We make something similar for our dogs that they eat for dinner everyday. Ground beef, red kidney beans, brown rice, carrots, peas, and butternut squash. Crockpot on high for 5 hours. $15 for a weeks worth of dinner for two large dogs. I’ve tried it, it’s perfectly fine just completely unseasoned.

Why not just open a can? Is it a price thing?

Yeah. Quality canned dog food is $3 a can at minimum. To feed the two of them would be 4 cans a day for $12 a day. They eat the home cooked food for dinner and get kibble for breakfast. We have a third older dog that needs to eat wet food since she’s missing most of her teeth and it costs twice as much per month to feed her as it does to feed the other two even though she weighs 12 lbs.

Anyway



Groovy. I did not know, but it makes sense.

I wonder if the author of this knew that libraries have been around longer than book stores

To be sure, not public lending libraries. Not "libraries" as we in this happy era enjoy them. There were private libraries, corporate libraries, and eventually subscription libraries, but the public library only dates to the mid-18th century, and later if you wanted to take the books home to read on your own toilet.

The first public library in Rome was built early in Augustus' reign. Quite a bit earlier than the 18th century.

The most famous public Roman library was probably Trajan's, which is all gone now but originally surrounded Trajan's Column and let you view the entire thing.

Did they let you take the books home?

Beef tea is quite common in the UK, though usually you make it either from bovril (which is concentrated beef extract (briefly traded under the name "johnston's fluid beef" as I take endless pleasure in reminding people)) or just out of an oxo cube.

It's not bad, though generally much too salty for my taste, and bovril has an odd extra quality that I don't like, just using part of an oxo cube though is OK.

Why would you not use the stuff that takes its name from the power of the people who live inside the hollow Earth?

Oxo? That could mean anything (but it probably just means its made from oxen, which duh, beef tea).

Anyway, Cesar dressing is just lemon juice, garlic, egg yolk, worcester sauce, anchovy, salt, pepper, and oil. Apart from fresh lemon, perhaps, who doesn't have that stuff on hand in the kitchen?

Of that list you went for the lemon juice as the most niche ingredient? Not the small pungent fish that many people hate?

Yeah. If someone hates anchovies, they won't be making Cesar salad in the first place. And lemons go bad much faster than salted fish.

Potato starch or cornstarch are both fine ways of thickening a sauce. Just mix a little in a small bowl with an equal amount of water, then add that to the sauce.

If you make a little mayonnaise with lemon, you can add dill and mix it with canned salmon for sandwiches. I like to add celery and red onion for crunch (the bones get soft in the canning process)
