Desert is an area of land that is dry and sandy. Perhaps you mean dessert?

Wrong! Check the "may contain".

It's taught here for one hour only. To teach them how to sign their names.
They don't even print any more. It's all done on computer.

Â* I mix about 1 heaping tsp of cocoa with about 2/3c sugar and a half
tbsp of butter or margarine . Add just enough water to make a
medium-loose paste , and then nuke it for about a minute and a half -
stop about every 20 seconds or as needed to stir and keep it from
boiling over . I cook it until the graininess of the sugar disappears
and it gets smooth . Might take a bit of trial and error to get the
amount of water right for the consistency you want . Oh and I usually
mix a few drops of (real) vanilla in jest before serving it . This also
scales up nicely to using a sauce pan on the top burner - watch closely
so it doesn't scorch .

all I drink is soy milk, I get mine from TJ's which is gluten free. To
me it tastes pretty much like any other kind of milk. I don't eat
cereal, but I use the soy for my coffee in the am, different recipes
during the day, and a white or black russian at night(modified of
course).

I have never given coffee to my dog either... that seems a bit much..

I was never impressed with soy milk, but almond milk is quite palatable.
Oak milk is great on cereal. My wife likes it in coffee.

I tried the almond milk because of my lactose issues and started using
it because it was pretty good. Then my wife came home from grocery
shopping with some oat milk. Given my history with lactose I was not
about to drink a glass of it but I tried it on cereal and it was
delicious. It was better than milk.

Â* His is about 80% milk , he gets it more because he wants whatever I'm
eating/drinking . I share beer with him too ... but not much , he can't

I am not really that big of a TJ's fan like I said I get my milk from
there and they have a bag of GF tortillas that really like... I may
grab a couple of bananas they do have a great GF pie crust they also
have a pretty good GF pizza crust their eggs are a good price... all
of those thing I listed are cheaper than walmart and/or are
glutenfree. That is the only reason that I go there. I dont drink
disgusting ridiculous wine which they appear to have a good bit of,
pretty much everything else is not GF or costs more than any other
store.

That has nothing to do with what we were talking about

I never said that it was. I just said a lot of their products are
gluten free, that is all. For instance almost all of their dairy and
cheeses and shredded cheeses are gluten free.

dude to me is a sexless description of a person, kinda like guy.... I
have known females to call their other female friends that are in a
group guys

That remains to be seen :P

Have you tried any of the dairy milks that are lactose free? Sometime
last year I bought some, not because of lactose issues but because I was
out of milk and it was the only milk left in the dairy case at the
nearby store. It was (IIRC) 2% milk and tasted exactly like... milk.
The bonus is it doesn't spoil nearly as fast because of the
pasturization process.

I have nothing against almond milk, soy milk or oat milk. I know some
people just plain don't like milk or have issues with lactose. If you
like it, great. But, to be clear, what you're using is not "milk".

I knew a married couple many years ago and their dog loved beer.
We were over there one day and he said, "Check this out." He
opened a beer and poured it into a bowl. Set it down and called
the dog by name followed by BEER.

Ex: "HEY ROVER.....BEER!" The dog immediately ran over and drank
all the beer. weird.

Maple syrup, yes. Pine nuts (pinolis), not really a Canadian thing.

Not really weird, but it sounds like animal cruelty. When my little dog
Sampson was a puppy, my [ex] husband had set a glass of Jack Daniel's &
coke (UGH!) on the coffee table. I was in the kitchen; walked in to
find Sampson had jumped up and was drinking it. That poor pup was
sloshed out of his mind... staggering and bumping into walls, and he was
a crying drunk to boot! It was purely an accident but it was a pitiful
sight. I'm pretty sure he had a hangover when it wore off. It's not a
good idea to give pets alcohol no matter how cute a "trick" you (the
collective you, as in "take a video for Youtube!) think it is.

LOL. At the time, I didn't realize it was a typo for "OAT milk"
I visualized milk made from acorns or something. LOL

What typo? Dave said "oat milk". No mention of acorns anywhere.

Baby seal meat? (Do Canadians still club baby seals to death?)
