Finely diced celery and red onion, pickle relish, mayo, and a good pinch of sugar. That’s how my southern dad did it.

Your face-off with a pig was amazing, but now you’ve really taken the next big step a head and immersed yourself in this project. It seems like no body can stop you! Your challengers will really have to bone up (or just go back to skull) to have any hope of besting you on this one...

Specification-wise, the 2013 Nexus 7 tablet still beats the most recent Kindle Fire 7 tablet by a little bit, to give you an idea of the hardware. The Fire 7 basically has less RAM, a slower processor, and fewer pixels. But it’s still a decent rectangle for the price and can do all the finger-poking things you could…

Cornichons are great and all, but I have to ask: what’s your opinion on sweet gherkins? Because those junky little sugar bombs are my guilty pleasure, and if we’re putting pickles in drinks, I’m thinkin’ one of those could go good in something boozy, too.

I love poke and like to think of it as the laziest form of sushi anyways. I mean that as a high compliment and I’m never ashamed to buy it, especially when it comes with dollops of all of the little things that go with sushi, too: seaweed salad, crab salad, fish eggs, kimchi, edamame... Just trying to source good fish…

Thanks for... uhh... defacing a pig for us, in that special way that you do you. :D

Admittedly, I don’t personally have the required hardware for this, so you may take or leave what I have to say about it - but generally speaking, all of my training and education in human biology, physiology, and healthcare says:

I won’t miss it, personally. “Fizzy black water” basically describes how Coke Zero is to me. It tastes like suffering. :( Maybe a little closer to regular Coke flavor—but only in the worst ways. Except the cherry one. That’s passable. Diet Coke is more my jam. It’s just not... it’s not the same flavor profile as…

Favorite leaf: Anything, really, but it depends a lot on the dressing and any other inclusions. Iceberg is only best when there’s a strong dressing and/or plenty of other added things to disguise it. Otherwise, basically anything else.

Oh man, the Sandwich Day sandwich, I desperately want to know what’s in it, and what’s in that f**ing delicious-looking dip. I remember it looking a little too thick to be just au jus. Some suggest it’s a gravy, but I want to imagine that it’s a little closer to a thinned (but not too thin) pan sauce.

You have made the right choice. Overalls are freaking awesome. For mans, for womans, for everything in-betweenans.

Well, crap. You’re saying all I have to do is not eat toast and I get a house? Why didn’t anyone tell me this sooner? Thanks for shaking my fundamental economic believes with regards to toast consumption versus property ownership.

Does waiting until the caffeine has kicked in enough to settle my morning stomach and then shamefully horking down the nearest thing that doesn’t move when i poke it with a stick count as breakfast? Cause if so, I pretty much don’t stop eating breakfast all day.

I’m not sure child tax credits are about “rewarding” people for not wearing a condom. Could it be more an issue of not punishing people for their fundamental biology, in that we’re all living beings that are wired for reproduction? I dunno. I don’t have kids, and taxes are bad enough. I sort of feel like paying for a…

My new favorite showoff dish is braised lamb shanks, I think. I made them for the first time for Easter, and discovered it was terribly easy for such amazing results. Part of the secret was, oddly, the tiniest dash of cinnamon (like seriously, almost none, but it needs to be in there) in with a red wine and balsamic…

BnB is truly amazing. It’s one of my not-so-secret secret ingredients that I mostly use for making amazing soups and sauces.

If you do, would you share them? I’ve been playing with Inkscape lately, but I don’t think I’m quite up to the task yet. Working on some smaller projects, first.

Barratt Refreshers are a particular guilty pleasure and are probably responsible for 32% of the holes in my teeth at this point. Same with Sherbet Fountains. The new style sherbet fountain packaging is stupid, but I grudgingly admit it’s slightly more hygienic.

Honestly? I kinda just want some printable copies of the stuff that’s tacked up on the wall in the waiting room. Amazing.

Oh man, I’ve been wanting to try a hot water crust, because I really, really want to try my hand at making a proper english pork pie, which I’ve never actually had but desperately want to.
