They are both just salt. But once I actually used pretzel salt, I realized there was a big difference.
My wife and I went to a ren faire in Oklahoma a few months back and there was a lady selling hand bottled spices. She had a large selection of different types of salt and let us sample a few. We tried a smoked black salt and I immediately bought one off her, and have used it when grilling many times. The type of salt you use makes a huge difference.

I really like Dominoes, but we don't order out anymore because it's so expensive. I keep the frozen pizzas on hand because of this.
My small town of ~4000 people just got our first Dominoes about a month ago. I downloaded the app and I see lots of great deals, but if you plan on buying 3 or more pizzas, it's like you're out of luck. They have a deal for a $10 large pizza which is great if you just want one, but then every other large pizza after is close to $20 if not more. They do have some large bundle deals but still, it's not very cheap especially when you have a whole family to feed.

I like buying premade crusts and making my own pizza. We went to an Aldi in a nearby city and I bought a couple frozen pizza dough balls for $1.99 each. Open a jar of marinara, throw some cheap cheese and toppings on there, and it's very affordable. They also have shelf-stable pizza crusts but they remind me of Lunchables, not that pleasant.




Studying for my health insurance producer exam and I feel my brain melting and leaking through my nose. 2/10 not recommended.

i don't know how healed the bones are. Last doctor really didn't tell me anything. He prodded my foot and asked if anything hurt, it didn't. He then asked me to try to walk but I said I hadn't for 7 weeks and he dropped it.

I think the exercises I will be doing first is just to strengthen the muscles before i try to use it again. I haven't had any support besides stay off foot for 7 weeks.

Foot been better today, mainly as I have remembered not to put it down. I am not going to do anything until I see the doctor on Sunday. Have other things I need to do, like swap a set of drawers this weekend. Contents of my old drawers are scattered around the room in bags, need to wait for others to move the furniture for me. Tomorrow I remove the drawers and maybe they can drag it out so I can clean behind it.

Not being able to help sucks.
I would keep commenting on this, but I seem to have misplaced my medical degree, not that being clueless has ever stopped me before.

It's been quite awhile since we ordered from Dominoes, but I think I recall it being like $70 the last time. Would love to keep eating there, but we can't afford that and we could go out and get Chipolte or something for much less than that. But we end-up rarely eating out, so pizza night is my night to not have to really cook.

One of my 3d printers broke today. Well, it's been a few days, but I finally figured out what the problem was today. Been having issues printing a new model for the tournament in February and in finally doing a test model today, I noticed something very off after the print was done. Did a little test by taking the vat and plate off and telling the thing to print and just as suspected, the screen is busted.

I just printed a whole bunch of Battletech only a month or two ago and then hadn't used it since, so I'm not sure what happened. It's an old printer at this point and while I could replace it, that would be a few hundred bucks. There is a screen upgrade kit for $50 I may buy when I'm ready to tackle another project; until then, I've got most everything I need and don't really need to print any models, so I'll just wait to buy that kit.

Kids had to go back. :(

My daughter is the only ranger in the park on the weekends, so they had to head back.

It's kind of funny because I still picture my kids as kids. She was filmed/interviewed by someone making a bird documentary, and she talked about different things related to bird migration, and I was like, "You know things about bird migration?" :ROFLMAO:

At least you have an excuse.
I got told not to help with my drawers but well, I removed the individual drawers from it last night, and once they were taken out I managed to upend the drawers with 1 leg, and then moved them out of way so we could vacuum the floor for the first time in a long time. It takes up less space on its end.

One person can probably carry that out as its not that heavy now its empty (one drawer is busted and won't come out easily (with a hammer)) nut the new one looks more chunky.

New one doesn't seem to have as much space, probably need to get rid of some stuff but I have yet to try to fit all my PC stuff in so I might be okay.

Once I have working feet I will move stuff around - might put all my music stuff on top of it. Might swap its position with the PC as it blocks all the cool air coming through the door.

Stunned, mum finally arranged to have someone come around and look at the windows. Nice to have a window I can open without being invaded by insects as well.

What you need on that wall opposite you is a Govee light curtain:

Has 250 presets and you can even upload your own pics/gifs. Since my wife has her own room, I've decided I'm going to keep adding Govee lights until my room looks like the electronics district of Tokyo. I also like this table lamp which can be set to give you live updates on various things, although everything it mentions for that is USA specific, like live NFL scores.

i already have moving lights on that wall, in my PC. Its just out of the picture to the left. I feel its pointless having anything behind the door and the amount of time I spend staring at the monitor as opposed to looking at the wall is really close to 100%.

Decades ago I used to have posters on every surface - including ceiling. Over time its gone down to zero. Screen replaced the walls. So I need to win lottery to get these

that sounds like a deal... finds someone else's credit card to pay for it.

I used to know someone who bought new cars on their Credit card. I expect it was paid off real fast

Foot less sensitive now than it was last Monday, I went out today and it didn't mind the vibrations caused by the car. It was the first thing I noticed on Monday and I didn't feel it at all today.

I now have a doctors certificate that covers me until April. I also have a referral for Physio so I can start to do the right exercises and get back to walking again instead of hopping. Mum thinks its too long but I think it gives me time to make sure it heals right. I guess she does need to do all the things I can't right now.

Now I have that sorted out I can think about a game to play again. We also just had a heatwave, 3 days where max was 37c and lowest temp last night was 23c... glad a cool change is here, I caught up on sleep.

I am still somewhat ruled by my foot, if it is being annoying I can't sleep. So doctor also given me a script for some pain killers to use at night to help me sleep. As its Sunday I can't get that filled until tomorrow.
 
Hate to buy that screen and then realise its cost is in USD... that would be about 74k here.

though that is still cheaper than the local price for it... its about 114k here.

also, 110 inches may not fit in my room... I don't even have to measure it...

and if I were to do it, I want the small tile version so it can cover entire wall. all of the walls... not just one. Not sure how they deal with corners.

This reminds me of red dwarf where every surface could be a two way communication display, including in showers...
