It’s a great cookbook, and I use it regularly. Particularly the pie and tart dough recipes. The spine has a memory and it opens up to the tart dough recipe by default.

Yeah, this. In a place like SLC, that’s going to be even more pronounced since a lot of the wealth is in the surrounding suburbs, which are much, much, much less progressive and diverse than the city itself.

We’re living in the golden age of “GO BACK TO VENEZUELA!”

Craig Counsel: you are a puppet whose strings have gotten tangled, and are being lifted up by your bat to be tossed into the garbage.

Yup.

Yes, and depth of field doesn’t have anything to do with things being 3D.

God, Ray Hudson sucks ass. An unremarkable cross for a streaking Suarez isn’t “magisterial”. He’s so committed to the bit his pronouncements have no bearing on reality.

Yeah, that’s just a bad first touch. The ball shot out behind him a few feet, which caused the goaltender and the defense to collapse toward the loose ball. If he were able to control it and let it drop in front of him, he would have had an almost sure goal.

I used a Capresso burr grinder for espresso for a while, but had quality issues. First one broke, the warranty replacement followed after a couple months. I bought a Mazzer Mini and never looked back.

No, Britain is the island. Technically, Welsh and Scots are British. England is a country in Britain, like Wales and Scotland and (sometimes) Cornwall.

Don’t you have some goal celebrations to get mad at or something?

I would laugh, because that is inherently silly. The Sharks just lost a game the other night because a) the opposing goalie left the net off the moorings, the refs didn’t catch it, and Kane’s shorthanded goal got called back and b) the late tying goal came after clear high touch that is unreviewable. So yeah, tell me…

There’s no line he has to stand behind. The benches are right next to one another.

Nah. He wasn’t on their bench. If you don’t want an opposing player on the ice to see your whiteboard, don’t leave it where they can see it.

Yo, the Niners moved to Santa Clara in 2014. And they were more than competitive during the Giants 3-in-5 run, what with Harbaugh and going to a Super Bowl and Kaep running a competent offense and all.

Coke bloat is a thing, too.

Frozen minced garlic cubes. I get them at Trader Joe’s. Fingers don’t smell, you can pop 1 or 12 in, don’t sprout or go bad. Tastes just the same.

Let this one go through a treatment plant first, IMO.

I dunno. Why are you arguing about how a team you hate should and shouldn’t celebrate?

An anecdote I really love, but don’t really know if it’s real, is that in WWII Germany would catch American spies posing as Europeans by serving them a slice of pie with the point of the slice to the right or left. Americans will turn the pie point down to eat.
