I agree but the CDC doesn’t think so ;)

People have been eating it for years. Had some a couple weeks ago and more today. Gotta make sure it tastes right before I waste time baking to find out something wasn't right eventhough I'm paying attention and using the right ingredients.

But I've been making dough without eggs to eat for years, though the flour seems to be more the cdcs problem now. But bleached flour should still be fine. I can imagine if you are using some of the other types that have become more popular it could be a problem.

I thought you might enjoy this. The beat writer for the Bradley Braves basketball team, is a distant relation to Walt Disney.
This article tells his 1964 childhood trip to California where they met Walt and Roy:

On Aug. 4, my parents loaded us kids in the station wagon and off we went to Burbank. We were escorted to the commissary and seated at a table with Walt's brother, Roy, the businessman behind the burgeoning entertainment empire.

My 16-year-old sister, Dianne, provided the most memorable moment during this time. She told Roy that she liked the Beatles, the musical sensations from England who had just arrived in America.

Asked the balding Roy, "What do the Beatles have that I don't have?"

Without a beat, my sister replied, "Hair."

Roy loved it. My mom, though, wanted to crawl under the table.

Walt was in good spirits as he exchanged pleasantries with each member of my family. Then he turned abruptly to me and asked, "Young man, what do you like most?"

Without a thought, I blurted out, "baseball," much to my mother's chagrin. Why not say Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck? I was more into Mickey Mantle and Don Drysdale.

I remember Walt pausing, his kind, dark eyes looking me over. He asked if I watched any Disney shows.

"Yes sir, I watch the 'Mickey Mouse Club' and I see you on the 'Wonderful World of Color,'" I said, redeeming myself. He smiled and said he hoped I had fun the next day at Disneyland.

With that, he was off.

My mom would always say that Walt was most interested in talking with me because I was his target audience. At 9 years old, I was the perfect age to become immersed in the magical world he had created.
 
It's right next to Joffrey's coffee. I was there yesterday and from the overhead menu (the structure was surrounded by shrubs) I could see pretzel and churros as food options, lots of alcoholic drinks and soda

Ah ok thanks, couldn’t quite picture where. That is good to add a bit more there as when we were there in August that Joffrey’s was almost hidden

Aquaman trounces Poppins in opening weekend haul

https://variety.com/2018/film/box-o...ins-returns-bumblebee-holiday-1203095264/amp/

Aquaman made an estimated $72m while Mary Poppins Returns took in $22.2m, $31m over the 5 day opening ($51m worldwide)

Musicals tend to start slowly so will be interesting to see how it does going forward

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Poppins numbers increase significantly on Christmas Eve-Christmas. A lot of my friends are holding off to go see it Christmas afternoon (I'm taking six Littles to go see it Christmas Eve afternoon).

Saw Aquaman last night. Outstanding movie! Very well done.

Bumble Bee took home as much as Mary Poppins. Local VIP theatre hardly sold any seats for Mary Poppins last night. Aquaman filled multiple theatres.

I’m surprised Aquaman did so well. I know many said they weren’t that interested in it.

Saw Poppins today and my theater was almost sold out. I really enjoyed it.
