Doesn't look at all appetizing, would've looked better made with
toasted coconut. I'm not a lover of pancakes but years ago I tried a
stack drizzled with Kalua, was good.
At yesterday's golf torny my wife's team (The Lefties- four left
handed golfers) won a basket of booze, she brought home a liter bottle
of Kalua, I'm tempted to make some flapjacks. I already tried some
with Crystal Palace, didn't really care for it, vodka is better with
Sprite.

TiO2 works well in paints. The world would be a duller, less colorful, place without the stuff. It's how wedding cakes get to be so brilliantly white. Most importantly, it's gluten-free and non-GMO!

I think I don't get amber alerts. It would be pointless for me
to receive one. I don't look at children. They're just not
interesting.

How often does it happen? I get two or three a year and they have
always been during waking hours. If I got one in my life during the
night I'd not complain. I bet you would feel different if it was your
grandchild that was abducted too.

We have a land line, and it's practically free as part of the Verizon
package with the smart phone and computer. My wife prefers her smart
phone as it's portable, I like the land line because i son'r nwws to
chat while I'm off somewhere and the sound is superior with a land
line and it doesn't fade out... I detest when someone calls me from
their cell phone and it keeps breaking up due to lack of signal
especially when they are driving so I just hang up. If it's
important they will call back later. Most calls I get are from a
business that's using a land line; doctor's office, pharmacy, brick
and mortar stores, etc. I don't make a lot of calls nor do I receive
a lot of calls, some weeks I don't use the phone at all. What really
pisses me off is someone sending me lenghty emails several times in a
day, my typing is not nearly good enough to converse via email.... and
most often people's emails are not very specific so I'm not going to
waste my time and energy typing several emails for clarification.

How'd you like to get one of those blaring alerts at 11:30 pm or 5:30am?
It's annoying. It's not like you are going to get up and go out looking
for the kid who is missing from some place a few hundred miles away.

We had three in about a month. One was around 11:30pm and another at
5:30am. The early morning one was a mother who failed to return her
child to the grandmother who had custody. The late night one ended
tragically. They tried to say that the found the abductor because of the
Orange Alert. That's not exactly what happened. He was found in his car
suffering from self inflicted gunshot wounds and died. The daughter's
body was found back at the house. If they had done a proper search at
the beginning the alert would not have been needed.

I don't think so. I don't object to the day time alerts. I would not
expect millions of people to be disturbed in the middle of the night. As
I pointed out, they aren't going to go out and look. They could have
sent texts without that loud blaring alert tone.>

I have a dog. I usually get a personal notification on thunder and lighting.

It's simple Dave.
Just order all the notification alert agencies that they are not to
bother you via your cell phone unless the alert specifically concerns
some danger to yourself.
Yes to tornado or nuclear fallout info but, do not bother you with
info on the little abducted kid that was last seen being driven down
the QEW towards St. Kitts.

5:30 would be fine. I wake up every day at 4.
 
But I take your point.

If only it were that simple. We can't even select which types of alerts
we want to get. I think I preferred the old phone that was not
compatible with the alerts. And, FWIW... if an alert comes out in the
middle of the night that says that kid is headed in this direction, I am
still not going to go out looking for it.

My phone's Android, I turn it over to enable the shush feature so
the phone doesn't wake me up with random notifications.

I don't like basil at all, whatever it's added to all you taste is
basil. When I prepare a fresh salad I'll add some fresh herbs but
nothing too potent, my dressing is almost always EVOO with fresh
lemon juice, s n'p, I like some bits of curly leaf parsley or a bit of
dill.

We used to have basil bushes at our condo. It looked like some Vietnamese guy was growing it. Beautiful plants. It was so green, lush, and soft that I'd feel compelled to run my hands over the leaves when I'd walk past. It would make a wonderful rustling noise when the wind blew through it.
 
The bushes and Vietnamese guy are gone. All that's left is a patch of dirt. That's the breaks but it's also a shame.

How is that crap? It might not be to your taste, but it's not crap.
 
Although I think the quantity of mushrooms is so small as to be pointless.

why is that crap? She made an accepted recipe for a casserole and
instead of using canned soup made the sauce herself.
Let's see some of the fine dining you prepare.

If they were whole button mushrooms she chopped up, that would be plenty,
especially if she made a smaller sized casserole. I'm not particularly
fond of mushrooms myself, so i generally make my tuna hotdish (casserole)
without them, or leave them sliced so I can pick them out before eating.

Besides the fact that canned fresh beans wouldn't develop the flavor
and texture (they'd turn to mush) of dried beans fresh beans sell for
a higher price when frozen. Also fresh beans have a short shelf life,
even when frozen. And keeping any foods frozen costs more, and people
simply don't buy all that many frozen beans, tons of beans would be
wasted, dried beans can keep for centuries, and when planted will
still grow just fine... beans are seeds after all. Many beans are
grown for their pods, those are sold fresh or frozen, but also canned
(green beans). Drying beans costs nothing, they are left on the vine
to dry from the sun... the pods shrivel and then harvested.

Yeah, but do you grow the mushrooms? Only then can you claim it is home
made. That's why Sheldon insists on having a basement, he made it into
a mushroom cave. Can't grow them here in the goat barn.
