Okay, now that we have that out of the way, and the CDC is dropping truthbombs in the whole COVID thing, we’re getting somewhere.
Alright, what else do I have saved up after being out half the day on Tuesday.
Really? Most of the rest of the country knows all about it.
The FBI needs to check its files.
Oh, yeah, and at the other show hearing:
I object to singling out Peoria as it’s a cute river town, but still….
Seeing that would be nice, wouldn’t it.
The nasal pharynx? Does Little Tony think we don’t know what that is? Opera singers learn early on to open it to produce clear tones. Opening it is real easy. All you gotta do is flare your nostrils, lifting the cartilage in the bridge of the nose, and feel the soft palate in the back of the mouth lift, and…probably TMI for those who don’t do this for a living. It does take practice.
IDK, the people – including physicians – seem to be waking up.
Uh…yeah.
I love a man who starts the day with the Lord in His house.
Have a good day y’all.
(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)

Today’s readings come not from the regular Mass readings, but from those of today’s Saint, St. Bernard of Corleone.
EZEKIEL 33:12-16
12And you, son of man, say to your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him when he transgresses; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall by it when he turns from his wickedness; and the righteous shall not be able to live by his righteousness when he sins. 13Though I say to the righteous that he shall surely live, yet if he trusts in his righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but in the iniquity that he has committed he shall die. 14Again, though I say to the wicked, `You shall surely die,’ yet if he turns from his sin and does what is lawful and right, 15if the wicked restores the pledge, gives back what he has taken by robbery, and walks in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. 16None of the sins that he has committed shall be remembered against him; he has done what is lawful and right, he shall surely live.
PSALMS 51:8-12, 17, 19
6Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom in my secret heart. 7Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8Fill me with joy and gladness; let the bones which thou hast broken rejoice. 9Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. 10Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. 15O Lord, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth thy praise. 17The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
LUKE 15:3-7
3So he told them this parable: 4“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? 5And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.’ 7Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
“Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace. Peace will be the last word of history” – St. Pope John Paul II
Holiness is this profound contact with God, becoming a friend of God: it is letting the Other work, the Only One who can really make the world both good and happy. — Benedict XVI
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Okay, this was not exactly funny, but I was on the treadmill thinking, It couldn’t happen to more deserving people.
The number of stupid people that could be killed by this virus gives me hope. Sad, but true.

LMAO!!! OMG, that’s a HOOT!
Saved for posterity!!!
We have cookies!!!
The BQ Project —
So, we’d previously talked about what, conceptually, was in Bisquick. Having the box in front of me, I can say that the listed ingredients are:
Enriched Flour Bleached (wheat flour, niacin, iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid). Vegetable Oil (palm, canola, high oleic soybean, and/or sunflower oil. Corn Starch, Dextrose, Leavening (baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate). Salt, Sugar, Monoglycerides.
Moving up to the regulated Nutrition Facts, we find that a serving is 1/3 cup mix or 40g — and that each serving has 2g of Added Sugars. The Total Fat is 3g, which would be in that Vegetable Oil section. There’s 380mg of Sodium in each serving, which would be about (Na = 22.99, Cl = 35.45, sum = 58.44….380mg of Sodium x 58.44/22.99 =) 965.95mg of salt. [Yes, I know that part of the sodium is in the leavening.] Incidentally, each serving has 150 calories.
The nonfat dry milk is made of nonfat dry milk, vitamin A palmitate, and vitamin D3. It has 80 calories per 23g (which mixes to one ersatz cup of milk).
You can see both why BQ can be a very helpful prepping tool but why homemade mixes may be superior. You don’t need for every 40g of mix to have 2g of sugar and 1g of salt.
Hence why some of us prefer not to use the stuff.
It’s the “gateway drug” of cooking. That’s not to say that it’s the gateway drug of healthy cooking, by a long shot. But in a TSHTF scenario it can be a tremendous resource.
I agree. I’m getting hungry just reading those ingredients.
MMMMMSALT
Do you have a toaster-oven?
I’m lazy. The question should be “how many” – and that’s a state secret! 😉
At least one for reflowing PCBs (especially Nvidia graphics cards) and another for reflowing biscuits 🙂
I bought four boxes of it yesterday. We use it once a week for Sunday pancakes, works just great. (No snooty patooties in our house.) Followed the pancakes up with rigatoni w/Amatriciana and broccoli rabe — so we DO cook. 😄
MMMMMMMbroccolipasta
👍🏻
MMMMMMMMM
What would hurt them to take the sugar out?? It’s not like people are gonna eat this stuff dry out of the box and say I can’t stand this stuff cuz it doesn’t have any sugar?!?? Why can’t people just get the basics, then add sugar if they want?? But NOOOO, if you do want such a product, we might make it for ya, at half the size and double the price.🙄
WHY DO THEY GOTTA PUT SUGAR IN FRIKKIN EVERYTHING?!?!?!?!!! GRRR🤬
Same complaint.
Also, I’ll add salt. Can that not be added to taste, too?
One can mixed once own put it into a mason jar and place it in the refrigerator. Maybe buy a small one and put it in the basement and keeps several jars in there. I know people who do that with home made cooky mixes , pancake mixes and waffles.
Most of the time I mix together evening before what I need in the morning making pancakes or waffles or German rolls. If I do not do that I might skip out making this it is easier prepare before.
I noticed for the bread maker all recipes have sugar up to 4 tbsp. I never put sugar into pancakes or breads. Pancakes people put syrup on it I put blueberries on my one pancake.
Now I am hungry. I think next week I make a German pancake with apples 🙂
Might be going out on a limb here, but sugar can sometimes act as a preservative… if yeast were in the mix, it could also help there (but then it’d go stale rather quickly)…
Wonder if “Jiffy” has an equivalent, with less sugar and less salt? Or Krusteaz?
(Oh noes, there goes Krusteaz the Klown 😀 )…
The BQ Project —
The Biscuit recipe on the back of the box.
2-1/4 cups mix
2/3 cup milk
********************************************
Well, obviously we’re going to be screwing around to make 1/8 of this recipe, but let’s look at some other things first.
First, this is baking at 425. Normal things bake at 350. When you cook at an elevated temperature, you are looking for a different effect on the outside of the item than on the inside. If you want your steak to have a tasty char but be pink inside, you have to cook at a higher temperature than if you want less char and a grey center (which cooks longer). In this case, they want a tanned outside, but soft inside.
For Scott’s “Crazy Eddie” toaster-oven, we’re going to learn many things by doing test runs. If the outside is scorched, but the inside is moist (like, not cooked enough), it will be too hot — and we’ll go down that branch. If the outside is barely browned, and it’s crispy and dry all the way through like a dog biscuit, then the toaster-oven is not hot enough, despite any flames. We don’t have a million dollars invested in this, we can just toss things so long as we learn from them — which reminds me: IT IS SERIOUSLY RECOMMENDED to keep a notebook/logbook. In that we’re playing with bisquick and toaster-ovens, things that solve one problem early on might help solve a different problem much later.
Whenever you’re cooking bread-like things, you’re trying to bake foam, and much of the time this involves getting the bake and the foam to happen at the same time.
Next, the “stir ingredients” bit implies you have a mixing bowl. Fortunately, when you talk about one biscuit, this doesn’t have to be anything too ornate. On the other hand, what you’re stirring with becomes a problem in a smaller container. We are fortunate enough to have two sets of tableware — one partial of an ugly modern setting, and a nice setting we actually eat with. The modernware has flat loops of metal for handles, and the forks have three tines. They work great as cooking forks, because the three tines leaves enough space that they don’t clog. You’ll have to rummage around with what you have.
The next instruction says “drop by spoonfuls”. Screw that — this is one batch, one biscuit.
But let’s consider what “ungreased cookie sheet” needs to be here. Our toaster oven has a shallow metal tray that we haven’t managed to lose over the decades, which would seem to qualify….but we always prep from there. If we’re going to do something like roast kabobs, we’ll take a sheet of aluminum foil off the roll and make it into a little box that fills the tray. When things are done and it’s time to clean-up, toss the foil and the tray may not even need washed.
Mind you, this is not necessarily a completely “toaster-oven” thing. We have aluminum cookie sheets and line them with foil in the big oven. That way, we could have three godkids baking away simultaneously…..
OTOH, the right thing to line your tray is baking parchment….which costs more than aluminum foil and is harder to find…..and is possibly unsafe until we better understand Scott’s oven. [Ray Bradbury’s classic “Fahrenheit 451” was titled from the temperature that paper would burst into flame. The 425 in the recipe is worryingly close.]
But, then, there is the prospect that there is no tray…..in which you get to try to figure out a substitute. It has to fit in the t-o and not have a problem with the thermal “ride” it’s going to take. If it will take more than a minute to get warm, you may have to preheat it. Since you’re only dealing with a single biscuit, there are a lot options open to you.
When I mix up my batches, the tops tend to be spiky and irregular. I look to the spikes and edges to brown rather than the whole thing.
Tomorrow — calc the portions, mix one, and bake it in my t-o. Give portions to Scott, see what his t-o gives him.
Good morning, Coothie!
Southern ladies for generations have sworn by White Lily or Martha White flour, and some us self-rising flour for their biscuits.
Here are two recipes recently posted on QuodVerum:
RECIPE #1 from a cafe in someone’s home town that serves a lot of biscuits:
One cup of self-rising flour and one cup of heavy whipping cream.
That’s it.
Mix the ingredients together, roll them out, cut them, brush them with melted butter and bake them at 420° for 12 minutes or so until they get lightly browned on the top.
———————
RECIPE#2
BISCUITS – *THE VERY BEST*
Mix:
2 C all-purpose flour – preferably White Lily or Martha White
1 T baking powder – If using buttermilk – add 1/2 tsp soda to dry ingredients
1 T sugar
1 tsp salt
Grate in:
3/4 stick frozen butter*
(fluff into the dry mix)
Add (LIGHTLY combine):
1 C (COLD) milk or buttermilk
* Turn wet dough out onto floured surface, form into ball and press to about 1″ thick.
* Cut biscuits to desired size/shape, combine scraps and re-cut until all is used.
* Bake on ungreased baking sheet at 425 F for 12-15 minutes or until tops are nicely browned.
*Can use whole stick of butter

