    I've heard "bought the farm". I wonder where that's from.

    Sure. I bet you can work both "dehydrate" and "air fry" into the talk.

    Speaking of which, air fried loaded potato bites are on the menu for tonight, a.k.a. Adult Tater Tots! I just got my ricer, and I ain't dead yet!!!

    Sounds too much like I'm up someone's nose.

    But I guess it's better than "suppositoried."
