There’s a theory that many women are drawn to police procedurals/thrillers, etc., because it feels like “practice” for how to avoid getting raped/tortured/killed.

My husband is better (read: more responsible) at household management than I am. What I worry about is that if I predecease him, he will turn into a hermit with no human connection. :-/

There goes my night.
That surprises me. The people I know who went to Yale got better packages than their siblings in state schools.
Tenth grade. Dance class, with mandatory unitards. Fire drill. Outdoor fire drill.
Probably not, but the entire sequence of events is fucked up. They fostered, then adopted three sisters. They wanted two girls, but the sisters were a package deal. While fostering, against state rules, they used to girls’ pictures in campaign press.
I just got a 20% discount code for Sur La Table, that does NOT exclude All Clad. It’s SHOPFALL.

Reading that book really brought into the focus the fact that — to this day — the most distraught places in the world are recent European colonies. Just thinking about the degree, the depth and width of the trauma is just awing. I can’t wrap my brain around it.

I’m not a fan of Calphalon. I do, however, miss the SHAPE of my 8 qt rondeau that they billed as a dutch oven. The damn thing developed hot spots instantly, and the hard anodized shell chipped away, but damnit that was a great size and shape. I’m not prepared to spend $400+ for a decent one.

I have a huge wok that my parents gave me as my first house warming (with a bamboo steamer), in order to cook the traditional foods of my people (Brooklyn Jews). But for smaller stuff, I generally use a big frying pan. I’d be lying if I said I was desperate for a smaller wok.

I got my 10”, covered All Clad chef’s pan for about $50 or $60 from Sur la Table, just because of some weird confluence of events in their computer system. But for something I’m only going to use occassionally? I’ve been more than happy with SlT’s tri-ply house brand, or even any respectable stainless steel.

I debated, but I don’t think it’s worth it. It’s neither a wok, nor a fry pan, and I’m willing to bet you have one of each.

We did get our vodka, but with a scowl. The guy was doing me a favor so I’m not complaining.
Hah. True story. I have a childhood friend who owns some “mixology” bars in NYC, so he hooked with up with wholesale booze for my wedding. Asking him for vodka was... interesting. He went on the big rant about how vodka was the cocktail equivalent of ketchup, blah blah blah. I was like, “Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah, but my…
Fancy cocktail bars don’t serve vodka, period.
All it needed was for the child to be wearing a pair of Osh K’osh B’Gosh in cammo print, while playing with a pink Baby’s First Rifle.
Anything. Even thinking about it, I feel so impotent. That guy needed to be called out.
