Reminds me when our family got transferred to Mexico City in 1959. Once we got into Mexico, travelling in the desert, we would come across these shacks in the middle of nowhere where the guards would search the car. They would take whatever they wanted, like toys, but would hold up new small appliances we were bringing back, and not take them, because they didn’t know what they were. They were essentially bribe points.

It's a good idea to rub your eggs in some fresh water before using if you are not making eggs boiled in the shell. Remember to keep fresh water nearby to rinse your mouth and toothbrush. When you see trucks drive by with men in the bed of the truck wearing helmets and carrying big guns, that is a good thing. I am Canadian. When I enter the US or Mexico I am going to spend money which helps their economy. In Mexico 100 pesos equals 5 US dollars so just multiply by 5. 40 pesos is about is about $2 USD. BTW Mexicans go make donuts but they are not the same as in US and Canada, they are more bread like.

@Sanecrist Жыл бұрын
The US has pretty unique requirements for eggs. In order to be sold in stores, they must be washed. Most countries don’t even allow that because it washes off the protective coating, thus exposing the porous texture to bacteria. There are farmers from Europe with KZbin channels that show how they process their eggs. And basically, anything too dirty doesn’t get sold. Any egg mildly dirty gets scratched off with sandpaper. Eggs can last longer if they haven’t been washed, too. I have chickens and have eaten six month old unwashed eggs. If you keep them in the fridge, it’s mostly fine… sometimes you get a bad one and that smell haunts you for days. Which is why cooking shows tell you to always crack your eggs in a separate bowl and not directly over what you’re trying to make. The flock I have this year are particularly dirty girls. I actually washed my eggs while watching this video. Hens lay with the sun. So as the days get longer, they’ll lay more. The eggs I washed will get eaten before they go bad because I don’t have to ration them in springtime. Anyway, hope that explains why your eggs had feathers. 😂

Marissa, I not enough of a neatness person to worry about the state of my home if someone breaks in, but then I don't worry about anyone ever breaking in, either. My thing about my home is I can dirty it up thru-out the day, but it's gotta be clean (especially the kitchen) before I go to bed at night, so every morning I can wake up to a relatively neat/clean home. However, I am a single person living alone and don't make much mess thru the day, so only takes 10-15 minutes to clean the place up before I change into jammies and settle into bed.
