[quote]Also, I’m trying to avoid the noodles. Would mushrooms be inauthentic to add?[/quote] The vegetable pho at Dahn’s Garden comes with bok Choi, carrot, baby corn, mushrooms and broccoli. It is OUTSTANDING! I usually get that and add beef on the side or meatballs. ...
[quote]The way you have to go about this is someone is going to have to become power of attorney. There is no other way. Someone will have to do that. [/quote] That ship has already sailed.

re: What are your hobbies

Posted by LSUGUMBO on 5/18/24 at 12:48 am
Cooking is my main hobby. I enjoy cooking for the family and friends, and smoking meat on the weekends. It’s a fun way to provide, and when you make a dish that everyone loves, it’s very gratifying. The ‘misses’ are fun, too, sometimes- there’s always something that brings up the one that didn t...
My parents very graciously helped us send our kids to Catholic Schools, but we wouldn't have gotten the cash equivalent had we sent them to public schools. They are always willing to help if we're in a bind, but we definitely don't get an 'allowance'...

[quote]True. Its one of the last really affordable places, but most of the ity is uninhabitable.[/quote] It's just like every larger city in the Southeast- you've just got to know where to live. That being said, we're only still here because of our aging parents. I hope that one of the kids moves...
[quote]I'll get roasted here, but shutting off water for tenants abiding by our decades old "indigent" peeps process of government idiocy isn't cool. For the kids anyway. F the proprietor and government for being complicit in the scam.[/quote] What's the answer when it's a common meter, the sluml...
[quote]Is Shreveport really behind Alex and Monroe?[/quote] Shreveport, Monroe, Alex, BR, Laffy, etc are all pretty much on the same playing field, it's just geographical bias as to who's on top/bottom. You don't hear about the good parts/areas, only the bad stuff. I'm about 90% sure that none of...
[quote]It also didn’t help that lefties and righties both seemed to hate Shreveport. They were all miserable. When a news article was posted about something new coming to town, it was all bitching and no excitement. [/quote] It's the strangest thing- maybe it goes on in other cities, too, but ev...
[quote]I can’t tell if this is a good thing for Shreveport or bad. Is it the city not putting up with bullshite?[/quote] Sounds like they're finally done with the bullshite.

We got this [img]https://i.postimg.cc/5NCjdNdr/IMG-7152.jpg[/img] It’s a pretty terrible situation, but I’m not sure what else the city is supposed to do, besides give the paying tenants a little longer than a week to get out. ...

A gift card tree. Gather donations from local restaurants. Chances are, people will bid up to the value of the cards, so if you get $1,000 worth, that’s what you can expect to raise. ...

I’ve never used one, but those disc cookers look pretty cool. Our class did a bar basket that sold for over $700. Bourbon, scotch, vodka, gin, red/white wine, and assorted mixers, glasses, etc. all wrapped up in a nice bucket. ...
