I’d like to avoid onion eyes. Is wearing a snorkel going too far to prevent that? 🤿

Is it true that simmering bolognese for more than 3 hours dries out the meat?

I’ve heard that some people simmer bolognese for 6 or more hours to maximize the flavors. I’ve also heard that over 3 hours of simmering dries out the meat. is that true?

Did I make the right choice by picking a new restaurant to meet my estranged relatives who were friendly with my nMom and nDad?

Some family members of mine who I’ve been estranged with wanted to meet up after 2 decades of not seeing them. They were friendly with my late nMom and nDad.

They let me pick the restaurant and the day/time to meet them for dinner, so I chose a restaurant that I haven’t been to before because I didn’t want to take them to my regular/favorite restaurants in case the meeting doesn’t go well and then it’d be triggering after I go there in the future. The restaurant turned out to be so/so. and the dinner was only 2 hours.

Did I make the right decision by taking them to a neutral restaurant that was new to me?
