Roast garlic til soft, peel cloves apart and while still warm pinch from the root end andd squeeze directly onto your tongue.

well mostly i love them, but also laws and ethics

Do you accept payment in the form of friendship and bacon?

If you both really want to come to MA, it’s going to be ~16 degrees for the next three nights. But no snow! And you’d have to deal with multiple hugely energetic dorky pit bulls but the food and drinks and follow-up breakfast would be worth it.

I’m thinking.. June?

Grains of paradise YES, fennel pollen no. Not a fennel fan. Nothing is more than 8 weeks old, so I’m not really concerned about age at this point.

Dear Alan Henry,

I demand that at the next meet-up, we all be served “Lifehaquiris”.

They must be made in a sous-vide because a microwave is unavailable (Skillet), in a green glass made of something that wasn’t originally made to be used as a glass (LH logo), budget friendly (Two Cents), contain some kind of…

I just want to eat. Which I realize is a lot to ask for at a dinner party.

I love everything about this.

I can handle kitchen stress. I welcome it! But when it comes to people I don’t like and a dog we don’t know I’m basically at Defcon 100000 levels of anxiety, and that level of brain melt results in the eloquence of the left half of a human evolution timeline.

Seriously I’m less anxious about her parents visiting in a…

I’m having company tomorrow against my will AND we (me) are (is) puppy sitting tonight-Sunday. I need the most labor intensive meal as possible for tomorrow night (it’ll be between 3-15 degrees F with the wind outside, probably won’t grill).

In no particular order (everything is vacuum packed and in a freezer with a…

I’ve never seen “whole crushed nutmeg” as an ingredient in anything.

I feel like this would benefit from say, 3/4 C honey and swap out the brandy for 1 C of dry red wine and basically I could have mamajuana ALL THE TIME.

I mean, as an appetizer, sure. Maybe with a little caraway rye? Nummins.

As a dessert though? Outside of Scandinavia, no thank you.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the hubcaps that correspond correctly to each end of the car?

CAN WE TALK ABOUT WHERE YOU GOT THOSE SOCKS

I tried sales when I was (much) younger. I lasted a year, and in that time I found that my honesty had resulted in more sales than the people who tried to force things on those who couldn’t afford/didn’t need them.

Yes! I busted my ass to get where I am and afford the things I have. It kills me to see people throw away money “because they can” on things they won’t use.

Not to say that I don’t understand! I don’t need a $200 coffee machine in my house that I’m only going to use the same setting on every day - I could do that with…

But it’s unusual! AND YOU SAID EVERY UNUSUAL CAKE

An average 1.5 miles a day doesn’t get you to those places and back, and you’re not hauling newborns (no kids yet)/sporting goods over the next 10 years in a Giulia.

Because it stops being about her budget very quickly when you note the stipulations she’s enacted and that the use of the vehicle will be limited to the 50% of the average distance a person WALKS in a day. (20 mi/week = 1.5 per day, average walking distance over 10k steps per day is approx. 5 miles). This is someone…

I guess your saying I’m ignorant
