. I lead a very adventurous life.

Then there must be a reason because I don't know anyone to whom they
did that and many of my friends have had it done.

I don't think we watched Milton Berle or Sid Ceaser but the Friday night
fights were never missed!

My father taught me about quality audio equipment, like McIntosh preamps and power amps. Top of the line!
 
He was a radio man on a B-24 in WWII and knew good electronics! Was a Ham radio operator at home too!

I cut the cable 3 or 4 years ago now as the basic plan contained so
many sports channels I never watched. Then pick a channel came in and
I called and wanted 3 channels and that was going to be even more
expensive! So I quit. Have not regretted it. I do have rabbit ears
and in the summer when the trees have leaves (my unit is basically in
the tree canopy) it interferes with the signal. I suddenly thought of
the foil trick and it works! That gives me the 3 local channels and
the rest of it I stream, plus I do have Netflix and that's as much tv
as I need.
 
I watched Netflix' Filthy Rich the other day about Jeffrey Epstein,
never has a title been so apt. They had also done one about Prince
Andrew and his connection with him after Andrew did the ill fated
press conference. Both were excellent.

Tastes vary. I believe my husband adds a little Tabasco to his
cocktail sauce.

I add chili to just about everything savoury.

I often wear a mask in the car. I put it on at home, where I know my
hands and the mask are clean, drive to the store, come home, wash my
hands and take the mask off, being careful to only touch the ties and
not the front of the mask.

You can always just pinch the outside of the mask to lower it
down to your chin or neck. Then raise it up the same way.
 
Might depend on the type of mask. The ones I have don't hook
around the ears. It's a molded cup mask that has straps that
go around you head and neck. Good for reusing many times too.
Just let them air dry to remove the moisture from your
breath, then store for the next use. I keep one in my van
and also one at home if I walk to the nearby convenience
store. (I also still have 3rd unused mask in box)
 
Any bacteria or virus on them will be dead within 1-3 days max.
These will last a long time just for the occasional store use.
 
This is a pic of the ones I use:

They work well but are thick and annoying. Even in a store
I'll occasionally pinch it and pull it a bit off my face
just to get a breath or two of fresh air. The moment I exit
the store, it goes down around my neck.

My son made Parmesan chicken last night. He grated a large wedge of cheese. I have no idea what that was. That chicken was covered with a thick layer of gooey cheese. That was goofy and excessive.
 
My wife's dinner for tonight at work is hamburger with Korean black bean noodles. The noodles are thick and chewy - oh boy!

If it was gooey, it wasn't parmesan. Parmesan for flavor and something
like mozzarella for goo.

That looked very good. I wish I could have seen the noodles better,
but I recognize it wasn't boxed up for food critique.

We have had protests on this rock as is happening in other places in the world. I wouldn't expect any burning and looting. This ain't that kind of place.
