Flan with chilies is good. I actually used a juicy sauce with yuzu and 2 types of chilies. I have no idea why I have never heard of the 2 together unless it is a secret.

* * * My bad. Flan with chilies is a thing. I just did not know. Just search flan and chilies.

Right. French fries. But back to chile peppers How about FLAN with chillies? I have never heard of this so I am reluctant to try it but I am thinking of just adding some sauce to it. Maybe make it first and then sprinkle some sauce? This way I can try out different sauces.

I always wondered if our ancestors started using spicy foods as a way to keep pests out of their food storage

Intriguing. I have never heard this hypotheses but being as storing food is a prerequisite to a stable culture, it should be explored.

I had this D-licious bowl of soup that cleared out my chest and gave me a sound night's sleep! Whatever it is that I have (common cold/flu/pneumonia/long covid/Lambda) --- I am now on the mend and I have enough of that soup for 7 more bowls!

How did people live before chili pepper? The earliest date that modern humans reached Brazil is 20Kya: it is the Brazilian lowlands where we first found chili peppers as a common red berry. Chili peppers disseminated so fast Brazil or the New World hardly ever gets cred for them.

"All four ancient bedbug lineages predate the evolution of bats (Fig. 2) but were reconstructed to 160
ancestrally used bat hosts."

I also love the phrase bedbug lineages.

As for the disease --- there is no significant data that bedbugs spread disease. /= Bedbugs do not spread disease.

It is shameful that nations went along with no jews in the Olympics. I do not see how removing this torch relay reverses the genocide or makes us any better. How about adding a ceromony to the Olympics which advocates for the oppressed? (I do not mind if the torch relay is removed. tbh I do not watch the Olympics.)

As a rule of thumb, in the US if you walk along the street and the addresses go higher (35 Main Street, 40 Main Street, 48 Main Street, etc), then you're walking "up" the street." If the addresses descend (30 Main, 24 Main, 20 Main), then you're walking "down" the street.Dec 28, 2006

Stories like this are making me take it easy until the bug I have goes away. I may have Lambda or I may just have pneumonia or flu. My guess is that I have pneumonia+Lambda. I moved (my home) last month and it was hot so I thought my sweating was due to the heat. I caught up on my sleep and the sore muscles and the bruises have gone away but the bug remains and every so often I break into a sweat.

I am drinking hot tea and when I finish the Alishan Oolong I will look for the Big Red Robe Oolong. I was drinking Silver Tip Oolong (my fave) but the Alishan seems to be doing more for me.

I do not even have the drive to turn on my PlayStation. I am so close to getting the Verum Rex trophy.

It seems to be a real site. They are asking celebrities to volunteer.

It may just be a scam to get people to invest. The process to make meat through stem cells does not sound like it is going to produce. So calling their product, if they get this far, ie producing salami; celebrity meat is a scam but people will get something to eat so not a complete scam.

There are games that are said to have players who make money playing them. Practically any popular game has the potential to make money but there are games that are called play to earn by their designers. So I am not saying gamefaqs should list these games. It just that I searched for one and could not find it and then I searched for another.

I notice that the play to earn games all require that you sink money into the game. You do even get a trial account to see if you are any good at the game or even that you can stand the game.

It's one thing to think it's not economically viable but seeing the word "deserve" scares the shit out of me.

By income which urbanites are most impacted by Airbnb Rentals






If not here on CE, there has been much discussion on Airbnb and impact on housing. Imagine my amazement when I read that "the increased rent burden falls most heavily on high-income, educated, and white renters". https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/sophie-qingzhen-wang/files/calder-wang_sophie_harvard_airbnb_housing.pdf

I have my doubts that it falls most heavily on h-i, e and w renters. The author's reasoning is that this group prefers the amenities sought by tourists but who does not? The high-income actually have the possibility of these amenities but those of lesser income still prefer the amenities.

Short summary of Airbnb impact on housing: Buildings are purchased for the Airbnb market and landlords who have been leasing are moving into the Airbnb market. Tourists are less likely to notice lead poisoning and are less likely to look under the carpet or behind the sink. Tourists also pay more.

I think it is easier and faster to restart. I started playing and I kept getting lost so I quit When I went back to it, I started at the beginning and paid better attention to where I was going. Your issue may be different but i think you will also find yourself doing better if you start from the beginning.
