Yeah, when I make it for Thanksgiving, I make it the night before and it's usually served room temp. Because of time and how busy and hectic everything is
But warm apple pie is the absolute bomb. If microwaved not long at all, like 15 seconds. But warmed in a hot oven (if making something else) or like a minute in the air fryer.
But I also eat it room temp or cold. It doesn't usually last long enough as leftovers to need to be refrigerated.
I have two favorite Thanksgiving pies. Apple pie (especially warmed up later with a scoop of vanilla ice cream) And a chocolate pie my mom used to make with flaky crust and real whipped cream on top.
Yeah, after my mom told me about having to use the pee can at night to avoid going to the outhouse when visiting her mountain relatives...
I just can't hear people say pee can pie without remembering her obviously very visercal memory of realizing what she had to do.
Her parents and her lived in a house with indoor plumbing in the "city" so it was a bit of culture shock. And her storytelling implanted a core memory for me.
The reasons are not irrelevant to the question being asked though. Vegan for health reasons? Sure the question is irrelevant if you get sick from any animal products. You aren't going to eat them. Same way celiac avoids gluten.
Vegan for ethical reasons? Then the question is very relevant. Is it ethical to have a pet cat? They are carnivores and will suffer and die on the wrong food. No pets at all would be most ethical. Are you concerned about mass farming of vegetables? If machinery is used, field mice and such are getting killed to harvest your vegan diet. Are you concerned about human trafficking of migrant workers or just farmed animals? If a bear kills a deer in your yard in Montana, eats half and fucks off, is it ethical for you to eat the rest? You had no hand in it's death and suffering. You'll have to do something with the carcass or you'll have more predators in your yard. Are you only eating locally grown, in season fruits and vegetables, hand harvested by fairly paid workers?
If ethics is the reason, it's fully legitimate to debate and figure out where your personal line is drawn. We live in an imperfect world and there's no perfect solution.
You made me literally laugh out loud. Thank you
She's been doing a rehabilitation slash apology tour. Going on air with CNN and the show The View.
Toning down the crazy, amping up the support of survivors, calling out hypocritical actions and words in her party. She's been saying things like "I follow Jesus, not DjT/maga/Q/whatever"
She's been getting tons of absolute critics saying, "I can't believe I agree with MTG!"
She's plotting something and needs the middle and rational to see her as viable for whatever it is.
She's savvy. Maybe she's a true believer in Q, maybe not. But I'd bet a shiny nickel she's doing all this for a reason. And not because she's afraid for her life. She has a plan in motion.
Also, love this one! I should get a framed version.
No, I get it. But everything is hard to fix until you know how to do it.
To me, This is about owning things you or someone else can repair with readily available parts. The problem now is remote bricking of purchases by the manufacturer through the internet. And things so cheaply made, the parts either don't exist or the too much of it broke. Or having to pay subscriptions for the privilege to use the things you bought.
It's just that if you have a electronics nerd friend or curiosity, there's a lot of basic electronics that can be repaired with incredibly cheap parts.
For example, if your microwave completely dies, it's probably a common $0.10 fuse. It's not on the circuit board but it's technically part of the electronics. You have to be careful to not touch the capacitors. But watch a video and you've brought something dead back to life.
If you don't trust yourself, call that friend that loves that kind of stuff, share a pizza and avoid buying a new microwave that spies on you.
No flared base... hopefully it is just a cucumber...
My husband loves building elecronics. And there's a lot of cool low-tech tech. I feel like basic circuit board stuff should be allowed, as it can be easy to repair if you know how. Just have the schematics available.
The problem for me is when it needs an Internet connection for remote access on top of a lot of flimsy parts that wear out too quickly.
Just can't branch out into vacuums. Unless sold as the Suckless Sux-a-lot
