There is (or was) the KitchenAid Precise Heat Mixing Bowl.

1. Figuring out some way to cut it. 2. Cooler weather.

I still don't see how any lateral force applied to the shaft would be greater when the container is partially filled rather than full.

I have a whole, uncut, intact block of gruyere from panic buying before Covid. I'm wondering how to deal with it?

I can't envision this at all. Could you explain further? (I often spin half pints.)

I was about to click when Amazon reminded me I own a copy.

I am also a fan of McConnell's. Wish my Whole Foods had more flavors.

It was too hot to sleep, so at 5:00 am I had a bowl of Mango. So far Mango is my least favorite flavor (I have not purchased Pineapple). The underripe mango is not puréed, but rather remains in unpleasant chunks. I've made much better mango ice cream in the Creami. Plan is to stock up on Coconut and Passionfruit before the Whole Foods ice cream sale is over.

The Guanabana is fragrant but astringent. I doubt I'll buy again. I have yet to try the Mango.

My original creami came with five containers.

Does anyone know when the Whole Foods ice cream sale ends?

I first tried Coconut, Passion Fruit, and Guava. I fell in love with the Passion Fruit and coconut. The Guava was perfectly good, but I liked the other two flavors better. This evening's Whole Foods delivery brought Mango and Guanabana, as well as another pint of Passion Fruit. And Frutero's pints are actually real pints!

Yup. Dinner tonight was three bowls of ice cream. I tried Frutero for the first time and am ordering more.

Here's my Le Creuset tagine... I had to order from Europe as the larger 31 cm Le Creuset tagine was not available in North America, nor was either size tagine in Volcanique. Not to mention the 31 cm tagine in Volcanique. One simply cannot mix colors of Le Creuset. @chefmd may disagree. https://www.amazon.fr/Creuset-Tajine-émaillée-céramique-volcanique/dp/B001IKK2FY?th=1 It's been some years since I've prepared a tagine in the Le Creuset. I use the Le Creuset for strong seafood flavors such as shrimp that I don't want absorbed by my unglazed clay tagine.

I recently tried Tate's Bake Shop Chocolate Chip, purchased from Whole Foods. Not too sweet. I have to say they're good.

I shall never again...not sure never again what. How about I shall never again get out of bed. Last night during a storm I heard a crash that did not sound like thunder. I wandered around looking for broken glassware, but everything seemed fine. Eventually I went in the kitchen to fix dinner (hotdog, five nights in a row). The magnetic knife block with all its knives had fallen. The fall snapped the lid off the new citrus juicer. Maybe a good thing since my homogenizer was spared.

There is a reason Chimay sells 1.5 liter bottles.

I don't have the technology to get the wire ball stopper back in the bottle.

At the cost of CO2 cartridges I might as well buy more beer.

I thought about decanting the remains of the opened bottle into an iSi.

My vacuum stoppers work for sealing still wine. But a vacuum stopper would just pull the bubbles out of a carbonated beverage. Perhaps I should consider buying smaller bottles in the future.

I have one of that style stoppers too! I'll try it next bottle.

I was dismayed the other night when I found my previously opened bottle of Chimay ale was flat. I used a closure that was designed for Champagne bottles, but the closure didn't help with the Chimay bottle to any great extent. What kind of closure could keep beer from going flat? Consuming the entire bottle in one sitting would not be the best suggestion.

Amazon has invented a new subscription to take money away. Whole Foods deliveries normally have a service charge of $9.95 per order (plus optional tip). Now, with the new subscription of $9.95 per month, orders from Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh over $35 have no service charge. In addition, one hour delivery slots are no added cost. Plus they say subscribers get priority for slots. For anyone doing the math, if you order once per month you break even. If you order more frequently, you come out ahead. For someone like me who is dependent on kind friends to take me grocery shopping, it is a good deal. Amazon offers a one month free trial to hook you in. Meanwhile construction of the new Whole Foods store near me hurries on apace.

Alas, last I checked Neisson and La Favorite were not available around here and my stocks are running low. My mai tai recipe is actually half La Favorite and half Wray & Nephew. I only went to all Wray & Nephew when La Favorite became hard to get.
