  1. Holy shit! (literally!) I feel fortunate that I haven't had that experience! Hope you don't have to go through that again for a good, looooong time.

    Had a moment just now where I was attempting star light photography when I realised I am ready to move on beyond my $600ish (when new, definitely less now as it is "old") Prosumer DSLR. Damn it, my budget is nowhere near ready for the full frame camera or way too expensive L series lenses I would like to use. More importantly the limitations of this model - as in normal specs for the price range - are just starting to irritate me. Oh well, might as well use what I have and keep trying to improve.

    Da fuq do I do with a 4lb grass-fed veal dry-aged rump roast?
    2lbs will be barbacoa in the crockpot tomorrow, but I can't refreeze it...

    I set out after a delicious breakfast to ride along the newly marked bike route downtown, but now I'm hung up at the park and can't tear myself away from watching two adorable families of ducks.

    Do you have a needy neighbor?

    In other news, a peanut butter-black olive sandwich isn't as bad as it sounds.

    I actually do, but I paid through the nose for this one and I need to use it.
    I'm a poor grad student and it was most of my grocery budget.
    Can you refreeze a roast once it's thawed?

    You should be able to.

    I've heard that you shouldn't with meat, but I've done it with chicken and it turned out all right.
    Probably shouldn't wait too long to use it, though.

    No, I'm going to use it next weekend.

    I'd cut off the chunk I wasn't going to cook as soon as it was thawed enough to do so (I.e. when it was still partially frozen), then rewrap the other half very well and refreeze it. The key is not to let it fully warm up any more than you half to. I also wouldn't leave it for more than a couple weeks before using it.

    Saw this at work and thought of that recent conversation on here about maple syrup.

    The question becomes, why bother even putting the 2% into the mix?

    I won a game of 99.
    Considering I've only been playing for a couple of days and I was facing a table full of cutthroat players (my folks and their neighbors) who play regularly, I didn't think I had a chance.
    Of course now I have a jar of quarters I have to schlep around.

    What I was thinking. I looked at the syrup I rarely use in my refrigerator and they didn't even bother with any amount of maple syrup with that brand.
