i feel like the philadelphia cream cheese in the tubs is not the same product as the brick of cream cheese.

I mopped my floors yesterday. Today they were pressure washing the breezeways which sent a bunch of dirty water under my door. Thanks a lot!

you're right

A good tip always, that I never use but people who can cook well do, is to measure by weight instead of volume to maintain consistency, and that might help to alleviate the problem somewhat.

Agree for baking. Less so for cooking.

Of course the best cooks and bakers I've known never weighed or measured anything.

Baking is what I meant, though as you can easily tell I am neither a cook nor a baker.

Using nor makes me feel smart.

I generally don't measure much for cooking, I don't do much baking, but I do measure everything when I do it. I feel like with baking the ratios have to be much more precise and if you are off you won't know until the end.

Cooking is an art. Baking is a science.

I don't know if i should be relieved or appalled that no one posted a "Nola traded to Padres" thread.

Watching a woman talk on her cell phone which is mounted to a selfie stick.

Wow there really is a category for everything.

It's 2am and I can hear an air raid siren in the distance. I wonder what the heck is going on. I'm kinda in the middle of nowhere. Maybe a fire?

If it's nuclear attack, I'll see everyone on the other side.

Have you (or your landlord) called an exterminator?

landlord sucks and he drags his feet on everything. for example, our windows sometimes leak during bigger rain storms. the plaster between the bottom of the frame and the floor has some decent cracks and peeling because of this. we have told him and he is just like it is an old house.
