What did you cook or eat today (February 2025)

My stone lives in my oven. I do think it's handy for evenly generating heat, though I don't put the pizza directly on it, I have a pizza pan (the kind with holes) that I slide onto it. I don't have a peel because I like collecting burn marks on my forearms lol...seriously wouldn't mind having one because I need more kitchen clutter in my life. I'd like to have those screens, too.

My stone stays in the oven. Keeps it clean when I blast furnace stuff.

Curves are good! Every 90° "angle" in ductwork adds 10' of linear load to the blower motor. Stay rounded!

Funny you should say that. My husband's friend a few years back is a gym rat and we had him over for dinner one night. He looked at me and told me how hot I would be if I started working out. He said if I joined his gym he'd get me in shape in a month or two. I looked at him and said, "John, round  is a shape."

I waited for him to pick his jaw up off the floor before I burst into laughter. I never had him over again for dinner, not because he hurt my feelings, but because I found him incredibly rude.

Well it was incredibly rude. Very presumptuous to think he can comment on your appearance, particularly in an unflattering manner. It’s like being eyeballed and told you’re property with potential 😂

I didn't make comments about his wife's disproportionate breast augmentation...never would I! I know he wonders why we don't accept his social invitations because he's truly clueless.

Shame isn’t it but I suppose you got to know he’s not your sort of person early on.

Yeah he was hub's buddy since high school. I was thin when I met him but put on a few pounds gradually and actually we'd hung out as couples for 10 or so years when that happened. He used to look at me in ways I didn't like when I was thinner but never said anything inappropriate. Never really cared for him though and DH doesn't seem too concerned about keeping the friendship going.

Yeah I don't like my husband's brother. I'd prefer not to see him ever. He's a drug addict and I don't trust him.

Sounds like a bit of a creep! One of Mr SSOAP’s best friends was very much the same. We don’t see him anymore for similar reasons. It’s not nice to realise someone you’ve been friends with for decades isn’t a good person. He went a lot further than just odd looks and it was a bit of a shock. Heyho, you live n learn.

Some drug addicts (the majority of addicts to harder drugs) seem to end up with shark eye, the desperation for the next fix makes them view everyone as something they may be able to utilise to get it. That’s a hard habit for them to break because assessing someone’s value and gullibility happens for them on auto. I could be wrong but the thing is once you’ve been on the receiving end of those eyes you’re forever aware of what that looks like. I certainly am.

When my mil passed her house was sold. My wife was an executor of the will. Her 2 brothers were a holes ringing her and pestering her about their payout. I stepped in and intercepted their calls and told them stop ringing here. ( old landlines back then)
