Restaurant owners know that tea, soft drinks, and coffee cost mere
pennies per glass/cup; why be stingy on such a low cost item?

I can see an American order and pay for an espresso in a tiny Italian
espresso cup and come back with a bucket for a free refill

Doubtful, very doubtful. After drinking a tiny cup of espresso they'd feel
lucky if they could get their eyes to close in 12 hours.

It is, but I always just order iced water. But do admit to getting iced
tea when I go to a fast food fish restaurant on senior discount day. It
comes with the meal and they do make great sweet tea.

You asshole! I don't have room in my stupid little freezer to put a can of
oil. If I tried, it would surely fall out.

Insulated travel cups. I doubt she could split the stainless steel models.

Oh all right. I actually stopped that years ago. I use bottles

*That* is a very good idea, Janet. Even if you don't have
a cat, a 10lb bag of cheap (clay) cat litter is only about
a dollar or so.

I definitely agree there. I switched to half years ago once the
clean laundry didn't seem rinsed very well. I use half
recommended now, unscented detergent. All good.

Occasionally, I'll add some bleach but only a tiny bit. Way less
than what they recommend. I haven't used any in the last few
months.

lol! You klutz! You can NEVER put anything in your freezer yet
it stays packed. Just what DO you keep in your freezer? You even
bought a small extra freezer. I remember you used to pack it full
of popsicles.

I have a side by side in the house. It has some frozen meals, I think a
small container of sherbet, some cooked roast beef, a package of chicken,
frozen veggies and potatoes, meatballs and bean burritos. Also two whole and
some partially used bags of bread. I bought too much bread prior to the snow
storm. We had been going through it like crazy but I suddenly went off bread
and stopped eating it. Plus the high protein stuff I bought because I
thought I really liked it, turned out to be something I really disliked. It
tasted good for a tuna melt but leaves something to be desired as toast.

I can't access the garage freezer at the moment. The gardener has it all
blocked off with his stuff. He moved it to the garage to get ready to take
it to his storage room when the snow hit. We haven't been able to get over
there yet do to various unrelated issues. I know I have a few of those
Walmart turkey dinners in there. More bean burritos. I think (but am not
sure) two pounds of ground beef and maybe some potatoes.

Rear back and realize that I asked how to keep the polenta from sticking. I
now believe that my issue was damp slices. Thread drift, I know. Next time
I'll try the air fryer.

My polenta was room temp. I didn't make it. It came from (cue Sheldon) a
tube. I think the problem was the oil wasn't hot enough and the polenta was
too damp. I mainly got the Circulon pans because somebody kept giving me
gift cards to Bed Bath and Beyond, a store that I dislike for the most part,
mainly because I think their prices are too high and their towels are low
quality. I got the pans there.

Dusting that polenta with some flour would help with the appearance and make it nice and crispy - I guess.

JanetUK mentioned bottled soda. I didn't. We know you buy canned

Try using Martha White or White Lily, "soft Winter wheat" flour or
cake (pastry) flour. Definetly, gives you less "cakey" and "nice thin
ones" flapjacks.

Took me 30 yrs to figure this one out!

been eating those.
