This teriyaki chicken was supposed to have fried rice with it, but oddly we didn't have eggs, so we did white rice and spiffed up the broccoli into a stir fry rather than just steaming to compensate for the lack of fried rice. The chicken was perfect.

I wish I could remember how this was made, but it was just a thrown together soup that my family made to use up nearly expired lentils. I liked it, but I'm not sure if anybody else in the family is a big fan of lentils. Also made a monterey jack grilled cheese with it.

I was curious to poll those of you here who have experience with Sigs polymer handguns, particularly the P320 and P365 series' and to ask what you think of them. Up to now I had heard nothing but minor qualms about either of these guns, but I just recently encountered some anti-Sig sentiments...

I have been cruising my cook books for anything new that is easy to try and uses ingredients that I can get without trouble. I saw Ratatouille and thought, why not? My mom has never cooked with eggplant before so she was surprised when I pulled it out and started chopping it up. Both her and my...

Who doesn't like home made bread! This is what I make most often with a twist; these have cheddar cheese in them. Just came out of the oven and waiting for it to cool enough to eat.

https://www.wethebuilders.org/posts/what-it-really-takes-to-migrate-cobol Musk wants to re-write critical government systems using AI and the implications are scary. We could end up with the Social Security system collapsing and then not being able to undo it.

Simple but good combination of meat loaf, mashed potatoes and roasted carrots.

I had someone ask how well a .22 Mag rimfire could be expected to perform as an animal defense cartridge for up to coyote, fired from a 5.5 in. revolver. My instinct was that that might be stretching the cartridges effective use, but it might be better than nothing. However, this isn't my...

This is my family's Olive Garden imitation, home made zoupa tuscana soup, my brothers attempt at copying their bread sticks (very close copy), and a ceasar salad pack that we just picked up from Walmart to make it easy. This was really good together! I'm trying to get the soup recipe from my...

My Mom apparently came back from vacation wanting lots of home made cooking, so the last couple days I've been helping prep lots of good food. I have no idea what style of meal you could call this, but we happened to make these things together once and it became an all time family favorite...

Made some soup yesterday. I was pretty exhausted but I really wanted something good and hearty for dinner, so with my two brothers' help we got two big Instant Pots made. Had leftovers today. Here is what a typical set of vegetables before prep looks like. The knife on the board is a gyuto that...

I don't have harvested meat to use in my meals, but I do cook a lot! My family often makes large soups of 22 servings a pot, and I am the resident knife enthusiast, so I tend to do the cutting for most of our large meals. I have enjoyed learning a lot about cooking over the last couple years...

A couple of my younger sisters are supposed to be on their way with my parents to their first trip to Disney World in a couple days. My youngest sister however is staying behind with me and my brothers, so I decided to make her something. She loves the Lion King, and since all the kids are...

My parents have decided to go to Disney World in Florida for their 28th anniversary! They just arrived at the hotel yesterday and I hope are having tons of fun at the park today. In order to make it possible me and my two adult brothers are staying to watch our six kid siblings. I am so glad...

Hey folks, I got into some leather working recently and wanted to share. I have done some pretty intensive knife and sharpening research over the last three years and hope that I might be able to experiment with some crude knife making soon, I even have a rudimentary forge in the works for the...

What they have done at the Olympics this year is thoroughly disappointing. They have totally vulgarized the supplemental entertainment to a demented degree, included children in their digusting displays, singled out Christians as a target for insult, and now allow men to compete in women's...

I have been cooking a lot more ever since my family moved out of the exploding city to a smaller town. There's not as many restaurants and many of us have health issues that don't need to be aggravated by fast food anyway, plus it is actually possible to get to the grocery store out here, it's...

Well I moved almost a couple years ago and am finding that the house I moved into has foundation issues. We quite simply don't have the money to pay what professionals are asking to fix it, not to mention they couldn't find the actual problem, we had to find and diagnose they issue ourselves, so...

I had posted earlier on this subject but deleted it, not because it was terribly off beat but just because it was a somewhat reactionary post to something that ticked me off to learn about. I looked into it a bit more and it is sometimes called "cloud seeding." Basically someone is dumping...

Hey there, I'm wondering if anyone has any ultrasonic cleaning machines they would suggest? I had someone ask about them but I have never used one myself, and quite frankly I am totally unfamiliar with what is available.
