Fajitas etc. when using cheaper beef cuts are prime examples where marinating can will improve the results. Sounds like an opportunity for a culinary skills uplift to broaden ones horizons... :) It has its place and baller top choice cuts are not it... it is a good skill to add IMO, YMMV.

Congrats, and lots of respect for all the hard work it took!

Latest population numbers for Canada show a decline.... yet no level of government is talking about the impact to housing. There are and will be buying opportunities for those that saved some and didn't YOLO away everything thinking they will never see a price decline.

@mimico_polak, like others have said a thermal camera and also to look for air leaks. You have that fireplace, if you don't use it make sure the flue is sealed up. If you do, make sure it is closed when not in use. If you find some rooms are better than others... having doors closed/open can...

@Hardwrkr13 I am with many others here that it does not look correct but that doesn't mean it is entirely wrong depending on what is under the floor. Being an island, maybe there is a trap hidden in the floor with venting??? That second capped drain pipe is also an oddity. An inspection camera...

I am not actually a big fan of the film but for some reason my wife bought me a smaller version of the lamp years ago...

I worked in a Niagara Falls hotel back in my late teens and replaced likely over 100 toilets over the years I worked there. Wax never leaked. It always shocked me how people break hotel toilets....

I am a wax guy personally, just don't cheap out---get one with the plastic core not just the wax. The only time I use a rubber one is if I know it will be temporary (like a reno) and I will need to take the toilet in and out. Like motor oil, you will also get the opposite advise....

This does not help for texts and emails... I have the disconnect triple tone as my voice mail message on our home phone. The calls have pretty much stopped. Depending on how they are set up, many/most autodialers remove disconnected numbers from the rotation--no point in wasting cycles calling...

We have the typical fancy stuff, cappuccino machine, French press, some Turkish deal, etc. We haven't had a classic drip/pot style one for a couple of decades. Day to day, the Keurig is the go-to. I get some don't like it but for us it does good enough and there is no fuss and it is on demand...

Not everyone is a classic GTAM baller 100% of the time with only top shelf cuts that just need "salt and pepper".... only top shelf beer, only top shelf whatever. Won't touch it otherwise.... purist. Cheap or otherwise disappointing cuts will benefit from marinating (technically not tenerizing...

Italian dressing is a simple one and it works well on cheaper cuts. Don't do it over days, you really only need a couple of hours.

Also, if they were regular Ontario plates the front one would need to be removed as well... if they were stolen plates (or a stolen car) plates wouldn't matter as they won't go back to the driver. I think they should be taking a good hard look at dealer plates/listings.

For the plate removal... if at some point I had to remove my plate it is usually a small struggle with seized screws and if I was on the road would I even have the right screwdriver. So... could it have been a dealer plate?
