I’m getting an overpowering iPhone/YouTube ad that takes over DU completely on the homepage and after a click or two internally when I type in another DU page link. Anyone else having this problem or know how to navigate around it?

I’ve tried two different recipes to get my sourdough going. Both were spectacular failures. 🙄 anyone have a starter recipe they’ve had luck with that they could share?

I wonder if it would taste better as chocolate milk? 🤨

It’s cheaper than buying it but wow making it was messy. My daughter’s guinea pig loved the pulp though. I dried it overnight and broke it up with her breakfast.

Any tips for making it more tasty?

He’s still doing what he wants at nearly 90. Mowing, cleaning, cooking... he’s a fantastic driver and until my mom died last year, was mentally at about 95%, just forgot a few things occasionally. In the last year, he’s started forgetting things, losing words and names, the normal senior stuff. He recognizes it and has me go over important papers and bills.

He was on the roof last week cleaning gutters and sealing his screened in porch roof. 🙄 Told me later that night. But I’ve decided that if he keels over mowing his lawn, painting his cabin or falls off a roof then he’s gone on his own terms doing what makes him happy.

We aren’t to the point of needing help yet, but I am researching and unless he has a catastrophic fall, I plan to keep him in his home as long as I can. We may move in, if needed. It’s the least I can do for the grumpy old bastard.

So, who has used the big national in-home companies? Any recommendations or places to steer away from? My aunt was in a Catholic facility (and it didn’t burn down with the Baptist moving in) and I want him to be there if worst comes to worst. (At nearly 90, I see being in a home worse than death and he does, too.)

Thank you!

At the risk of, as in other forums when I ask for a recommendation and get sarcastically told how “the google” works... lol ... I wanted to ask if anyone has a recipe rec for Tuna Steaks.

- we eat too much beef (Kansas loves cow), and I’m just learning how to fix non-shellfish seafood.

- I’ve literally never had tuna that didn’t come in a can. And I hate the stuff in the can.

So, any good place to start? We have a rice pilaf with garlic and spinach, a salad with homemade honey mustard dressing and steamed asparagus with Parmesan on the menu plan for tonight with it, if that helps.

Thanks in advance. I’m looking at these things in my fridge and some recipes on Pinterest and I’m at a loss.

I run a small theatre that is dedicated to helping fellow Kansas playwrights and I thought I'd copy a killer theatre in London (Finborough) who publishes the new work that they are producing with the first few pages serving as the program for that particular run of the show. The cost of the published play is a part of the ticket price. I liked that idea and liked the idea of getting the new work that I and other writers "published" under our theatre's banner, even though it isn't Dramatists or a big publisher.

I'm liking Blurb so far. Any thoughts?

I hate it. But I won’t die from my severe apnea. So I use the horrific thing routinely. I’m at level 27 so it’s like sleeping in a hurricane.

Anyway, I can only sleep about six hours on it or my bad back locks up and I can’t function. So I try to go to sleep at midnight and wake up around six. But the worst part is what my doc called a CPAP hangover? I apparently stay in REM sleep right up until the alarm goes off? So until 10 or 11 each morning I feel hungover minus the nausea. So I can be in debilitating pain for hours and need help just getting out of bed or I can feel like I’ve been on a bender.

Anyone else have that hangover? How do you deal with it? I think it’s the lesser of two evils.

I did not see an office email for him.

Dem with a spine! Go Cory!

Hi! Lurker since the Bush selection, couldn’t stay quiet with the Orange Menace in office so I’ve started posting. :waves:

I’ve been asked to bring in a dessert for the funeral reception of a friend at church. They expect 300-400 and there are only a half dozen of us baking.

I have a professional oven (I’m a writer so that means I have a real career in food! Lol), and full sheet pans that fit perfectly. I just can’t find a good, simple cake recipe for a full sheet online. Everything seems to be half sheets, etc. I’m most worried about bake times.

I’ve got a fantastic frosting so even just a simple white or yellow cake would work.

Any resources or recipes?
