If this person was in the U.S., he would have rolled out of the car firing a gun rather than stabbing with a knife, and far more people would be dead.

They’re a semolina flour cookie filled with pastry cream. They made them at la brea bakery when I was in school, I don't know if they still do, but Silverton, the baker & pastry chef at la brea had the in a cookbook, I found a link and posted it below. The are great, but it took my like ten tries to get the recipe…

They take forever, but they are delicious! https://books.google.com/books?id=NynYr…

Oh my god. I have multiple chobani in my fridge and not I cannot imagine eating it without thinking about fungus.

Those peanut butter cookies with Hershey’s kisses are like a birthright in the Midwest. I grew up there, and loathe chocolate and peanut butter, they were everywhere when I was a kid. You need a really dirty mind to see boobs in those. My nun’s breast cookies? Tho just straight up look like boobs.

Kiddos in Houston also are very fortunate that we have access to clinics. I think there are five clinics in the city that are legal after the courts upheld HB 2, for surgical procedures. There are also gynocologists who will perform abortions in hospital, which we have tons of here. Far better off than those in the…

This makes me want to stroll down the street to see if the local school wifi is open and do some pro choice googling. This seems surprising for Houston, but Lamar is in a very fancy neighborhood, represented by John Culberson. He is a fucko. His two big initiatives I know about are his deranged opposition to a light…

I bet it is equal to how much I hate eating them! Hot lunch = yum, team thermos for life.

I hate peanuts, like throw up at the scent of them, and Until the magic of lots of non-pea-nut butters I had never experienced the magic of a ab&j (almond butter and jam) on wheat after exercise. It is crazy how tasty and satisfying a half sandwich can be when you’re worn out.

Oh man, now I want to eats samosas while drinking mimosas!

I love dresses, but Of J. crew’s wear to work dresses, 30 out of 34 are sleeveless or teeny cap sleeved. Do you guys go bare armed at work? My workplace is pretty conservative, but I think it would make uncomfortable and chilly even if other women wore sleeveless tops. I’m sick to death of layering always being the…

My favorite place in the world as a kid was my great aunt’s; she had hundreds of shelve of stuff. It was all very clean, she wasn’t a hoarder, but room after room (including 3 hidden ones!) with books, figurines, antiques, and old toys. It was amazing. I’ve discovered that though I love all the things, I am way to…

Me too! They were great. I used to fly to Guam via Honolulu, a surprisingly dominated by regulars flight. They would serve ice cream sundaes and warm cookies. People are usually ecstatic flying to Honolulu from Houston, I think they are the happiest flyers I've ever seen.

Flying United does suck. I live in Houston, formerly home to Continental airlines before they merged with United, where United currently holds 78% market share at our main airport, Intercontinental. I fly a lot, and in the last year every flight I've been on was jammed to capacity, and on most about a third of…

I’m surprised, I hate ice on planes and the stupid waste of a cup and it is always a race to try to get a new can before they start pouring for me from an open, half empty, flat can. They also almost always open it before handing it to me if I get my can. I always thought it was united being their unbelievably cheap…

I love Chuck Schumer!

I can’t say I stay awake nights thinking about it but it does annoy me. If this was an age old custom, then maybe, but this seems like one of those tourist customs that became something you check off a list, somewhere around 2008, it doesn’t seem at all romantic to me. It’s also an excellent demonstration of the…

I can’t stand juice.

Yeah, I don’t think I’ve seen any comments on the students side. The situation highlights one thing that we all know for sure by now: universities are total crap at adjudicating complaints. I think the woman who alleges assault is reasonable to be angry about the professor’s initial essay. The piece was snide and…

I agree,nit is how always feel when I try to figure out what the fuck (and I'm hesitant to even say the words)the gamer gate people are going nuts over.
