  1. https://techcrunch.com/2018/07/02/a-bigger-amazon-prime-day-2018-arrives-july-16-with-more-deals-devices-and-longer-hours/ this is just a smoke screen or possible Smoke and Mirrors to unload third rate A's electronics so you can be tethered for Life. and I don't mind.
  2. the carving is extraordinary.
  3. I think they have an entire closet of Potables.
  4. these are nice : maybe you can find one 1/2 the size w a Maple Leaf on it ? unfortunately the U-Haul " GTO - Sport " I posted on the Islands blog a long long time ago has been discountinued I think. the back end reminds me of a Corvette that's nice check your local Thrift Store you never know always looking forward to this Blog my favorite. and all blogs are favorites of a sort.
  5. I agree 1/2 isn with @kayb but I use parchment paper the brown stuff not the white. the brown stuff seems to be much more ' no - stick ' https://www.target.com/p/if-you-care-174-unbleached-chlorine-free-parchment-baking-paper-70-sq-ft/-/A-51989374 I just hand wash , sometimes w a nylon scrubbie some time ago I had baked on black stuff I put that in the CSO while doing a steam clean I was amazed the crud just floated off. @JoNorvelleWalker nice tip on the 300 / 30 Ill have to give that a go sometime. I agree on the marinade => lack of crispness try a few minutes on steam broil . which might help but stay close and keep your eyes peeled.

    @ProfessionalHobbit disconnect your smoke alarm , temporarily. pan '-fry-saute ' broiled burgers are about as bad as you can get not enough heat to get a crust and a fairly rare interior should you broil as an only option you will never make a burger again so there is that to think about , good or bad.

    Dinner 2018

    as many of us know , its been hot recently and will be for several more days. No AC here , by choice so ... pre-heat wave I iPot'd two baskets of red bliss potatoes , cooled and refrigerated. placed a couple of decent avocado's in the refrig to retard ripening so last night this is what I managed : nothing chef-ey here potatoes and avocado ( Im a scooper , not a slicer ) cold. no energy for making potato salad , which I make ' fresh ' from refrigerator ingredients each time , rather than make larger quantities for several days and refrig. TJ's Kalamata Olive oil ( a fav ) salt and Penzey's Fox point seasoning https://www.penzeys.com/online-catalog/fox-point-seasoning/c-24/p-393/pd-s oddly very tasty and hit thee spot.

    Dinner 2018

    @dcarch very interesting idea. I grew up in CA and ripe melons were the norm and very easy to obtain here in N.E. : rare as hens teeth , except for a spurt in the summer of about 1 week. most are shipped un-ripe Im wondering how other melons , smaller in size , and ' Market Un-Ripe ' might fare esp cantaloupe , honey dew , and my all time favorite when ripe : galia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galia_melon
  9. Yah I too noted the seals . everything about that presentation suggested TopNotch
  10. Wow ! Johnny Iuzzuni doesn't mess around of course I know nothing about those chocolates but the presentation is First Rate !
  11. Hot Hot Hot
  12. its the heat then. actually , in N.J.
  13. OK I have no idea what your post about B.S. was about.
  14. Well perhaps the Heat or not I missed it
  15. @Anna N fine ref. thanks
  16. @Barrytm Oooooo Oooooooooo you have a Combi ? I do wish you might post about it w many .jpg's I don't really Lust after a Combi I do have a CSO and one on reserve so Im fine do you know anyone at Miele ? if you do they need to get to work Now in this https://www.yaleappliance.com/Ranges/Miele/Induction-HR1622I.aspx w a reservior
  17. @DianaB very very nice I do like this : "" having reached a stage in life where we are trying to reduce the amount of things we own rather than add more "" Would it be possible to post a .jpg or two ? way back when on the budget I had I purchased two blue LC's sauce pans w lids one at a time. I sued them Foreever from Crate and Barrel when they were quote new and posted on a blackboard which ships were due from where and what the cargo was. until I wast fortunate to be in France in mid 80's when the FF was more or less ' cheap ' I came home w some very fine heavy copper pots and these were saved , but retired. Ive brought them out will do something w the handles vis IKEA so you did the right thing pics are always nice cheers on your find.
  18. @Edward Dekker Nice on the Lodge L2SP3 2-Quart Serving Pot the question the is : What can I buy at Amazon for $ 0.01 ? but more importantly what might this do for me that the other Lodge items i have that fit in the CSO ? and yes when it begins to Snow Hard Here [ed.: 96 F 48 % H outside , 80 F 72 H inside I don't choose to have AC ] I will be getting a few new items from DARTO I do have this : cheers
  19. another large thank-you for including us on your trip. Looking forward to pics of Zeus when you get home.
  20. I also have a Back-Up CSO Sooo you say you have three ? quite nice. consider a Perfectly Aged Brie Toasty some time. CSO'd The Heavens will part and the Sun will Shine [ed.: on a cold day , not just this week ]
  21. @chefmd always nice to fine a Brie Brother or Sister. would you have a CSO w 2 umamis 'high' one can take the CSo outside perhaps and make a Killer Toastie keep that in mind like the candle BTW that bad ?
  22. if you have not been to SS Id try it if the line was not too long , or you go on the later side of lunch w a shorter line. no fries , unless they are a lot better in NYC than BOS.
  23. ShakeShack " smoke-shack " https://www.shakeshack.com/food-and-drink/ is a decent burger ask for it med-rare to as rare as legal ignore the fries terrible. Id not wait in a vary long line. 'Burgs had no lines. NYC probably , but have not gone to one there
  24. BezosBot matches prices. the HomeDepot in the earlier case of 237 USD it now 299 as noted Amazon still 237.
  25. that's 175 USD ! wow ! BTW : BB-USA no longer caries the CSO maybe they are discontinuing it mort go the boarder ?