———————
NOTE – I love buttermilk biscuits, so I might try #1 with maybe 1/3 whole milk buttermilk, 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream. I might even try 1/2 and 1/2 buttermilk and sour cream. I like to experiment with recipes, follow my own preferences, and rarely go exactly by a recipe, especially with the herbs, spices, etc.
NOTE – I don’t make white flour breads, cook with white rice or make white gravy these days….so I might try to make some whole wheat biscuits using one of these recipes.
I like, and in old age, need the fiber in whole wheat flour, breads, brown rice.
I have a KitchenAid grain mill and grind my own flour from hard winter wheat – lots of gluten!
My target area has a chain called “Biscuitville” where they practically make the biscuits in your lap. All their ingredients are local, and they’ve got signboards on the walls for all their sources. I’m going to have to be very careful when I get there because their stuff is seriously delicious and I’ll have to only indulge as a rare treat.
This BQ Project isn’t that. It’s about prepping for small amounts (one person) with small resources (toaster-oven) and limited stores (Bisquick in a box).
Wow – I’d love to visit that eatery.
I know you were looking for longterm storage options – not biscuit recipes – but I couldn’t resist. :8->
I’d start with self-rising flour and mix in corn oil or shortening and possibly dry milk or dry powdered goat’s milk, for a biscuit mix.
I’ve swapped emails with the CEO. Has excellence on the brain.
Seriously, they list “here’s the farm we get the wheat; here’s the beekeepers we get our honey; here’s where we get our bacon; here’s where we get our eggs; here’s where we get our milk” on plaques on the wall. They’re all in NC or an easy drive over (e.g. southern VA).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biscuitville
Will save the link, just in case.
DROOL….
And yeah they are GOOD!
If I ate there daily (which would be delightful), I’d be over 350 pounds in a couple of months. They are crazy good, but you have to ration yourself.
We’re not all in the same space — many of us think nothing of milling our own flour and using local ingredients. The BQ Project is about using commonly available items to make something edible in TSHTF circumstances.
Remember – cattle drivers and gold-panners used to swear by ‘hard tack’
The recipe with only self-rising flour and cream reminds me of one I developed to navigate all the allergies/intolerances we have had in our family. It had to be gluten-free and without milk or eggs. Biscuits are already egg-free, usually, and the flours can vary as long as there is some xanthan or guar in the mix. And at some point I went to using canned coconut milk to replace both the milk and the butter. Works quite nicely. You can even use it to brush the tops as in your recipe above.
As we have been talking about emergency rations lately, it occured to me this may be a good solution för “non-allergics” as well. Canned coconut milk will keep a long time with no refrigeration required.
Great ideas. What did you use for flour?
It was always a combination of whole-grain flour; milo, buckwheat, millet, cornmeal or brown rice mixed with the same amount of some kind of starch; cornstarch, tapioca flour, potato starch, possibly arrowroot. Sample recipe:
1 c. brown rice flour
1/2 c. each cornstarch and potato starch
1 1/2 T. baking powder
2 tsp. xanthan or guar gum
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. canned coconut milk, stirred
Shape into biscuits and brush with coconut milk.
Bake as for biscuits.
This mix of flour+starch will not brown as nicely as wheat and will be a bit more crumbly. But to a family who had gone for years without a proper biscuit, they tasted pretty good!
You could use buckwheat flour without adding starch and possibly without xanthan or guar gum.
Oat flour would also work with starch. Sometimes it is not tolerated as a gluten-free option, though.
Another recipe for emergency situations is Scottish Oatcakes. You only need oat flour or blended/milled oatmeal, salt, bacon grease or some kind or oil and water…..and they are made on a griddle/frying pan.
My daughter and I used to make them for breakfast with a similar recipe:
https://www.thespruceeats.com/traditional-scottish-oatcakes-recipe-435823
Quick note — cereals are grasses with edible seeds. Buckwheat is actually a member of the aster family and not a grass. Gluten is mainly found in wheat, barley, and rye — but not so much in rice, corn, and other exotic grains. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluten
And, BTW, exotic grain — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teff
Forgot teff. Yes, teff is wonderful! As a flour, it doesn’t keep for ages, though., except in the freezer. I learned that the hard way.
I have a unopened bucket of Amaranth. Keep it for emergence.
Amaranth Uses & HistoryAmaranth (amaranthus caudatus) is a gluten-free, pseudo-cereal seed with an earthy, grassy flavor, similar to beets. Amaranth seeds can be cooked into porridge, ground into flour, popped or flaked. As a complete protein (containing 18 amino acids), amaranth was an energizing staple for the Aztecs and Mayans who used it to make tortillas, atole and sweets. This tiny seed is a rich source of calcium, iron, manganese, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium! Amaranth contains more protein than most other grains and pseudo-cereals.
Amaranth shares many characteristics with quinoa. Both are tiny seeds that are gluten-free, cook quickly, and are complete proteins. While both have a high protein content, amaranth has 9 grams in a 1-cup cooked serving, while quinoa has 8 grams. Also, amaranth has twice as much iron (5 mg in a 1-cup serving). Both quinoa and amaranth are a good source of magnesium and zinc, as well as Vitamin B6. Both have a fairly bland, earthy flavor, but quinoa is milder and can take on the flavor of a dish more easily than amaranth can. Quinoa can be cooked into a soft, fluffy side dish, whereas cooked amaranth has a much wetter consistency with a bit of a chew to it.
The earthy, beet-like flavor of amaranth pairs well with squash, corn, sesame, cinnamon, vanilla and chocolate flavors, offering endless possibilities!
Amaranth flour is delicious in pancakes, quick breads, crackers, brownies and much more. This tiny grain can also be popped and mixed into protein bars. While baked goods could be made with 100% amaranth flour, the results would be dense, so it’s best to combine it with other flours for a lighter texture. For quick breads and pastries, excellent results can be achieved by using amaranth flour for 25%-50% of the flour in the recipe.
Since amaranth flour is gluten-free it doesn’t lend itself well to yeast breads, or other recipes where gluten development is essential. In recipes where gluten development is desired, we recommend combining 20% amaranth flour with 80% gluten-containing flours.
Amaranth makes a wonderful addition to gluten-free flour blends.
To cook, simmer 1 cup amaranth with 2-3 cups liquid (broth, milk, water, apple cider, etc.) for 20 minutes. Cook uncovered for a drier consistency, and covered for a wetter, porridge consistency. Interestingly, cooked amaranth has a sheen to it, similar to caviar.
Yes, there is amaranth and also quinoa. I forgot those two possibilities. Quinoa I like, both cooked and in baked goods. I use it sometimes as a substitute for bulgur wheat in turkish or arabic dishes. But I have never developed a taste for amaranth. Even a small amount tastes “earthy”as in the description above. Lots of people like it, though.
I like earthy taste 🙂
That is why I like certain breads and never developed a taste for biscuits.
Yup. Been doing the gluten-free baking thing for about 25 years. There is some discussion about oats. If I understand it correctly, the problem is more one of cross-contamination in the field or processing facility. We have always been fine with oats. There are certified gluten-free oats, though.
Of course – hard winter wheat makes BREAD flour – lots of gluten.
For Biscuits – you want soft wheat – that makes ALL PURPOSE flour.
Those sound good. Like the one that uses heavy cream buttermilk sounds good also.
If you really want to go DEEP South – try these with apple butter, cane syrup, local honey, mustard and a slice or smoked or country ham inside.
SWEET POTATO BISCUITS – Paula Deen
Ingredients
• 2 heaping tablespoons sugar
• 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
• 3/4 cup mashed cooked sweet potatoes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2-4 tablespoons (depending on the moisture of the potatoes) milk or cream
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 °F. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate, large bowl, mix the sweet potatoes and softened butter. Add the flour mixture to the potato mixture and mix to make a soft dough. Then add milk a tablespoon at a time to mixture and continue to cut in. Turn the dough out onto a floured board and toss lightly until the outside of the dough looks smooth. Roll the dough out to 1/2-inch thick and cut with a biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on a greased pan and coat tops with melted butter. Bake for about 15 minutes. (Watch your oven: If the biscuits are browning too fast, lower the temperature.) Makes about 15-18 biscuits.
Optional for variety – raisins, currants, allspice, cinnamon, orange marmalade, grated orange peel, cranberries, chopped pecans or walnuts.

