T-bone steak fried in very hot lard, and two eggs lightly basted in the
lard. A large mug of jasmine tea with about 2 ounces of milk. Only
about 3 grams of carb.

Part of it sounds good. When I was a little kid I put milk in tea then
I found that a good tea stands on its own.

I started drinking tea when I was a kid because I did not like milk,
though I did add a little milk and sugar. Years later I had a summer
job in an alloy smelting furnace. I found that the only think that
really quenched my thirst was clear tea... no milk and no sugar. Good
tea is so good it does not need any milk or cream.

As with all food and drink, it's a personal preference

Sure. That's your personal preference.

I agree, I prefer my tea with nothing in it, aside from tea leaves and
hot water. Many likely don't share my preference, but I think that good
coffee should be the same way. I put no milk or sugar in it.

when i was making tea regularly i liked loose leaf teas
the best and didn't have a strainer or tea ball, i just
called it swamp water because that is what i looked like
with all the twigs and leaves floating around.

i liked it plain without sugar or milk.

i've pretty much given up drinking tea and coffee due
to not wanting caffiene and also mostly now drink water
or milk and once in a while a hot chocolate, but not too
often.

His wisdom was far more than food. It's impossible for one man to claim
knowledge of everything. but Popeye made that claim, and came close. He
was a true polymath.

If Popeye's brain hadn't died, I'm sure trump would kick elon muskrat

He wasn't far off, they add cellulose and wax to many shredded cheeses
to keep them from sticking. I won't buy that junk, only actual blocks
of cheese.

I wonder how the old guy's faring these days. He probably doesn't even

property for just the two of them, especially at his age.

Oh well, I hope he's hanging in there someplace.

I hear you, I'm out in the countryside here and thinking
about how much longer I want to keep up with it all, but
it will be tough to move back into town after living

I'll likely be carrying a pistol then, like so many
others are now.

I can still do it but I don't know for how many years and there are so
many things to do that are more fun.

I guess it's better to sell while you're still able to maintain it
than after you've had to let it go due to your age.

a bit, but you're right, it's inevitable.

I've cleaned up the worst. Now it's a matter of maintaining what grows
back at crazy speed. We'll move in a month or 2 max and then keep
coming back here for maintenance. It had better sell quickly.

I don't think so, at least not in the countryside. With 6.5 acres it's
way too small for a commercial farm, but great for a couple of horses
or a hobby farm.

How far from town are you? I only ask because a place like that
would sell fast here if the price is fair and it's not a shithole.

I'm about 11 miles out of town here.

The house is plain but brick, but the outside's beautiful if
maintained a bit. It's 16 miles to town.

How big's your property? Someone from our area once asked me how big
our property was. I said 6.5 acres. He said "Ah, just enough to keep
the neighbours away." He had 240 acres.

I don't think so, at least not in the countryside. With 6.5 acres it's
way too small for a commercial farm, but great for a couple of horses
or a hobby farm.
How far from town are you? I only ask because a place like that
would sell fast here if the price is fair and it's not a shithole.
I'm about 11 miles out of town here.
The house is plain but brick, but the outside's beautiful if
maintained a bit. It's 16 miles to town.
How big's your property? Someone from our area once asked me how big
our property was. I said 6.5 acres. He said "Ah, just enough to keep
the neighbours away." He had 240 acres.
Three acres here, mostly farm land around me.
Can be a lot of work, depending on the kind of land.

True, only about one acre of it is lawn and the zero
turn mower makes that fairly easy to cut. The long
driveway can be a pain in the winter, I pay a guy
to plow it for me.

Good luck with your home sale.

Ahahahaha ... I still remember Popeye claiming that the grocery store
sold him rat turds instead of peppercorns
I think he said that peppercorns were swept up off the floor with rat
turds and packaged.
Post by gm
Yup, and The Old Sailor also claimed that shredded cheese consisted of
the remnants of cheese that were swept up from the floor...
He wasn't far off, they add cellulose and wax to many shredded cheeses
to keep them from sticking.  I won't buy that junk, only actual blocks
of cheese.
I wonder how the old guy's faring these days.  He probably doesn't even
remember RFC.
He doesn't, Jill once said after talking to his wife.
I always wondered why that guy wanted to maintain so much
property for just the two of them, especially at his age.
PRIDE.

