I was skeptical when we got our toaster oven a few years ago. Fast forward: ours probably gets used daily.

Sounds good & healthy to me…except the Ranch part. Blue Cheese & Italian salad dressings have always been my faves, but I did go through a phase when Ranch was everything…because Ranch was everywhere. But that got old, and now I only use it for dipping fried appetizers. Tangent on salad...

There’s some good ideas in there, even without the recipes! That mesh dicing method is one I’ll have to consider strongly. I have a rack like that, but mine is much bigger, so I’d have to buy one. OTOH, I didn’t like his take on the ice bath. I’d be afraid of thermally shocking my pot...

Also re meal prep: keep a goodly assortment of sandwich & salad fixings on hand. I eat one or the other- or both- approximately daily. I’ve even found ways to do eggs in the toaster oven and microwave for quick use in those.

Tom Cardy is a treasure, but you need to NSFW label that.

Mod Note: The first sentence was fine; the second, not so much. You went from disagreeing into being disagreeable. Making a habit of it will get you shown the door, possibly permanently. I trust this is clear.

That’s pretty!

Another freezer trick: Buy your ingredients (esp. veggies) in largish batches. Dedicate ONE day to prep the freezable ones for future use, storing them in small containers like rolled up chubs in ziplock freezer bags.* That translates into one day of cleaning up knives, cutting boards, and...

Learn to make bigger meals and how to love* leftovers. When I was in law school, I’d typically cook 4 servings of a dinner type meal, and eat leftovers for 3 days. The casseroles, chicken or fish dishes worked out great, but doing a big pot of red beans and rice involved…unpleasant...

Chairface Chippendale’s got a gun!

Heard of it. Yes. Seen it? Never. Is it more sweet or savory?

Did egg salad sandwiches for dinner tonight, but for the first time ever, I added bacon flakes. I rarely eat those in anything, but it turned out to be a good idea. https://imgur.com/gallery/things-have-been-crazy-lately-so-simple-fare-was-on-menu-g03Siw7

I walk without lattes, so I don’t attract the Karens.

My response: “Immediately.”

That’s from The Helter and The Skelter series, isn’t it? Either Helter & Skelter: Hollywood Drift or 2 Helter 2 Skelter: The Boogaloo Towers.

She is. Her name is Jenny, and her number is (555) 867-5309. I got her number off a bathroom wall in a small neighborhood bar* where she works as a waitress. * Bill- the guy who plays piano & harmonica there on Saturday night- is pretty talented. It’s a mystery what he’s doing there.

That he could play bass.

Nah. Most are just plain vanilla bullies…or victims.
