  Oh please… Sure you get Vegas but you’re stuck with Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and both Dakotas! Plus a shitload of Mormons and desert. Take 'em and welcome. But I suggest you label them all “immigrants” and don’t allow them to vote.

  Spicy mayo as a condiment, and looks like clams without the shells

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I use Ubuntu btw.⁩ ⁨⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s spicy mayo (mayo, Sriracha, lime)

  *palate

  It’s the one with “ate” in it, so use it when the mouth is involved.

  Pallet is the one made of wooden slats. The ll in the middle is your reminder.

  Also, palette has “pale” in it, so it’s the one about color. Bob Ross carries a pale white palette to mix his paints on.

  That sounds delicious

  Not to mention, all leftover pizza is good for breakfast but that would be extra good.

  And I still opened it just to get a better look.

  We had our condo re-appraised during the Great Recession to reflect the lower “current market value.” The rate per value remained the same but the tax bill went down. We had to pay the assessor, but iirc we went in with a group of people in our building and he charged a group rate since most of the work was duplicate.

  The British series “The Cleaner” and the Australian series “Mr. and Mrs. Murder” illustrate a bit of why it’s expensive and discuss a little about why their characters do that job. They’re comedy/mystery shows, so not completely realistic of course.

  By the time a kid is out of car seats, much less sitting in the front seat, they’re old enough to remind the mom to wear hers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No, in America we distinguish between “preserves” (berries left whole, except for those that fall apart by themselves, or big chunks of peach or whatnot) “jam” (fruit is mashed, usually has the seeds but can be pushed and scraped through a strainer to remove them, but the pulp remains part of the finished product) and “jelly” (fruit is either juiced and double-strained /filtered before cooking or afterwards, finished product is transparent).

  I’m pretty sure those categories are legal, and probably include percentages of fruit to sugar and water for commercial products, because they’re consistent in labeling at the grocery store.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Apple sauce is common here too but not used as a bread spread. Mint jelly is only used as a condiment for lamb afaik.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay that makes total sense then. The fruits you listed I have mostly seen as jam or marmalade or preserves rather than jelly.

  As a person who doesn’t like grape seeds or squashy grapes I don’t think I’d like grape jam. I wonder if a winery with extra grape juice made the first grape jelly?

  Concord grapes don’t make great wine, but their growers are probably doing better than the fine wineries right now with the wine glut and people pinching pennies with cheap food like PBJs for the kids.

  I grew up in a strawberry town and make my own strawberry jam using my mom’s recipe. So even though the “iconic American PBJ” uses grape jelly we always had strawberry jam in ours.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Apple jelly is clear, and is the base for mint jelly, but I think maybe y’all use mint sauce instead?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oof I typed a response with 3 recipe links and lost it so I’ll just say jelly is clear bc juice, jam is opaque bc fruit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes in some other places what we refer to as jello (gelatine-based fruit-flavored wobble) you call jelly. But the jelly in a classic PBJ is assumed to be made from concord grape juice and sugar, jellified by pectin. Do you guys not distinguish between the pectin and gelatin kinds?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I like strawberry preserves, so I occasionally bite into a big squooshy chunk of strawberry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I too have had the experience of learning something I just never thought about from childhood on. And I will note that most jelly (and purple grape juice, and Manischewitz passover wine) is made from Concord grapes, which are not the same kind as are usually eaten raw from a grocery store. So no judgement, just curious: do you mean you never noticed the jar says “Concord Grape Jelly” or do you just not eat/encounter jelly?

  That sounds more like Grandfather Death. The children know He’s not a monster.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨She's just being honest.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well Susan Sto Helit has taught us how to handle the monsters: threaten them with the fireplace poker until you force them out into the open, then flip the fluffy blanket over them, which throws them into an existential crisis and they disappear.

  It’s less messy than just beating them to death with the poker.

  One way to start could be to go to the Open Houses in the area you live as well as where you want to buy. You’re not just looking at the houses, you’ll also meet some realtors, and if there’s one you like, you can hire them to help you through the process.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They be chompin⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Y’know, I have a big squeeze bottle of ketchup sitting in the fridge unopened. Several times I have thought, “this dinner could use a squirt of ketchup to dip into.” But because it’s just me, and I only ever use a little squirt, I always decide it’s not worth starting the clock on that big jug. Probably silly because ketchup is famously long-lived, but better for me not to get all that sugar in my system anyway. Sometime when the kids are all home I’ll have to plan a dinner that justifies breaking the seal.
