They have a store here and I used to browse there often before the
shut-down. However, their prices are high and I have bought similar
stuff elsewhere at much lower prices.

You may have to wait a year but looks like good stuff for a craft fair.

Williams-Sonoma does far more catalog sales than walk-ins... they also
sell much better quality than Sur la table. With this virus thing a
lot more people are cooking/eating at home.
Another business that's been booming is vegetable gardening. Driving
around I see a lot more new vegetable gardens. Vegetable seeds sold
out early this year.

Priced fairly those items will sell well at a flea market.

Similar but not nearly the same quality.

A good choice... good hot, cold, or right from the can at room
temperature... and included in several recipes.

I feel the need to elaborate. Robert E. Lee was Lincoln's top man before
Virginia voted for Secession. Lincoln offered Lee Ulysses S. Grant's
job commanding the Union Army. He declined the position primarily
because of his wife's and her family's Southern sentiments and because
he felt he had to be faithful to Virginia.
 
As for boiled peanuts, either you like them or you don't. But no, you
don't eat the shells. Whoever told you that was wrong. It's no wonder
it was like eating straw. Even boiled until soft, peanut shells are
tough and stringy.

Getting good-looking salmon cooked in an air fryer is easy - all you need is a glaze and a propane torch.

Nothing non-code about it. And it's a portable hose reel, imbecile.

I wonder of the guy I emailed about a 2nd estimate for John's roof
was a sub for Old World Roofing...
 
It sure is suspicious timing, eh?

I keep olive oil on the counter in a green glass wine bottle capped

Beats me if the joke if funny or not. I only took Physics 101. The point is moot anyway, everybody knows that you can't bake bread on Jupiter. My guess is that you can bake up a storm on the moon. You don't even need yeast or baking powder. You just bake it during the lunar day in a semi-pressurized chamber. Moon bread will be the biggest trend in the future.

I'm thrilled for you. I, for one, don't want the windows open when it's
90F outside and extremely humid. It's too uncomfortable.

We each have two large mugs of strong coffee. We don't eat breakfast,
usually brunch. When we have eggs they're for dinner.

> You can smell Korean bar girls and FOB Koreans from a mile away. The smell surrounds them. My wife also smelled like this. It was a most intoxicating aroma. It's caused by the heavy amounts of garlic in kim chee that they'll eat with every meal. After my wife started eating my cooking, the smell went away. Hawaiian style kim chee won't cause this effect.
 
Is that also why Hawaiian shit don't stink?
