Lieberman, party of one? I have a table for Lieberman, party of one.

*Yentl.

*sigh* Yeah, I live CONUS now and eat a lot more canned/jarred pineapple than fresh. It’s not the same but I know that going in so I’m not disappointed.

Yep. It should have been called The Slashin’ of the Christ.

We used to do this when I was a kid, or more accurately a teenager, in Hawaii. Sometimes somebody would bring a pineapple to a beach party and then either forget a knife or bring one that wasn’t up to the job. So we’d rip the pineapple apart with our hands. It works, especially if the fruit is very ripe, but it’s…

Lemon is an assertive flavor, unlike the other ingredients in hollandaise, so by its nature it is dominant. Also, my favorite hollandaise maker tends to like his lemony and since he is much better at making it than I am, I’m happy to have it any way he wants it.

Actually $900 for the whole set, not quite so bad. But it taught me to read the fine print very carefully. It turns out that in the interest of saving energy, they decided that “Hot” doesn’t actually mean hot. We don’t wash much in hot water, so we got in the habit of just turning the cold water tap almost off when we…

Under your best dress.

I always wondered what happened when the ass windows fogged up.

4. Isn’t older than me, but also uses water that is properly hot.

Canada has extradition treaties with Fiji, too.

Handy to know. I’ve read descriptions of black garlic’s flavor as being “faint” (so why would anyone bother, I wondered) so I could see how it would take quite a bit to get a strong flavor.

Nope. Fiji is an independent country. They probably have extradition treaties with the U.S., though. You might be thinking of Samoa, part of which is an American territory.

I can testify this works great. For smooth fabrics, you can rub a barely-damp cloth over the surface first and that will catch a lot of the surface lint/fur.

Probably not a good idea. The black garlic’s flavor is really subtle and might be completely washed out by the lemon in the hollandaise. Another creamy sauce might work -- how about a black garlic beurre blanc? Black garlic browned butter beurre blanc...?

Came here for this.

I know! I mean, I like Pete Davidson just fine and wish him all the best, but, Kate, honey? Your standards are slipping.

The only thing airlines (and corporations in general) seem to understand is money. So maybe if it costs them some, they will do better next time. Because there’s always a next time.

Now I’ll have to watch that documentary. Thanks!

My folks had one of those bigass dishes and when I visited them I liked to flip to random channels. I always wondered about the channels that seemed to run only commercials. I figured there had to be some reason why they did that, but I don’t know why it never occurred to me it was something porn-related.