Privacy.

It's Yiddish, apparently. He meant bosomy. I believe he even had an
unhealthy interest in cows.

It's one of the words that Yiddish borrowed from German. Technically,
it means "juicy", although it has come to mean "pleasingly plump".

Yes. The German word is spelled saftig, and pronounced zaftig.

It was ***@noneya.invalid who wrote zaftfag. Typical.

But Hank! When he says 'mainland' he means 'America'.

Or does 'absolute' not mean 'ultimate'? We need
the US supreme court to make a ruling.

Pen is prolly short for peni..oh never mind.
He had an extensive collection of fountain pens in the past. I rarely
write anything these days but used to enjoy using a good fountain pen
and nice ink colors.

Yes, he collected fountain pens. He also once told me he collected
unusual book-ends. I have a couple of small green marble book-ends with
brass unicorns on the outside; he said he'd love to have them! Sorry,
dude...

BTW, his wife is having the kitchen remodeled. No more yellow laminate
counter tops.

Pens are good. I wanted to order some pens at PenIsland.net. I had the
darnedest time trying to order stuff. It took me a while to figure out
it was a fake site. They're probably trying to sell the domain name for
a gay porn site. I'm surprised that uncle didn't buy it.

The site is just another mystery of the weird and wacky internet.

Dinner tonight was some burgers. I added some green bottle cheese to the

be clean, free of parasites and pass all standard customs inspections.

Dinner tonight was some burgers. I added some green bottle cheese to the
hamburger. Cellulose is packed with umami and it doesn't clump. Modern
food is amazing.
And cheap too.

Gravy up!
I've been working on cabbage rolls. They are packed with flavor. Umami
is maximized with the addition of oyster sauce, Korean beef bullion
powder, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow sawdust. I'll probably add some
rice that's starting to decompose. Hee hee.

He wasn't far off, they add cellulose and wax to many shredded cheeses
to keep them from sticking.  I won't buy that junk, only actual blocks

Cellulose and wax won't hurt you, but it does seem foolish to pay
cheese prices for sawdust.

I doubt that the "sawdust" accounts for any more than a tiny portion of

Sargento brand shredded cheese isn't bad. But yes, it contains powdered
cellulose:

"Cheddar Cheese [Pasteurized Milk, Cheese Culture, Salt, Enzymes,
Annatto (Vegetable Color)], Potato Starch and Powdered Cellulose (TO

I could say the same about wood, drywall dust, etc. The difference is
that I'm not paying to have it in my food. I was surprised to see Bryan
justifying pre-shreaded cheese, considering that he makes his own pasta
every time. It's truly not difficult to take a block of cheese to a box
grater. Same as a potato for hash browns. Why buy frozen shredded potato?

In my case, while I use a cheese plane and then break up cheese,
potatoes are hard for me to shred. It's disability from the spinal
injury and it's been hard on me the last 3 weeks. Right hand not
working too well and doesn't like doing anything that has to raise over
my waist (can, but get random sharp pains and drop stuff a lot with the
right hand.

Don't worry, it will come back but it takes 6 weeks and only 3 weeks
into it. Happens every few years.

Are there no VA hospitals near you? I think you may be entitled to
treatment for all the ailments you have. If you served more than 3 years.

Or do you just wish to garner pity for an old sailor?

Our goobermint seems to feel that depreciating humans like equipment is
not a problem for them.

Ever wonder why domestic enlistments are down and (as with Rome) we're
offering citizenship to immigrants who will fight for us.

Carol and her hubby gave it a full career - does it seem they're being
treated as valued former team members?

We can mouth "thanks for your service" until the next war starts, but it
won't begin to make up for the crappy VA services and only moderate
retirement benefits.

