Then read it again. And keep it nearby.

I don’t eat pork, though I don’t consider it a sin. I just don’t like it. My problem with turkey bacon is that it’s reconstituted. If I wanted fried bologna, I wouldn’t be buying bacon.

I was going to ask if this could be done with other soft fruits (I’m allergic to bananas,) and I have to admit, peaches were the fruit on my mind. I’m not really a fan of fresh peaches, so guess what everyone always brings me when they find them in the store? Yep, that’s right, a bag of peaches I don’t want. Cooked or…

Learn to take advantage of carryover heat and always rest your meats. That’s one of the hardest things to get used to, I think, but it’s also the best way to make certain that you don’t overcook more delicate foods like fish/shellfish and eggs.

You poor thing.

I’m too lazy to make polenta the way you’re supposed to, but farina makes an excellent alternative in a fraction of the time. I’ve never really had polenta where the flavor of the corn was worth the aggravation of “fancying up” the cornmeal mush we grew up with as a breakfast food, so minute farina just works better…

Bacon doesn’t have to be pork though. It can be made out of anything with the correct ratio of fat to meat. My favorite is beef navel, but I’ve also had bacon made out of duck breast and goose breast. (Turkey bacon is almost always terrible, as is chicken bacon and vegan bacon, because of the fat thing.)

I would have thought both the peanut butter and the cheese would overwhelm the flavor of the pecans, but no?

I was wondering where this one was. We had it all the time as kids.

If you can’t find it at the grocer’s World Market will probably have it. It might even be on their website, which means you can order it. I long ago started getting many of my harder to find international ingredients from them.

I don’t know. I think Dolores has the clones so that they can act independently if necessary, which would mean that they’re keeping their communication on a “normal” level, probably to avoid detection. While she may have some awareness of them, there’s no reason to believe or expect that she can act through them or…

If there was more spark to Serac’s story, or progress in Bernard’s, it’d be easier to sit through the rest of this. But there’s just not.

Was anybody else hoping this was about a Cookie Monster themed cookie cookbook when they saw the picture?

I really want pizza and hot wings right now. Thanks a lot, torchbearer2.

We know the rules for the Hosts, but as has already been spoiled by their own advertising, Dolores may not be in a typical Host body, which was designed to be as “real” as possible for the people visiting the Delos parks. So while some of the rules physically are still the same for Dolores, many of them aren’t.

It felt to me like the episode was intended to focus on Serac, but that story kept getting overshadowed by Dolores’s group, one of whom was mostly being ignored by everyone (and is neither a compelling nor particularly well-acted character in the first place) and the other of whom was high and had essentially been…

Every president full stop. Even Fillmore who I think was considered the biggest fuckup before Bush the Sequel.

It was a little like watching one of the grips do a stand-in while the actual actor is in the toilet, wasn’t it?

But Dolores didn’t extend an olive branch to Bernard. One of her copies did, but then he blew himself up. Main Dolores has no idea what they even spoke about, only that he had Bernard and she’d told him to make sure that Bernard stayed in play. (I don’t think the other copies have any idea of what the entire plan is,…

Yeah. With the introduction of Rehoboam and the Soloman system, it’s a lot like Futureworld, Person of Interest and Minority Report all rolled up into one ball of “just show me what Maeve’s fucking doing, okay?”