SWEET POTATO BISCUITS – Martha Stewart
https://www.marthastewart.com/343818/sweet-potato-biscuits
Ingredients
• 1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading and shaping
• 2 tablespoons light-brown sugar
• 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces, plus 1/2 tablespoon melted butter and more for pan
• 3/4 cup Sweet Potato Puree, chilled
• 1/3 cup buttermilk
Directions
• Step 1
Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. With a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some pea-sized lumps of butter remaining. In a small bowl, whisk together sweet potato puree and buttermilk; stir quickly into flour mixture until combined (do not overmix).
• Step 2
Shape the biscuits: Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead very gently until dough comes together but is still slightly lumpy, 5 or 6 times. (If dough is too sticky, work in up to 1/4 cup additional flour.) Shape into a disk, and pat to an even 1-inch thickness. With a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits as close together as possible. Gather together scraps, and repeat to cut out more biscuits (do not reuse scraps more than once).
• Step 3
Bake the biscuits: Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with rack on lower shelf. Butter an 8-inch cake pan. Arrange biscuits snugly in pan (to help them stay upright). Brush with melted butter. Bake until golden, rotating once, 20 to 24 minutes.
I love the varied hams of the south. You ask for scrambled eggs and a slice of country ham out here and they’re like, “what country?”
Hee-hee!
Note – I reuse scraps until it’s all gone – love the little scrappy raggedy last bits biscuits!
“…. I reuse scraps….”
Scraps? They get ate!
Speaking of ‘scraps’ DO NOT TOSS the fat from the meat you are cooking. That fat can be used for flavoring rice or beans so you can save your olive oil and butter for other things.
It’s so difficult to be cooking for one person. The Fiancee went with this medically-supervised program and doesn’t eat my cooking very often…..which is especially sad because her program is all “low-fat” bullshit that is slowly killing her.
Sorry to hear that 🙁
Yes, Low fat is BAD for you. But very very good for the pockets of ADM and Monsanto who pushed High Fructose corn syrup as a substitute for fat.
If you are not eating fat (which satisfies hunger) and protein you are eating sugars and starches ==> sugar.
Basmati rice is one of the few starches that does not spike insulin as badly especially when combined with protein and fat.
https://bottomlineinc.com/health/prevention/best-kinds-rice-diabetics
I have ‘low blood sugar’ and my insulin level spikes very fast if I eat sugar and then I head for insulin shock and become very sleepy and jittery. Basmati rice (with meat & fat) has zero effect on me while a candy bar will flatten me.
An old discussion on leaky gut and rice, no longer on the internet (no surprise there)
Also the information on rice water being used to remove cholera bacteria is also gone.
Cooked and cooled (Refrigerated over night) Basmati rice has a high amount of resistant starch.
Is Basmati rice a resistant starch?Both wholegrain and white Basmati rice contains a type of carbohydrate known as resistant starch. The higher magnesium content found in Basmati can help with blood sugar control.
The old discussion:
I bought a pail of this rice it is organic.
Arborio rice is a gluten-free cereal grain that can be ground for flour or cooked whole. It’s easily digested, may lower the risk of diabetes, lower cholesterol, and help maintain a healthy weight.
I also like that Non-GMOAll of Pleasant Hill Grain’s whole grain products are natural (non-GMO). Also, PHG does not sell any grains, beans, lentils, pulses or seeds sourced from China.
I’m with you – I throw away very little edible. Even sour milk. It has to be beyond use.
These sound yummy! Will definitiv try them…. with alternative flour and “milk/buttermilk”, of course:)
Don’t bake much, do you?
Bread and bread sorts of things are always cooked at higher temperatures.
I don’t cook anything as much as I’d like, but I bake enough……
Increase the temp and shorten the time to increase the difference between the inside and outside.
Most breads have crusts.
And GOOD breads have harder, tougher, tastier crusts!
MMMMMMcrustybread
To get really flakey, hard crusts takes steam. Had not quite perfected that when I went gluten-free.
I make sourdough bread and bake it in a cast iron pot. The pot is heated before putting the bread in. The crust is hard we love bread like that. Really does not matter if I make it from rye or not. I prefer rye breads or mixed.
I am on my fast again and only eat once a week a slice of bread or one pancake or one bagel 🙂
My husband I think likes the change that is why we have a bread maker. Though when I indulge myself into a loaf of bread it has to be worth while no bread maker bread for me 🙂
We use the bread maker to mix & give the dough its initial rise then bake in the oven… takes some of the drudgery out of bread baking…
Not to join “The Great BQ Discussion” much, but I grew up on my mother using BisQuick to make dumplings, biscuits, etc.
Thanks to all who are posting recipes! Love reading them. Some bring back memories.
Yep. Nothing like Apple Pan Dowdy from Bisquick and fresh, home-grown apples… and a light dusting of cinnamon and sugar…

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.
Rand Paul’s wife to Flip-Flopping Fabricating Fascist Fear-monger Fuhrer Fauci:

the cornered rat.
lovin Rand Paul ! he knows exactly how to trap that detestable rat.
Exactly. SES has beaten THE PEOPLE’S HOUSE and THE WHITE HOUSE on the ability to remove these communist embeds, but that Soviet “feature” has not beaten THE PEOPLE, who can still DENOUNCE THE TOADS.
Have to wonder what it would take to eliminate the SES, and have all government workers, no matter what level, hire-at-will (and pay-for-performance, etc.), just like the rest of us…
Seems SES is the same scourge that “The Mandarins” are in England. An entrenched, unelected, answerable-to-no-one, privileged rulung class holding the real power, leaving the elected (and royalty) as powerless figureheads. They’ve been around a long time, apparenly, as evidenced by Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Mikado”…
There’d none of them be missed…….
Berenson – “This should terrify you if you’ve received an mRNA booster.

Now that Big Pharama, CDC, FDA, NIH have totally unmasked their fixation on profits and damaging folks health, EVERYTHING about mRNA vaccines scares the hell out of me.
Willingness for a regular vaccine, I’ll evaluate the circumstances when the day arrives.
Seems the truth will out, despite the Demonic Left’s attempt to hide it…
The BQ Project —
So, this is a mini-rant about a topic that really doesn’t belong here, but I felt like letting it out.
One of the things in cooking is that there are traditional methods of measuring stuff. If you’re doing brown sugar for Quaker Oats under-the-lid oatmeal cookies, you’re supposed to take a measuring cup, put some sugar in, pack it down with the bottom of a spoon, and repeat until the cup is slightly over-full. Then, you’re supposed to scrape the edge of the cup with the back of a butter-knife to make it even. And then, just to rub it in, the next step after you add the sugar goes much better if the sugar is light and fluffy and not a compacted puck.
On the top of the Bisquick box, it notes: “TO MEASURE BISQUICK MIX: Spoon into dry-ingredient measuring cup; level with knife. DO NOT SIFT.” I have had a bunch of people tell me that you need to have your Bisquick in a container where you can scoop it into a measuring cup in one shot, then level with the back of a butter-knife.
This is the sort of bullshit that made me buy a kitchen scale. If I measure by weight, I don’t have to care about compacting this or compacting that or leveling-off with the back of anything.
So you can expect that I’ll be doing trial things using weighed ingredients, which I will convert back to measured to help others participate.
Our son in law, an M.D. measures their coffee by weight – and it’s always way to strong and bitter for my taste. They add cream/sugar to theirs, so it’s great for them. When staying over at their house, I always add a bit of water.
I use cream in my coffee. I like strong coffee and try only to drink one cup a day. The rest is tea. Using the scale is great they have a special one for tea 🙂
You might also add a little washed out egg shell to the grounds. I was told that pulled out the bitterness in coffees.
A tiny bit of Sodium Bicarbonate added (discreetly) to the water or the grounds helps, too. Just a pinch will do…
Seems to me anymore that the roasters are buying cheaper, greener (unripe) (or both) beans… That adds to the sourness…
Nothing a little Irish won’t help 🙂
(OK, not in the morning, though)…
That’s what some call “grounds for divorce” 😮
I weigh most of my grains in gram and seldom use cup measurements. The scale is most accurate.
Of course sometime one only has the cup choice available.
I often judge the consistency of dough that works for me.
Good idea. Over here, people measure ingredients by weight; it’s the only way to consistently get the same amount/proportion of ingredients. Of course, the recipe has to be correct. Profis, either chefs or food scientists, etc., do that.
(and, softly in the background, John Denver is singing “Toledo Ohio”, “Ah, but let’s not forget that the folks of Toledo unselfishly gave us the scale.
No springs, honest weight, that’s the promise they made,
so smile and be thankful next time you get weighed.” 🙂 )…
Oh, wait: the verse before is apropos too 🙂
“You ask how I know of Toledo, Ohio? Well I spent a week there one day.
They’ve got entertainment to dazzle your eyes: go visit the bakery and watch the buns rise.”…
The doctor that DP linked above – who is postponing her child’s broken bone care due to covidiocy is not worthy of her Medical Doctor license.
She does not say that it is a broken bone, just that she would normally have it X-rayed.
She would also be aware of the situation in her area. Worse case? Child Protective Services takes the kid. Doctor Robinson had that almost happen to his sick child because a nurse thought his other kids were TOO POLITE and that was three decades ago.
If she is a medical doctor, she very likely knows whether it is a broken bone or just a bad sprain. Also the broken bone may not have ‘dislocated’ and therefore just immobilizing the ankle will allow it to heal correctly. (While in Mexico, I set a bone in a fellow caver’s hand, immobilized it and it healed very well. The hand was later X-rayed for a different problem. The Doc wanted to know who did the nice job of setting that bone.)
Bone setting has been done by doctors for centuries WITHOUT Xrays. We need to remember that. I have at least 4 broken bones that were never subjected to x-ray.
I rolled my foot a few years ago – it broke a bone – looked just like that.
I get what you are saying. Immobilizing is critical. They put a cast on mine, however.
However, my grandmother’s broken foot was never the same due to early to no medical intervention in the olden days – and her mobility and posture was affected all her life.
There are horror stories about modern medicine as well as olden times stories. Sometimes things just don’t go well or people make mistakes in judgment.
I had torn ligaments in my ankle and never had an x-ray for it. The doctor was older very skilled and my ankle works wonderfully after 6 weeks in a cast 🙂
Physical therapy he suggested take walks through the meadow. Worked really well.
Was at the docs twice because of my ribs after a fall last week. First doc asked about the pain and said it was probably not a fracture because I said i felt better than right after the fall. then pushed my rib cage together a bit till I yelled. After that, he said it may be a fracture but he is not going to put me in a cast anyway. So, rest and ibuprofen and come back again next week. He is a very good doctor for sports injuries, chiropractic etc. as well as general practitioner. Teaches at a nearby medical school. I went back yesterday and one of his partners looked at it, listened to my deep breathing and said definitively broken as she could hear the friction at the break. Again, rest and manage the pain. Never a word about x-rays from either one. Fine with me.
I wouldn’t necessarily jump that way. In many situations, team doctors will want to ice an ankle for a day before x-rays so they get a better view. Breaking the “get it to public ERs immediately” paradigm is a supportable view.
Thanks for providing an alternate view.
However, getting our daughter to the ER as fast as possible has saved her life several times in the last 5 years – from cancer, sepsis /rapid heart rate – and ketoacidosis (beginning of her diagnosis with diabetes).
In our case – it’s better safe than sorry.
Very much agreed — your daughter is on a different track.
If she has a friend who is a veterinarian, she should take the kid there for an x-ray. We did that with my son once a few years back, because we didn’t have insurance.
Good thinking.
Part of the XRay is having an expert – preferably a good Orthopedist to read it.
True. But a vet is trained to read x-rays, too. And they work on horses, and see quite a few fractured legs.
Vets are better trained than doctors, in my opinion.
I wouldn’t go that far – there is talent, people who care, study, excell and there are sub-par in every field.
It is a LOT harder to get into vet school, and while small animal vets make lots of $$$ your cow/horse vet does not.
In all my years with various large animal vets I only ran into ONE who was not good… and she specialized in goats so her horse knowledge was a bit weak. The vaccination schedule for lambs & goat kids is the same but is completely different for horses.
However she was a very good goat vet!
When I was a child, we had a vet who did both large and small animals and was next door to the livestock auction, maybe even owned part of it.
My experience with vets is limited, and sometimes, our pet was beyond saving.

