Does anyone really care about which films get awards?  The Oscars is as much a curiosity as the Miss America Pageant.

It's not supposed to be that way.  Don't give up.

Prison loaf.  Less tasty and malleable than license plates.

Never seen Game of Thrones, but this sounds like someone was reading his early Shakespeare.

Generally it's compared to pork.  Either way, I'm happy to take someone else's word.

I had no idea that anyone besides me ever ate Oreos with white bread.  The bread had to be stale, though, and I preferred the heel, folded over with two Oreos inside.
I didn't watch Sesame Street.

Any suggestions on how to use the jar of mango chutney I bought?  Is this a toasted bread type of add-on or save it for rice or couscous?  Or maybe roast pork or chicken?

Probably it's more like that stuff they make in prison.

Pedestrian, I guess, but I'd like access to Jeeves' ultimate hangover cure.  I mean, I'd really, really like to have it.

Oh, never mind then.  I just run into too many people who have no experience of horses beyond seeing Black Beauty or something, and they get obsessed with the idea that horses are somehow like pretty riding lawnmowers, safer than motorcycles, and cheap to keep because they live on grass, don't they?
And I live in

Somehow the tv series missed out on the humor of the books.  Sort of puzzling.

She just turned 80 a day or so ago, too.

I do hope she has experiences with horses beyond reading about them.
For a little ice water, the cost of keeping horses has risen way beyond what most people can imagine.  Even a regular backyard horse will cost you several thousand dollars a year to maintain, and that's if nothing goes wrong.
It's only going to get

A well-seasoned cast iron frying pan is the best thing for eggs.  Teflon and other non-stick fryware is for wimps.

James Bolam is way on up there in years.  I was sad to see him leave New Tricks, though since my source of New Tricks has been cut off, I've lost twice anyway.

Ah, Rosemary and Thyme.  Maybe the most ineptly written show, in terms of the actual "mysteries," I've ever come across, but I keep on watching anyway.  I don't know why, though I've told myself it's because I like the gardens.
Flowers!  Pretty, pretty flowers, everywhere.
I just saw the one with the three-legged dog

Honestly, I didn't know that spuds had nuts. 
Perhaps the mohel has been otherwise occupied during your visits.

Bertie Wooster.

One reason to use an electric skillet instead of the oven is to avoid heating up the room/house.  That's why fried food is a staple of Southern cooking more than in the northern states.
Air conditioning has changed a lot of things, but old habits, etc.

You can try wetting the burned-on crap, sprinkling baking soda on it, and letting it sit.  Then see how much will scrape off.  Repeat as needed.
It also puts out fires of fat or grease—pass the baking soda, please.
