If I saw that stoopid contraption in any kitchen I'd never eat
there... brushing raw meats and putting that brush back contaminates
the oil. For oiling meats I pour some oil on the meats and use my
hands/fingers to spread/rub in the oil... hand washing is easy... I
use my fingers to grease bakeware too. The only times I use a brush
is to baste meats while they're cooking and then that brush gets
throughly cleaned with dishwashing liquid and hot water... I like to
use those cheap throw away bare wooden handled paint brushes... when
they get raggedy I toss them in the trash, they cost pennies. I use
those cheap throw away brushes for painting metal with oil based
paint, then they go in the trash, not worth the paint thinner to
clean.... I painted my diesel tank with Rustoleum and a 25¢ 3"
brush... placed it in a plastic baggie and used it to paint the second
coat the next day, then it got trashed, baggie and brush. You can buy
a bagful of those cheapo brushes in various sizes for a couple of
dollars, very handy to have.

Nope! I'd never get up on that red clay tile roof! I'd hire someone else to!

Very wise since you're wobbly.

I don't remember screwing up a pizza crust. Your memory's playing
tricks. Anyway, let's pretend I screwed up a pizza crust. So what?

Wrong. You did screw it up and asked what went wrong.
Don't all of the sudden claim to be a bread expert here
after posting no recipes or cooking claims for years.
 
I ASSume you've been taking lessons from your wife - the real
cook.

It's any chicken noodle/vegetable soup. Either homemade
or commercial brand. Right at end of cooking, you slowly
drizzle one (or two) raw scrambled eggs into the soup
as you slowly stir it. Good stuff.
 
It thickens the soup somewhat and adds egg nutrition.
 
I plan to make some today.

Sorry, you're wrong. I made cookies recently. They became one big
cookie. Maybe that's what you're confused with.

I wouldn't call myself an expert and there are bigger experts than me
here. But I did make all our (sourdough) bread for many years.

My wife's a better cook, I'm a better bread baker.
 
Sorry about your failing memory :)

What if you added grated carrots? Would that add carrot nutrition?

Nope. I remember. Lots longer ago than your recent cookie thing.
 
It could be looked up and found but I'm not going to bother.
Maybe Steve will if he hates you enough.

You bet it does. My soups usually do have carrots either
actually in the soup, plus used in the broth that I start with.
 
My last Lima Bean Soup was heavy on the carrots.

Whatever. Fact is that I baked more breads than you painted houses :)

Did it have lima bean nutrients?

A gram is a gram is a gram whatever planet you're on. Your joke is not funny at all.

My mistake. I apologize for that. She has never eaten boiled peanuts but has heard of them. I haven't eaten a lot of things but who the heck brags about that?

That's funny. Speaking of sandwiches, coincidentally, I was waiting for
a meeting to start and we had a mini-debate on the best lettuce to use
when building sandwiches. I naturally said it depends on the filling.
 
Like, egg salad sandwich is a flexible one but butter leaf goes
great. Tuna fish goes well with romaine. Turkey/avocado and arugula/baby
spinach.
 
What say you?

I always like the crunch of iceberg lettuce with any
sandwich or salad. Other kinds are like eating grass
scraped off from the underside of your lawnmower.
 
(did I do a good Sheldon here?)

I worked one day in a town about 50 miles away.
They had a paper mill there and the wind was blowing
towards town. Very bad smell.
 
Then we went to McDonalds for lunch and even their
buns had absorbed the odor and tasted like it.
Probably the only time I wasn't happy with McDonalds food.
