Ocelot II (94,783 posts)38. I got the mattress out of the plastic wrap and put it on the bed frame to expand. It did expand pretty fast, so I flopped down on it and it is so comfortable! I can hardly wait to go to bed tonight, but have to go to Target in a bit and buy a new mattress pad and maybe a couple of pillows (the old ones are almost as flat as the old mattress).
save yourself the trouble of going out in the covid filled world and shop from home...https://www.mypillow.com/
So, let me get this straight. It ordered a mattress, knew it had flat pillows and no mattress topper, and didn't order those as well?! Or have them ready to go?Thought definitely isn't their strong point.KC
Had to wait for the loan approval
One of my guilty pleasures is reading DU threads where they get completely perplexed over some minor home or auto maintenance issue. This thread just cracked me up.A pulley, a hook and a rope? I would love to see a video of this operation. This is paver block/chicken wire level engineering. And, of course, it goes without saying that this DUmmie hasn't a single friend or relative that would come help her. Amazing how completely alienating yourself from every person around you can somehow have adverse effects.https://www.democraticunderground.com/10181530058
Demo_Chris (4,949 posts)http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1018&pid=551299Wife and Daughter are furious. I tried to cook a grilled cheese sandwich... Here's what happened. I saw on a youtube video that you make a grilled cheese by putting cheese between bread and cooking it in a pan. I decided I could do that pretty easy and surprise everyone by showing off my cooking prowess. So I got out a stainless steel pan and put my bread and cheese in there. So far so good.But the cheese wasn't melting, while the bread started burning around the edges. So I turned it over and smooshed it down but the bread kept burning. I figured maybe I just need oil so I dump some canola in there. But then the ****ing plastic spatula starts to melt on me. By now the kitchen is full of smoke and the last half inch of the spatula is melted off. WHO IN THE HELL MAKES SPATULAS OUT OF MELTABLE STUFF?! That's freaking silly! Anyway....I decided that sandwich was pretty much garbage, with the blackened bread and the plastic on it and all. Plus the pan was still smoking and it smelled pretty toxic, so I set that out back and got a Teflon pan. This time I though ahead and instead of a plastic spatula I grabbed a metal one. I put plenty of the canola oil in the pan and tossed in my bread. But that wasn't working well either because the bread just got all soggy in the oil and despite being Teflon it STILL stuck to the stupid pan.I was just scraping it out when my daughter came in all freaking out wanting to know what in the hell I was doing. Then my wife showed up. I explained to them about the defective plastic spatula but for whatever reason they seem to somehow think all this was my fault. Then my wife spots the stainless pan out back, and it does look kinda bad with the plastic melted in there, but even so it hardly justifies her reaction.Anyway, my daughter made me two sandwiches and they were good.

I saw in a YouTube video that you make coffee by grinding the beans and pouring hot water over them.
That grilled cheese story reminds of Dr. Nick from The Simpsons: "'Inflammable' means 'flammable'? What a country!"
