    Both of mine have developed cracks. I've never dropped them and they certainly get much less use than they would in a commercial kitchen. Both are out of warranty. So I haven't tried calling them. I've basically switched to the ThermoPops. At 1/4 the cost, I won't mind too much if one gets lost or breaks. I've bought a couple of Dots for some family members and they seem to work fine.

    they wanted $25 and i'd have to pay for shipping to them to fix the hinge issue on my thermapen.  you can get 2 thermopops on sale for that. 

    since the dot isn't instant read, is it really worth 4x the cost of a similar product from taylor?  pretty sure i paid $10 for my basic leave in thermometer.

    Almost everything I make at home, I just do impromptu without a recipe. Since I tend to use good ingredients, usually turns out anywhere from good to awesome. My last foray...I finished it a few minutes ago, falls into the latter category. Let's call it Cajun smoked sausage flatbread sammiches.

    What you need(feeds 1, scale up for additional people)-

    Good flatbread from local baker or make it yourself, none of that preservatives nonsense.

    1-avocado, 1-jalapeno, 1-bell pepper, 1-vidalia onion, about 10 small Portabella slices or 3 whole medium ones, Himalayan sea salt(or just sea salt), Tajin seasoning, 1/3 of package of Conecuh Cajun smoked sausage, olive oil

    Take a 1/4 thick, about 3 inch slice of onion, 1/2 of the bell pepper(de-seeded), the mushrooms, jalapeno(de-seeded) and dice it up finely. Scoop out avocado into bowl, sprinkle a good pinch of Tajin in bowl, add 2 teaspoons of olive oil, one good grind of sea salt grinder or small pinch(if already ground), take about a third of the diced onion/bell/mushroom/jalapeno and put in bowl. Mash it all up and mix thoroughly for your homemade guac. Slice the sausage into 1/4 slices, put in pan over medium heat, add the rest of the diced veggies, until onions start to caramelize a little and sausage is done. Start warming the flatbread, my quick way is to put on a plate in microwave, with damp paper towels in between each one and on top of last one for 2 minutes. Take flatbread out, spread the guac evenly across one whole surface. Spoon the sausage and veggies combo into the flatbread and fold like a taco. Go to town on those and any leftover sausage/veggie mix, just scoop into your mouth like a heathen.

    Can use tortillas instead of flatbread, I imagine would be close to the same. Hard to get good one around here unless you make them yourself.

     

     

    did you really just admit to putting mushrooms in guacamole?

    I had to drive to Dallas VA today. Jesus H. Christ how do you people deal with this everyday? Traffic is horrible and mostly because people can't fucking drive. The goal appears to be get to the left lane as soon as possible then drive at whatever speed you feel like. 70 is kinda scary, so let's drive 55 and make damn sure we don't leave a gap on the right for someone to get around. Nobody has any concept of flow. We need those driverless cars asap.

    But the Astros won. Maybe a Corona with lime?

    no coronas in the house.  on to the 3rd lone star of the hour

     

    edit: also there may or may not be some colombian chicks with fake boobs and great abs scissoring each other in the corner of my screen

  6. a few months ago cornyn was retweeting articles about how the republicans were going to pass a carbon tax to save us from the GND.  and while i think a carbon tax is probably the most efficient solution, the revenues need to be rebated straight back out to the population since they're highly regressive (in my world everyone over the age of 18 would get a share.  maybe 16 year olds could get partial shares.  it basically funds UBI).  who wants to guess the upcoming cornyn bill is a carbon tax that just shoves the funds into general revenue to pay for more corporate/wealthy tax cuts?

     

    also the tax needs to be high enough to actually do work.  there's a team at university of chicago calculating the economic cost worldwide, and that's your baseline (because there's non economic costs)