Candace Owens does a video about the ‘Metaverse’ transhumanism and virtual reality – which the left wants to use to control the masses.
https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2022/01/candace-video-exposing-terrifying-connection-frontpage-editors/
That was revealing. The Left can do a lot of damage with those virtual reality goggles. As Candace points out, they will probably try to use them for classrooms and even work places.
Many of us – and I count myself – are borderline addicted to our internet connection, searches, researching, news of scandals, corruption.
The internet is to our generation of senior citizens what ‘soap operas’ were to our grandmas…
And why wouldn’t we be, having such fantastic company as yourself there?
You are so kind!
Yes, and we are better for it. 🙂
“…The internet is to our generation of senior citizens what ‘soap operas’ were to our grandmas…”
…..
I disagree. Soup operas dull the mind and distracted the masses. They were the ‘circuses’ that Mr Global used to control their serfs.
The internet is more akin to the Printing presses contributions to the Age of Enlightenment.
Very good points.
I remember reading how the underground — I think it was in soviet controlled Ukraine — used mimeograph machines to reproduce and circulate information, It was so dangerous to own a mimeograph, that the collaborators would dismantle it and each would take a piece home.
That really impressed me. It showed how POWERFUL the written word is especially when it can be circulated among many people.
And using the internet….. 😋

Obama: ‘Biden Has Touched Us All’
April 14th, 2020 – BabylonBee.com
U.S.—Former president Barack Obama endorsed Joe Biden for president in a touching, intimate video Tuesday, saying, “Biden has touched us all.”
Many were worried Obama wasn’t going to endorse Biden, but he came through for the DNC establishment, telling everyone how deeply and personally Biden has touched everyone he has ever worked with.
“Many leaders, um, you know, they, um, don’t rub you the right way,”
Obama said. “But not Joe. Joe, see, he, um, touches everyone he comes into contact with, whether they want him to or not. He’s breathing down Trump’s neck in, um, in the race now, and I know he will overcome and grab a come-from-behind victory. I’m very fondle–excuse me–very fond of Joe, and with a stroke of luck, we’ll be able to lick Trump in this election as we grope about for the White House.”
Obama brought his patented brand of eloquent, hope-infused rhetoric to the speech, saying, “We can, um, smell a win this year.”
“Joe’s campaign is very touching, that’s what I’m, um, here to say. So don’t let a Trump victory sneak up on us — embrace Joe Biden in 2020.”
BWAHAHAHAHA!
And the OSF mayor of 10 sq. mi. surrounded by reality has stepped down, midterm, to become the exec dir of people for the American way. Not sure of what to make of it.

Also look at I Timothy 4:1-5:
4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
and II Timothy 4:3-4:
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The new Nephilim…
So, it’s DARPA + NIH / NIAID (FAUCI) + the Wuhan Lab (meaning the PLA and Dictator Xi) + BARIC and his colleagues (UNC, Chapel Hill) + a couple of other US institutions like HARVARD — who DELIBERATELY AND OVER YEARS, created the disaster of “COVID-19.”
The Chi-coms told us back in early 2020 that our country/military were involved. Most did not want to believe it. Trump then ran with the old Wuhan Virus thing, which I had no problem with since they were the ones that participated in the development and released it on the world.
“They All Did It!”
I’m amused by the “Trump is in on it” assertions.

Be (Very) Afraid: World Economic Forum Expands List of Global Fears for 2022
Cyber attacks, militarization of space, extreme weather events, ecosystem collapse, social divisions, wars and the coronavirus pandemic. These are the key worries the World Economic Forum (WEF) highlighted Tuesday as reasons to be fearful for 2022.
A report released by the Switzerland-based organization, headed by founder and executive chairman Klaus Schwab, detailed the grim tidings ahead of the annual elite winter gathering of CEOs and world leaders in the ski resort of Davos.
The event has been postponed for a second year in a row because of coronavirus. WEF organizers still plan some virtual sessions next week, however its Global Risks Report 2022 makes for unpleasant reading.
It is based based on a survey of about 1,000 experts and leaders and in summary says:

The date is interesting, too…

So starting on Sat, Jan15th for two weeks. That would presumably end Jan 29th. Curiously the March for Life is scheduled for on Jan 21st unless dates have been changed. I wonder if there is any connection?

Now we with unveiled faces…per CS Lewis
We are always completely, and therefore equally, known to God. That is our destiny whether we like it or not. But though this knowledge never varies, the quality of our being known can. A school of thought holds that ‘freedom is willed necessity’. Never mind if they are right or not. I want this idea only as an analogy. Ordinarily, to be known by God is to be, for this purpose, in the category of things. We are, like earthworms, cabbages, and nebulae, objects of Divine knowledge. But when we (a) become aware of the fact—the present fact, not the generalization—and (b) assent with all our will to be so known, then we treat ourselves, in relation to God, not as things but as persons. We have unveiled. Not that any veil could have baffled His sight. The change is in us. The passive changes to the active. Instead of merely being known, we show, we tell, we offer ourselves to view.

Another insightful perspective from Lewis (from Bible Gateway):
TO ARTHUR GREEVES: On the seven deadly sins.
10 February 1930
When I said that your besetting sin was Indolence and mine Pride I was thinking of the old classification of the seven deadly sins: They are Gula (Gluttony), Luxuria (Unchastity), Accidia (Indolence), Ira (Anger), Superbia (Pride), Invidia (Envy), Avaritia (Avarice). Accidia, which is sometimes called Tristitia (despondence) is the kind of indolence which comes from indifference to the good—the mood in which though it tries to play on us we have no string to respond. Pride, on the other hand, is the mother of all sins, and the original sin of Lucifer—so you are rather better off than I am. You at your worst are an instrument unstrung: I am an instrument strung but preferring to play itself because it thinks it knows the tune better than the Musician.

Great point.
Proper response:
“YOUR communist tyranny is not OUR democracy.”
Great response!
This
I cringe when anyone says “our democracy,” even conservatives. I don’t like to think of America as a democracy, even though America is by definition a form of democracy, a representative one.
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America
And to the REPUBLIC for which it stands…”
…”One nation, under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.”
Amen!
It is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC and NOT a Democracy. Our founders KNEW how BAD democracies actually are.
That is why the Senators were supposed to be picked by state legislators so the Senate REPRESENTED THE INTERESTS OF THE STATES.
17th Amendment, wasn’t it?
That needs to be repealed…
(OK, I know… kind of like re-peeled…)…..
That comes from the same kind of unhinged thinking that begat the term “your reality”…

Personally I was more disturbed by the amount of aluminum sufate in it, and since ingredients are listed in order, more by weight than salt, which I find scary. Better to cook from scratch, and some of those biscuit recipes really sound good.
Thank you for your kind words.
I believe that some of the issue with aluminum being listed before salt is an artifact of your reader and their funky typography. They list the following in bold: Enriched Flour Bleached, Vegetable Oil, Corn Starch, Dextrose, Leavening, Salt, Sugar, Monoglycerides. I would suspect that those are included in order of weight. After the bold portions, they have fiddly-bits, such as “baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate” after “Leavening”. I don’t believe those are in any order — indeed, the vegetable oil section says that they can use a variety of oils but doesn’t say that this particular batch has any particular oil in it.
That said, there are many nice things you can do if you start from scratch — and, if you have the materials and abilities, I would certainly recommend doing so. The BQ Project, however, is based on, “what can I do to keep running if I have some Bisquick boxes and there’s a “supply-chain disruption”?
I may be wrong, but it’s my understang ingredients have to be listed in order from most to least. I think it’s the law. Someone can correct me if they have other info (Gail?)
I believe this to be the case for ingredients (the bolded stuff), but not sub-ingredients (the fiddly bits).
Enriched flour, for instance, has folic acid in it, which lists it ahead of Vegetable Oil. While I’ll believe that there is more flour than oil in BQ, I do not believe that there is more folic acid than oil.

Boosters are over – by Alex Berenson – Unreported Truths (substack.com)
Good stuff! Thanks. Dropped a comment on there.
I think his position that these will minimize in practice to a sweet spot near the flu shot is spot on. My money is on the Hotez-type vaccine as what will go there, too. But frankly, I don’t want ANY corona vaccine unless it can be shown that life-long boosterism is less risk than life-long disease, and that answer is not coming for a while.
Okay, this is starting to make sense now. 😏😵

I have good news. I ordered from a specific place 4 weeks ago and today my package came. I traced it all the way from original departure to NY. It moved quickly into a container to be disbursed to the the country. The container took good two weeks to move and surprise it came today. All in there as promised. I most likely need to ask Gail or Wolf about something.
One thing is do not go with the cheapest . Do not fill out a form. I am glad my husband buy in other countries all the time because of his train stuff he also sells it when he has stuff he does not want any longer like to UK. He knew what to do and what not to do.
I just got a rapid shipment, too. Very fast. Half the expected time. It was ready to ship when purchased. That is key – is it on hand or not?
Yes I have it came today 🙂 My husband used the place you use. Very good place. He also bought hyq and Azithom.
GREAT choices!!!
Must absolutely love this one from the open!!!
Camel day!
JWST has started moving the mirrors out of launch position. This will take about ten days because there are so many of them.
Quick question:
Will they be taking any pictures of our “flat earth”?
(you know… to PROVE IT… ONCE AND FOR ALL !)
😉
LOL, but the flat earthers maintain we don’t actually put stuff in space, and NASA is a complete fraud.
So they’d never accept such evidence, as it must be faked.
It turns out I actually know a few (FEs)…
(recent converts, I believe)
They tried to pull me in…
Yes ! We have been lied to our whole lives about damn near everything !
BUT…
Suppose they’re right.
What if the earth is flat ?
HOW DOES THAT AFFECT YOU ?

