The best way to get payback is to whip up some cream for your slice of pie and make sure you don’t make enough for the spoiled brat to have another slice. (Yeah, I do talk big, don’t I? I’d have been whipping the cream before Hubs finished plating his pie.)

@Sticks_and_Scones **[I found the post.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/playing-with-milk-or-how-i-make-cottage-cheese/959846)**

Do remember that I was CDO before I started making cheese, it just got worse after that.

I like that one. I think I did it once, but had a flowered headband to hold the sheet in place.

The fuzzbutts get a few teaspoons of chicken juice.

I’ve lost count, is this five people or six?

I have a velvet ballroom gown and all the accessories. I wear it to the ball every 11/10. I should probably start walking around in it now because if I don’t it will look like I’m wearing a costume.

I was much happier with this years version. I got shot, went swimming and came home and made dinner. I had a small owie on my arm the next morning but none of the usual ICK. I hope you wake up feeling fine as well.

Oh, wait. Dachshund right? I forgot. Of course you need to be careful to keep the weight down to keep from hurting their long spine. I shouldn’t have doubted you!

I’ve never heard that before, but it is so right.

But what about the sharks or tentacles bursting out of the drain?!?!

My **free** gym has a fully enclosed pool. No windows on the walls or doors. When I’m alone in there I am _alone_. It’s a whole different world out here, nobody would ever have been allowed to be left alone in gym or pool in AZ just because of worries about people damaging things or getting hurt and suing.

Check with the County Recorders office. They are the ones who have the property records.
