I have tried my hand at fried rice several times and have never been able to get as good as I get at a restaurant. Maddening. Probably something pretty simple that I'm botching but there it is.
Cross posted from the Poor people food thread in Lulz. The rice was left over from Fridays gumbo. The milk was sour and we were out of half & half so I made do with real cream. It was fine.
Nicholls and one other person, don’t know if it was McVeigh or not,Broke into our local Martin Marietta quarry and took blasting caps and dynamite. I saw that motherfucker around town often and had no idea. They mixed it all up at a county fishing lake 20 miles north of us.
Terry Nicholls was living in the country just outside of my hometown at the time. Once that connection was made the FBI and other LE agencies had a large presence here. A week or so before the bombing, I had rented a Ryder box truck in order to haul some tooling back to Kansas from a plant in Lincoln, IL. It stayed in the parking lot of our business until the tooling was repaired and I then drove it back to Lincoln. When I went to the airport to return home, the bomb had just gone off and all of the televisions in the airport were tuned to the special news report. A couple of days after I returned home, our company got a visit from the FBI because it had been reported that we had a Ryder truck sitting in our parking lot. They quickly checked the rental papers and ruled us out as suspects but it was pretty nerve wracking to say the least.
The OKC Memorial is one of the most sobering monuments that I have visited. I highly recommend a visit.
My mom used to make a pot of macaroni and sauteed onions. She then made a thin gravy using bacon drippings and poured it over the macaroni. Probably had less than 50 cents in the whole meal. I'll bet we ate that at least 3 times a month.
My wife and I still do this from time to time. We are a long way from poor but some nights we just don't feel like doing much more than that. Another guilty pleasure is a pot of rice, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar with a splash of half and half.
Marshall would philosophically and politically align well with aggy. I am amazed how many Shocker fans still pine for the good old days of abusing players and choking assistants. He always said that he didn't intend to coach past his early Sixties, wanted to retire to a beach somewhere. As far as I know, he took his millions to leave and did just that.
India is back in the lineup today. I haven't heard an official report of the damages but Q said it was non-concussive. If he is out for any length of time, the Royals offense will sputter even worse than they normally do. I fear that they would pencil him in regardless what the protocol says.
I have been there when they were blasting but it wasn't nearly that close. I wasn't calling you out for being claustrophobic. Some family members have it and it isn't a joking matter.
I don't see any apple cider donuts in your pictures. My SisIL was the principal at Elliot, ME Elementary for a number of years. They tapped all of the Maples around the school and made/sold syrup to fund school projects. I made sure to order early to get a couple small bottles of it. Good stuff.
