    @Shelby congratulations on those CatFish !
  8. I thnk there is a Wendy's GB thread so ...... a set of coupons arrived w my weekly circulars there is one near buy I tried the Dave's single w cheese , and it was not offensive but I had a coupon for a chicken sand. spicy or hones-sty;le I got the https://menu.wendys.com/en_US/product/spicy-chicken-sandwich/ deux. W opens in my area at 10:00. no breakfast it seems I went at 10:30 as I was on the way past. I went inside to do some 'scoping. one set of people were just leaving place was clean , and the person who took my order friendly I got my CkSand's w extra tomato I was surprised in several ways : the sandwich was piping hot , crispy ( its fried ) and not greasy or oily. the portions were quit3e generous and it was indeed spicy. I liked it in the sense that if I was out and about and hungry and had only the usual fast-food. I get this. it arrived very quietly but could not have been sitting under a heating lamp. as it was so crispy. if a coupon comes your way , give it a try. it is spicy keep that in mind. P.S.: I went to the trouble of filling out their survey On-Line , as I was curious. using my receipt , they want me to come back in 30 days for another free CkSand. I might do that !

    @liamsaunt that watermelon ' tub ' looks both refreshing and delicious !
  10. i had an issue w planter on my balcony finest tomatoes vis the 6th floor : facing south , no bugs etc in 5 gallon buckets the issue for my area was that the buckets were on the balcony's ledge if you will they might have fallen off and hurt someone I built a plank ' shelf ' next to the balcony's ' ledge ' so the buckets were 1 foot be neigh the ledge that was a fine. tomatoes didn't care enough to argue w me. ask Id say ' ledge = the railing to keep you from falling.
  11. the points were made by Waverly Root , not by me.; The books https://www.amazon.com/Food-France-Waverley-Root/dp/0679738975 https://www.amazon.com/Food-Italy-Waverley-Root/dp/0679738967/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2/131-8559044-3212828?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=0679738967&pd_rd_r=60c4c55d-a7dd-11e9-b724-6d396220776d&pd_rd_w=ikRZs&pd_rd_wg=QAmG9&pf_rd_p=a2006322-0bc0-4db9-a08e-d168c18ce6f0&pf_rd_r=FSHVQVXTAK408Q7RARKJ&psc=1&refRID=FSHVQVXTAK408Q7RARKJ the books are well worth redoing , but very dated on local food recommendations etc as i think they were initially published in the very late or early '60 I lived in Spain for two years , and in France for two years. some travel in Italy but not much I can tell you in the '60's in Spain you would rarely see butter , as it was expensive. and in France in a sillier time frame , butter in a finished sauce was common , as were various types of rillettes , pork , duck , goose in many parts of the country although its my impression that rillettes originated in Tours. and olive oil was used all over France for vinanigrette's did not mean to annoy anyone by my comments. I still feel France , back when , gained a breadth of flavor by making more use of these fats than other mediterranean countries .
  12. fine article. thank you for posting the link. for a long time , in the France / Spain / Italy triangle all agrarian based France had one advantage over Spain and Italy : it had three types of fat to work with Butter , Olive oil , Lard. and these fats made French cooking strand out. ref: Waverly Root : The Food of France. WR extremely fond of Italian Food , " the Food of Italy " but pointed out that the three fats made French food overall more complex. times change . food becomes processes and mass produced. and cheaper “But isn’t the point to taste the chicken?” Furious and foreign, I replied: “No! It’s just the opposite! Cooking is about messing with the chicken! Cooking is about adding flavour!” Here was the rub between French culinary conservatism and the way we in Britain and America have magpied ingredients from all over the world and made national favourites out of hybrid curries and Tex-Mex. if the chicken is from Bresse , Id say taste the chicken. if the chicken is from Perdue or Tyson go Tex-Mex

  15. @weinoo It'll be nice to have a water reservoir that's not all green with algae - at least for a little while! keep the old reservoir take the cap off and keep it of course then get a wonderful brush and deal w the algrea in the old water container or get a bit of beach , full strength w some hot water put that in the old reservoir and while hot put your palm over the top and Shake , Shake , Shake. the drain , and let the rest of the bleach in container evaporate. you might rise the container after its dry but use that cover your water container w a towel tea or not so no sunlight gets in the old container no more algae. seee ?
  16. @weinoo a bit sad for Your Girl consider keeping all the ' removables " drip pan , grates , crumb master ie anything you can rip out of it and use those sparkling clean in the new CSO why ? well why not ? you now have Pristine Spares !
