My mom and dad always worked - the "traditional" stay-at-home mom was never a thing on this rock. OTOH, I always loved it when my mom would take me with her during the day. We'd do stuff together. My dad, not so much. Mostly he'd have me wait in the hot car while he did stuff. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8QSJbmZEoQ ==== I love that chap:) He is so nice and laid back:)) |

We had pretty good public transportation. Mom used a pull cart for the weekly shopping and walked about 6 blocks to the store. There were factories that had "mother's hours". a shift that started after school started and ended a half hour before school dismissal so they could be home for the kids. |

He also talks like he has a degree in linguistics. The funny thing is that he was born in Germany. It just goes to show that anybody can be Hawaiian. All you have to do is embrace the culture and the people. There's probably some ethnic Hawaiians that would disagree - luckily, there aren't too many of them. :) |

Around here, the greater the quantity of milk the cheaper is. One liter (quart) runs about $2.79 most places, a two litre carton is about $3.50 and 4 liters is $4.49. I find it much cheaper to buy the 4 liter bags and risk one going sour. I have been getting lactose free milk lately and it is a lot more expensive that regular. It is still cheaper per liter to get it 4 liters at a time, but I don't save as much. However, there is less risk of it going bad, so no need to use it up for the sake of using it up before it turns. |

My understand is that Aussies have more disparaging names for aborigines than the Eskimos have for snow. Is that true? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Zl1FcN_q0E |

(A human invariably that has a heavy foreign accent.) Yesterday I called up a company to request a software update. A machine answered and only one button push was required. A live person came up after a few seconds. We had a nice chat but I still don't like calling companies. I don't care for calling companies that answer with a real live person. Perhaps I'm mentally ill. :) === Or speaking normally, which they can't understand? |

And even if you get a bunch of these utilities, and have it all working well, the next major update will return you to square 1. And with win 10, updates are not optional; they can only be deferred a while, but then you are forced into updating. Win 10's main priority is to protect itself. |

OK. It's a long recipe for duck l'orange. I've only made it a few times; the first time was back in the '70's. The cookbook used is World Culinary Olympics Medal Winning Recipes from the culinary olympics 1972. 1 large 5 or so lb. duck. 1 onion cut up. 1 small carrot iced. 1/2 cup sherry. Sauce: rind and juice of 1 orange rind and juice of 1/2 lemon 1 1/2 cup demi glace (you can find a recipe for this on line; or use God forbid, use a can of canned consome'. 2 Tbsp wine vinegar 1 tsp. red currant jelly; I have used other fruit jelly; apricot jam... 1 Tbsp. butter cut up Put giblets of duck in bottom of roaster. Add onion carrot and sherry. Season duck with salt and pepper inside of cavity. Place rind of grated orange inside of cavity. Put duck on rack over giblets. Prick skin with fork. Roast at 350F abouty 2.5 hours. Prick duck skin once or twice during roasting. Prepare sauce Cut fruit rind of orange and lemon into strips; no white stuff there. Blanch for about 15 seconds and drain. Juice orange and lemon. When duck is done, remove from pan and let rest. Pour demi glace(or some such)into pan and cook over medium heat scraping bottom for the good bits. Strain into a saucepan. Mix 2 Tbsp. sugar and the vinegar in a small saucepan. Boil until you have a golden syrup. Pour into demi glace sauce. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes or so. Add orange and lemon juices, jelly(jam). Add butter stirring quickly. When sauce is smooth, add 2 Tbsp. orange liquor; I have used Grand Marnier. Season and add blanched rinds. Cut duck into pieces and pour sauce over meat. Add orange wedges. This sounds complicated. It's really not. It just has many steps. btw, when using canned consomme' instead of demi glace, thicken the consomme' to your liking with a roux. butter and flour preferred. Don't make it too thick. About 1 Tbsp. of roux per cup of consomme' Max. |
