Sam is drumming his fingers, too. And so are the folders, and maybe Tracy (no, I doubt we’re branching out into spec fic).Maybe it’s just a vibrating (aka massage) table ;)
gibbous comes from Latin hunchbacked or bulge. Personally, a waning (or waxing) gibbous looks to me like it’s squished a bit, not bulging or humped. Waning gibbous is when it was full, and part is shadowed or missing – betwen full and half moon. Waxing gibbous it is almost full, except for a part is missing – between half and full.
Between new and half or between half and new is crescent, waxing or waning, respectively.
Bantams lay small eggs. New layer’s eggs are smaller than the same hen in a year or so. So they are labeled peewee or small to begin with. But no self-respecting Leghorn or Rhode Island Red would even dream of small eggs!
[RBION said a Leghorn egg back in 1956 was 454 grams – that’s 16 oz aka one pound!!! But certainly not normal. In the US & Canada, Jumbo eggs are at least 70 grams (2.5 oz)]
So what did they eat in England, Ireland, Scotland, before potatoes arrived? Sir Raleigh introduced them to Ireland in 1585, but it was awhile before they became common. And then 250 years later the potato blight killed them off. Yet people today think bubble & squeak (or further north, rumbledethumps) are ancient foods.
I wonder what they had before they added the potatoes?
And in the US, corned beef hash is commonly available in cans, but my mom also included diced cabbage – maybe from some recipe from her mom’s mom’s … mom.
That last sentence was so sad – I remember when it was McDonalds (is that why you haven’t been there in so long?) or Hardee’s, or …
So you won’t go to a resaurant because of politics, even though the workers there work there because they need to pay the bills, and have to find somewhere close enough to home so as to be able to walk, or to get a ride from another family member/friend who has to go further – etc.
How many of them work there because of the former owners politics or religion? No, they work there to survive.
