    That sucks!  Hopefully the items are replaceable and not time sensitive.

    Two containers of cat treats under 20 bucks total.  Not a big deal.

    Build a shelf above those stock pots....

    Does your wife park in an attached garage?   Parking outside allows her to breathe fresh air before going on a drive...
    Being considerate and finding more room for cooking stuff. Win-win.

    Your chamber sealer will weigh around 80-100 pounds.  It needs a permanent location or be mobile on a cart.  I've moved mine a few times and it almost takes two people unless you aren't worried about a hernia.  As a result, ours sits in a permanent location.  You will use it almost daily or at least a couple times a week unless you don't buy food in bulk and don't save leftovers.

    Glad to hear it wasn't anything valuable, but do you have any idea who that is?  Just some rando?  I just hate the feeling of being violated like that.

    Wondering how this playground equipment got approved:


    Curious as to how you came (pun intended) across this. Is that where you spend your free time, John?
    The internet is kind of a weird and wild place man, you should check it out sometime.  
    Ever since I disabled Facebook tracking, stopped using Google (and started using DucksDucksGo), enabled some privacy protection in my phone, I am getting WEIRD advertisements on the interweb… I swear I am being punished. 🤣😂

    I think my very first suggestion would be to eliminate some of those cans of cranberry sauce. Who really needs three cans post-Thanksgiving and Christmas?

    i eliminated that problem years ago when i planted cranberries in a small bogg on the property. i have zip zero space, foodsaver is in the window, slicer on the kitchen table with the sousvide, kitchenade mixer is under the kitchen table =) the rest is taking space in the coatroom

    Build a shelf above those stock pots....

    Does your wife park in an attached garage?   Parking outside allows her to breathe fresh air before going on a drive...
    I added those wire shelves a few weeks ago to gain some more storage.  They are actually two 3 wire shelves stacked on top of each other.  Needed to make some braces so they could be stacked.  I do like the idea of a solo cup dispenser.

    There is no way my wife would park outside.  She lets me get away with a lot, but disrupting her parking space is not happening.




    Those shelves are fantastic. I had two of those but bigger in our old house. Plus we also had two of these. https://smile.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Bakers-Rack-Wood-Chrome/dp/B073P1V6HR/ref=mp_s_a_1_44?crid=15F208M5LE9VJ&keywords=pantry+metal+rack+with+cutting+board&pscroll=1&qid=1642599969&sprefix=pantry+metal+rack+with+cutting+board%2Caps%2C98&sr=8-44&wIndexMainSlot=69

    We loved them so much we added them to the girls play room for extra storage.

    Cranberry and avocado seems like a bit of an odd combo. My favorite sandwich from our sandwich place is turkey, stuffing and cranberry.

    I would urge you to still file a report and send the video in. Maybe it can be tied to something larger. Just before Christmas I caught a couple of tweekers who where going around porch pirating. Upon a little further investigation it was determined that they were getting addresses of deliveries from their dealer who was working with a driver. They would go behind the delivery driver and pick up all of his deliveries and then the plan was to meet up with the dealer and unload the stolen packages.

    For an elevated post-celebration turkey sandwich, the stuffing needs to be pressed into a hot waffle iron, thereby creating a crunchy, flavourful “bread” for the delicious contents. 😃

    Probably a good idea.

    No idea.  I discovered my other camera system isn't saving anything recorded. I did realize hurricane Ida knocked out half of the cameras.  A good takeaway is realizing I need to do some work on that surveillance system, which is high enough res/low light where I could have possibly gotten a good picture.

    I have a decoy box out there right now, and I work 10 feet from the front door.  I'm going to work in my running shoes today.

    Tell that stripped cat that someone has been stealing the cat treats. After he crushes their skull he will drag them up a tree for the buzzards.

    Couldn't agree more. I use a mobile ss cart for chamber sealer, commercial scale and toaster oven. The sealer and scale are indispensable for us. I raise the sealer on wood blocks to change pump oil in place, no fun getting hernia like nola said. Due to small kitchen the cart sits in dining room, makes good conversation piece  :) 

    Time flies, just realised I bought the vp215 back in 2014 even after watching Little Steven in action with his hot soup demo  =)  Even at $1000 I'm guessing I've recuperated at least half the purchase price in bag saving$, can't put a price on all the intangibles though. 

    At Vevor's price point it's a no brainer imo.

    He will definitely f*ck up any interloper cat that wanders into his realm and steals his treats.  He's a fighting machine (as our vet bills have shown us over and over) ;)

    @ColbyLang Sweet!  I like it.  If I wasn't so cheap/poor I'd strongly consider one, but I'm holding out for an electric and my 2006 Ram is in great shape still.

    Looks kind of like a Range Rover (except probably/hopefully doesn't break down every 500 miles).... =)
