Good Morning, To Linda and others, you are not weird. I prefer to use braille every chance I can. I can access things like phone numbers and cooking directions easier and quicker from a notebook or file box than thatrying to fromind the information on the computer or the digital recorder. Paul

That's a call to Maintenance and I bet Maintenance will call a Plumber in to handle this one. The Plumber likely will remove the disposal then flip it so it empties shards into a box then reinstall the disposal if it hasn't been used since the shards fell into the disposal. If the disposal got us

No, just have the plumber do it and stay safe. Besides, you are likely to have to call them anyway. But if you try it yourself, you might have both the plumber and medical bills. That really sounds awful. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of diane.fann7--- via Cook

Not inauthentic, I've had vegetable curry before and it even had carrots in it along with coconut. So far as I'm concerned both coconut and carrots are good additions for rice. On Thu, 20 Aug 2020, Linda S. via Cookinginthedark wrote: > Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2020 18:11:49 > From: Linda S. via Cookin
