I keep thinking someone should do a top 10 list of “Reasons for the TP shortage at your store”. # 10 is ‘a shipping error.’ #1 is ‘”Someone” doesn’t like your a—’

That is good, he deserves some credit. The attacks against him on Twitter are outrageous

I see they’re (the chest freezers) are still on backorder, at our area Lowes.

We’re trying to empty one of our freezers’ areas (by using up contents) for fish/hunting goodies.

I know...I wonder if half of the twitter twits, constantly berating POTUS aren’t bots.

They tend to mostly post memes or derogatory comments, rather than actual facts, or sourced links.

Get a pressure canner and pressure can your meat.

I had some old venison in my freezer that was starting to freezer burn so I pressure canned it and it looked and smelled perfect.

I’ve been pressure canning meat for years now and it’s a terrific way to preserve meat. They you are also not dependent on the electricity supply and having to worry about losing a freezer full of food should the power system go down for any appreciable time.

Now granted, some stuff is not pressure can-able. Now way to pressure can a porterhouse that you want to grill. But it’s perfect for all those recipes that call for stew meat.

And food is food.

I watched on OANN.

Probably the only news outlet to carry it :(

It will probably be on youtube, soon.

Here’s an NBC link...

So do you believe infection rates inside buildings that run central AC will not slow down once the weather gets warmer?

It makes sense strictly from a *no new source of fresh air* stand point. It would just recirculate already contaminated air.

Plus you tend to be in much closer proximity to people indoors.

Looks into turkey.

Most people think of it as a Thanksgiving/Christmas kind of food.

I went grocery shopping on Mar 13 just after President Trump announced the shut down, and the stores were packed and the meat dept was wiped out of chicken, but there was still some turkey left.

I bought on turkey and left the turkey breast.

So I’ll cook it, make soup out of the carcass, then pressure can the soup which is basically meat and broth. I always add the veggies later as I don’t care for the way most veggies can up.

We went with the Accumulair Diamond MERV 13 filters after some research. Our downstairs unit uses 24x36 filters.

Just plug: Accumulair Diamond MERV 13, into Amazon's search or wherever you purchase your filters.

My concern was maybe these might be too air flow restrictive, but that doesn't seem to be an issue after about a month of use. Really cut down the amount dust in the house. We have a two story with an open ceiling to the upper level in the living and foyer areas.

I can’t imagine.

I hope she weathers this OK.

That would be the perfect trial for something like that.

If it can spare those in nursing homes, it works.

Thanks. She isn’t doing too good and this has been really hard on her. There is no substitute for family interaction.

Why not get a dough hook?

Most of the hard work is kneading the bread anyways.

Cutting it into bread sized chunks and putting them in a bread pan is not that much work.

I agree. We had a bread machine for awhile - it's how we starting making homemade bread - then we started using our mixer with a dough hook and gave the bread machine away. Lol

It's just as easy and does a better job, IMO.
