When my father was checked, I was investigated too, as were my mother's
brothers. Dad still got his security clearance, though - I was amazed...

Why was I amazed? It was a US security clearance, and I and my uncles
were all in the UK. Also, that was in my folk club/hippie period, and I
hung out with people who didn't necessarily have the same opinions as
the US State Department.

I was investigated when my cousin had to get clearance for her position
with the USAF. Hell, I have only seen here two or three times in my
life. I don't even know her married name or where she lives now.

Well,imagine that. You have been caught in so many lies in the past that
when you come out with something outlandish like that and can't provide
a cite for it you ongoing lack of credibility leads people to assume
that it is another of your many lies.

If there are so many of them it should not be a problem for you to find
a link.

In that case it should be easier for you to find a link to prove you
aren't lying.

yes I would agree, but pesto made for basil that you grew is pretty
freakin good!!
I did however have an unfortunate food emergency. When I went to make
my pesto I did not realize that I am all out of the organic soy pasta.
So I had to put in an order to amazon and I am waiting for a fresh
case of the pasta to arrive so I can make my pesto.

for a perfect start of every morning
i need
A fresh cup of hot coffee....
 
Usually start in the microwave with about three cups of water. I heat
that up to boiling which is usually about 4 minutes, I use a thick
glass measuring cup to heat the water in the nukemaster 5000. Then I
pull it out piping hot and put in about three tbsp of ground coffee, I
am currently using Ruta Maya which is sold at costco. It is a whole
bean coffee that I keep in the freezer which is where all of your
excess coffee should be stored to ensure maximum freshness. Now I know
that some idiots have said that you should never freeze coffee because
you will get freezer burn. Well as I said they are idiots and do not
realize that roasted coffee beans contains very little water if any at
all so if you keep the beans inside a sealed container then there will
be no freezer burn.
Anyway back to my perfect start.
So while still inside the large glass measuring cup I stir my ground
beans (I grind myself and I do NOT use a burr grinder because they are
horrible and can burn your beans) then slowly pour into a french
press. I leave about 1/4 cup inside the measuring cup so as not to
pour excess floaty bits of grounds into my french press because they
are usually too small to be filtered by the press.
While in the press I add my sugar and my cinnamon then stir well. I
then put on the top then press the coffee down and pour into a glass
mug then add a tbsp of chocolate syrup and about 2 tbsp of milk. Stir
again then sit back and thoroughly enjoy the perfect cup of coffee.

Did you learn in primary school that beans and rice provide
complementary but individually incomplete amino acids, and together
get you the complete set of dietary amino acids you need?

Yes. But I attended a fairly good school. It wasn't so much 'beans and
rice' as 'grains and legumes'.
I would have learned it at home, though, if my school hadn't provided
that information.

Beans and rice provide complementary but individually incomplete amino acids, and together get me the complete set of dietary amino acids we need. I'm a nurse, I took a 3 credit hour class in Nutrition and have the textbook in my kitchen, for reference if needed.

Not me. I do love bacon but we much prefer it fresh, never frozen. So
it one of the things I never keep in the freezer.

Those precautions seem a little bit extreme. No wonder he's getting so
stressed out. Perhaps he's rather ill or rather old.
 
At the end of the article he says he's a catastrophist, which might
explain his angst and foreboding.
 
Not that I am making light of Covid but he seems to be taking it worse
than most.

Genuine refugees should be given every possible assistance and awarded re-
esettlement if required. However most self-styled "refugees" in America
are fleeing poverty not oppression, violence or fear of death. They
travel through perfectly good countries which they could settle in.

You certainly don't make it easy to guess what that might be.

I haven't bought it in years, always seemed to be pricey, yellowed
stuff lol
 
Sorry to hear the raccoons have treated the ferals badly. My mother
had four feral cats she tamed when they lived in Spain. Two would
eventually go in the house but the other two, never.
 
The cat I have now was a kitten born to a feral cat in Toronto when
they were doing their catch, spay and release programme. They let the
mum go but kept the kitten for rehoming.

It was about an inch thick and very white/translucent. If it's
yellowed, don't buy it. I would hesitate to grill because it needs to
be cooked relatively swiftly, it has a very delicate flavour. Back in
the day when it was reasonably priced I used to buy a whole baby
halibut and butter a dish, put fish in, place in 425° oven and bake
for about 15 minutes. If I saw a whole baby halibut these days guess
I would need to Brinks truck with me to pay for it :-)

Why? The corn was young corn, I just nuked it for 3 minutes in it's
wrapping. The beans were also some of the first in. I don't add
bread or spuds to it for just me as I don't particularly care for
either, if that's what you mean by spartan.

Same here, even though we are right by the sea! Used to have it

The fish sounds nice but the corn and the beans, just like that,
sounds a bit elemental to me. Corn in general, actually. I know it's
popular in the US.
