Turkey Hash. Specifically, Julia Child's Turkey Hash from The Way to Cook Everything. I've never gotten mine to crust over the way she says it will, but add a couple of fried or poached eggs on the top and you will be more popular than you can dream.

No food snobbery allowed. No looking down your nose at the fat-salt-sweet combo platters that have been handed down from 1950's suburban America to the present.

I hate the color blocking of Bentley's two-tone scheme, and have always believed it to be distracting. At this point I think the car looks better in side- and rear-view because they help me not to see the two tone effect.

sorry, wrong thread

It may be the only automobile currently in production for which I can truly say that I have lust in my heart.

Otis Spunkmeyer Air (could not make that name up) flew two DC-3s on excursion flights around the SF Bay Area, between roughly 1990 and 1999. Never got around to taking one, and now of course it's too late....

Yesyesyesyes. Justin's PB Cups are what Reese's PB Cups want to be when they grow up. And Justin's Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup is a religious experience.

Saw the broadcast on America's Test Kitchen last year, been using the method ever since. Cannot believe how easy and reliable the method is, and I find a soft boiled egg with a creamy yolk and some buttered toast the ultimate in comfort food.

Just about the best fun you can have is to ask a anti-glutenite exactly what gluten is... 99% of time they sputter and fooforaw around. Fun!

Sometimes all you want is a grilled cheese sandwich made with processed American cheese. Period. Because life has been hard, the fates cruel, friends unfaithful, and the world full of tumult. Also your job sucks, your hair is thinning, the DVR didn't record the program you wanted, your car needs expensive repairs and

Good to know that the practice of slut shaming is gender free. Sadly.

"Hocking" = pawning, "hawking", as in "hawking your wares" = flamboyant selling.

If only... meanwhile, here in San Francisco I have spotted (several times, so I'm not hallucinating) a Checker station wagon. I could move into the back half and the driver would not know I'm there unless I throw a large party on Saturday night, and even then only if I invite him

Maybe not so much the proto-Concorde as a flying ocean liner, with all the comforts of crossing the Atlantic on the Queen Mary or Queen Elizabeth. With a cruising speed of 250mph, the 3,300 miles trip between London and NYC would take over 12 hours, so of course you needed a theater for entertainment, a good dinner,

I vote with you for the sheer elegance of the Constellation series. Probably the most beautiful plane that will ever be built.

With this particular jet the windows kepst blowing out during flight due to metal fatigue. I believe it's the early version of the DeHaviland Comet, on which the passenger windows were perfectly square; those sharp corners were prone to metal fatigue, which wasn't well understood at that point.

Because all Christians have an identical view of life, just as all atheists have an identical view of life? I don't believe that the world is as cut and dried as you seem to see it.

You've missed your meds again, didn't you?

Which is exactly why I tip $5 on a $20 pizza or Chinese delivery order; if the delivery guy or gal has six stops to make, guess who's gonna get theirs first? And the fact that most have to use their own vehicle and gas — and I don't — figures into it as well.)
