French woman here. I used to live in Damascus and I know Lebanon a bit. It was a wonderful place with great people (and dumbasses, obviously, but the great people were really great). Just wanted to say: I get it. I see you.

Where I'm from, the hyperbole would go "You'll get punched."

You made me laugh in the middle of a pretty shitty day. Thank you.

It took me a while to understand what you meant because we don't write anything on our ballots. There are piles of small cards with one candidate (or list) on each, we (are supposed to) pick one of each and put one in the envelope.
But yeah, I agree with your take.

That's because he's bad at thinking.

It was common in France until my dad's childhood, in the 60s. There were commercials for Ricoré (half coffee, half chickory) in the 80s. AFAIK, you can still buy it in all supermarkets.

Fwiw, it's répertoire.

Mine freeze really, really well. Or (and) look into lacto-fermentation. Tried it last spring and now I'm obsessed.

"Vegetables" are not A Thing. The word just means a part of a plant we eat as a savoury dish. Some are seeds (like peas), or pods with the seeds still inside (green beans), or leaves (spinach, chard), roots or kinda-roots (carrots, garlic, beets), or (baby) flowers (cauliFLOWER, broccoli, Brussels sprouts - all from the same recent cabbage ancestor), lots are fruit (pumpkin, zucchini, cucumber, peppers, tomatoes). I found it fascinating when I planted my first garden 5 years ago, knowing squat about nature. Veggies are just plants where your pick the good part.

Not a staple where I'm from, but aren't there japalenos in there? Bell peppers ?

Franchement, j'ai regardé pour faire plaisir à ma môme. Prête à tout critiquer. Et j'ai adoré.
