Hmm, finding a vegetarian Indian dish to make for dinner from scratch (which doesn't require a lot of ingredients I don't have and time) is an interesting challenge 🤔

Thus, why Indian restaurants and grocery stores here with takeout counters are appealing, LOL.

ai6yr,

@deewani @dougfir Oh wow, wish I knew about that last time I went through the I-40, there are a bunch of places where that would have been superior to the gas station hot dogs or Dairy Queen or whatever terrible fast food we ended up with.

ai6yr,

@deewani @dougfir Need a T-Shirt "Samosas Across America" LOL

ai6yr,

Okay, looks like we're doing Insta-Pot Chana Masala! Got too many suggestions for this to not try it!

ai6yr,

@deewani Thanks! Bookmarked and will copy this into a file!

ai6yr,

Conclusion: Good! But, I need to get some garam masala, my attempt at homemade with partial ingredients was only partially successful. Also, used too much water so it was more like chana masala soup, LOL. Tasty, but not saucy. Also, either chop the tomatoes smaller or blend/smooth it more to be closer to the real thing! Tasty nonetheless, even if it was really "the same ingredients as chana masala without the exact right spice blend and consistency"

ai6yr,

@chrisnelder Thanks! Will do that for sure.

ai6yr,

@CStamp @chrisnelder It came out great! I ate more than I should have, but I have some leftovers I'll probably eat for breakfast, LOL. I'm adding that one (probably, refined) to my "easy possible quick dishes" list. Managed to get it done in 30 min and then walk away when I had a Zoom call and it was done.

ai6yr,

@bud_t Hooray! Now, the question is, how many days can you survive on only Uncrustables?

LOL someone looking to give away black goldfish. Curious if someone did not approve of their feng shui and introduced them in there when someone wasn't looking (apparently black goldfish are symbolic in feng shui).

ai6yr,

@joy Well, I did have the contractors here ask me if the fish in my pond "just appeared"

@jmccyoung Having grown up through the Christian church (even though my parents were not Christians 🤔 ) and gone through a LOT of Sunday School, and a million sermons, it continues to mystify me how much of what they teach/say is completely disconnected from what they DO.

ai6yr,

@michael_w_busch @evilotto Yep, they don't care how they get to power or keep it, the hypocrisy is ignored. However, the New York Times shouldn't use the term that way, either.

NYTimes: "A Second Dairy Worker Has Contracted Bird Flu, C.D.C. Reports

The new case, in a Michigan farmworker, did not suggest that bird flu was widespread in people, health officials said, adding that the risk to the general public remained low." https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/22/health/h5n1-bird-flu-dairy.html

ai6yr,

@Forbearance 😂 on the new acronym. (to be fair, I think they have wanted to do good, but have been so warped by politics they have lost the trust of the public).

LOL.. from a friend here, @orv

"Apparently May 20th (5/20) is 5.20 Day.

From another club:
On the 146th day at 5:20pm local time everyone get on 146.520 and see who you can talk to.
146th day of 2024 is May 25th and it's a Saturday!!!"

ai6yr,

@ChampersBE @arnie_dxer @orv Interesting, you get 70Mhz too?! Never seen any of that kind of equipment around here, curious who owns that spectrum in North America.
