I would take the Lexus and have the steering rack done, then deal with the gremlins on their own because the same year and mileage seems to be selling for around $12k. 

With the maybe $2k I gain on this project, I can buy an XJ that’s in worse shape than the one being offered by the other guy and leave it in my…

Poor Murano. I remember the commercial where they advertised pedals that moved up to your feet.

Fuck you, Nissan.

Temper has been the way to go. It takes a little longer, it’s a couple extra dishes, but it’s worth it.

This morning I’m wondering if it’s the particular cast iron that i’m using. This is the same one that has turned my onions green and my garlic blue a few times, so there might be some reaction issues that I’m…

Man it’s so frustrating! And it’s not just soups really, it’s any thickened dairy being added toward the end of a cook. I think the one exception is stroganoff. 

too often is my soup just.. wet. there’s no body to it, it’s just chicken water with floating tomato chunks and lentils. what the hell did i do wrong here, why is it just clear and wet and awful? there’s a tortellini one on kitchn (probably) i’ve tried twice and it ends being just tortellini and onion bits that float…

fuck i thought those were giant bugles

if you were wondering like i was, those *are* the stock mirrors.

Under $10k for a 20 year old Lexus from CA that I’ve wanted since my teens is a good price for me. For teenage me.

Right at $10k, firm, though? Adult me says that problem is that there are vehicles that are simply better at that price or can justify asking a smidge more. Are they as low miled, reliable, clean? It’s…

this is much easier than having to wash a food processor to make 3 different cheesebulbs

ok but that headline reminded me of the poop knife

This is the logical step of where we should be by now. The show is a success, there are new hosts who frustratingly overcommit to a bit that should have never made it to the air. Paul’s thing is that he’s a jerk, Prue’s thing is outfits? I guess?

The talent was a wasteland this year. Peter deserved to win king of the…

I generally spend a month on the fucking VELDT trying to get Marshal to load into a group. I think he’s only showed up naturally in one playthrough, and with incredible, infuriating regularity.

y’know it does sound a lot like you’re playing it

Blade longevity on the peeler, esp for carbon steel.

his best line in that episode is a tie between the throwaway “THIS ROLL IS WET” and at the end when all of the laser-guided socks are trained on him: “Your mother.” 

FRICKIN’ ROBOT TURKEY

How appropriate, you fight like a cow!

to grift the president a second term.

This argument is completely invalid because of the incredible talent of past seasons.

All of those folks cooked on national television, and didn’t have the luxury of living on site with their families during the competition.
