    I can't remember whether I saw this here on ECF or if it was on FB, but I think it's hilarious.

    Thanks, Iffstah! I said there was no fat and no sodium but for accuracy I should have said that there are small amounts of fat in the beans and the almond milk, and a small amount of sodium in the almond milk. I don't think the almond milk added much to the flavor.... I needed to add liquid but...

    Good questions. It's not only imitation hummus, it's imitation guacamole too. It's quite tasty... I put in enough horseradish to make sure of that. It's ridiculously healthy, and the ingredients to make about 2 cups of it cost no more than a dollar.

    I freelanced a winner. Edamame is immature soy beans. I tried to eat a whole pod, shell and all. I'll bet you a dollar I never try to do that again. Although the shells are technically edible, they make corn husks seem tender. After I chewed the shell for a few minutes I spit it out. An...

    I'm like: yeah, so? because I can't even grasp it well enough to realize that it's mind-bending. Beyond "big potatoes rise to the top of the barrel during transport", things get murky for me really quickly. SOMETIMES HEAVIER OBJECTS GO TO THE TOP: HERE'S WHY On a completely wild tangent, the...

    Another thing that I've heard stated authoritatively is that when you're going to use some nic liquid that's been in the freezer, don't open the container until it's warmed to room temperature. This decreases the amount of oxygen (and humidity?... heck, I don't know... I'm just the messenger)...

    No. If I have the procedure done, it will be in the more conventional fashion. Time advantages to alternate procedures are truly inconsequential to me... I'm not in a hurry, and differences of 35 minutes in the surgeon's chair or a couple of months in post-surgical recovery are meaningless.

    Amber glass in the freezer is good, but so is clear glass, cobalt blue glass or any other color glass. That's because it's dark in there. If you don't believe it, just drill a hole into the interior of your freezer, put your eye up to the hole, close the freezer door and watch the light go out...

    I cannot seriously consider ever moving. Why? Because I have something rarer than hen's teeth: a car repair shop that I trust. I don't care whether they do it intentionally or not, but the final price is ALWAYS lower than the price they estimate up front. If it's a gimmick it is a fantastic one...

    And so, I went in to town today. 1st stop was to pick up my jaw scan that shows I have too much bone loss in my upper jaw to place new implants without first having a sinus lift/bone grafts. The place that did the scan doesn't do sinus lifts, so the purpose of me getting a copy of the scan (they...

    You can put the nic in the freezer, but you can't freeze the nic, at least not with any freezer designed for residential use. Annoying technical correction. :w00t:

    My doctor's office just called with the results of the bone density test that was done 5 days ago. It turns out I have osteoporosis in my hips and back, and they called in an Rx for alendronate, which is the generic name for Fosamax. A week ago I wasn't taking any meds at all except for...

    The Yankees haven't won 3 in a row or lost 3 in a row all season long. If they win today it'll be 3 straight wins, and they're up 4-0 at home against the Twins in the 3rd inning, on ESPN. Go Yanks!

    I don't think I'm the only one here who wouldn't be able to tell the difference between that dark nic base and nic which is brand new and crystal clear. Artistic, sadistic way to kill ants:

    Speaking of gas stations in NJ, I moved from NJ to NC in 1988. The first time I went back to NJ to visit, I had already become so accustomed to pumping my own gas that, through force of habit, I attempted to do the same in NJ. This almost caused an international incident.
