What is it, about ten miles to circle your block? A block is about an 1/8th of a mile here

I went to the grocery store a little while ago and at one of our main intersections there were protestors on all 4 corners. About every car that went by honked. It was great to see people come together and protest some of the dumb stay at home orders we have.

Pretty close. Big ol country blocks, not city blocks.

$150 dollars later vet said Pepper might have excess acid in her stomach and infected eyes. Gave us some meds and eye drops. No treats for now until she starts eating. Poor thing.
Came home and made copy cat McDonalds fries. They tasted like the real thing...yummm

What's used to mimic them? Specific potatoes, cuts, and oil?

I used regular Russet, I think they use a specific type though, I cant remember which one. Canola oil, and cut to the same size as Mcdonalds fries.
Soak in cold water for 5 minutes after cutting, boil 1/2 cup Corn syrup and 1/2 cup of sugar in 12 cups of water in a pot, turn off heat when its boiling, soak cut fries in the pot for 10 minutes.

Pat dry and put fries in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Fry in oil for 2 minutes, place on a tray and allow to cool down.

Fry again for 7-9 miutes depending on crispy preference.

Just read the thread. Yum. Have you recreated Big Mac Sauce? Helmanns Mayonaise is needed with French’s burger mustard and some Heinz ketchup

Would you like to know the secret ingredient to KFC seasoning? Copious amounts of MSG (mono sodium glutamate) which isn’t as bad for you as some think. It’s just Umami flavouring which works as a flavour enhancer. I do like KFC, I’d eat a bucket
Of their chicken skins if I could

Wow there was some muscle out tonight! First real summer day, 76F, sunny and the roads had all the toys out.

Z got to get out of the garage and stretch her legs, turbo spooling is still such a joy to hear.

She may or may not have had a few good runs when we went around the block.
