Omelettes. So versatile. So good. Of all the combos I love bacon and mushrooms in my american cheese omelettes best of all.

Pancakes are a close second.

Extremely sorry for your loss. What a treasured loved one you got to have. I'm sure he loved you immensely.

Learning to flip things in any cookware is still a work in progress for me, but it always gives impressively better results when I can manage it, so it's something I want to master!

This one's new to me; I love it!

I find that also cuts down on how much your eyes water (for the onions)

Pasta water as an emulsifier was also a huge technique for me :)

 

A lot of good cooking is in technique. What's something that you discovered or was told that really changed something meaningful for you? For me, I had struggled a lot to make omelettes. They always wound up becoming scrambled eggs because I sucked at flipping them over to cook on the other side (I like my eggs cooked pretty well so this was important to me.) Finally, watching someone else make an omelette, I noticed they didn't flip it. They put a lid on the pan, turned the heat down, and let the top cook that way. I tried it myself and now I make almost perfect omelettes every time. Have you had anything like this happen to you? If so, what was it?

There have been many times I've passed on something because it had a subscription fee but would have bought as a one time purchase. I feel like everyone's forgotten that it's an option.

I'm with you on the confusion because it's like... I don't feel the need to act this way, why do other people? What drives them that, in a void, they resort to these thoughts and behaviors? Is this who they really are, or is it an act, like doing an evil playthrough in a game. "I want to because I can here, and I can't anywhere else?"

Surprisingly uplifting!

Last time I asked that the only thing they liked was that I briefly held a job that wasn't related to the field at all. It was working at a library. "I thought that was neat."

That was it. Nothing else was noteworthy.

My memories are dim but I think Jehovah's Witnesses take this stance as well.

 
 
 

It's more likely than you may think.

First one is a screencap from Overly Sarcastic Productions. I sadly don't remember where the second one came from.
