Welcome!

Rob... my wife is gluten free, hence no flour. For Mexican, just add some finely chopped peppers and shredded cheese to the above. The sugar in ours doesn't make it sweet like Jiffy mix. I usually give cornbread a good dousing with honey or molasses so a little sugar in the mix doesn't wag the needle. Best cornbread memories I have are of my grandmother's vegetable soup at Christmas. Pretty big family on her side so there would be 25-30 of us. She'd make a huge stock pot of vegetable soup for dinner. She grew up in the depression so her soup was really, really thin. But that didn't matter because there was plenty of cornbread to crumble in your bowl, and another piece with some molasses for dessert. She passed away 8 or 10 years ago, and the big family meals went with her. Good memories.

10" cast iron skillet, oven at 425F. 1.5 cup buttermilk or whole milk 2 eggs, 2 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/4 cup melted butter 2 cups fresh ground corn meal Melt the butter in the skillet on the stove top, which also warms and greases the skillet. Mix everything except the corn meal and butter. Then add the corn meal, then the butter. Pour into the skillet and bake for 30 mins or until its done in the middle. Gluten free. And yes, we have a grinder and make our own cornmeal.

The courts largely consider motorcyclists 2nd class citizens. There are plenty of instances where drivers got minimal penalties where a rider was hurt or killed. I've never understood the precedent, but it exists.

Yes, I love the red hot on Italian stuff as well. I'll look for the jerk seasoning

10 large habenero peppers.....

I have done that very thing a couple times. Traffic jam when it's very hot out and I started to overheat. One of those I turned around and went backwards between the cars because that's where the closest crossover was. I'll take a citation over heat stroke every time. I agree that the shoulder is a high likelihood of a puncture, so I'd rather go between the cars. Filtering would be ugly for a while until drivers get used to it and realize it benefits them as well. A certain percentage will never get it.

What Jerk seasoning do you guys like? I don't mind if it's spicy but, not too spicy for the rest of my family.

Predator generators are generally well regarded. I know several people with one who are happy. I also see them commonly on food trucks.

How many of these come in sizes other than huge? I don't have the biggest hands so most work gloves are big and I have no dexterity with them. I can't pick up a pen to write something without shedding the gloves.

Marinading takes more forethought than i can usually manage, but i like the Allegro brand marinades, very savory. Be aware the bottles do not have any sort of restriction in the lid, so it comes out really fast. My quick and easy thing is just Italian salad dressing. Slice breasts into tenders, brush on some Italian dressing and grill. My family likes that pretty well.

Yep. I generally tip about 20% on the total less tax. The restaurant isn't providing the services the tax pays for, so I don't consider it when I tip. As for not tipping cashier type places.... the cost is passed to the customer either way. I just hope it really does go to the employees. I've heard that about the Sunday lunch crowd from more than enough people to believe it. I've never understood it, but it is what it is. Sad but true. About a year ago my wife was asking why my credit card bills had gone up. We'd started having lunch out with her family every Sunday. $80 4x per month = $320/month. Not sustainable and I'd rather cook anyway. We still eat out more than we should but it's hard with our busy life.

Spent a couple hours this afternoon helping a neighbor cut up another neighbor's cypress tree that came down. It was really big, probably 2ft across at the base. A minor miracle, it landed on their fence but didn't hurt it. It was laying across the gate and didn't even bend the hinges.

I'm married with kids and I work for a living do my primary hobby is sleeping. When I'm not doing that.... I like to ride my motorcycle, play guitar, ride my bicycle, coach my kids sports teams, and I dabble in photography. I also do most of my vehicle maintenance.... spent most of yesterday helping a buddy try to get the big block in his truck running. It's got carb issues we weren't able to solve. I'd like to think I still shoot and collect guns, but there's not much time or money for that these days.

Credit card companies already categorize and track all your purchases. They provide it as a service. That data has been able to be subpoenaed and used as evidence for a long time. This is nothing new.

I've only ever used a small adjustable wrench and plucked them like a guitar string to check tension. I'd also certainly expect the new wheel to be ready to install as received. That sprocket is looks a bicycle part. Theres not much to it. I guess the bike is pretty light.

Lots of good ideas. I'll add trying a spring loaded center punch. That plus some penetrating oil might help pop that tip loose.

Welcome!

No, I don't intend to harvest the peas. They get cut down while they're flowering and before they make pea pods. The leaves are edible, but I'm not going to bother with that. They're supposed to add nitrogen back into the soil, natural fertilizer.

Seems the package was right. They look quite happy now with this warm weather. One of the storms last fall destroyed my kids playset. I got it demolished and hauled off, and my wife has decided I should build her a small greenhouse make from recycled windows and doors in that spot. Anyone done that before? Lots of plans and pictures on the web. The playset originally came with a tarp roof. It didn't last long so I built a frame and used some plastic roofing panels from Home Depot. I went to significant trouble to save the roof when I demolished the playset, but my boys decided it made a good backstop for their bb guns and shot it full of holes.

To Greg's point.... The technique seems solid but the unnecessary potty mouth is a definite turn-off. I get the persona thing, but expanding his vocabulary would likely improve his business.

Run the stove (or anyting else) while you try to get the water heater going. The additional gas flow will help purge the line. It can be flakey trying to get the line purged. If you've got a gas grill or space heater, you could connect the water heater line to the grill/heater and use it to purge the line. It's very unlikely they've filled it with the wrong type of gas. The fittings are different on the lines for that reason.

A strop is what takes it over the top. Be patient the first few times you sharpen a blade. If it says it's a 15 deg edge, your system might have a slightly different version of 15 deg so it may take an extra round or 3 to reshape the edge to match your sharpener.

Yep. My parents' bank killed off my Dad many years ago. It was rather a hassle to bring him back to life.
