also what is the purpose of tracking every single aspect/symptom of your period? is that a fertility thing?

HOLY loving poo poo! god the amount of trendy fish and chip shops that charge you 15 quid for a tiny, overcooked bit of loving cod in an underwhipped bit of batter and 14 anemic chips with the skins still on is beyond a loving joke, and i want everyone who owns one and everyone who has ever eaten in one to die in a massive loving fire yeah i know that's a lot of words about fatty food. everyone has to have one thing that they're willing to die for, and a good chippy is mine, even if the death is from congestive heart failure, idgaf.

EAT THE EGGS RICOLA posted:what's this fish in fish and chips is fried in batter, not breadcrumbs - basically the same stuff as pancake batter but slightly thicker and obviously unsweetened. it has to be heavily whisked to get air into it, otherwise you get a hard crust rather than a light crunchy one. for some reason every single "proper" chef manages to miss that step and it just loving ruins it (alternatively they try and make a beer batter where the co2 from the beer replaces the whipping but they forget to let it stand and all that happens is all the co2 explodes out the moment it hits the oil so you're left with the same hard, stodgy crust but with the taste of stale beer too)

this is why you knead bread dough (strong, hearty dough, a bit of chew - stuff you want in bread) whereas you never want to knead pastry/pie dough (because you want it to be tender, and you'll also melt the little pieces of fat, taking away the flakiness)

(e.g. look at the fish in that lovely kickstarter - looks like it's been loving breaded and toasted)
