I bet the price the OP paid for that tenderloin in 2012 would look like quite the bargain today 14 years later.
I remember buying BT on sale for $8/lb. around that time and Rib roasts would be on sale for $5-6/lb. around Christmas.
So why did it get deleted already? Someone's a little flag happy I'm thinking.
LoneJack, the bot that posted it has a proven reputation, so I am not surprised it was deleted.
LoneJack - Yeah it’s Kansas, right by Overland Park.
Fun2 - Yes I actually agree in that aspect. Since posting I received another email about a Halloween costume event and a chili competition. I anticipate 90% of the costumes will be Chiefs related, which would only be a few percent up from everyday wear!
don't be so hard on yourself feathers. I'm sure you can figure it out eventually.
Rox - we need Canada's Crown Royal too but the bottling is done in the US so the import ban doesn't apply.
" Is this legal? "
The better question is do they care? Several legal analysts I've read say it isn't legal, but I'm not a lawyer and don't play one on TV. But I do know that even if it is illegal, they won't care.
Not me either.

Checked out other drivers
Decided to check out their seat settings in their new car while at a stoplight only to find out they don’t know how to get it out of full recline when the lights change.
I'd just do as you suggested above and experiment in a bed or two and judge for yourself.
A few years ago my brother brought in a truckload of pine mulch in the fall and tilled it into his huge sandy loam garden and he had a horrible yield the next summer. He didn't tell me about it until after the fact or I would have warned against it. He is in Wisconsin so the ground was frozen for much of the time so not apples to apples with your scenario in the south.
Good luck and I hope you find a solution to your problem.
That's sensible. Pine mulch will decay in a single year, and suck all the nitrogen out in that year. Cedar can last four years underground, so it will pull nitrogen only a quarter as fast. No question that uncomposted material pulls nitrogen out of the soil, but what's important here is how fast that happens. Yes, I have 2 cubic feet dug into a 5x5 bed that I use for collards. As a green, they need nitrogen! But I think I dug in a pile of uncomposted leaves in that bed last year, and had no problems this summer.
hungryfarmer, you need to talk to daninthedirt, he had the same problem and similar question. Also ask klem1 and Kevin (outpatientzero spelled wrong), they are also soil experts just like daninthedirt. All seem like your brothers from different mothers!
Good thing garden"gal" is here to help you, she is such an expert, her spidey sense must have been tingling.
Good luck.
thank you captain obvious
There has been a lot of talk of sump pumps around here lately; with the N'oreaster we had and huge swells here along the coast. No issues for us, but a neighbor lost power, and they had a luncheon planned that day. At the time, it wasn't even raining and the air was mild. Of course no power also means no water so we told them to move the lunch next door to us. And they moved in too, for 2 nights. We have a generator so no issues, and we never seem to get water in the basement as we are high up.
I have an 1860 house and a dirt-floor dungeon with a trench and a sump pump. I sometimes notice the sound when it turns on, and a few times I've noticed it when the float got stuck and the pump didn't turn off. But all in all it's not an annoying noise. If anything, it's reassurig.

There's no point in arguing over common names. There is no right and wrong since usage varies. It isn't true that 'when used everyone understands'. Only scientific names are universally understood.

Both of my grammars died before I was born so I have no grammar rules to obey.

Yes, I would trust Kroger's cilantro to taste like soap.
I like cilantro but do not have a Kroger anywhere close to me. I have gotten some at Aldi, but not lately because I grew some and used that, plus froze some. No fresh cilantro lately, but I probably wouldn't hesitate to buy it and wash it well.

I personally am NOT being careful. I just wash everything and use a brush on celery and tomatoes for instance. There's always been a risk. Yes, I'd buy cilantro from Krogers.

I rarely bake bread so can't answer from personal experience but co-pilot returned this to your query.
Reducing Water in Bread Recipes During Humid Weather
In high humidity, you can safely reduce a bread recipe’s water by about 10% (roughly 1–4 tablespoons or 1/8–1/4 cup depending on batch size) and add it back gradually until the dough reaches the right consistency academiedupain.com+1.
How much to reduce
- Small batches (single loaf): Cut back by about 2 tablespoons Food Lovers Recipes.
- Multi‑loaf batches: Cut back by about 1/4 cup Food Lovers Recipes.
- General rule: Reduce total water by ~10% of the recipe amount academiedupain.com.
Add the reduced water back in small increments while mixing until the dough feels smooth, elastic, and not sticky.
Why humidity changes water needs
In humid air, flour absorbs moisture from the environment, making dough wetter than expected eatopeia.com. This can cause:
- Faster yeast activity and over‑proofing The Bread Guide+1
- Sticky, hard‑to‑handle dough eatopeia.com
- Weaker gluten structure and denser bread eatopeia.com
Reducing water helps counteract this extra moisture and keeps dough handling and baking more predictable.
Practical tips for humid baking
- Measure and adjust gradually – Start with the reduced amount, mix, then add a little more if the dough is too dry Food Lovers Recipes.
- Use cold liquids – Ice‑cold water or chilled ingredients slow yeast growth and help control proofing The Bread Guide+1.
- Consider reducing sugar – Less sugar slows yeast activity in humid conditions academiedupain.com+1.
- Add a bit of salt – Salt can help control fermentation and strengthen gluten academiedupain.com+1.
- Proof in a cooler spot – Use a fridge, air‑conditioned room, or cooled bowl to slow yeast The Bread Guide.
- Switch to bread flour – Higher protein content can improve structure in humid weather academiedupain.com+1.
Example adjustment
If your recipe calls for 1 cup (240 ml) water for a loaf:
- In high humidity, start with ~220 ml (about 2 tbsp less).
- Mix, check dough texture, and add up to 1–2 tbsp more if needed.
By making these small, controlled changes, you’ll avoid sticky dough, over‑proofing, and dense bread, while keeping your loaves well‑structured and flavorful The Bread Guide+3.
yeah Pillog, it seems you said virtually the same thing.as the AI sources.
This is all helpful. What I'm gathering is to adjust according to feel and look.
Yup.

Yes, happens to me too. I love doing basic IT troubleshooting (I am a freak 😄), and I can't find any pattern to it, as yet anyway. It is intermittently a problem here, first saw it many years ago. It is flaring up for me again now.
I am also getting forced logged out as I move around the site lately. That is annoying as heck.
Lonejack, I laughed out loud. Your sense of humor is fabulous. 😄
Thank you all. I'll try reading through before I go back to the 'See more comments' link.
LoneJack and Ally De, I wish I could like your replies more than once!
