Susan in TN Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 That happens when you cook it wrong. I don't remember why. Too much air I think? It can also happen if you use certain varieties of apples. Ida reds and one other that I can't remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I cooked. Tacos, refried beans, Spanish rice. I ate mine as a taco salad. The kitchen has been cleaned and dishwasher loaded. I am really tired now!! How do you know it was Spanish rice? Does your rice talk? That's horrific. I never got dressed today. Or really even outof bed. I did morning time in a robe and went back to bed. We're out of coffee and I'm going with it. Less coffee = more water+room in cabinet. And less coffee creamer. Points. It can also happen if you use certain varieties of apples. Ida reds and one other that I can't remember.I didn't know that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Slache, do you mean giving up coffee forever? I've done that before, but I thought why do I want to give up something I enjoy like that? No. Maybe until I'm thin. :willy_nilly: I drink too much creamer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I made chicken noodle soup for dinner, and bought some french bread to go with it. My bread baking efforts of the past haven't turned out well, but I may try again this winter. I think you should try again!! Baking bread takes some time to perfect , but it is so therapeutic and yummy!! I just pulled some fresh made French bread out of the oven. It's wonderful. You just need to get a good recipe and make it several times so you can get a feel for what the dough should feel like and what it looks like when it's risen enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73349 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I don't Nanowrimo, but a non-fiction idea tackled me. I declared a DH & DS Day (DH has been working early and late the past couple of weeks and DS has been trying to demand that he retire) and worked on it at Panera. I really needed the day off. If anything comes of it, I'll let y'all know. I got ~1500 words, but I started with the easy part. Belatedly-- Happy birthday to John, who I hope was able to recover his clothes from a certain mischievous character.

KrissiK Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 It sounds wonderful. Where did you get your recipe from?My French bread recipe is from here: armagazine.com/french-baguettes. It says it is for a bread machine, but I just use the same ingredients except I use 1 packet of yeast. I just throw all the ingredients into the bowl of my KitchenAid, put on the dough hook and let it go a while. Then I pick up the recipe ##2. It's a great, easy recipe and goes great with soup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luuknam Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Everyone must be off penning their masterpieces. No, I took Broccoli to his tournament. He got 3rd place in both forms and sparring. It took for.ev.er. Then after that we had a snack and did some shopping, and I cooked dinner, etc. What’s for dinner? I’m going to the store in a few minutes w/ no plan. Not hungry except for moah chocolate! (Read it like more cowbell!) Green beans, roasted potatoes, spam&eggs.

You probably don't want to take my advice on matters of theology, but I think it's probably less bad than to pick one by seeing which church near you is a gym or pokéstop in Pokémon Go and decide based on that. Out of the 3 churches closest to our house, one is a gym, one is a pokéstop, and the third one isn't anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 No. That’s why there are those search options. Wouldn't that count as a fallacy of some sort? If I google "satanic temples near me" I get search results (on a map) too. Though the first result is a Wesleyan church and I'm clueless about the others as well (I don't think Wesleyans are satanists... but like I said, clueless). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luuknam Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Okay, picked one. It's called Fisher's and it's nondenominational. I have no idea if it's Pokemon affiliated, but I like the name. To be clear, none of the churches I've encountered are Pokémon 'affiliated'... it's just that the company that created Pokémon Go had a previous app in which users tagged landmarks, and a lot of churches got tagged as landmarks, and then they used all* the tagged locations in that app when they created Pokémon Go. I think locations can actually request to not be gyms/Pokéstops anymore, though I'm not 100% sure. And places can pay to become a gym/Pokéstop as well, afaik, but iirc that shows up in the game as obvious that that place paid to be in the game. *Though I think that if too many tagged locations are too close together they don't include all of them.

KrissiK Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Cooking PSA: Chicken broth and vegetable broth are not interchangeable.

Tonight I made it with vegetable broth, as per the recipe.... excellent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to not get the terminology wrong, cuz I don't know anything about the game, but I got it wrong, anyway. However, I have also now learned something about the game, so it's a win.

I am sloth-like when it comes to making these kinds of changes. Ds is currently taking lessons from a teacher that I don't care for. He likes her a lot, and the three girls take violin/viola lessons from another teacher in the same studio so it might be a little awkward to quit one child and not the others. Maybe not, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
