From googling it - Elián González grew up in Cuba, earned an engineering degree, and worked as an industrial engineer. In 2023, he was elected to the National Assembly of People's Power, representing Cárdenas, Cuba.

Carnival has to be in a predicament at this point.

They are known as the ghetto, plank road, Walmart of the seas, and they want to be rid of that stigma.

But they chased off all the respectable customers and need the ghetto people to keep booking or they go out of business..

Their newest one being built will the first in the line of their "Hooligan Class" of ships. It will be christened as the "Walmarks of the Seas" to be launched next year. Others are still in the design process.

I got 7 years on my last Toshiba FireTv. Just replaced it with a larger one this January. I needed the upgrade anyway after all that time.
Of course when I told the guy at Best Buy what I wanted 7 years ago, he tried to upsell me on an outdoor one that cost at least $1000 more than I paid. Glad I didn't listen to him.

Exactly how I do it, except I drop them in the boiling salt water for two minutes then pull them.

They come out perfectly seasoned and easy to peel every time.

I've looked at that Mike Anderson's recipe before and always thought that the 1.5 cups of sugar in there must be a misprint. That seems like an excessive amount to me.

Have you made them before with the full 1.5 cups and didn't have a problem with them browning instantly due to the sugar content?

I will need to give it a try if you say they are as good as the ones in the restaurant.
