We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
Just wanted to offer a suggestion for Mrs. PN's baking and your sugar preps. Did you know brown sugar is quickly made from granulated sugar and molasses?
Molasses keeps indefinitely, boosts iron and makes brown sugar. When you need brown sugar, just add molasses to sugar a little at a time to desired darkness.
Ratio to start...
Approximately 1 tablespoon molasses to 1 cup sugar
(Use white or cane sugar)
Add more molasses for recipes that call for dark brown sugar.
That's it.
Bonus... in the depression era folks would add a spoonful of molasses to a glass of milk. The iron helps when meat is scarce.
***True molasses is better for baking, not blackstrap. Blackstrap is more concentrated and can interfere with consistency and flavor of recipes. Reserve blackstrap for livestock feed, fertilizer, iron supplementation and non baking recipes (unless specifically called for). I believe 1 Tbsp true molasses has about 1 mg iron while blackstrap has approx 5 times this amount.
British man attacked for entering a ‘no-go zone’ in London.
A horde of Islamists surrounded him and questioned why he was in ‘their’ neighborhood.
They threatened him and began chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they kicked him out.
Minister of State for Courts and MP for Finchley and Golders Green, Sarah Sackman, says religious courts like 'Shariah' are a fundamental part of 'British Values'.
A 65-year-old couple retiring in 2025 with average earnings will receive an estimated $1.34 million in lifetime benefits, while contributing only $720,000 in today’s dollars.
That shortfall—more than $600,000 per couple—is being made up by younger workers.
“Most of the growth in spending has gone to retirement and healthcare, while programs that promote upward mobility... have been left behind”
