Quick facts When is it? Every November 29th Tagged as Food & Drink What's the hashtag? #ThrowOutYourLeftoversDay Have we missed something? Let’s face it, there’s a dark dreary backwater to most our refrigerators that are the province of only the most brave.

Throw Out Your Leftovers Day reminds you that a clean fridge is a place where Health y food can live. The most remarkable thing about my mother is that for thirty years she served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found. Calvin Trillin History of Throw Out Your Leftovers Day Throughout the year there’s an epidemic, an epidemic of food being stored in the fridge and forgotten as it rots away in its plastic containers and saran wrapped plates.

Be sure to also read our NBA predictions for each of tonight’s matchups. RJ Barrett (NYK) Over 17.5 points (-125) Line available at BetMGM Sportsbook at time of publishing. What we saw from RJ Barrett in his last game was highly encouraging. After missing multiple games with a migraine, Barrett finally returned to his high-scoring self, which was on full display early in the season. Against the Miami Heat on Friday, Barrett shot 7 of 14 from the field, scored 18 points and returned to playing his usual 30+ minutes. The matchup against the Phoenix Suns is one that Barrett can take advantage of, especially as the third option. A tough draw for small forwards, Barrett should still see plenty of volume, as he’s averaging over 15 field-goal attempts per game. The numbers are through the roof in the games he has

Kostas Tsimikas gives honest assessment of his recent Liverpool form

Image
Full-back Kostas Tsimikas has admitted that he was not happy with his performances for Liverpool prior to his star-turn in a recent win over Brentford. Tsimikas is set to be Liverpool's starting full-back for the foreseeable future after Andy Robertson was ruled out with a shoulder injury recently. Robertson dislocated his shoulder during the October international break and, amid concerns the injury could reoccur in the future, he was forced to undergo surgery on the issue. While surgery proved to be successful, there is no set timeline for the player's return to action. In Robertson's absence, Tsimikas has started three Premier League Game s for the Reds, bagging two assists in a particularly impressing outing against Brentford prior to the November international break.

NFL Commanders vs Cowboys Same Game Parlay picks at +1100 odds

The meat in the Thanksgiving Day NFL sandwich is the NFC East battle between the dynamic Dallas Cowboys and the wobbling Washington Commanders. The Cowboys are double-digit favorites, but one of their 3 losses this season came when they were 12-point favorites against the Cardinals in Week 3, so nothing can be ruled out. Facing them is a Commanders team who have lost 7 of their last 9 games after a 2-0 start, and who turned in an awful result in Week 11 with a 31-19 loss to the Giants, who had been crushed 49-17 by Dallas in their previous game. I have put together a 3-leg Commanders vs Cowboys Same Game Parlay that would provide a payout at +1100 odds with DraftKings Sportsbook at the time of publishing. You can check out the full game preview in our Week 12 NFL predictions , but now let’s take a look at my Commanders vs Cowboys Same Game Parlay for Thursday’s 4:30 pm ET matchup.

There's new messages Ecuador vs Chile: live updates What the coaches said: Nicolás Córdova Stepping into Berizzo's shoes:  “It’s always a tough one when a coach leaves, because there’s a kind of period of mourning. We know it’s a difficult situation - above all, a coach usually has a bit more time to work with their team. And it’s particularly challenging in these circumstances, when you’re in World Cup qualifying.”  Nicolás Córdova , Chile interim head coach Players must show character in Quito: “Above all, I hope we show plenty of personality in this game. I’m sure there’ll be moments when Ecuador are going to have us pinned back in our own half, and we’ll have to show our ability to defend. And I’m sure there are going to be moments when we push them back. We're going to have to be mindful of Ecuador’s ability to hit us on the break, as they’re very quick and direct in attack.” Nicolás Córdova , Chile interim head coach Ecuador fans inside the Estadio Rodrigo Paz Delgad

Rockets vs Warriors: times, how to watch on TV, stream online | NBA

Image
The Rockets are strutting their stuff with a 6-4 record. In their last four Game s, they’ve been on fire, winning three out of four. The Rockets are averaging a measly 109.9 points per Game , shooting as accurately as a blindfolded archer with a 46.7% success rate from the field and a 36.5% accuracy from beyond the arc. With an offensive rating that’s barely making the top 20 at 17th place , it seems like Houston’s offense could use a little more rocket fuel. Golden State had a not-so-golden moment with their 130-123 overtime loss to the OKC Thunder. The Warriors decided to take a 10-point lead for a joyride at halftime. They generously allowed their opponents to outscore them 13-6 in overtime, just to make sure we all got our money’s worth . Talk about a nail-biting rollercoaster of a game!

We’ve got a jam-packed Week 11 slate with a ton of great matchups, including this classic AFC East rivalry showdown between the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills. Both sides are coming off disappointing losses in Week 10 and could really lose a win here to keep pace in the AFC playoff hunt. Before we dive in, don’t forget to read all our other NFL Week 11 picks on sides and totals. And now let’s get right into this Jets vs Bills SGP. Jets ML (+290) Zach Wilson 250+ passing yards (+290) Parlay odds: +964 We have a 2-leg Same Game Parlay, which pays out at almost 10/1 with FanDuel Sportsbook. Let’s break it down. Jets ML (+290) To start this Same Game Parlay we have the Jets on the money line. Buffalo has shown they certainly aren’t anything to be afraid of, and they’ve now lost three of their past four games. Even their recent wins have been unimpressive, like when they only beat the Giants at home because New York stalled on the 1-yard line in the closing seconds. The Jets walke
