Re: Culinary Hot Takes

Feel like green bell peppers would overwhelm everything else going on in breakfast gravy the same way they overwhelm everything else they get included in. "Foods/flavors that overtake all others" would be a good topic. I don't like when maple syrup is added to anything that isn't meant to...

On one of our family vacations, my wife and I were in the kitchen chatting with my BIL. My nephew ran in the room and did a slide similar to the one Tom Cruise did in Risky Business. My BIL points and yells "TOM CRUISE! ALL THE RIGHT MOVES!" which since 2019 has been an inside joke between...

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random

Yeah, rumors are starting to fly around about the school telling the kids or not. They are literally getting out of school right now, and we haven't received an actual e-mail from the school yet, so I hope they didn't tell the kids without telling us they told them.
