Could be a vent pipe restriction if it's not a clog. Do you have a lot of squirrels around your house?

Big Stretch caulk is the best. It moulds better, is less messy, shrinks less and doesn't separate. I won't use DAP if I can help it.

I can't help you out with the recipe but maybe can lend some help with some techniques that will point you in the right direction.

1.lightly salt and par-cook the mushrooms until they are just barely done, drain and freeze. Mushrooms are full of water, shrink a lot and par-cooking them helps keep the batter tight after it's cooked. Freezing helps a lot if you use sliced large cap portobellos.

2. Dip them in a heavily seasoned buttermilk batter. Their mushrooms had a distinct tang to them that I'm pretty sure was buttermilk. There may have been a hint of mustard too but my memory has kind of faded.

3. Toss in a mixture of AP flour and cornstarch maybe 8-10 turns, sift, shake off the excess flour and fry immediately at around 375 - 400 until the outside is brown and crisp. I don't remember the exact ratios I used but there's tons of recipes online.

I went on a kick years ago trying to perfect a fried mushroom recipe and this technique got me pretty close to the Caterie's. Sorry I don't have the recipe, the flood took a bunch of them out in 2016.

If you really want to kick it up, add some beef tallow to your frying oil.

Gambling is a losing proposition for the vast, vast majority of people.

Delicious Peters from Walker, LA. LINK for all the naysayers.

Scalia had a lot to say on this subject. Not all discrimination is bad was his stance if I recall.

Get a sleep study done. You can have sleep apnea and not snore. Set your alarm one morning to only get 2-3 hours sleep, power through the day and don't go to bed until 11:30 or so the next night. Sometimes the more severe sleep deprivation will shake up your circadian rhythm. Make sure you're off of work and don't do anything that could be dangerous(driving, operating heavy machinery, climbing trees, etc). Try to abstain from electronics all afternoon and right after you wake up as well.

Both are kind of blank canvases that I enjoy equally. Rice seems to pair better with things that I cook but taters definitely have a place at the table, especially red potatoes.

If they ever made one out of stainless or chrome lined steel, I'd buy one. I wouldn't use them frequently enough to keep the rust at bay.
