This might be what drove my interest in mycology. I needed a flavorful substitute to be able to thumb my nose at the old man and say “Screw you and your damn celery! I’m never dicing another stalk of that green hell again!”.
Decades of research and thousands of miles of hiking, for what? A resentment toward aromatic vegetables. Man I feel kinda silly now.
I’m glad I could help you come to terms with this.
That’ll be $253.33. I’ll send you the invoice.
Will you accept payment in morels?
Sure … that’ll be about 7 1/2 lbs of morels please
I’ll have 'em right to you, first week of May.
This barter based business cycle is for the birds man … can’t we just get a hard currency … sheeesh
What a couple of fun guys
Wow, this salad discussion has really blossomed!
On your way back from take-out, stop at the grocery store and buy a salad kit bag. they’re $4 max (not on sale), they have good ingredients (kale, romaine lettuce, dried fruit, nuts etc.) and they come with a bag of dressing that you can use to control how much dressing is on the salad.
Get a Tupperware, dump the bag in it, put the dressing in, and toss…they are really good, and a great answer for making the take-out meal more healthy.
edit: sorry to see that you received so many worthless responses on this one, but I am glad to finally provide you with THE solution.
I freaking love these. They may the the lazy mans (woman’s) way to go but I never have rotten produce to throw out.
I tend not to use all the dressing because it’s too much but what there is, is delicious.
Things that piss me off? All the money I had earmarked to replace my beat up living room furniture is now going towards a repair to my porch. In the last windstorm some trough pulled off. It turns out, the fascia board has rotted out. $2,700 is the minimum I’ll be paying depending upon whether the trusses and deck are also rotted and the extent. It’s as exciting as the $1,300 I paid last year to replace a run of clay pipe in my basement.
Home ownership is a beautiful thing…
Similar thing happened to me this year. Had to shell out for a new A/C unit and air handler due to rust issues and lizard shorting out the start capacitor on the condenser unit (gotta love FL).
That repair monster ate my tax return and then some.

was probably going for a nice little spider, then ZZZZAAAAAAAAP!!!
I had a person annoy me in the gym at work for the first time in a long time. He was benching on the bench that was back-to-back to the squat rack I was benching in. He finished up and started loading plates back onto the rack I was working in IN THE MIDDLE OF MY BENCH SET! I mean, seriously? Who does that? And he had the weight racks on his own bench he could have put them on anyway.
It’s like those people who walk in front of you when you’re deadlifting — on the fucking platform. Was almost tempted to drop the bar on people’s feet more than a few times.
I haven’t had that one happen yet. Probably because I’m silent while benching, but when I’m doing heavy or high rep deadlifts I’m pretty loud, both vocally and setting the weights down. I think I scare people off.
I hope it doesn’t eat all of mine. On the bright side, we’re in the position that we have available cash for stuff like this but, because I’m debt averse and saving for a kitchen reno, new furniture is on hold.
Corporate management. I swear to god, you must have to take a course on how best to destroy moral once you reach a certain level of “leadership”.
It’s not limited to the corporate world.
