We did, once. That was super easy to clear, too - not like the heavy, wet stuff we had to shovel last winter. And we do still have snow at the end of our street from where they piled it up when plowing (side note - that pile was awesome for building snow forts when we were kids).
We’ve been getting flurries off and on all week so far, but it’s never enough to cover anything.
But it’s still bone-chilling cold out there, when you factor in the wind. And tonight is going to get down to 4°. Hopefully there isn’t much wind with it.
Decide not to eat leftover chicken soup from the other day in case that’s what made you sick.
Decide to get some fresh chicken rather than digging through the freezer.
Clock out and head to the meat department and discover that there is no fresh chicken. Not prepackaged, not at the service counter. In fact, the service counter is closed, because there’s hardly any meat at all.
Think about egg drop soup but then remember you already heard there are no eggs.
Discover one of the few remaining meat items is a pork shoulder on markdown - $12 for a 9 pound shoulder.
And that, friends, is why I’m having tofu in my soup tonight and cooking pork shoulder tomorrow.
My secret, when I’m feeling bleh, is to stop at the Chinese restaurant and get a big takeout of hot and sour soup (or egg drop, if you’re not into spicy).
So not to derail the other thread thats interesting to know there could be possibly hidden things about the vote kick that were not aware of. Its always interesting finding out about tidbits like this.
I couldn’t say for certain, but the Devs try to avoid people being able to game various systems, so specific details on how some things work are usually kept to themselves. I would be more surprised if there weren’t any hidden conditions.
I figured it would have been the exact same as hacks - there’s got to be more to it, but making that info available would help people try to skirt the rules/rules lawyering.
I kind of miss ammo, but not really. And if I remember correctly, I was “not happy” about the change from mana to focus. But looking back, it does make sense. Firing a (cross)bow or gun really isn’t magic. Though I could see some of the tricks hunters use as being magic.
