You obviously have not been to San Francisco in the summertime.

Yeah, hot chocolate is probably the last thing I would consider ordering with a burger and fries.

I’ll have you know next week’s forecast for southern California only has the temperature going up to the mid 60s. I expect all to feel a deep chilling of the bones as they don their Canada Goose arctic survival jackets.

Yes, just what we need here in Southern California where it’s 90 degrees on Thanksgiving. Hot chocolate.

Yes, she’s “makes your girlfriend make comments you’re not really sure how to interpret” gorgeous.

Keep in mind that only applies if you’re white though, so you do have an actual heritage in that respect. I get to be a black chick from Iowa. The nearest I’ve been to places like Compton or Cabrini Green is in a circling airplane, but I guess somehow that makes me thugged up by color association? So many of us don’t…

Rummikub is my favorite, though it’s tough to find people that know how to play and also play with my cutthroat competitiveness. This competitiveness is reserved exclusively for Rummikub.

He is also a jet ski enthusiast. A jet ski is a smaller hydroplane that fits 1-2 people and is ridden like a penny-farthing.

God, that “ronk ronk RONK” sound was the worst, wasn’t it?

I found this last week shopping for Xmas snacks. Very tasty if a bit expensive (duh it’s Di Bruno Bros).

I first did a beer cheese a couple years ago for a 5-course meal that contained at least one kind of alcohol for each course. Once I realized how simple the gooey concoction was to create, it has sort of become my go to item for parties and potlucks.

I concur on the Mama Thai noodles. I prefer the Tom Yum, but the pork ramen is a close second, and neither runs anywhere near $8 where I live.

Literally now literally means not literally.

We seem to do better with a 3-gallon situation. 5 gallons comes in at 2 cases which can be a LOT if it doesn’t come out quite right or is a style we were experimenting with. But 3 gallons seems to be enough to have some on hand and give some away.

I just want to party with those far out chicks in the picture. Ohio looks like a fun place.
