This stuff? Comes in 1 lb or 2 lbs logs? Maybe a different brand or packaging?
Idk what you call it but I’ve seen it at Acme now.

This is an American problem, but I discovered Amish butter a while back and haven’t looked back.
It has a slightly higher fat content closer to European butter (85% vs 80% for the regular store stuff), so everything you make tastes better. Eggs, cookies, steak, potatoes- it improves them all. I can get it fairly easy from a local co-op and it’s the same price as regular butter, but that depends on where you are in the country.
Old infographic, but still relevant…
Also, as others pointed out, bigger phones almost always have better specs overall. I used to have top notch Samsung phones specifically for the camera and battery life, bc I used my phone for site surveys.
The only time I rinse my pasta is if I need it to be cold for the final dish, like macaroni salad.
But I’m also certain that macaroni salad is an abomination to real Italians, so it’s kind of a moot point.
Exactly that - it depends on where you live and what condition your water supply pipes are in.
Homes built or renovated in the last 30 years or so will likely have copper, PVC or PEX piping, but older homes might have alternative materials that are more porous or contain contaminants. Lead was a common material used for water supply piping in the 20th century, which can combine with chemicals in the water supply to make lead salts, which can be dissolved in warm enough water. That’s not the only material that can cause problems, I’m just giving an example.
In general, warmer water can hold more solvents than colder water, so by using hot water from the tap you are giving the water more of a chance to dissolve more contaminates from your piping, which ends up in your pasta water.
Again, it really depends on what your municipal water system is like and it’s age - in some places with newer piping this is a non issue. And also keep in mind that the hot water is produced inside your house, so as long as the pipes are a non toxic material from the water heater to the faucet, the issue is pretty much nil.
FWIW, I live in a first world country where the infrastructure is old and outdated. I know for a fact my home has copper pipes, but I still don’t trust my city’s water supply, so I always start with cold water.
The scope and visibility of the case is important, as well. Complex cases require lots of lawyers with different specialties to look at it from different angles.
Similar in engineering, you want more engineers working on a really big and complex project than just one person. I worked with a firm back in the day that designed a stadium - they had a whole floor of their HQ devoted to engineers who only worked on that project.
Well I live in Philadelphia, and just in the decade I’ve been here, I’ve seen some shit.
The unsolved Hitchbot murder, and then a local radio station’s attempt to repair our good name before the Pope arrived.
The dumpster pools in Kensington.
When the Eagles won the Super Bowl and chaos ensued. I can’t find any source on this in particular, but my gf and I agree we heard on the police scanners that a giraffe had been freed from the zoo and was running down Girard.
Drumline Elmo, who has become as big a celebrity in the city as Gritty.
Gritty, who is a national hero in our eyes.
All of which doesn’t even factor in the everyday life crazy. This place is wild, and I’m all for it.
I felt myself getting a brain tumor while reading that, I’ll have to come back to it later
We’ll yeah, but that’s a separate thing
Are they that rare? And do they really know to keep things like this under wraps? It seems like our social filters have all gone out the window the last eight years.
She can’t spell fiancé correctly despite several attempts and having autocorrect. I think it’s entirely possible that she’s just dumb, selfish and insecure.
