1 watermelon has over 1,000 calories. But this stupidity is why I’m rarely here these days. I’m out

I hope it’s for an extended period.

 

[VolNExile]

Yes

Almost home sweet home for my mother’s family! They were on the other side of the tracks tho (Tanglewood.) My mother and uncle went to Peabody Elementary, then Fairview Jr (now Maxine Smith STEAM), then Central High.

Not sure if the watermelon fact bothers you or me not being around much.

We are running short on, shall we say, a diversity of opinions and personalities around here.

I’m just out on continuing that convo. For what it’s worth, I’m also out on joe’s a dawg fan, Mikey hates Asian food, refs are to blame for everything that goes against UT, and a few other convos I forget at the moment. So there’s not much to contribute here when you exit those conversations

We’ve discussed it here before, but the air fryer to roast them is a game changer. I add a little red pepper flake and garlic to powder when I toss them in olive oil

We didn't have any in the house. Wtf

Yeah, the endless negativity combined with worn-out jokes gets old. All the more reason for some different input.

Oh well. I'm taking 19 hours this semester. I really need to take a vacay myself while I try to learn how to learn again.

Oh, making fun of IPA drinkers is another one

Well, but there's something to that one... lol

But the baked tater was probably delicious assuming you cooked it long enough

 

[volfanbill]

I’ve never had alcohol, so I have zero cares to give about what people choose

last time she used a little garlic parmesean salt
air fryer's good, too, but since my diet change over the last month and a half or so, she is usually doing several things in the oven....says it's easier to "time" everything than using the air fryer
