Thanksgiving Notes
1. Got Kosher Turley from Trader
2. Used Ina Garten recipe for dry rub (lemon zest, salt, thyme)
3. Turley took 2 hours to cook at convection bake, lowest rack (then switched one up) at 350 F instead of 2:25 at 325
4. Do not tie wings to body, the in-between section stayed raw, although the rest of the meat was higher temp then states in recipe
5. Flan, get candy thermometer
6. Flan took 1:50 to set instead of 1:15
7. When pouring in custard, pour over a big spoon to absorb the weight otherwise the custard goes under the caramel
8. Green beans are cooked after 5 minutes, bring water to boil, add beans, bring to boil and cook for 5 min. Salt water.
9. Sangria without additional alcohol needs the pine apple

Bread making tips
1. Warmer water is better for mixing dough later on. You can do colder or warmer but warmer is better.
2. Strain the flour and mix two flours before adding in the mix
3. When combining to dough squeeze it with your hands and fingers to mix it otherwise you end up with hard dough pieces in the bread that did not mix well
4. After step #3 then do the stretch fold type mixing
5. You can slap the dough on a hard surface a few times to get rid of air bubbles.
6. Tightening the loaf before shaping is very important. If its not tight, it will not rise well. The loaf has to be tight. Pull a bit and fold over. Keep going until you start feeling resistance, then shape it.
7. When you remove loaf from oven, shake off the excess rice flour into pot before putting loaf on rack

What not to buy in HM
1. Cotton Bedding - very cheap and smells like chemicals
2. Clothes you did not see in person
3. LazyOne is not good quality for adults. Seem like they use the same amount of material as they did for kids and material is very thin.
4. Socks, they are awful. Do not wash and smell disgusting. buy socks at Gap or somewhere else

Parents
Еще раз домой зайдешь – больше не выйдешь.
Тебе одному ничего не задали?
Не смейся, а то плакать будешь!
Закрой рот и ешь
Маму,слушать нужно
Сколько раз тебя учить
Я тебе говорила,а ты по своему
Смотри в оба
