Would you use a solid rubber bowl for cooking/mixing?
I found (what looks to be) pretty cool solid rubber bowls online but they are on a jewelry-making website. The reviews are good but the bowls are being used for making molds, etc.
Any thoughts on whether I should use solid rubber bowls for cooking, mixing, etc.?

Does anyone have a Thermomix (and is the price justified)?
$2,400 for this appliance seems steep and I'm really curious if users think it's worth it. I've read the reviews (and watched the YouTube reviews + tutorials). Frankly, it looks complicated (to use and clean).
It's supposed to: cook, boil, simmer and stew; chop and mince meat, nuts, herbs and vegetables; blend; make yoghurt; mill rice, nuts and grains into flour; grind coffee, sugar and nuts; knead dough; whisk; grate; puree and crush. It can allegedly replace every kitchen gadget you own.
Really...?
3 AnswersCooking & Recipes2 weeks agoSleep/Fatigue after 1st Covid Vaccine (Moderna)?
I've read online that some have experienced low-grade fever, fatigue, and slept the next day away after the 2nd vaccine but not as many after the 1st dose.
I had the 1st dose yesterday and I slept in very late - after being awake for about an hour fell back to sleep until 1:30 pm! This really isn't my imagination. Other than the huge lump in my upper arm, the excess fatigue, and sleepiness are my side effects.
Anyone else experienced this?

I ordered an item from eBay (seller is based in Hungary).
I've ordered items from China, Japan, Thailand, UK, Singapore, Russia, the Netherlands, etc. and I believe everything was delivered via USPS but they were all fairly small items. This is a bulky-ish piece of luggage.

4 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 year agoClaiming to be from Amazon - Person showed-up at the door asking when we are there?
A woman showed up at the door claiming to be from Amazon. She didn't have a package but alleged that maybe there was a problem with a driver who was unable to make a delivery at some time in the past but couldn't access the office (?!)
She offered no ID or biz card (like a dummy, I didn't ask, either).
She asked when specifically we were there. She said Amazon drivers start delivering at 5 am. I wasn't suspicious (yet) so I told her we were there from 9 to 9. She asked if we are here on the weekends and again are we there at 5 am.
Two calls to Amazon customer support.
Amazon logistics dept. told me that some local delivery stations will send address verification reps out but I the can't verify that the person was actually from Amazon.
What do you make of this?
