A lot of stores now allow you to bring your own bags again, though you have to bag your items yourself. Which I actually prefer...

For 35 years I’ve been wondering: what was the deal with the hand mixer in Bachelor Party? Asking for my wife.

The best proof that cheese/seafood combo works: the Filet-O-Fish. Though it IS annoying that they seem to hedge their bet on that by only using a HALF slice of cheese.

Also, I thought it was only in French cuisine that the no cheese on seafood thing was a thing. I put cheese on my linguine and clams all the time.

Cooked oysters?!

Wish I’d seen this vid years ago. I have a lot of trouble not burning some kernels. The rounded-bottom metal bowl! Genius!

I can’t wait til we look back ten years from now (whoever’s still alive on earth anyway) and try to remember why the top two grossing films of 2020 were somehow Bad Boys for Life and Sonic the Hedgehog. And why Birds of Prey won a Best Picture Oscar.

Other variation- Take a handful of Special K and sprinkle it on Vanilla ice cream. Nice little popped rice crunch.

I’m a fan of peanut butter in ice cream in general, but I don’t think it has a place in a sundae. Sundaes should be, generally, pretty simple. hard to beat just ice cream, whipped cream, and hot fudge. Maybe some nuts and a cherry.

Two things- If a hot fudge sundae is on the dessert menu, i ALWAYS order it, no matter the restaurant. I went to a place that had a gold-leafed crab for—i kid you not—$1200. And all these fancy deserts. my wife ordered the fancy desert, I ordered the hot fudge sundae. Which was literally ice cream, whipped cream, hot…

Tried this last night. Prettty good, but is there a way to smooth down the ricotta a little? The little granules are slightly offputting.

This movie does not get the notoriety it deserves, especially when people make lists of Best New York Movies, or Best “One-Day” Movies. It’s top-10 for both.

The last time i saw this movie in its entirety was a screening with a Bill Murray Q&A afterward. Wife and I literally bumped into Bill Murray before it started, spilled some popcorn, he introduced my wife as HIS wife to Elvis Mitchell. Haven’t watched the movie since because, well, how could it get better than that?

They were *ON* A BLUFTONI!

A ‘B’ feels about right. Fairly low-stakes, and pretty clear from the beginning who the main villain was going to be. The problem is that this was essentially a double episode, and the basic structure of crime-misdirect-solve barely held up over 44 minutes. Stretching it to 88 minutes, with all the requisite character…

I did notice he only did that hand to the head thing once the entire movie. he never even introduced himself as a psychic detective.
I was pleased to see more Woody, though, especially after the first Facetime call, which I assumed was all we were going to get out of him, either due to scheduling or budget. 

Trump already looks like he’s about one liter short of saturation point.

I mean, i don’t want the lady at the DMV stopping me at a traffic stop, but at least she won’t have a gun?

Yeah I just did a rewatch, maybe for the third time, and there were a ton of jokes and bits I’d forgotten about or missed. And most still hold up.

Did another rewatch of the whole run in the early days of shutdown. still holds up, though some of the references are getting a TAD dated.

Nah, I think they’re just edging Henry so close to the villainous edge to make his siding with the JSA more impactful. And so not all the kids align with their parents.
BUT... I could see the twist of that choice would be to make Yolanda side with the ISA. Doesn’t make that much sense for her to do, but she is a…
