The grime is relentless. It’s almost...aggressive.

That’s actually sort of romantic...Unlike dialing and harassing random women, which is just...gross.

That’s a really good idea! Essentially, you’re having Mexican week, Mediterranean week, etc.

I’ll put in my vote for daal, but I also have to say that sous vide apple pie filling is fabulous. I followed the recipe on Serious Eats, and it was the best apple pie I’ve very made. The apples were fully cooked, but not at all mushy or watery. The technique is a bit of a pain, but the results are worth it.

Yep. I couldn’t get past the first minute. I actually got a shiver down my spine.

I saw him only once, playing the 1999 New Year’s Eve show at Blueberry Hill. Can’t believe that was almost two decades ago.

I was just thinking yesterday about how G&T season is just around the corner. I’m not much of a drinker, but there’s just something about a G&T in the summer that’s just irresistible.

My mom used to make cabbage that way and I looooved it. Unfortunately, it reeked havoc on my guts.

I’ve got one in its steamy hot bath right now. My husband is out of town, so we’re actually having it for dinner tomorrow. I cured the brisket using a Serious Eats method - covering the raw beef with kosher salt, brown sugar, and Prague powder, along with a bunch of whole spices, then vacuum sealing it and leaving it…

But what about the Corgis!? What’s the plan for the Corgis!?

I’m really curious to see how Oprah portrays Deborah. In the book, she’s very volatile and unstable, and not at all likeable. I wonder if Oprah will play her that way, or try to make her more of a sympathetic character.

Honestly, I don’t think anything about this story would be different if Henrietta Lacks had been a poor white woman.

True. I moved to Louisville from STL and I do miss the t-ravs. I found some here in the freezer section at Kroger (Louisa brand!) and thought I was in business. Then I realized they had cheddar cheese in them. WTF? I was terribly disappointed.

I’m a firm believer in drink g at any and all sporting events, especially my child’s hockey games. It softens the pain of defeat. However, the best sporting event at which to drink yourself to the edge of senselessness is Thai boxing. I went to a match in Bangkok with my husband. There were children who would deliver…

And they’re great with cheese, especially blues.

Interesting, though, that when we were moving to Louisville and checking out schools and neighborhoods, i found that 50% of students in St. Matthews go to private schools.

You can always move to Oldham County. It’s lovely out here (Seriously, it is.) and the schools are very good.

Yep. She was apparently very naive and they were not at all forthcoming about how things would actually be. It’s really awful when you think about it. They were manipulating and using a young woman for their own ends. If they’d been upfront about the situation, at least she would have been prepared for what she was…

A lot of it has to do with what you’re exposed to and what you’ve grown up with. However, someone like Trump has surely eaten enough steak with enough grownup people present that he ought to know most adults don’t eat their steak well-done. That means he’s either too clueless or stubborn to try it any other way, or he…

I find it reeeealllly hard to believe that anyone forces Samuel L Jackson to do anything he doesn’t want to do.
