    I’m going to have to back out. One of the members of my fire station passed away and we are having a memorial service at the same time. I’ll be tied up until about 1300. Maybe we could do something in the evening? If not, I’ll catch the next one.

    I’m following the Dr. McDougall plan so having no oil is important. It takes some getting used to. I found that many of the Thug Kitchen recipes use oil. Happy Herbivore is another series of cookbooks that have great recipes. Best of luck!

    Thanks for the tips @LaraJF! I have had an Instant Pot for a few years and love it. I just recently got a Breville Smart Oven Air while it was on sale and have been making a lot of baked potatoes and sweet potatoes, no-oil French fries, and homemade whole wheat pizzas with it.

    How to know when to quit my current business?

    EXECUTION 
    Why did you stop the Facebook ads? You have customers who want your product. Why does that put you in doubt mode? I would think that would be reassuring.

    That makes for a good story. It shows your dedication to building your business and your army of freedom fighters. Disciplined saving is definitely another area I need to work on. It was good to meet you. Thanks for coming all the way up. I'm definitely motivated to start getting more sh!t...

    Agreed. I had a great time and would definitely go to another one. @Ravens_Shadow, I’m thinking about stealing your idea and starting a new line of low-budget office furniture. Here’s my first prototype. What do you think? Like @Tom.V suggested, I might add some leg holes and a heating duct...

    I got a table for four. As you come in the door make two right turns. It’s right in the corner.

    Since I have a long drive I am going to head out pretty soon. I don't usually watch sports, but if I get there early maybe I could find a table with a view of a TV showing the Air Force vs. Army game. How many are we expecting? I see 4 for sure.

    It’s going to end up being a human resource system. My next big goals are to get a physical location then an employee.

    Yeah that’s me. I like your site. It gave me some ideas. Your wife’s sharpening business is much more well established than mine at the moment. I have a progress thread on the Insider’s section. It’s been slow lately. I work full time as an aeronautical engineer and haven’t been devoting as...

    What’s your favorite set of kitchen knives?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Thanks! There’s a tremendous amount of valuable information on the Inside. Much better than my little progress thread. I just looked up Shun’s sharpening policy. They require customers to package and ship the knives themselves. They also require a fee of $5 for the first knife and $2 for each...

    What’s your favorite set of kitchen knives?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    This is one of the issues that I need to address with my business. Most people don't know how nice it is to actually use a sharp knife. They don't know what they are missing because they have grown so accustomed to using the same old knives and have nothing to compare it to. Selling knives and...
