Thinking about restarting my sharing of things I use #InMySmallKitchen including both some how’s and whys and yeah, using an Amazon link like my personal library reference catalog.

Starting on creating a clean slate of followers and commenters. If you are hiding behind a fake identity or if the email you give bounces as “User not found” Do Not be surprised if you “get no answer” if you choose to comment.

If your default style of correspondence is hate based and abusive, it won’t show – so no glory to you. In other words, look elsewhere for you 15 minutes.

Meat Directions – This is an easy recipe to double or more “as written” – I recommend freezing uncooked extra for future meals in unsliced “logs” (just add a few extra minutes to baking or air fry time for fresher flavor.

• Mix all dry ingredients thoroughly
• Mix Dry into meat REALLY MASH – into an almost paste like texture.
• Place in covered bowl and refrigerate at least 3 hours if time allows.*
• Shape into approx 5 x 5 x 1 inch square (easiest when refrigerated but the world does not end if you don’t)
• Cut into 1 in square “Logs” (like a square hot dog)

Optional, chill the logs before Bake/AirFry – if you have time, if not, not to worry it will be fine.
place on rack in shallow pan – chilling does make it easier to shape.

Either Bake at 350F – 30 mins Or AirFry 325 – 20 mins Check for Internal temp of 160F/72C
Allow to rest 5 mins before slicing.

* The world does not end if you do not have time to refrigerate and allow flavors to meld. It is also easier to shape the logs when cold.

**Drogheria & Alimentari Organic Tuscan Herb Seasoning is my preferred version of Italian Seasoning – We use this Tuscan Herb Blend in many ways.
In this recipe, usually calling for Greek Seasoning by adding Lemon Zest or Peel and Mint adding 1/8th tsp (teaspoon) each per tablespoon of the Drogheria & Alimentari Organic Tuscan Herb Seasoning offers a pleasant flavour to the this or any other Mediterranean regional dish. For other ways see my post: Ingredient: Tuscan Herb Seasoning

As a response to the current question that has me rolling my eyes:

Compuserve was first offered to the public in 1979
There were others in between, but the next “big” service was
AOL, under other names between 1983 and 2009,
Mark Zuckerberg was not even born until 1984 and
Facebook only resided in his dorm room in 2004.

Yesterday I was annoyed enough to look up about 30 people who died before the above momentous occasions

Know what they all had in common? Virtually NO PRESENCE on Social Media –

In print, there were nominal birth, graduation, the occasional scholarship award, engagement announcements, mentions in obits of family, their own obituary. It was how most lived.

Oh, P.S. to those who keep sending me links that claim I was married 4 times – I don’t know who they are either, like you, I only know about one marriage/divorce. I would also note that same writing also has several other easily confirmed factual errors but people believe what they want to believe.

Just remember, when someone waits until after the death of any person to make an accusation, they are denying that person their Sixth Amendment rights.

It also means that they are denied a fair trial following the basic legal concept of innocent until proven guilty – to which I would add – and the accusers are placed under oath so if they perjure themselves with false testimony they can be punished.

so as you watch speculative youtubes or read social media posts – ask yourself, why is this person being denied their 6th Amendment right to face their accuser:

Amendment VI

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
