Clearly this isn’t the arrangement Mama Bear and Papa Bear originally had.

Was it unsalted butter? Salted butter can be left out for a while, certainly more than a few days without concern, but unsalted needs to be refrigerated.

You’re probably right for a home with this setup today. Back when these were really popular, probably not.

Home theaters are a fairly recent thing and were not the norm, even for people with these types of setups, outside of maybe the uber rich who could afford a projector and the cost of prints.

Sounds like the PNW to me.

Really good! I don’t know that I’ll be able to go back to store-bought.

This year we’re cooking a 26 lb pasture raised turkey. If it’s still not great, we’re doing something else for the meat course next year.

According to the article the clay manufacturer isn’t shuttering due to lack of business but because the owners want to retire and can’t find somebody to take it over. Seems odd to me.
