It takes ten minutes for two pounds worth of chickpeas, and it tastes better that way, so screw ol’ Mehmet-head the snake oil salesman on that one.

The Sunset Tree is such a perfect album. I adore it.

Absolutely. If you’re upset you’re single, listen to Tallahassee. Because then you’ll saying, “Whelp, at least I’m not in that relationship.” That’s one of my favorite concept albums of all time.

Hell yeah! It’s really delicious, too. Not as good as my local Lebanese bakery’s, but still quite good.

I just used the juice. Never heard of putting the zest in hummus before- I shall try that next!

Wouldn’t be any bigger of a clusterfuck than the GOP race. It would be three experienced professionals up there. I’d feel far more comfortable voting for Biden than Clinton, even though I will do it if it comes to it. I vote the party line, always.

I’d love that too. If we can’t have Biden as president, him on the Supreme Court would be a nice consolation.

Lucky! I was seven when Zappa died and already a huge fan. It was a day of mourning in our household. We’re not even Jewish and we basically sat shiva for Frank Zappa. I cried.

I love veggie lasagna! Is it a white sauce or a red sauce, like a margherita lasagna?

Damn, that sounds like Philadelphia.

Poor Zoe. She must have had a rough go of it, to be acting out in such a manner.

Oooh, your dinner sounds amazing. I’m glad the two of you are feeling better!

My jar lasts until November 2017, and it takes a couple of tablespoons per batch of hummus you make, so you’d go through that in no time.

Ah, a teppanyaki grill! I love going to those sometimes. I like watching people cook my food for me, and it’s especially nice when it’s just me and Cindymoo at the table. I want their fried rice recipe though- I have found some online that are purported to be teppanyaki fried rice recipes, and none come close. But…

For the SCOTUS? That would be AMAZING. She certainly has the credentials.

I grew up on Rush and was made fun of SO MUCH for loving them as a kid. (Also loved Floyd, Zappa and ELO, and kids hated me for it in grade, jr. high and high school.) Rush, and prog in general, is music for musicians and smart people.

I understand. Well, here’s to saying “fuck you” to stupid holidays and drinking decent malbec.

Interesting! What I want to know is how The Mountain Goats could be hipstery at all. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen Moral Orel (if not, check it out- whole series is available on Hulu) but in the third and final season, they played the songs No Children, Old College Try and Love, Love, Love. After hearing the first…

Interesting. Let us know how it turns out!

Salted Caramel vodka is amazing in pudding shots.
