Made these today, trying to use up my whole wheat flour, as not a fan using in my bread, even at 20%. Strangely, when O&A, I make a point to use 'Royal' whole wheat bread when getting my bologna & chips sandwich fix on Anyway, they're easy to tasty & tasty. No photos of mine, as not as uniform as hers, using a wobbly pizza cutter, and I forgot to 'fork' them, which didn't make much difference. Guessing you could use AP flour, if not having whole wheat. Other recipes call for adding cheese & such, and can really personalize them, also a nice plus. Use to eat a lot of Ritz crackers, but they are so unhealthy, if eating more than 2

Most of our shopping is done at Makro, as stated, Lotus's is terrible, and almost always more expensive. I think 7-11 cheaper than Lotus's. Lotus doesn't carry half the stuff we buy, and meat, veggie & fruit selections are dismal. No Tops or Gourmet Market here, though we pop into GM when at Hua Hin. Even when we lived in Udon Thani, lots of options, but still shopped mostly at Makro. When we can find, buy veggies from fresh market, and the broccoli & asparagus is much cheaper, but hard to find. Getting a supply of asparagus in the greenhouse, so that's a plus of late.

That's what they tell you, so you buy the, more profitable, unhealthy 'vegetable' seed oil. Then they can sell you some meds to correct the effects of seed oil on your body. I lost all respect for FDA, CDC, WHO, or any govt health advisory organization. All corrupted by food manufacturing industry and big pharma. IMHO

Weather permitting, I'd use my bicycle or MC back in USA, unless shopping. Not much difference here/TH, except my back isn't up for long MB rides any more. I'll even do lite shopping with the MB here, unlike USA. Scooter have more space to carry, w/basket & foot platform. Even have a big A$$ box that came with the scooter, and keep thinking about putting it back on the scooter, since wife is rarely riding with us (dog & myself)

Avoid seed oils, all. Along with high temp frying. Pan frying better than deep frying. Air fryer even better, though still need oil Coconut / palm Tallow Ghee Olive Avocado

Actually, AOT is public company, which is kind of strange, as it's a 'spin off' of gov't agency, along with being the major stock holder of 70%. AOT controls the 6 international airports ... ... Suvarnabhumi Airport ... Bangkok International Airport ... Phuket International Airport ... Chiang Mai International Airport ... Hat Yai International Airport ,,, Chiang Rai Samui Airport is privately owned and operated by Bangkok Airways. Most flights from the island are operated by Bangkok Airways.

Shocking surge: Thai electricity tariffs set to spark debate
KhunLA replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Assuming that's kWh/units on your bill, which is a 5k-7.5k baht bill. Our system is 8kWh, means the hybrid inverter will accept about 8kWh from the panel, and put out about 8kWh to the house/load. Any more, and it will shut down. Our system is just enough, on crappy, overcast, rainy days, to supply enough for the house, and recharge the ESS/batteries, we use for overnight/non production hours (14 hrs). That's about 6-8kWh overnight. When not home, house uses about 4kWh, just keeping the 2 frigs running, and maybe 1 light. On a good, very sunny day, and using everything w/EV plugged in, we can produce & use 50kWh, total, for house, top up batteries, and EV. That's about our max production/use, and don't think we could squeeze too much more out of it. On a crappy day, lucky to get 10kWh, total. I don't 5kWh system would meet your full requirements, or even 8kWh. 10kWh (two 5kWh for redundancy) would work for you. If you're home during the daytime, 5kWh would certainly supplement a good part of your bill. ESS add a good bit of the cost of any system. If not home during the day, then benefits of solar wouldn't really be realized, unless using a lot overnight, which would require a lot of ESS/battery storage. Panel sizes are about 2m² (2 X 1), and we have 18 X .540w = 9.7kWh produce. About 40m² of roof need. Split even, 9 panels facing S & W. Any more, and would be waste, as inverter will only accept so much. We don't have East facing, so lose a bit in the early sunrise. -
That's definitely the wrong place to gain info and form an opinion ... Just a few folks with more gun knowledge/experience than yourself.

A .223 is same as what comes out of a M16. Larger shell of course. I wouldn't want to hit with a little ol' 22LR, as it picks up some speed on the way. As proven, the results can be deadly. Ruger Mini 14, promo as a 'range rifle' for vermin, when first released. Also fires the same cartridge as the M16. Don't let that '.22' designation fool you.

If you can't aim or shoot well, then use the right tools for the right job. They make some amazing scopes. Thankfully he was a total idiot. R I P to the victim, hopefully it stays at 1.

45 yrs in USA, and I've never seen anyone running around with gun, except myself. Sure plenty carry concealed, hopefully with a permit, if required. Police will arrest anyone they see carrying a gun, illegally or without a permit, for that state. I'm living proof Permit for PA, not FL ... oops -

Don't know an installer in the NE, we used one based in Hua Hin. 2nd story shouldn't be a problem. We don't clean our panels, and think the wife rinsed them down once. Rainy season keeps them clean, and they don't get that dirty to interfere with production non rainy season. Always seems to be a spot of rain during 'dry/cool' season. So we don't bother. EV makers here/TH, most provide wall charging cables, along with installation, unless EV on sale, and one way the cut their cost. Daughter got a sale price for her BYD, w/wall charger, but had to pay for installation @ 15k baht, I think. Far from $8k USD. Our MG came with wall charger & installation. Which we rarely use, since that is on the grid. We use the granny/emergency charging cable that also comes with the EV. Slower, but the solar will handle it with no problem. 2.3kWh vs 7.4kWh draw from the wall charging cable. Our system is only 8kWh, so not connected to it. -

He could probably care less about winning anything. Guess he and cronies have more than a few healthy bank accounts. 10s of millions of $$$ of aid go missing as he keeps on asking for more. -
Way overdue for a price increase. Actually cost less to operate & maintain being electric.