Even Mark Zuckerberg is leaving California for Texas

Missouri is one of the states also getting refugees from higher tax places. I hope they understand that they need to vote for non-Democrats to keep the cost of living low.
I think they’re coming to infiltrate, contaminate, and try to take us over. 🤬🤬
Unfortunately, this also represents another troubling development. Liberals such as Zuckerberg work to create an ideological utopia in which their own companies evidently cannot survive or at least cannot thrive optimally. Then they abandon the places they helped destroy and move on to start the process all over again somewhere else.
Like some parasitic organism..eats and destroys the host and moves on
Fight the Borg like Jean-Luc Picard trying to save the Universe!
Just like the refauxgees here.
They leave their $#!thole, escaping the hell they created, and come here to sponge off of us, who have worked long and hard to create a pleasant, productive, Christian, healthy environment, only to make OUR land into a $#!thole like they just left…
Making US into true refugees, I guess. Or a land full of refuse (i.e. garbage)…

Breaking — Prince Andrew will face trial in U.S.
https://citizenfreepress.com/breaking/breaking-prince-andrew-will-face-trial-in-u-s/
A U.S. judge dismissed his legal team’s motion to have the case thrown out. It’s a civil case filed by Virginia Giuffre. The earliest trial date would be September.
Now bring on cases against Americans.
Think about this…a member of the royal family is going to be tried in a different country–one which broke away from any allegiance to that family almost 250 years ago.
It’s pretty amazing. I’m having a hard time believing it will happen.
Made my day! Will he have to turn up in person.
Also read that it was a civil case, does that mean no chance of getting him jail time.
Out of court settlement, with iron clad NDA.
Civil case, lower bar for guilt? Jury majority rule. Unanimous NOT required.
That’s a bummer, but you’re probably right.
IF she takes a settlement. I would NOT.
She may not, UNLESS she IS threatened on the side. A Deal She Can’t Refuse. So to speak.
Yeah, she needs protection, for sure.
I also wondered if he will have to appear. If he doesn’t, that could affect the jury’s opinion.
I don’t think civil suits can lead to jail time except in the case of not paying child support — but i’m not sure.
It would be great if he would spill the beans on everyone he came in contact with, but I don’t think that will happen.
Well he’s selling his Swiss chalet worth around £18m so there’s plenty for the judge to get stuck into.
Nothing to see here.

A pathologist finally went there:
The young man was pro-vaccine and was required to get it for work.
This is kind of eerie:
I’m surprised he didn’t seek medical attention when his heart rate elevated to the 100s. That’s very uncomfortable and pretty much tells you something is wrong, unless you’ve just been exercising.
Maybe he thought it was just part of the process, and his mother hadn’t been concerned about it. I bet she is feeling bad about that.
This IS the spike protein at work. I had a friend who had Delta. She was relentless about monitoring her heart rate. It stayed elevated in the 100s for days while she was sick. The vaxx does the same thing.
Resting heart rate in the 80s and 90s is rather high… should be in the 50s and 60s. I’d think that would be enough of a pre-existing condition (heart, etc.) that would preclude taking ANY of the clot shots…
Seems the entire medical industry is corrupt… may GOD forgive and help us all…
Cannabis compounds can stop the virus that causes COVID-19 from entering human cells by binding to the spike protein and blocking it from infecting people, study finds.

Tucker Carlson elaborates on Ted Cruz questions. Watch to the end (5:55 minutes)
Tucker is FAILING.
How?
He is missing (intentionally?) a very key piece.
He is FAILING to tie all this to the Whitmer kidnapping trial/plot wherein FBI involvement is proven beyond any reasonable doubt.
Also consider……it took REVOLVER NEWS pushing the Ray Epps story for MONTHS before Tucker took it up.

I know time is short in those hearings and questioners want to get all their points in, but just once I’d like someone to ask, “Why can’t you answer the question?” I want to know if they are saying they don’t know the answer, if they are saying department policy won’t allow them to answer, if the answer is classified, etc.
That would open a new area of investigation, even outside the hearings. The assistant to the primary head of the ABC agency doesn’t know that answer? Is that person incompetent, or worse, lying? And if the agency won’t allow the person to answer, that needs to be investigated. Likewise if they claim the answer is classified.
“i cannot reveal info regarding ‘sources and methods’.”
Their standard lie of concealment.
And this FBI Karen used it during Cruz’ questioning.

Looking for the right job for me and ran across a company called Benchling at Linkedin. They have an opening listed for both San Francisco and Boston. If you wonder why BillG and MarkZ are so twisted, I suspect it has to do with ‘missions’ like this one.
For something that affects the entire human race, one might think they would have the respect to ask permission from us all. But no…
“Over the coming years, biotech will fundamentally rewrite the way we live. Gene editing and cell therapy are dramatically changing how we treat cancer and other major illnesses. Biofuels and biomaterials are transforming the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, and the makeup of everyday objects. Crop science and synthetic biology are producing sustainable and ethical food. Benchling’s mission is to accelerate the research that propels us towards this reality, and magnify its impact, through modern software.
Every day, scientists around the world use Benchling’s applications, platform, & analytics in their efforts to solve humanity’s most pressing problems. For these scientists, Benchling is the central technology they use to conduct their research. Our customers include pharmaceutical giants, leading biotechs, and the world’s most renowned research institutes.”
“We reserve the right to fundamentally change how you live, eat, work, play, care for yourself and others, etc, etc.,
….without your permission or approval…
….for our $profit$ and worldly gain.
Oh, and your children belong to us, not you.”
That is the case in every totalitarian regime that children belong to the state.

Once upon a time, I explained to a unit chief why I liked President Trump after the u/c made a snarky comment at the break area on Turkey-pardon day. I said Trump’s ways are endearing to me, I myself was never known for tact, and I appreciated the many good things he was doing for us all like giving his salary to good causes since he did not need extra $. The u/c did not fire me for speaking up though you are probably right I was in the minority.
Much later, I was told some thought I was naive. That is not a bad thing if the alternative is knowing some around you are doing things they should not. Then, you have to walk away. In a hierarchical management organization where many are veterans, there is the tendency to obey superiors. I never learned any of that so try to treat everyone equally and always say what I believe is correct. It is much easier to remember when one is not fibbing and people know where you stand. Others might not like you, but truth is a gift.
I’d like an answer to that question, actually.

The Real Threat To Democracy Is Corrupting Wealth Inequality
Try to find a developing-world kleptocracy in which the top few collect more than 97% of the income from capital. There aren’t any that top the USA, the world’s most extreme kleptocracy. We’re Number 1.
Imagine a town of 1,000 adults and their dependents in which one person holds the vast majority of wealth and political influence. Would that qualify as a democracy? Now imagine that 100 of the 1,000 adults own 90% of all the wealth, collect 97% of all the income from capital and have virtually all the political power. How can a society in which 90% of the populace is decapitalized, disenfranchised and demoralized by political powerlessness be a democracy?
This is America: a kleptocratic autocracy that serves the few at the expense of the many, strip-mining the bottom 90% under the guise of a fraudulent “democracy” in which only the few wield real power. Recall Smith’s Neofeudalism Principle #1: If the citizenry cannot replace a kleptocratic government and/or limit the power of the financial Aristocracy at the ballot box, the nation is a democracy in name only.

It got cemented in place when the Supreme court said a corporation was a ‘person’ and could donate UNLIMITED AMOUNTS TO CAMPAIGNS via PACs.
Indeed.
I’ve had a lot of thoughts about that ruling recently.
Turns out it was a key cog in the wheel of current injustice and events unfolding.
Supreme Court rulings AGAINST the US Constitution over the last 100 years have been…. NASTY. They have slowly eroded our rights and freedoms. We no longer have the RIGHT to a trial in front of a jury. Juries are no longer told THEY CAN NULLIFY A BAD LAW!
And a wholr lot more. Like an illegal DOES not produce a US citizen by squating and shoving out a baby in the USA.
Californicate actually has hotels where CHINESE WOMEN wait to produce a ‘US Citizen’ which they then take home to CHINA TO RAISE AS A CHINESE COMMUNIST!!!
Death by a thousand cuts.
😢
Earl Warren and the “Warren Court” had an awful lot to do with that. Figures, that he was from Kalifornistan…
And to think that the judiciary was originally conceived to be the most junior of the three branches…
Looking back at almost 70 years, I can now see how far off the rails California was even back then. Why, oh why, didn’t we realize it???

Here’s the video from SD’s post about the concrete wall that is being constructed around the WH as we speak. Evidently webcams are down as well.
I’m glad she’s making those reports, but she said something that someone should never say in a public video like that, IMO. She said she has an amazing ability to dissociate, indicating that has helped her get through the things she has witnessed, and that if she didn’t have that, she would not have been here this long and that she “would have probably pulled the trigger.” I hope that doesn’t come back to bite her at some point.
As for the concrete — that reminds me that Q made some points about people using the term “concrete.” It might have no relation to this. I’m so sick of these people and their communism.
I haven’t watched the whole thing yet. Will be observant. 👍🏻
About 3/4 of the way in, or a little past that.
👍🏻
They have no God, and…in having no God…..they are left naked to fear.
The reaction to fear is a insatiable need for control and rule by dictate.
The lack of God also allows them to believe that “the end justifies the means”.
That fear + belief – God = communism.
Such people are doomed.
What does it profit a man to gain the world but lose his soul?
Unfortunately, we must suffer with them before we may live in peace and happiness forever without them.

