I came across this company from South Carolina that sells heirloom grains and rices, all cold milled that it ships up here. They also have these amazing recipes that are just so much (frank)ing work. This shrimp bisque was so good but they wanted you to use homemade fish stock which meant driving around looking for fish heads or frames. It was a two day process but man, was it good.

I’ve also never tasted better rice. It sounds weird to think that there’s a big difference but it is so good. But again, more work. Cook it in lots of water, drain and then spread it out on a baking pan with dabs of butter in the oven to dry.

Here’s the bisque recipe with link to the web site if you ever want to get their stuff.

I've had similar experiences when I go to Finland and shop for potatoes at the grocery store or the market.

Huge variety of potatoes that have incredible amounts of flavour. It's almost a crime to eat them with anything other than just a bit of salt or butter.

Nice. Paella is a house favourite for us. Well, mostly for me.

What kind of proteins?

I've taken to bunny, chorizo, and clams.

I tell the kids the rabbit is chicken.

Probably dominated by seafood. Prawns, Icelandic Scampi, Dungeness Crab, Lobster, clams, lamb and Chorizo sausage.

What is to become of E. Kane after Sunday night game vs. Chicago.

His 21 games suspension for having a fake covid card in his possession will be up.

Some team should pay him with counterfeit money.

Pandemic reference aside . . . we all have tendency to glorify the past and whatnot, but I swear somewhere there was a split in the timeline and we're in the bad one. I think it's what really happened in Y2K. I worked on Y2K projects for my company. They gave me lots of unwarranted bonus money to stay and work through Y2K. Do you know my contribution? I told a tester which date fields existed on ONE screen of a massive Order Management tool. I'm just saying there's clearly more to it. Dig deeper! The conspiracy is real!

. . . Jesus, what did I put in this coffee?

This needs to be facebooked asap. Im sure you could get so many followers.

Nice, good to hear.
Im going to my first concert on Dec 16th for USS in Guelph.
Looking forward to it.
Except for all the people of course lol

- Fakepartofme

Forgive me if I am wrong but isn't that half the reason you go to a concert? To enjoy the atmosphere?

It would be like going to a leafs game with just you in the arena, I'll stay home thanks

Good news is Kampf was taking part in practice! Doesnt look like anything is too bad or wrong there.

Hope for the best, usually takes 1-2 days to feel the effects of a minor concussion. We will know later tonight.

I would love JT Miller on this team.

Could fit him next year if roster looks like this and cap goes up 1M.

Miller-AM-Marner
Bunting-JT-Nylander
Robertson-Kampf-Kase(2,250,000)
rookie-Spezza-Simmonds

Rielly-Brodie
Muzzin-Liljregen
Sandin-Dermott
Kral

Campbell(4.5M)
Woll(800K)

Traded Ritchie and Kerfoot(Kerf likely in Miller trade)

Kerfoot, 1st, prospect

Meh, he's been much better of late. Still not the greatest but that's what cheaping out in that spot will get ya.

We all have that one irrational over the top take, I can respect that yours is Holl. 👍

- joel878




He really hasn't been. Like, at all. I honestly don't know how anyone can watch him attempt to hockey and think it's anything other than awful.

There's nothing irrational about it. He's straight trash and the team is undeniably better without him. That's pretty rational, actually.

Same: I miss live concerts, Have great seats for Roger Waters, ZZ top and Ringo. Thinking about going to see Peter Hook and the Light. If I get brave, I might do a Blues Cruise.
- winsix

I've got Roger Waters tickets as well -- looks like it's been rescheduled to July 8th, 2022. I'll have to confirm my tix are still good, I never asked for a refund (not even sure if that was possible).

I think I've only missed Peter Hook and the Light once since he started going through the whole New Order catalogue. Love Hooky - my favourite bassist of all-time! Frankly, I think his shows are more interesting than the recent New Order shows have been -- but that may just be the smaller venue bias I have talking. 🤷

I've never been on one before so I'm not sure if I would be so brave as to try a themed cruise. Sounds like an interesting idea though!

- GreatGigInTheSky

Agreed. I think Joel is being really charitable in his Holl take. Like, I think Holl hasn't been as abject terrible as the first few games this season but he's so obviously out of his depth and only hangs on because of cognitive dissonance (e.g. we know he sucks but we love the idea of a 2M second pair RHD).

I think he gets a decent 1st contract. I think teams have learned not to give out Shipacheyov contracts....I'd hope.

But apparently up to 24 teams were interested in signing him before this season.

You listen to a story like this and why the (frank) wouldn't you want to play in NA if you can? Maybe the stars get treated differently but jeez...

people say "it's just plain not right having 2 or more rookies on the team."
that think they are SC contenders.

Yeah that is bs

Rookies are huge for giving cheap depth. I'd argue every contender needs a few rookies playing over their contracts for them.
