You don't need heavy cream. You can use a can of fruit and sugar if you want. Add milk or don't. All this thing does is shave ice really so you just need something frozen. A normal ice cream machine is like twice as much but i'd honestly prefer a real one.

I went through the same thing but with waffles recently. I like to make a couple in the morning but got tired of paying like $10 a pack of 8 Kodiak power waffles that tasted bland. At Costco we found this for about the same price so now I make 3 waffles in about the same amount of time it took me to warm three frozen ones but it is way cheaper and they taste 1,000% better.

You can make neat things in a waffle iron using mashed potatoes.

Nostalgia hits from walking into a seven eleven at 2 am blitzed out of your mind and loading up a dog from the turner with chili and cheese, now from the comfort of your own home!

Christmas getting expensive.

Went to a friend's house while back home for Christmas. So of course, wife saw their Litter Robot and now we had to have one, so Merry Christmas cats.

Update after a week. All 3 cats took to using it immediately and I haven’t scooped a damn thing. Emptied the waste basket once dumping it straight in the trash and went back to business. So far I’m impressed. Although, for some reason this morning it dawned on me to check if Best Buy sells these. Come to find out we could have saved like $150 through BB. Didn’t even think to check at the time.

Hey now, air hockey is a staple of life. It's played daily here.

Lanx Lanx can you recommend a Japanese style omelette pan?
i've used 2

this one
JapanBargain 1811, Japanese Tamago Egg Pan Iron Omelet Pan Tamagoyaki Omelette Pan Rectangle Frying Pan, Induction Cookware Pan, Made in Japan

i was easy to flip and everything (well slide around if you've made a tamago, you know what i mean) but its teflon and i wanted to get away from that.

i returned that one and went to find a cast iron, i found one, also says made in japan too
YYMIYU Tamagoyaki Japanese Omelette Pan Cast Iron Wooden Handle 9×7 inch

you also get a perfectly sized spatula so thats cool

my tamago tastes a bit different, mainly cuz i use korean dashi as opposed to using japanese dashi i guess, thats cuz i rarely make japanese dashi but i always have korean dashi on hand.

i'd try the teflon one first, even tho it's teflon, unless you you hit it w/ 400f and clean it really bad, it's not gonna be harmful and it really is easier and less of a chore than the cast iron, also it's like made out of like tin foil, it was so light, which was nice cuz if you ever made the tamago eggs, you constantly have to lift up and off and pour new egg every so often

just remember to use wooden chopsticks to cook

Wife is all in on the cast iron. It's what she mostly uses at home.

Always wanted one of the SecretLab desks (or just a sit/stand desk in general). Finally said fuck it and got one. Have so much fucking room, now, can put my desk treadmill to use, etc. God, this thing is fucking heavy. Big fan so far, though.

Best thing you can get if you have cats. Ive had one for 3-4 years now and never had an issue with mine.

Which one did you get? I have a corner desk but looking to replace it and need something wide enough for my work and personal monitors, this looks like it might work.