I just searched the Q drops and didn’t find ones referencing concrete. I guess I was mixing that up with people noticing how certain “elites” were talking about concrete at various times.

They have been working to bankrupt and drive the independent farmers out of business for decades now.
We are witnessing nothing less than the culmination of decades worth of planning and preparation.
If food goes that way itll be a war in a heart beat.
Hell yeah. So you get inside with the magikal passport, buy your food and toilet paper………….all those roaming looter gangs are going to be waiting.

Yes and military families wont all be on the bases if used against people, same with national guard. We arent a small country and the military has been rotting in liberal leadership. Either they stand down or get out of country assistance. No matter what, its a bad future in the immediacy.
I wouldn’t put it past them. At this point it’s speculation, right?
Speculation?
Couple thoughts.
At this point it is speculation.
IF, NOT SC rules to uphold / support mandatory injections, reality within weeks. If that long.
The collapsing Covid AND Covid injection hoaxes, may help the weak kneed NOT SC, make the obvious decision, to trash mandatory injections.
Yes, if SCOTUS comes down on the side of mandates, it’s going to get bad, fast.
If the Craptastic Court approves lawless mandates, that will be the final and LONG overdue END of the Craptastic Court.
I ignore them, the same way I ignore Leftist media.
The next anti-Constitutional fantasy they approve will be their last one, as more and more people ignore them and their corrupt ‘rulings’.
Go ahead, make my day, Crap Court.
AND Scott, very nicely makes my point. 🤓
Hopefully with the evidence about the lethality and ineffectiveness of the vaccines now coming out, SC will be FORCED not to ‘go there’

That one decision may well be the difference between war or peaceful resolution to current affairs.
The federal gov’t DOES NOT have the power to force people to take experimental drugs that
1) have not passed long-term human trails/studies
2) have not been approved under normal use
3) for which the makers have no legal liability whatsoever
4) force people to become uncompensated lab rats for corporate profit
5) Etc.
.
IF the majority of the court rules that the fed gov’t does have this power, then the moral and legal authority of the SCOTUS will be destroyed.
Very nicely put.
Same thoughts just not as articulate.

On the other hand, Qtree has an excellent track record of correctly reading the tea leaves, and if you and others might agree that this is likely that this is where things are heading, well….
I think they will try in some places. The state AGs better quash it.
Kalifornistan and New York, no doubt.
Gruesome and that Harridan from Screwed York have infinite contempt for the “subjects”, and infinite greed toward payola, be it from RED China, Sauros, Schwab-bots, or other Kabbalists…
Slice off the two coasts, and things would improve a lot… Sad thing is, there’s still quite a few good folks trapped there…
Maybe a general strike like France does (seemingly) every few weeks would help out…
“The Biden admin looks set to take gov’t control of the US food supply…
…and supply blue states while denying food to red states.”
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Deny food to Montana? Home of cattle ranchers, wheat and grain growers, grain and feed mills, farms, backyard gardens, farmer’s markets, Mormon canneries, and more wildlife than you can count?
Right. Try it assholes.
Montana….with all of it’s greatness and resources…..cannot supply 320 million people.
Wish it could.
The goal is to divide and conquer….one piece at a time.
Montanans may be ok for now….but if/when they are the last standing, well….
Lord, no, of course not.
But Nebraska is similar, and Iowa, and Oklahoma, and much of Pennsylvania, and lots of other states.
We have the food, and lots of places don’t. I really think we are headed for some sort of national conflict over resources. I hate to think it, but I do. Red states aren’t just going to put up with it. Something is going to break.
I don’t have a crystal ball, but I honestly do believe their scheme is failing and they have no other moves left other than to play out the hand they have longed planned to play.
They are damned if they don’t, and they are damned if they do.
So they do.
Same as Hitler, who refused to surrender and made the allies go all they way to Berlin.
I think you are correct. The fact they would actually SAY they are going to RATION FOOD is NOT going to go over well with the spoiled rotten brats on the Left.

I’m sure it’ll work out better for us. 👍
The white hats in the german military attempted to assassinate Hitler dozens of times, and paid with their lives and those of their families, Scott.
And, like the rest of us, you have ZERO idea of what has been happening behind the scenes and who has sacrificed what in order to try and stop or sabotage what is happening.
Project Veritas Whistleblowers for one example.
Yes. Thank you. 🙂
“The white hats in the german military attempted to assassinate Hitler dozens of times, and paid with their lives and those of their families, Scott.”

Yeah, I’ve seen that show on the history channel too… 👍😂
And they failed, big-time.
And as I have said many times, if our hopes are on some small group inside the machine, as opposed to a clear majority in control of the military apparatus, then we’re just fooling ourselves because we like the narrative.
.
“And, like the rest of us, you have ZERO idea of what has been happening behind the scenes and who has sacrificed what in order to try and stop or sabotage what is happening.”
___________
And as I have said many times, if anything was happening ‘behind the scenes’ of a sufficient nature to actually make a difference, there would be evidence of the enemy taking damage.
The enemy must take damage in order for the enemy to be defeated. In earlier times this was well understood…
As I have also observed many times, if there is or was a significant contingent of white hats within the government, doing anything substantive at all, they have maintained absolute 100% operational secrecy for at least 5 years now.
No force of such required size has ever kept 100% operational secrecy in the history of the world, at least to my knowledge.
And as I have also observed many times, any ‘plan’ that results in the deaths of 100s of thousands of Americans and a foreign adversary taking over the United States government is, by definition, the greatest military failure in modern history, if not in world history.
But it’s always fun to pretend otherwise! 👍
So, for it seems the hundredth time,
What do YOU plan to do?????
Right! DAMNED!
Look up the various Agendas from the UN (21, 2030, 2050, and now 2060(!) ). Then look up “re-wilding”…
There are plans to close off an enormous amount of land in the USA, and “give it back to nature”, read: allocate it to the elites…
Well, we just can’t let that happen. That’s war.
I’m sure VSGPDJT knows that, and that had something to do with moving the Department of the Interior TO the interior, as it were… and that probably had a lot to do with the ferocious attacks on the Secretary of the Interior (can’t remember his name, sorry)…
Ryan Zinke, Montanan.
The whole middle of the country will be alright so long as the infrastructure holds out. Every state has dairy, at least. And buy local has gotten to be a big thing.
Sounds like a completely controlled economy. The Bye, Dones: The Hunter, and the Gatherer…
Hmmmm. Wonder where they got that idea?
RED China, perhaps? Or their (DE)Mentor and Master, Satan…..

D A R K WINTER….INCOMING.
BiteMe called it.
BiteMe AND his HANDLERS are engineering, the DARK WINTER.
Just as we see the entire Covid hoax AND Covid injection hoax collapsing. Damn near imploding.
“Never let a crisis got to waste”
….which, of course, is preceded by…
”Create the crisis you seek to politically exploit.”
That sounds like the regime.
The dark winter is for all of Biden’s supporters who believe in his ideology, The rest of us are prepared for what ever comes our way. I feel good what I stored even if heat goes out or gas. I have my pizza oven if all fails.
This winter is going to be ok for most of us and I am grateful to all of you who have contributed to prep work.
I thought of one item I still need that is brewers east in case I have to go vegetarian.
Yes, WE will be fine. The pansy-assed liberals relying on the government to feed them, not so much.
Honestly, I am ready for the whole system to burn down so we can start over from the ashes. I’ve had about enough.
They know that.
That “we will be ok”…..for a time.
But supplies run out. Meanwhile, they create the illusion that there is no scarcity….within blue areas….
….and, moreover, liberals LOVE to pretend not to know things in order that they can support that which they should not.
”Is the Biden admin starving red states? No way, man. We got food. You’re delusional. Stop fomenting insurrection!”
In rural areas, we grow our own. And the bigger operations all around us grow and raise more. I don’t believe for a second that red state governors will confiscate our food to send to blue cities. They’d have a mob with pitchforks on their hands.
True.
But you are speaking of raw product.
I’m talking about the processors and distributors, and possibility the fed gov’t taking them over.
But I am quickly, and admittedly, getting outside of my lane.
It will be something to watch, for sure.
Oh they already went after the small processors. That was what the Food Safety Modernization Act was actually about…. Driving out the Food Cartel’s competition.
Sadly all too true.
Lol, don’t worry about speculating “out of” your “lane.”
The interesting speculation is what I’m here for.
Speculation from others about possible futures has saved my bacon a few times!
“But supplies run out. Meanwhile, they create the illusion that there is no scarcity….within blue areas….

Sounds like it’s pretty clear what’s going to happen then. Everything will just get worse and worse and worse, and we’ll analyze it in excruciating and exacting detail, every step of the way.
I guess the best plan is to just wait them out, until they all grow old and die.
Or we do.
Whichever comes first… 😁
Amen on that Aubergine
🙂
I feel the same. The other day I was stressed for the first time. I think police at my door was a little much. I see a darker side of of their visit in today’s climate.
Yes, and that is sad commentary.
Yes it is 🙁
Probably due to Iran’s recent comments about sending hundreds of suicide bombers to the U.S. plus the wide open southern border. Then again, they know what they have been doing and what justice would look like.
They probably have already entered through the southern border. Lots of those in the caravans did NOT look South American, Mexican, or Mexican-Indian… but they sure looked Middle Eastern. And there have been reports of known terrorists being seen, and actually a few being caught (!) on their way through. Probably released immediately by Bye, Dung’s shills…
He went there? That’s conspiracy territory.
Concrete fortress. My concern is the they’ll try something over the top. And there’s an Arizona rally in 2 days.

