So many cheeses....

I have this gadget! I got it as a joke for my husband, and we were pleasantly surprised that it works pretty ok. I am definitely going to try making Big Mac sushi now!!

We both know the answer to this lol.

We all love competence, but doing this whole yas kween thing with any politician is fucking horrifying. They’re public servants, they work for us, and the higher up they get the more likely they are to be working publicly against the will and best interest of most Americans. They’re not all soulless ghouls, but your…

I will give my heart to any place that can make me a chocolate malted that actually tastes like malt. Too many places skimp! The Charmery never does, though. Plus I’ve been good friends with the owners since before we moved to Baltimore, and can attest that they are two of the world’s greatest human beings. 

Psaki does an excellent job. If one of the Black women floated for the job shut shit down the way she does, I wonder if members of the press corps would publicly “root” for her “warmth” or decide she is “abrasive” actually. 

Right, like, at the end of the day she basically a Biden spokesperson. Unless you agree with everything Biden does, she’s bound to use her skills for “bad” reasons during her tenure as well as “good.”

I received one of these sushi crappers years ago as a gift, and I’ll bust it out now and again. As you quickly discovered, most of the fun comes from making bastard creations. Hot dog sushi. Cherries and cream cheese. Leftover Mexican food roll using carne asada and cabbage slaw. A personal favorite was a bastardized j…

She’s good at shutting down people intelligently that are ask her questions in bad faith. A definite talent.

Psaki looks like a fucking genius compared to her recent predecessors. How could she not? But yes, she’s being doing a good job, I think. She always seems prepared and poised, especially dealing with the fascist agitprop shills.  Now if they could only get her to up her smokey eye shadow game......

It took a little bit more pressure to crap out the meat than the rice, but a meat log eventually slid out painlessly with almost no mess at all.

I will never try to make any kind of sushi at home, but I do WANT some now.

My spouse and I were just marveling at the concept that some people don’t like leftovers. In our house, if there are leftovers, that is the first thing that gets eaten! Why? Because it is food that is already prepared!!! 

Soup legitimately gets better a day or two later. I also keep a pack of tortillas in the fridge at all times. They stay good forever, and can be used as a vehicle for nearly any leftovers.

The last time I sat in a restaurant with banquette seating, the tables were literally so close together that the waiter thought our table and the neighboring table were a single party. The poor bastard tried to get us to push the tables all the way together and we were like, “Nope, we don’t know each other, there’s…

Team “ban it” here. The idea that unused space is wasted space is an idea that should DIAF in the restaurant trade. Space is a valuable commodity, and it helps condition us to the idea that food is something we can linger over and savor a little. Cramming people in, making it that eating becomes unpleasant and…

Writing my own newspaper column and getting high. This is a terrible example of my abilities, and should not be encouraged.

Where were you when I was writing my headline?

So would you say this has caused the franchise owners to go into full...meltdown?

I watched the Academy Awards this year. A lot of mistakes were made. When Nomadland was announced as Best Picture, I turned it off. (One, I thought the show was over & two, it was a terrible movie. Just awful.)
