Food but not recipes

Another thing about induction - if you’re the kind of cook who likes to remove the pot from the heat and swirl the contents around a bit before returning it to he heat - or vigorously shaking it back and forth in the stove top - you can’t really do that with an induction.

The first may be preventable and may go into remission; the latter is not...

The LDS has been more central to American life than Catholics ever were. Oh no. That is SO not true. I never met a Mormon until I moved to Minneapolis. The vast majority of Mormons live in the western United States, primarily in Utah. Overall, Mormons make up about 2% of the U.S. population. https:...

WaPo inexplicably giving Loomer a lengthy and frankly boring in depth. We learn even she has nothing but her devotion to Trump going for her.
