A thread: A running list of meals and other food items I’ve cooked and baked. We’ll start with the North African/Mexican mashup of harissa rubbed carnitas that I made last night
@STATter911@OUC_DC@Loveablem Wow, 31yrs! My mom just retired after 21 at our local dispatch center. Most people don’t understand the stresses and traumatic events long term dispatchers have been witness to.

There’s this guy on TikTok who does nursery rhymes in the style of his favourite bands and the production standards are insane. This Mumford and Sons style rendition of You Are My Sunshine is genuinely as good as a song they would release
@ihldmybreth4fun @Ugarles Oh, they do believe. They just know that’s how the sauce is made, and either have no problem with it or don’t want to publicly say yup this is how the sauce is made deal with it (which is also have no problem with it)
