  1. Unsure if this is exclusive to me, however if I try to edit a post I will go to that function then drag / scroll the page & then it Snaps / scrolls back to where I cannot select the "Edit" item.

    Barely felt cold enough for Gumbo. We typically do seafood on Xmas eve. My Mom bought the fixin's. Monster cutting up the onion &stirring up the roux. Learning him in the ways. & Again, I will easily admit to using a "just add water" roux mix. Copy / pasta on the shopping list I sent to my wife. [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ Produce [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ ● (2) Green Bell Pepper (2) Sweet onion (Cut into big enough pieces so any "onion or bell pepper adverse" can easily see & avoid if desired). ,[emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ Leave around 5% of bell pepper seeds. ● (1) bunch of Celery Stalks. Rinse & cut into ⅓" sections. Toss out white ends ● (1) tub of fresh Okra (in clear plastic packaging) Usually on an island in produce. Light rinse & cut into ⅓" sections. Entire plastic tub for very slimy, ½ tub for "regular" slimy. [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ Dry goods [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ White rice, lowest cost. Do *NOT* get "Minute Rice". Cook & refrigerate 12 hours for reduced starch / carbs / sugars, reheat later.. **Sticky white is better than brown. [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ Seafood [emoji830]︎[emoji830]︎ ● (2) "Louisiana" brand Gumbo base, in a pouch. Directly across from seafood counter in most H E.B. stores. ● (1 lb) raw COLASSAL fresh shrimp. Optional frozen peeled / deceived / tail off shrimp, 10-15 per lb. *get (2) lbs. for Xtra meaty. Retain / use all "shrimp water" for added seafood flavor ● (2) cooked / picked crab claw meat, 8 Oz. ● (1 ~ 2) short Shucked Oysters, behind seafood counter, on ice. ● (1) Mudbug tail Meat, 1 lb. *get 2 if you want extra meaty Gumbo • Oysters semi frozen, easier to cut in ½. [emoji830]︎ shrimp semi-frozen, easier to peel & de-vein. peeling, put back in freezer for 30 minutes. Then cut in ½ head to tail. Roux thick enough but not too watery. I remove ½ cup of water from package instructions for thicker. Keep scraping bottom of pot to prevent clumping. ● Let base / roux come to boil, cover & then drop to ⅓ heat to a simmer, stir / scrape every 5 minutes. Minimum 45 minutes @ simmer & occasionally taste for celery & bell pepper softness. ● Add seafood maybe 8 minutes before "totally" done, oysters take the longest to actually cook however raw is usually OK Don't over-cook bugs or shrimp, crab is R T E. out of the tub... you're mostly re-heating. ★★ Do NOT add salt or pepper. Add hot sauce as desired. *Tobasco or Texas Pete's. ● Serve with Saltines or white rice. Should serve +8 if pre-made instructions on roux base is observed.
  3. Pardons handed out like Hallowe'en candy (provided you actually PAY for your candy).
  4. I have a friend in Florida who is a conductor on the East coast Amtrak runs (unsure if it is the AutoTrain, Silver Meteor Grand Floridian) & he's been doing this for 28 years. The biggest I ssue with delays (going "in the hole") is a lack of double tracks the entire run & you have to be timed to share the rail with freight. In some ways you can compare American rail travel to a cruise ship. You can take a slower route & enjoy the view or simply "get there" & enjoy the destination & everything in your destination city.
  5. Unpossible. Yoko gonna Yoko.
  6. Um... is it a sign of evolution if they transition d rom simple grass & sticks to a Buzz Lightyear?
  7. Time it right & go in the gym when someone comes out or goes in... like a gated community & you drive in behind someone else. More than likely nobody will ask what's up & even if they do, "I left my room card upstairs & my GF is in the room. I don't wanna go all the way back."