“40 years of experience working in the criminal defense field as an F.B.I. Agent”
Criminal defense field as FBI agent is one way of saying informant outreach
“We protect our own”
The lawyer says Epps is not an FIB informant. But he doesn’t have to be an informant to do some work with/for them. He doesn’t have to be an agent, and he doesn’t even have to be on their payroll. It could be a wink-wink situation with no paper trail.
Too focused on FBI. What if he was a part of the House/Pelosi involvement in this and doing their bidding.
It was whoever was behind 9/11, the Patriot Act, the formation of the Oath Keepers and Janet Napolitano’s Department of Homeland Security’s swivel from targeting Muslim Jihadist to targeting Military and law enforcement vets.
See my comment HERE.

Cnn Mostly Peaceful Protest
Many more at the link
My 2cents…they really thought we would go bananas and bring our own destruction………………lol…we didn’t. It’s got to chap their hide
Instead of going ape 💩 violent as they keep prodding us to do, we became INVENTIVE and fought them LEGALLY.
Leftists are nothing if not massive projectionists….they expected us to do what they would have done.
But, we believe in God, while they believe the end justifies the means.
And so they consistently underestimate us, and they cannot understand us.
Meanwhile, we understand them all too well, for we are sinners, too.
The FBI agent-turned-lawyer said….
…who cares.
Point is…
….it makes NO sense that the FBI has not arrested and charged Ray Epps with anything, particularly given the now-widespread public video evidence of his involvement in events of Jan. 6.
MOREOVER….
We know why.
And the answer comes from the trial involving those accused in the plot to kidnap MI Gov. Whitmer…..another FBI construct and entrapment scheme, designed to generate a political narrative that would support the latger and more important Jan. 6th narrative.
In short……Epps won’t go to prison without spilling the beans, and the FBI won’t charge him because if it did then others inside the FBI would STOP being patsies for these FBI games.
.
If anything Epps is the person who actually incited the crowd.
So did John Sullivan and his cnn sidekick.
Moreover, Capital police were instructed to remove barriers.
Then, in the aftermath, about half a dozen or more “committed suicide”.
Funny how that happened.
Do not forget the guy rolling up the temporary plastic fence and then pulling the T-posts.
WHERE IS HE???? WHO IS HE????
He was rolling up this stuff:
yep again on that…that guy went poof away, like a good spook.
I think it’s right not to get caught in the “he’s a FIB asset” trap ( H/T RF21). They’re all one big anti American cesspool and probably use all assets in each other’s plots.
Wasn’tthere some weird factoids about “redneck portrayer” Fanone ? Like he hadn’t been on the ground in a LE capacity in a long time ? Something I can’t recall.
He was the Pelosi beefcake show pony
We do not know how many were on the Soros payroll but you can bet your boots that some of the violence, like the window breakers were financed by Soros.
THEN THERE ARE THE CHINESE!
Let’s not forget the Chinese. They were at the riot that burned the Church, St. John’s, across from the White House. They were caught speaking Chinese on tape.
ohmygosh !!! it makes me want to go nuts..it’s not even cold anger for me anymore…it’s something way more 😡
Yep ..so many things that were odd and now we know why.
ALWAYS remember; they are “allowed” to LIE to protect a C.I. or agent “undercover.”
“We can’t answer questions having to do with sources or methods.”
“We can’t answer questions having to do with sources or methods.” = He is one of ours and still working for us.
Remember he is part of the OathKeepers and head of the largest group in the USA. <=== FBI HONEY TRAP!
Yep.

Well well well
Imagine that.
Yeah, they NEVER do that for a Deplorable do they?
Think Tucker Carlson and Rand Paul and others.
We don’t have people on the payroll to do such things.
They do. And long have.

“War is peace.Freedom is slavery.Ignorance is strength.”
― George Orwell, 1984
Here is one of the articles from the cover:
“The Relentless Reality of Anti-Fatness in Fitness”
https://www.self.com/story/anti-fatness-fitness
I’m skimming through it and am still trying to figure out what point it is trying to make.
Searching for answers?
Here you go…
https://www.gotquestions.org/God-gave-them-over.html
I think it’s saying that people can be both obese and fit, and that we are discriminating against those who don’t fit both the idea of what fitness is perceived to be, as well as those who literally can’t fit into gym clothing and equipment.
The article advocates for legislation to prevent/stop fat children being given lower grades, fat employees being paid less, etc. — which are problems I’ve never heard of.
There was nothing in the article about blood sugar levels, pre-diabetes and diabetes, the foods people eat, or blood work in relation to health.
“I think it’s saying that people can be both obese and fit…”
Well, you can’t. Sorry, but that is just the bald truth.
You can “fake it” sort of, if you are fat, but you are NOT really fit.
Body fat is hard on your organs. It’s hard on the joints. It causes diabetes in the longer term. It contributes to infertility and menstrual problems. There is nothing “healthy” about being fat.
This is just another offshoot of “everybody is ok,” the same as acceptance of transgender and other issues. We can’t have standards, because that’s “mean.”
“….There is nothing “healthy” about being fat…..”
AMEN and I have been fighting the problem for years.
….
It is pretty darn clear The USDA, FDA and the Food cartel MADE AMERICANS FAT! — INTENTIONALLLY!
Yep.
And Why?
Scarface told us.
“First you get the money….then you get the power…..”
Oh yes!
The introduction of corn syrup instead of white sugar created a cascade of obesity and diabetes. Add in the fact that the internet has made so many people sedentary, and viola’; where we are today.
Annnnnnd,
They can make an ENORMOUS amount of money selling drugs, treatments, equipment, food, additives, etc., etc., etc. to “help” the situation…
A waist is a terrible thing to mind….
But an endless source of profit to the food “industry” and “Deep Chem”…
I feel a song coming on… Weird Al weighs in: 🙂
And here’s one with Michael Jackson’s “Bad” side-by-side (amazing how close Al’s parody is to the original (replace underscores with dots):
https://www_youtube_com/watch?v=bUkakGrBzsg
I hear you. The article starts off with the experience of a lady who had participated in strenuous sports (I forget what) and wanted to shake up her fitness routine. She already was doing weight training, etc. When she went to a gym for new ideas in personal training, they treated her (a size 16) as if she didn’t know anything about fitness or calories. So that’s where the article is coming from.
Funny that you don’t see any elite athletes who are size 16, except maybe in weightlifting or wrestling. I never see amateurs of that size who can keep up, either.
The article addresses the challenges of plus-sized women who want to go to a gym. Yet, going to a gym is not required to exercise. A simple internet search shows many things that can be done from home.
You’re spot on, and the article doesn’t touch these subjects:
Well, size 16, depending on your natural build, can be not terribly “obese.” If you are 5’11” and a size 16, that’s one thing. If you are 5’2″ and size 16, that’s another.
I just don’t like glorifying what is OBVIOUSLY unhealthy, like the photo of the woman on the cover. All that belly fat is BAD.
And the sizing of clothing changes depending on manufacturers.
There’s so many factors. Seriously. Bust is part of it. I’m two different sizes top and bottom due to that.
It’s all individual. That’s why I do what I do. As an herbalist, I help people figure out the best course of action for THEM to be the healthiest possible.
“Create the crisis you seek to exploit, then provide the ready-made answers for political gain and profit.”
So…
Create the victims, then tell them you have the answers to their misery…
…if they just give you control and do what you say.
Fat people…..like gays and trannies….heck, anyone…..don’t want to be held accountable for their choices and decisions.
Everyone must exercise self-discipline in managing the ways they are broken and wounded….be it in mind, body, or spirit.
Predators seek to absolve people of that accountability in exchange for power, money, and control.

”Give a man his daily fish and you make him dependent upon you. Teach him to fish, and make him provide for himself, and you give him his freedom and independence.”
My prediction is that if this crap is allowed to morph into every kind of ‘ism’ they can think up…eventually all competition for any sport except the Roman Arena sports= pro football and BB……………………..they abhor pride, they want division not loyalty to anyone/team, they don’t want tradition or comradery
Yep. “Participation Trophies” for everyone.
The snowflake woke, broke, eternal bad joke DEMONRATS have lost the human race…
“Create the crisis you seek to exploit, then provide the ready-made answers for political gain and profit.”
..sounds alot like the coof..
create a disease that debilitates people, then once you get caught,insure they go to your hospitals with care for the rest of their lives.
Paid for by the US taxpayer..Medicare II , AND obama care is fixed,enshrined forever . 🤔
There is that, but there is also a TREMENDOUS amount of bad science being followed when it comes to nutrition. Plus, the reality that convenience foods are generally cheaper than whole foods also contributes, especially on a limited budget.
It’s a vicious circle.
Yep. They’ve come out with a new sports watch for that…
FatBit… 🐷 😀
Amazing that they didn’t need a fold-out cover on that one…..
Probably needed extra postage, in any case…

