I have always hated that feature and now my SUV has it. I’m just accepting it for Greta Thunberg’s sake.

I have discovered a potential way to disable it. Sport mode.

Absolutely disables it. But then your shift points are higher... at least it was for the C300's we had. And just touching the gas made the car want to take off. 😁

There should be a button to push to turn it off. Mine had an (A) on it.

My Accord has a button. But, for some reason it’s no longer an issue. I guess it got used to me disabling it every time I got in my car that it does it by default now.

The longest river in the United States isn't the Mississippi. It is the Missouri River, by 200 miles.

Allegedly, it was discovered by Jerry Lewis and Dikc Clark.

good old fashioned kitchen wax paper can be used to protect polished chrome faucets from water stains and fingerprints.

Come down my direction and I can make you some meatballs and Sunday gravy. Steve Martorano’s recipe that won best meatball. First had it at his restaurant in Paris Las Vegas.

Some call it sauce, some call it gravy including a NYC buddy. Some even put sugar on it - tho very few.

I'd like to think I make a nice spaghetti sauce. I've always had good reports on it when folks eat it. I usually do it in the slow cooker and let it cook all day long. I'm not a big fan of meatballs. I haven't found a recipe that I liked even though I've tried a hand full of them that were given to me from various family and friends.

My sauce/gravy is ground beef and ground Italian sausage for the meat portion. Diced onion, garlic, green peppers. Italian herbs, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and diced or crushed tomato. I prefer it on the spicy side but I usually make it in the middle of the road since some people don't like "make your head sweat" type of spag sauce. I can always add some hot sauce to my serving.

Many years ago one of my neighbors had an awesome spag sauce recipe that her Polish grandmother used (her grandmother was a Polish refugee that escaped during WWII). Her recipe is was really good. I remember that it used a large portion of tomato soup as part of the tomato part but still with tomato sauce and paste. Maybe back in the WWII era it was easier to get tomato soup rather than tomato sauce (?). It sounds backwards to use tomato soup as a large portion of the tomato base but after it simmered all day and boiled down the sauce was awesome.

I use to make a big batches of it every couple of months and freeze it. Sadly I lost the recipe and lost contact with the former neighbors.
