Black books is really good, although I’m not sure if it would be appropriate for kids, it’s been a little while since I’ve seen it.

That song immediately popped into my head as soon as I got to that part in the article.

This idea was why I thought the judges’ complaint about one of the bombes (I think it was Priya’s) that one layer was sweeter than the other was a little odd. That seems like the layers would complement each other rather than having two overly sweet layers.

Considering how many of the contestants this season have said they’ve never made choux pastry or other basic things that show up every season, I don’t think repeating technicals would be much of an issue.

I could be mistaken, but doesn’t it seem like they’re filming all three challenges on the same day this season? I’m pretty sure they used to do the first two challenges on one day, then the showstopper the next day. But I’ve noticed this season they’re all wearing the same clothes for all three challenges. I’d have to

At two out of the three places I’ve worked (both of them bars that serve food), the back of house could eat for free, and we could pretty much make whatever we wanted for ourselves. Front of house got a 50% discount, although if there was a mistake or leftovers from a catering thing they could eat that. One of those

This is hilarious but also the reason I’m glad I don’t work in an office. I’d hate to ever be that bored.

I’m assuming they’re mostly just stealing a few fries or something. It’s not like they can take a bite out of a sandwich or steal a slice of pizza without anyone noticing.

I live in Chicago and mostly just see it in stores around St. Patrick’s Day (at least that’s when they prominently display it). I do know of a hot dog place that has it in their soda fountain, and I’ve seen another restaurant serve it. But it’s not super common.

I’m coming for you, Bill Nye.

The restaurant where I work has done as a special a Chicago hot dog burger. It’s a split hot dog on a burger with the toppings of a Chicago style dog.

It’s especially awkward to do all three of those things at once while still making eye contact. Don’t ask me how I know.

For the scrambled eggs, just cook them slowly over low heat, and use a rubber spatula to mix them pretty vigorously so you get small curds, and don’t overcook them. Adding a little bit of milk or cream to the eggs can help, but it isn’t necessary. Or ask for soft scrambled eggs when you go to restaurants.

Great, now this will just add fuel to the fire of that stupid Game of Thrones petition and any other internet campaigns to get studios to change stuff to the internet’s liking.

You put way too much thought into this and I love it. Also love that you have three different people as Ygritte.

Saw John Wick 3. My favorite part was when he killed that guy in that really cool way. 

I think they were just trying to show how little faith Varys had left in Dany that he was trying to poison her to prevent her from doing what she did. I assume she just wasn’t eating because she was upset about Missandei.

100-1 on Jon? I’d give it more like 5-1. Dany, Jon, Grey Worm, and Drogon die. Jon kills Dany, Grey Worm kills Jon, Arya kills Grey Worm. Someone kills Drogon, don’t care who. Gendry becomes king. Arya decides to retire from killing and marries Gendry, and they rule the six kingdoms together, and rebuild King’s

That line was referring to Bronn, which doesn’t make too much more sense, since Bronn cares too much about his own life to try to kill Dany.
