Bartimaeus Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 That's stupid. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Guard Dog Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 The US Marine Corps is like an old girlfriend from long ago. (...) But still, when her birthday rolls around you can't help but raise a toast to her. Do... people actually do that? With their exes, I mean? Well, I was really just trying to be poetic. But to tell the truth when my ex-wife and I split up I hated her with a passion. But a few years later I had a bad car accident and nearly checked out during and after. After that we spoke and made peace. I haven't spoken to her since and she's married to someone else now anyway. But I do remember the good times more than the bad. As for the toast, there is not bad reason to have a drink. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell

LadyCrimson Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Today I watched more JunsKitchen videos (along with Rachel and Jun videos). Every time I watch people who are decent/good with a kitchen knife - the cutting food, not just cleaning rust - I get just a little bit jealous. They make it look so easy.

injurai Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 I love Jun's kitchen. I honestly don't think fluent cooking is all that hard if you have the equipment and spend a bit of time picking up some methods. The most important thing is having a really sharp knife, it literally makes things trivial.
Gromnir Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Today I watched more JunsKitchen videos (along with Rachel and Jun videos). Every time I watch people who are decent/good with a kitchen knife - the cutting food, not just cleaning rust - I get just a little bit jealous. They make it look so easy. Pffft. video for a home chef, elite knife skills are useful but hardly essential. sure, prep time is significant increased if you are clumsy with a knife, but is hardly a real limitation. make certain your steel is sharp. more important, plan ahead and make certain you do all possible prep work in advance o' applying heat to anything. e.g. pre-measure out spices and quantities o' ingredients. we do a fair amount o' cooking but we almost never watch cooking shows. 'bout a year ago we saw ina garten's (sp?) show for the first time. not particular great knife skills. am being generous. we current got partial paralysis in our left hand/arm and our overall knife skills is far better than she displayed. with her rather mundane (at best) knife skills, she is nevertheless making buckets o' money for her cooking skills. annoyingly valid bit o' pith: success is 90% preparation and 10% perspiration. cooking is no different than most craftsmanship. don't simple read a recipe ahead o' time, but plan. be willing to invest time in preparation so you can then focus on actual cooking. doesn't much matter if you can expert fine chop 10 onions in two minutes or not if you is cooking at home and can afford to spend a bit more time on prep. HA! Good Fun! ps alternative: you can do as our sister did and avoid cooking altogether-- baking only. can be a fine baker with pretty much 0 knife skills.

Gromnir Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Sorry to hear about your condition, Gromnir. Hopefully it is temporary? not temp. 'course is also not a particular big deal for us at this stage. type slower and riding a bike is a bit more dangerous with only one good hand/arm. takes a bit longer to prepare meals. no more visits to batting cages. etc. mostly minor inconveniences.

Bartimaeus Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 How so? I'm on 52.0.2 with auto-updating off for plugin compatibility reasons. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

injurai Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Firefox updated and now everything is garbage. :/ There could be some bugs or issues with a particular target build. But in the grander scheme this is factually wrong. I've been following the development of this update very closely, and it's really nothing short of amazing. If you are having issues, I'd recommend sticking things out. Maybe using an older version for the time being. Btw the newest version is 57.
LadyCrimson Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Judging from the huge "members online" list, I'm guessing something big is going on today. Game beta? Today I ran out of my homemade chicken+chicken liver mix and when I tried giving Kitty some Fancy Feast to tide him over, he tried to bury the dish and gave me this dirty look. I guess I better hoof it to the store and do some cooking before I sit down to check out FFXV Comrades. “Things are as they are.

Bartimaeus Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Yeah, as Gfted said above. So the thing I'm wondering is, who the heck scrolls down past the 2 dozen game-specific subforums to see who's online anyhow? Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.
