Next year it will be "Crab Stick."


Japan is first on my "to visit in Asia" list.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

If you (or any other FOT for that matter) make it to my neck of the woods I'll make sure to get a day off to take you around to some of my favorite places or anything you'd want to see.

Electric Kettle:  Worthwhile?


Yes.

Yeah, they're great. Really fast. I do have some concerns about heating up food in plastic containers, though. We switched to a stainless steel stovetop kettle to allay anxiety about these kinds of things.

there's only so much anxiety i can have about those kind of things before i have to eat lunch in a tupperware filled with last nite's leftovers.  but for the most part, to avoid any conundrum, i bring a cold lunch.

You gonna die someday soon, Bryan - geologically speaking.  Don't sweat the small stuff.

Basically I agree with you, buffcoat. (Unless you're threatening me.) But this just seemed like one of those things that was easy to do and could potentially lower the amount of weird chemicals I was ingesting.

Not threatening you, Bryan.  Yet.

I know I'm bumping an old topic, but I was wondering if anybody had ever used an automatic tea brewer? I've been looking at them and really want one but they are too expensive to just buy one without personal recommendations.
