yeah, I actually like that stuff, if done properly

wow, that came out of nowhere didn't it

pudding-like things can be made edible, with enough really good vanilla or raspberry syrup. But all family events featured loads of unsweetened whipped cream, and every time I demurred, I got hit with the full guilt-disbelief-ridicule complex, bc how could you not love aerated grease?

it's fluffy spackle

so bad

Jesus, that's just chaos and violence

also parent of three, and you have to at least *try* and if that fails, apologize profusely. I once bought a drink to the guy sitting next to us.

donuts good. whipped cream is of the devil

I have yet to recover from toddler #2 carefully scraping something off the grocery floor and then nibbling on it with great interest as I ran down the aisle to intercept. Please read my parenting book

Team Chupacabra all the way

Or, "all human beings are equal in fundamental dignity" (George 2008), but some are more equal than others

Great going, until RG notes that some "young men" subscribe to far-right anti-democratic ideology that no "girl" has.

That's awfully, awfully early to be up and admiring the view

I recently dyed a pair of wedges, and discovered that latex gloves are awfully useful when using dark brown leather dye.

substance *and* syntax

"surpassing most historical figures in active involvement despite scale"

Possibly the 5th or 6th, depending.

I have made it to the 7th circle of Dante's hell:

*Huge* congratulations, Dr Turner, and ignore the shrivelled pseudonymous corncobs.

This was amazing: hilarious and touching, and reader, I finally read it and then devoured it again.

Nie dziwię się

Hardcore, Collin, hard core

The Delia Smith Christmas Cookbook recipe (for both leaded and vege versions) are all you need.

Czizbord is an essential part of any Krystmas. (And I always look forward to your annual cheese pron photos.)

Here's the thing: if you watch your temps like a hawk and take out that motherf***er out of the oven as soon as it hits 160F and let it rest, you're fine.

Nothing, and I mean nothing, can make carp taste like anything other the the muddy proteinacious goop it is.

Integration has its limits, Alan.

That's dessert, Ben, not dinner, and it's makiełki, not kluski.

We have sausage rolls (food of the gods, especially when made by my husband per the Delia recipe) for Xmas Eve lunch followed by the fish extravaganza dinner, and then on Christmas Day reverse the procedure with oysters for lunch and a giant goose for dinner. No one ever complains.

Not a fan, but have a soft spot for both sweet potato and pumpkin pie.

No marshmallows, though (people think that peanut butter is an all-American test food, but it's really marshmallows, brrr.)

My mother refused, arguing that "candy has no place at dinner," despite fervent entreaties from the younger generation.
