I have waffles memorized:
1.75 cups flour, 1tbsp baking powder, 0.25tsp salt, 2 eggs, 1.75 cups milk (creamy oat milk actually is even better), 0.5 cup canola oil.
We do fast for dinner once a week and this is my sons favorite, and my wife can’t eat dairy.
I helped run a Kickstarter where one of our rewards was Mac and PC software on custom USB sticks.
We had a couple hubs set up and cloned the drives 20 at a time.

Got luck getting an ambulance dispatched to the right place (in my unfortunate experience).
That’s an absurd amount if honking.
Try and record it if you do.
It was 5°F (-15°C) out. She would stand up and turn away when I opened the door to let her in. Then lay back down to watch us from outside after I closed it. The snow was so deep that The wind chill -5–10° probably wasn’t really affecting her at least.