The man who credits himself (in large measure) for gaining control of the world through software would naturally seek to gain control of the world itself.
It’s a natural progression.
“Power corrupts…absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
And he’s been using “customers” as beta- (and recently alpha-) testers for decades…
And his desire of tying one PC to one instance of an OS in perpetuity (i.e. replace something, you need to buy a new copy of the OS) gave rise to the GUID (Globally Unique IDentifier) which “neatly” morphs into a GUID for people, which then (possibly) morphs into “The Mark”, or at least lays the groundwork for it….
BillyGhoul’s father was a Eugenicist, associated with Margaret Sanger. He seems to be another rotten, wormy, Satanic apple that didn’t fall far from the tree… the tree of death, in his case…
“…Bill Gates Says Covid Vaccines are missing two key things….”
….
Yeah, SAFETY and EFFICACY.
The Clot Shot doesn’t work against the virus and it maims or kills you.
The BQ Project….
Okey-dokey.
According to the BQ Nutrition Facts, a “serving” is 1/3 cup, or 40g. That means that a “cup” would be 3 servings, or 120g. The recipe calls for 2-1/4 cups — which would be 270g (120+120+30). One eighth of that (for a single biscuit) would be 33.75g.
According to the NDM Nutrition Facts, a “serving” is 23g, which makes a cup of pseudomilk. The recipe calls for 2/3 cups milk, so it needs 16g minus 1/3g of NDM. The pseudomilk instructions say to use 3-3/4 cups water to make a quart (4 cups) pseudomilk. If you look at that in 1/4 cups, that’s 15/4 cups water + NDM = 16/4 cups.
The water measure, then, is 2/3c x 15/16 (milkization) x 1/8 (single biscuit), or 30/384 cups. Since a cup is 12 ounces, and an ounce is 3 Tbsp, a cup is 36 Tbsp, and the water measure would be 2.8125 Tbsp, or drops shy of an ounce. Just for fun, we can multiply that by 8 and get 22.5, then “milkify” it by multiplying by 16/15 to get 24….and 24/36 of a cup is what the recipe asked for.
The method would be to preheat the t-o with its tray to 425. I’ll weigh out 16g of NDM, pour 3 Tbsp of water into a shotglass, put the NDM in, and stir. Then I’ll weigh out 34g of BQ, into my “mixing bowl”, stir, and drop onto a sheet of aluminum foil marked with a star. I can then pull the tray out of the oven, lift the sheet of aluminum, and drop it on the tray, putting back in the t-o for 10 minutes. From then, observation to ensure the top gets sufficiently browned. Once that happens, set foil aside to cool.
I can then roll into batch #2, which will be marked by a teardrop. That’s the feeling you have when you go to make something and realize you have no NDM. 34g of BQ and 3 Tbsp of water.
I think I rather try to milk my goats instead.
The point is to get real information. Batch one came out way too much like a pancake. Batch 2 is looking more promising so far — I reduced the water to 1.5 Tbsp.
Or….you can go shoot a deer and eat off of it for a month, served along with pre-stored rehydrated rice and beans.
Jus’ saying.
Or last year’s buck goats…..
Hubby just informed me, after the last raid on the groc store both freezers are bursting.
So the young bucks are safe… for now.
So the bucks stopped there? 😀
You’d have to go a ways before shooting a deer wouldn’t cause a commotion. I’m in the SF Bay Area.
Easy fix when so inclined.
I shot my very first turkey with my new shotgun last year
Scared the hell out of everyone in the frozen food section. 😁
LMAO
😂 👍
I wish you weren’t. Fwiw, I have family there, too, and wish they weren’t either.
I used to envy them….where they are….decades ago.
The tech-xodus to Austin/Texas says even leftists know what’s coming.
Facebook/Zuckerberg just announced it was moving to Austin. Bastards.
And use the shot glass for something useful 😀
Oops, looks like there’s 2 Tbsp per Ounce. Revised liquid =
The water measure, then, is 2/3c x 15/16 (milkization) x 1/8 (single biscuit), or 30/384 cups. Since a cup is 12 ounces, and an ounce is 2 Tbsp, a cup is 24 Tbsp, and the water measure would be 1.875 Tbsp, or drops shy of an ounce. Just for fun, we can multiply that by 8 and get 15, then “milkify” it by multiplying by 16/15 to get 16….and 16/24 of a cup is what the recipe asked for.
Hmmm….that looks far too wet. We’ll see what it looks like in 10 minutes.
The NDM looks like sand but doesn’t weigh anything, then when I put the water in and mixed…..I don’t think the NDM absorbed the liquid it was supposed to fast enough.
Again a Cup is EIGHT ounces!!!
I enjoy the Bisquick posts, cthulu. Thank you for sharing, and I hope you post more.
A quick reminder to everyone else that a lot of prepper guides recommend adding Bisquick to your preps because it’s:
Yeah, obviously from-scratch homemade biscuits and pancakes are going to knock the socks off toaster Bisquick (no offense to anyone posting recipes–I enjoy reading those, too), but that’s not the point here. The point is to have something edible ready-to-go in the larder when milk, butter, refrigeration, or getting to store aren’t available options. This is emergency food. It’s not supposed to be a brag-worthy homemade dessert with the finest ingredients. It’s supposed to supplement your other emergency grub and keep you from starving in an emergency or engineered food shortage. That’s the point-of-view cthulu is writing from, and the snark he has gotten for it over the past day or two is disappointing.
We need to blow off steam.
However I would STILL prefer to try milking my goats than deal with powdered milk – BLECH!
I have Bisquick, powdered milk and canned milk in stock. BTW…. AND a goat milking stand!
I mean, yeah, I’d prefer fresh goat milk in a SHTF situation, too. And homemade buttermilk biscuits. And fresh venison. But I’m going to plan realistically, assume none of that will be available, and keep some Bisquick in the pantry along with powdered milk and instant potatoes and other processed food people turn their noses up at because it’s better than going hungry when the power is out for several days or the grocery stores unreachable/empty because the local government hasn’t plowed the roads after a major snow storm or there’s government-enforced dairy rationing or…any number of disasters. It’s good to have this stuff around and know how to cook it just in case, and a lot of people seem to miss that point with the, “Well, this from-scratch recipe with these fresh-from-the-farm ingredients that that require refrigeration/electricity/burdensome equipment in an emergency is way better than your Bisquick creations.” Yeah, no kidding. That’s not the point here.
I am unaware of concerns re: electrical shortages, necessitating what you are talking about.
That seems outside of all that has been discussed up to now.
My comment about power outages was intended from a general prepping perspective, not anything specific to what SD has warned about.
I started my own prepping journey years ago after a major blizzard completely wiped out the local food supply chain. 25+ inch snowfall made it impossible for delivery trucks to resupply the local grocery stores for 1-2 weeks. That was my first encounter with empty grocery store shelves, and it was scary. Prepping for natural disasters is prudent, too.
The next wake-up call came in the past year when I had two major 24+ hour power outages–one in the winter and one in the summer–coupled with the Cyber Polygon warnings about cyber attacks on the electrical grid (more on that later). Those power outages, especially the one in sub-freezing weather, made me appreciate the need to 1) have a way to stay warm, 2) have the means and fuel to cook a meal in an extended outage, 3) have meals that are quick and easy to prepare in an emergency with limited fuel, ingredients, and equipment, 4) have a plan for lack of refrigeration.
You mentioned above hunting deer. Do you have a plan to cook, serve, and store it during a long-term utility outage? I’m not snarking. This is a genuine logistical question. Additionally, if you are out hunting for deer due to food shortages, then 1) you’ll probably have company, and 2) should expect a deer scarcity as others are forced to hunt, too.
Now back to cyber attacks on the electrical grid. As recently as yesterday, the World Economic Forum was once again
warningthreatening cyber attacks. They have been warning about cyber attacks on utilities since Cyber Polygon in 2020, which makes me suspect that cutting the utilities in in their playbook. I recommend preparing accordingly. Stock some food that can be easily prepared in a utility outage, store water, have equipment and fuel to cook that doesn’t require utilities, have a way to stay warm, and have a plan for bathroom needs.Has anyone cooked BQ over a camp fire? If so, lessons learned?
If you feel like experimenting, there are a lot of camping-specific Bisquick recipes out there on the internet (Campfire Drop Bisquick Biscuits is really a popular one).
I’d actually hope that practiced skill with BQ and toaster ovens might provide a variety of alternatives as needed (BQ over a camp fire, BQ on an engine block, BQ on a backyard BBQ….).
I’ve done two bakes towards single serving biscuits, and I’m not happy with that yet to move on.
Very much this. And people have been conditioned to order-out or pick up fresh goods or get some frozen dinner. The Bisquick toaster-oven concept is to strip out some finery and do basic things when things are not as well as they could be.
Your BQ project has definitely motivated me to make up some more gluten free biscuit and bread mixes like I used to do, this time with ghee or coconut oil so they don ‘t have to be stored in the fridge. I have all the ingredients, but if there comes a situation where we have to adjust to multiple difficulties, I will be glad the work is reduced to just adding water and stirring.
OK, review — Batch #1 weighed out the BQ in the mixing bowl. In a separate tiny glass bowl, I measured out 16g of NDM — which turns out to be an awful lot. I had my shot glass with 2 Tbsp of water (after having caught and fixed a major calculation flub by looking at the markings on the shotglass) and mixed it into the tiny glass bowl. Then I took that pseudo milk and mixed it into the BQ and poured it on a sheet of tinfoil, then put the tinfoil in the tray in the oven.
The results were something, but they weren’t biscuity. More like a pancake. Flavor wasn’t bad. The preheated tray made the bottom quite brown. I had one more accident on this one — when I came in to check on it at 10 minutes, it had run out of time. So I had to put in another quarter and turn the knob. I don’t think its flaws can be blamed on that, however.
Batch #2 weighed out the BQ in the mixing bowl, measured 1.5 Tbsp in the shotglass, mixed, and put on tinfoil — which went into the t-o on the tray. The good news is that it looked like a biscuit. Took forever to get browned (NDM assists browning?). Bottom was quite brown. Tasted ok. But it was crumb-y — if you tried to cut off a piece or pull off a piece to put some butter on, it was like shattering glass — crumbs went everywhere. (NDM appears to assist integrity).
I’m not yet ready to recommend something to Scott, yet. Then, again, I bought 1.7 kilos of BQ, and I’ve only used 70 grams so far.
A cup is EIGHT ounces…NOT 12!
I assume that error messed up some of your calculations…fyi…
What color is Paul Manafort’s hat? He did an interview with Hannity tonight.
Manafort generally knows his way around a snake-pit.
Alrighty then. My daughter gets married this Friday. I apparently have to participate in the event and get dressed up. My suggestion to go to Vegas like me and my wife did was totally ignored so here we are.
I expect to be out of comms for a couple of days while I deal with this. My wife has told me to shut up and do what I am told and don’t screw things up. A rough couple of days ahead while I act like a soy boy democrat. 😡
Mazel Tov!!!
Just remember how much you love your wife, and love your daughter, and are willing to tolerate your new son-in-law enough that he’s still breathing…..
Be a man and suck it up.
Congrats!
