They were browned very nicely first. The appearance just didn't survive the braise. there was definitely a lack of tomato paste.

Still waiting on the healthcare plan.

If I find out someone abused a board like that then I'd be obligated to put them on the no buy list. I get irked when I find out people use them as display pieces and don't actually use them.

Then you have evaluated the situation and have made an informed decision about the options.

And what if they take your ID, claim you aren't a citizen so you don't get due process and then they deport you to a foreign prison?

You can only use proportional force to defend yourself under stand your ground laws. If you stab someone that is only using their body parts then you go to jail. Will a jury convict? It will take a year or two to find out.

If you stand your ground you still go to jail. Even if you are released you still got more inconvenienced than them.

As a white person I'm at minimal risk from them. But in order to stand your ground for another person they must have a legal right to be where they are. And if they are, in fact, not legally here, then bad things happen to you.

It's 2025. America. You see these men on the street.

If you assume they are going to rob a bank dial 911.

If you assume they are going to lynch someone dial 911.

If you assume they are going to kidnap someone dial 911.

If you assume they are law enforcement then get your eyes checked. They aren't wearing any identifying uniform, no insignia, no badges.

If you assume they are impersonating law enforcement then dial 911 and get your eyes checked.

Crap. I knew I was forgetting something in that salad

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

No idea. Between chicken and 8 ounces of feta this is probably the most expensive thing I've made in a while that isn't steak.

 

The last time I made a Greek salad I got the urge to blend feta and Greek dressing together for a wing dip.

So that's tonight's dinner.

 

In 2021 I turned 7.5 pounds of pork roast into canned seasoned pork with the idea that I could heat it, drain off the juice and wrap it in a tortilla. They were tasty. Today I used the last of them. But I wanted to test out making tortillas with a different flour than I normally use so as a backup I made rice. Tortillas have some scratch made chili powder for color and flavor. Rice is turkey stock instead of water. I think I like this better because I get to keep all the juice.

 

What do you do when you get handed free Yukon potatoes and lamb shoulder shank? You buy a bottle of red wine and spend three hours braising.

I used a recipe from Allrecipes and would not recommend it. It lacked the depth and color this should have had. Still good but definitely would have failed in a cooking school.

Cost per person: $2, mostly cheap wine and onion, a little for homemade beef stock I canned a while back. Can you order it anywhere? Yes Cost per person if you paid for everything: $17

 

Didn't have any cucumber but still made a ziki sauce anyway. Didn't have any parsley either. So this meal is way more beige than I would have liked. But it was flavorful.

My cost per person was like $1 Can you order this anywhere? Yes. And it will probably be much better. But this was still really good. Cost per person if you had to buy everything: probably close to 7.50.

 

Fresh baked bread, fajita seasoned pork steak, black pepper corn white cheddar. My wife likes sad limp fries and we picked up a free bag of Yukon potatoes today and they make the saddest fries so that's a win for her.

Cost per person: $1 Can you order this anywhere? Yes but no. The bread will be soft and the fries will be crisp. Cost if you paid for everything? $4.5

 

This one should be really easy to figure out.
