To me, dark roasts are all about the bloom. I also think 5 pours might be too many, but YMMV. I wouldn't grind any smaller lest you enjoy lots of fines.

I bloom 20g of dark roast with 35-40ml of boiling water for 90 seconds and then I do 3 100ml pours every 30 seconds. This is my everyday V60 coffee.

I mean, I'd eat it if you sat it down in front of me. But:

You definitely shot yourself in the foot with all the dairy, as far as I'm concerned. That's a pretty dense, hearty topping for an otherwise light, vibrant shrimp dish.

I'd either do cream or cheese, but not both. I think about the slaw being the main attraction whenever I do shrimp tacos, and I like a nice fresh zap to mine.

My cabbage slaw is basically:

  • 1 cup purple cabbage, shredded
  • Half a red bell pepper, thin strips
  • Half a carrot, thin strips
  • 3-4 green onions, sliced thinly
  • 1/2 cup of cilantro(parsley if you have the soap gene), finely chopped

Toss that together with the juice of a lime(2 tbsp) and a tablespoon of good, fruity olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste and that's it. Let those veggies shine, bud!

Gumbo comes from the West African word 'gombo' meaning okra. Literally translated kingombo means 'okra soup'. But there are more variations than you can throw a stick at.

Generally, I find a gumbo made with roux and okra(and/or sassafras) to be too thick. I only do one or the other, either okra or a flour based roux. I'll serve with filé powder on the table as desired.

If you have ice cube trays, I'd freeze it into coffee cubes and keep them in a freezer bag. It'll taste way better for longer and there's much less risk of mold or funky smells developing.

I have some from Easter that I'm still using and they're still quite strong. I toss a few in a glass when I wake up with some milk and let it thaw for a bit, I'm a fan.

I've seen this with a tabasco bottle before, this feels right

Mounjaro and Ozempic both have savings cards you can sign up for on their respective websites, as long as you aren't on government insurance.

I had the same issue last year, my A1C was 6.9 and insurance denied coverage. I got the savings card from Lilly, had my doctor call in the script and BAM! 25USD for 12 weeks of Mounjaro.

I didn't even need a prior authorization anymore. Apparently results may vary, but I got lucky. Try them both if needed. Stay vigilant!

I'd bet a bunch of vocal groups from the early days of vinyl would fall into this group. They're probably mostly in Las Vegas and Branson these days.

As a personal memory, I played a few gigs with The Diamonds(most known for their hit 1957 record "Little Darlin'") back in the early 2000s. They were having a bit of a resurgence after a PBS series aired. At one point the original bass singer was back, but he wasn't long for this earth and somebody else was in his place by the second tour I did.
