    Damn. I didn't need to hear that.

    I'll wait for the Live Test Demo. I've said before that I could live off of nothing but homemade breads, salad and good soups.

    Man, grass don't grow under your feet, do it?

    I'm looking at this one:

    You can set the blade to straight or curved.

    Funny that most of the complaints on these seems to be with the quality of the razor blades. I mean, who in the heck makes dull razor blades???

    I was wanting to make a deep-dish pizza in the countertop oven and my regular Lodge cast iron skillet won't fit in there because of the handle. So off to Amazon I go! Found this braising type pan for less than $30, and then noticed I could also buy a lid for it... so I did. :D Ordered at 1 a.m. this morning; delivered at 9:10 a.m.

    I got a good deal on meal worms in 5 lb bags. I wonder if the Chinese wonder what the crazy Americans DO with all the meal worms.

    So what are you using them for...bluebird food or something else?

    I bought some mealworms for my bird/squirrel feeder once. The squirrels were annoyed, and the birds didn't seem to be enthused.

    I've heard the bluebirds go crazy over meal worms, coming to your windows and throwing fits when the feeder is empty. I have o first-hand experience. My only vague memory of them is as chameleon food.

    I didn't see that but, then, the only "blue" birds we have are blue jays, and they prefer peanuts. Basically, they eat what the squirrels eat, and the two species compete continuously.

    I've not priced meal worms. Isn't that expensive chicken food? But I bet it makes them lay great eggs. I've had issues with some of the local eggs having weak shells and weak yolk membranes, mostly due to a protein deficiency in the chickens' diet.

    My chickens are not just chickens. They are my babies. I raise them from newly hatched and cuss at them for being such pests about wanting meal worms NOW. That is not the only food they get.o_O
