Kamaltoe had nothing to do with taxing tips. I saw a meme yesterday that said she cast the deciding vote etc, etc., - it was bullshit. For the record, Ronald Reagan was President when they started taxing tips, as well as social security benefits, back in 1982.
Bear in mind, of course, that his Presidency followed that of Jimmy Carter, who was arguably the worst POTUS ever as it relates to the country's economy. During Carter's reign, national mortgage rates hovered for a time at 19%. Barb and I bought a house in Manasquan, NJ that year with an 18.25% mortgage.

This is interesting - and really true. If you love to cook, then you'll need to stock at least some basic spices. Aside from stocking your spice rack with salt and pepper, the well-prepped home cook usually keeps spices, such as cumin, chili powder, oregano, curry, cinnamon, and garlic powder, to name but a few. If you're starting from scratch, you're probably thinking about purchasing a minimum of 12 different spices that will cost you between $4.99 and $15 each, depending on which grocery store you shop at. That will cost you somewhere between $59 and some change on the low end and $180 on the high end.
Or it'll cost you between $12 and $15 at the Dollar Tree. If you're stocking up on spices, stop at your neighborhood dollar store first to save yourself some serious cash. Going this route allows you to pick up more than one container of each spice, allowing you to keep extras on hand. That is, you can buy three or four containers of the same spice at the dollar store, and those three or four containers will often cost you the same price as buying just one at the supermarket.

This BOLO was issued yesterday here in Florida. Ya gotta give this guy a little bit of credit. How much balls does it take to dress like that in the middle of the hottest friggin' time of year, go in to the store, load up all that shit and just walk the fuck out? He probably knows that not one employee - including the 'loss prevention specialist' is allowed to even confront him. And yes, of course he is one of 'the usual suspects'...

The fourth reason is simple - Babs hates to cook and, to be honest, shouldn't. She's cooked six meals in the 40+ years I've known her. Probably won't be doing a seventh, unless I'm crippled and speechless.

Herbs and spices are the most pesticide sprayed. All mine are organic for health.
ReplyDeleteYea, I do all the cooking around here too, my wife is not allowed to touch my knives or my cast iron. She has no idea about keeping a clean, uncluttered work area & clean up as you go. She made lasagna about 10 yrs ago & I swear I'm still cleaning up after that fiasco.
ReplyDeleteRegarding Cinnamon, there are two types, the regular stuff and Saigon cinnamon. Regular has a nice, mellow, cinnamony flavor. Saigon is like spicy cinnamon, packs some heat. Used together you can get a much better cinnamon hit.
ReplyDeleteAnd, spices. Doesn't hurt to stock up on them. For those who weren't awake during World History, spices drove the whole Golden Age of Exploration. A small shipload of spices was enough, back in the days (1400's-1600's) to potentially disrupt the economy of some of Europe's nations. Stock up on both the good expensive stuff and the stuff at the dollar stores. Stored in a relatively dry spot, spices will last for decades. And will be more rare in a collapsed world.
Penzees Spices is run by a bunch of leftoid kooks but their products are better than anything you can buy in a store. Theres no comparison with fresh cinnamon and other spices with lots of volatiles
ReplyDeleteBefore kakulas vote, people reported tips on the honor system. Her vote led to the system now where tips show up on receipts reported to the eye ar less.