You'd almost think they need to unionize - oh nos!

tea is so good it does not need any milk or cream.
I agree, I prefer my tea with nothing in it, aside from tea leaves and
hot water.  Many likely don't share my preference, but I think that good
coffee should be the same way.  I put no milk or sugar in it.

Post by ItsJoanNotJoAnn
As with all food and drink, it's a personal preference
not a rigid rule.
So I can't boldly state that tea is hot pond water?
Sure.  That's your personal preference.
Naturally, the rest of us are free to ignore your preference.

T-bone steak fried in very hot lard, and two eggs lightly basted in
the lard. A large mug of jasmine tea with about 2 ounces of milk.
Only about 3 grams of carb.
Part of it sounds good.  When I was a little kid I put milk in tea
then I found that a good tea stands on its own.
I started drinking tea when I was a kid because I did not like milk,
though I did add a little  milk and sugar. Years later I had a summer
job in an alloy smelting furnace. I found that the only think that
really quenched my thirst was clear tea... no milk and no sugar. Good

I do put milk in coffee on the rare times I drink it. Milk makes it

a bag in tepid water.

I used to buy the best coffee I could find, used the best equipment to
brew it, never drank it. My wife enjoyed it.

The last time I was in the hospital the water was nowhere near hot
enough to make tea. If I had stuck my finger in the water to test it I
probably would not have bothered. One time I put the tea bag in the cup
of supposedly hot water and let it sit there while I ate what they
called a meal. By the time I finished as much of the food as I could
handle I reached for the tea. The water had not even started to change
colour.
I used to buy the best coffee I could find, used the best equipment to
brew it, never drank it.  My wife enjoyed it.
Have you tried a Nespresso? I have heard good things about them from
friends who have them. I have no problem making a pot full of coffee in
the drip machine but I have trouble making smaller amounts. My wife can
make good coffee in the French press or the espresso maker but I have
difficulty with both.

T-bone steak fried in very hot lard, and two eggs lightly basted
in the lard. A large mug of jasmine tea with about 2 ounces of
milk. Only about 3 grams of carb.
Part of it sounds good.  When I was a little kid I put milk in tea
then I found that a good tea stands on its own.
I started drinking tea when I was a kid because I did not like milk,
though I did add a little  milk and sugar. Years later I had a
summer job in an alloy smelting furnace. I found that the only think
that really quenched my thirst was clear tea... no milk and no
sugar. Good tea is so good it does not need any milk or cream.
For those of us who adore, rather than dislike milk, a little milk
can make good tea even better, and a lot of milk can do the same for
coffee.
I do put milk in coffee on the rare times I drink it.  Milk makes it
tolerable.  I won't order tea in a restaurant as it won't be good.
Just a bag in tepid water.
The last time I was in the hospital
I'm lost, Officer Dave. You've been in the hospital so many times, with
so many serious conditions. You need to preface the posts with something
like:

"When I was in the hospital for my near death 6-way cardiac bypass and
brain stent, plus liver and kidney failure, plus the clapp and
hemorrhoids .... "

This is also the truth, and proven! I avoid tea in restaurants. It is very bad,
with the exception of japan, where they did serve good tea in restaurants!

This is the truth! I have scientifically proven this!

But I *had* the lard. Actually it was probable almost half HO
sunflower, but had had a bunch of pork fat rendered into it. Cooking
lamb today, and I'm going out into that hateful weather for garlic.

The beef tallow at Wal Mart is quite good, but perhaps not necessary as
you have been making your own fat stores - a worthy task.

Anyway, you know you wanted to _make popovers_ for that lamb - so have at:

https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/popovers-recipe

This popover recipe consists of only five ingredients (flour, milk,
eggs, salt, and butter), but that simple combination makes a sublime
treat: gorgeous, light-as-air popovers with nicely soft, "eggy"
interiors and crisp, golden crusts. Mix them by hand and bake them in a
muffin tin (that's right, no special pan required). In less than 30
minutes, you'll have a dozen popovers ready to be smeared with salted
honey or maple syrup butter.
