lololol

lol we watchin people watchin the flower on the live feed.

They always say that, but I don’t believe them. I cut myself with a sharp knife much more often than I ever would with a dull one. (Usually fingernail tips. A couple of times, just when moving a knife from one board to another. I’m not careless, just quick). A dull knife would never slice my nail off.

ITS MAGIC

This is exactly what I do. I needed to make another batch of vanilla and decided to go bourbon this time instead of vodka. I hear it is amazing in baked goods, and I’m looking forward to trying a homemade bourbon vanilla ice cream 6 months from now lol

My bad; I just looked it up - I usually buy Kirkland brand maple syrup, which is the real deal. They just have close packaging with the Log Cabin brand.

Restaurant supply stores (I have both a Cash & Carry and a Bargreens Ellingson store nearby) are so much fun to shop in. It’s a lot of “so that’s what they use” and “that’s where they get that!” going on. The only things I’d really go for in an RSS though are half sheet baking sheets and boning knives. Oh also,…

It cost me about $20 to buy 20 Grade B vanilla beans from ebay, and another $20 for a 750ml bottle of bourbon to put them in for 6+ months to make an extract. Yeah, it’s $40, but its also 750ml.

I dunno, the stuff I buy is pretty thick. It’s the stuff they sell at Costco; Log Cabin I think?

I love imitation crab, and I prefer fake cheese over real cheese in most cases - well, in any case where it requires melting. So many cheeses will get hard and greesy when melted and its just gross.

yeah that albacore tuna is bomb.

I’ll take some imitation meat strip with my eggs, please. lol In High School I used to call it Fakin’ Bacon.

“mouthfeel” is kind of essential, because what it’s trying to do is distinguish between two similar things. For example, fat is what gives certain items that “mouthfeel”. It’s the difference between chicken broth and chicken stock, which includes fat and more importantly, collagen, which gives it a distinguishing feel…

I’m lucky to have an authentic Texas BBQ place within 30 minutes of my place (live in WA) Their brisket is just amazeballs. They even have the wood shipped from Texas and they have other things like Blue Bell ice cream and that red soda stuff that I can’t remember the name of. (Big Red?). I would like to find…

Garlic aioli is like, my favorite thing ever. I discovered the simplist recipe on Whole30 - just mayo, lemon juice, and garlic (I use garlic powder), and mix until you get the consistancy you want. It’s the most amazing dip for sweet potato fries I mean omg.

if I lived in a house and not an apartment I would gladly spend $$ to get the whole bidet toilet instead of this awkward add-on. But shoot, even the soft-closing lid has me so spoiled that I’ve accidentally slammed lids everywhere else I go and I was like “oops, I forgot” lol

I won’t argue. It definitely saves our household TP for me not to have to use it every time I pee. And I pee a lot.

The one I have cost me like $300, but I never end up using the dryer attachment. It doesn’t work at ALL if you only use the “bidet” setting (which is actually the feminine, or front wash) and for the back, yeah, it takes a minute. I mean sure, if you’re chillin on your phone anyways and you’re in no rush, yeah, maybe…

what I ended up doing is running an extension cord along my counter to the outlet on the other side. Yes, it’s a little bit unsightly, but my counter is full of stuff anyway so it hides it just fine. It’s worth it to have hot water because A. cold water sucks and B. Hot water cleans better anyway
