It's the Air Fryer.

But didn't know to make a new thread or what. May have to.

What are some must haves for your kitchens? Tryna find some new utensils/gadgets my set up. IKEA is doing there spring sale and I am thinking about getting some of their turners and stuff.

for whatever reason you never hear men talk about it, but ask any lady and she is going to put the immersion blender in her top 3. maybe dudes just don't make soup or something idk

i got a cuisinart IB a few years ago and can confirm it's wonderful. it takes a job that would take several minutes and turns it into just a few seconds. i pretty much only use it for soups, but i have used it to whisk eggs before scrambling (totally unnecessary). but it's easy to clean and doesn't take up much space

I like to use it on eggs too. It gives them a very uniform color which I appreciate.

I like my small Breville Air Fryer/Dehydrator/Oven/etc.  Since it's just my wife and I, it can mostly replace the oven.

The Charlie Crockett show looks like a blast.

Waxahatchee was amazing.  She brought out Kevin Morby for a cover.  Listening to her belt out 365 was pretty damn impressive in person.

Fox and pearl brunch is back and it's magnificent

Had this again yesterday and every body at the table loved it. They do annoying things there though. Someone wanted ketchup for their breakfast potatoes and they said they don't have ketchup. Like wtf have ketchup dorks. They serve fries.

Second we split their potted cheese which didn't come with enough bread, so got more and charged 5 bucks for a side of bread. I mean come on, that's a third of the dish price.

Still great place I'll recommend to everybody and will go back just dumb restaurant things imo

Is this the BBQ brunch thing or something else?

I'm assuming RJ bolting is a good sign for us snagging Battle and/or Hausen. 

I'm surprised it too him this long to leave.  He's behind Dai Dai already.  We already brought in Dug and CJ to play in front of him.  Castillo will play in front of him.  We're still looking at adding Battle who would take more of his minutes and Hausen who he would perhaps share time with. Tang and Co are trying hard not to play him next year.

however many lbs it was agreed that Avery needs to put on so that he won't get broken...that number of lbs could easily be cut in half with the addition of a guy like DE in the backfield

I watched him in the first couple of games last season and I don't remember him blocking much.  That might be why his playing time went south as the season went on.

He was too small to do anything behind that garbage line they had.  As other's have said, he needs space.  They went with more power at RB as the season went on and, after they fired their OC, I think they used RBs to protect more.  He could be a really nice complimentary piece behind Giddens.  I would think it would probably be Giddens in the backfield two series to Edward's one.  Then Edwards could get some additional snaps out of the slot and maybe PR.

Apparently we have Battle and Cliff on campus tomorrow for visits.  Staff is swinging for the fences this year.

I think some of it is a result of an improved NIL war chest

Many salient points, lol. But I have to ask: why are you on FB reading posts from the 2000s?

The thread title is too vague.  He's doing time travel.

It's wild that they're acting like they don't know the capacity of the thing they're in the process of building.  They know, they're just pretending that they didn't lie to everyone throughout the process.

The B10 could've had Utah a year ago if they had any interest in them.  They weren't strategically waiting until there was a buyout to deal with.

maybe the royals wouldn't be a small market team if their fans would actually pay for whatever channel is required to watch them, good gracious. now more than ever they need you to stop being Midwest Cheap

Seems to me like it's the Royals goddamn job to figure this out and not their fanbase's job to pay for it. 

SKC broke the Bally's deal after they saw how shitty it was for their fans in the first year.  Royals didn't care and the deal was probably as costly to the stadium vote as anything.

What was posted on the now-deleted account?

Generic chiefs/cats stuff and the occasional eff joe biden - it was basically the same as his twitter account

Wish I got Bally sports

I thought Amazon came to some agreement and it's all on prime now?

Only if you are out of market. It's bullshit.

I caught a Spanish broadcast the other day on ESPN+.  I haven't seen it since but I haven't really looked either.

Waxahatchee at the Uptown in about a week.  The new album drew me in.

I love Waxahatchee! She is considered a KC artist now since she lives here full time.

If you make it out, I'll buy you a beer as payment for all of the streams I've watched

One beer seems a bit stingy.

Concert beers aren't cheap

I'm a couple episodes into Fallout. It has potential to be top notch, but it could very easily get too cartoonish. We shall find out!

Walton Goggins gives me hope

I bet Kentucky gets Drew.

I agree.  I wouldn't expect Drew to flirt with an offer this much otherwise.

Unless he just hasn’t secured whatever salary bump/extension he was hoping to get from Baylor yet.

Sure, but I think he could toss down UK's contract offer and Baylor would call up Chip Gaines and they'd match.  I don't think there's a reason for him to play hardball.
