So the wife asked me if I would take a ride with her to Ikea the other day, to pick up a chest of drawers for a room she redecorated.

Look for the solid pine stuff there and finish it yourself.

Do they have Amish furniture stores in your area? I have no idea if that type of thing is nationwide.

You can always build one. I know a guy that knows a guy that makes mattresses (seriously).

Is anybody else annoyed that the main character trait of Pete Butigege is that he's gay? I mean, that's his entire schtick. He's gay.

Out of flour, sugar, and shortening? WTF!

Kroger around here does not have those little bags you put produce in.

The Great Reset Talking Point is that "Now everything is going to be local and organic!"

That is what Wife's Facebook Small Lib Arts College Friends are repeating as NPC hotspots.

Today I tried to buy toothpicks at Safeway, but they were out.

Then I tried to buy a Ritter chocolate bar at TJ, but they were out.

I found toothpicks at Walgreens, but there are lots of noticeable gaps on the shelves there.

I've read that in Argentina, houses are literally paid for with a suitcase full of cash. The transaction is done in the lobby of a bank to take advantage of bank security, no one in Argentina trusts the banks anymore after they confiscated everyone's dollar savings.

With a supply chain crisis facing the country, Buttegg talks about directing federal dollars to make sure "Buses" carrying "Black or Puerto Rican kids" to the "Beach" aren't enocuntering "underpasses "too low" on the way, because that must have been Ray's Cyst.

This is true. NOBODY keeps dollars in banks. It happened at least twice in the past decade or so that I can recall.

Yesterday I noticed a shortage of bread at Publix, their selection was very slim. And they didn't have any Publix Brand breads.
This comes at a time, I have mastered several bread techniques and have just been itching for it to become feasible for me to make bread regularly.
Hoagie Rolls, Hotdog Rolls, Kaiser Rolls, Bagels, Asian Milk or Water Roux bread, and Italian.

Finally got the good shit yeast, stay away from that crappy Fleishman's it's always expired or under performs. And don't be afraid to let the ole Kitchen Aide mixer go to town on it. Just let it go, with the dough hook, until you almost forget that it's even running, because you've tuned the noise out.
