I think we have a good working relationship here. I post, and you post borderline psychotic responses. It seems to work.

This is the post that really stood out, though:

What?? Where I am, CPS means "Child Protective Services". Are you saying you would try to get my children taken away because of my opinions on cooking? I take back everything I said about SubG. This is the most mentally unbalanced post in this whole discussion.

I cannot even imagine what CPS would have to do with this. What is the thought process behind this? Is it something like, "I will tell on you to SA, and if they won't do anything I will tell on you to the government." How would this conversation go?

We haven't forgotten about that time you tried to poison your family by puddling a whole beef tenderloin.

Dear E/N,
I do not think that calling assistants 'Anally retentive' should be punishable when you explain the term in details, including making constipated sounds when doing so!

Also was offered a promotion!

Finally - we have reinstated emergency lapdance money, since CIO office support are filling the halls with motivational poo poo about no I in TEAM, and we have never seen anything like a lapdance motivate a guy to perform in every way that counts!

We are rooting for the team!

Tomorrow I will make posters!

There's no I in "team", but there is a ME.

How was the food?

We got the tasting menu + wine pairing: http://www.quincerestaurant.com/menus.html

Wine pairing was one of the best I've ever had, food was pretty good overall. The standouts for me were one of the intro bites at the beginning (rosemary mini-madeleines and goat cheese), the white asparagus, lobster fagotelli, and the lychee float.

The place is gorgeous but there were too many servers and it was creepy, also BF got drunk after the first cocktail and I think he didn't appreciate the food as much. Also holy sticker shock.

They all agreed with me though..

So that is why I had to reiterate, and make it clear to them that I was speaking of them personally, and not the analysts in the business.

Then they agreed not so much.

The subtitles are rather ropey but it's a great show.
edit: later episodes have more on the actual processes of cooking and preparation

I just sat here mesmerized and watched that whole thing. That was really cool.

I'd just like to go on record saying: gently caress YOU, YOU JUNKIE FUCKSTICKS DICKBISCUIT COCKPLOW NO-BRAINED SHITEATING CUNTS.

We (my sister, my cousin and I) have spent pretty much all of our savings fixing up the summer cottage we inherited from our grandparents. Nothing super fancy, but I wanted to upgrade the kitchen so we would have more than two electric coils and a toaster oven to cook on - so I went with a counter-mounted induction rig and a decent oven, a nice porcelain sink, a fairly pricy countertop etc. We also renovated the bathroom.

Some worthless excuse for a human being broke in (smashing the new door and a window) and used a skilsaw to cut out the induction burners and the oven. Not happy with just stealing, they decided to smash up the sinks in both kitchen and bathrooms and broke the cistern for the toilet - so in addition to the damage to door and window, there's now water damage all over. Early estimates for repairs & replacements are in the $12-15k range, what with parts and labour for window, door, plumbing, new floors, new drywall, stove etc.

We have insurance, but my cousin called them today and they said they were experiencing longer than usual processing of claims, so we shouldn't expect to see any money before october. That's the vacations of three families out the loving window, as none of us have the means to finance the repairs and replacements.

rear end. Holes.

Someone do something idiotic to cheer me up, please.

Let me know if you want me to fly over there and dispense some good ol' American-style justice :jihad:

When you say greens, do you mean literally canned greens like mustard greens, collard greens, and so on, or are you just meaning anything at all that's green and/or leafy like lettuce, spinach, radishes, artichokes, and so on? I love salad, and one of the concerns in the back of my mind when embarking on this fast food diet was thought I wouldn't get enough vitamins or whatever is good about vegetables. I thought you were supposed to avoid fruits and vegetables, though, because of them being loaded with carbs and stuff?

Forgive me if I sound stupid as hell, I really am this ignorant.

Leafy greens should not come in cans. Vegetables, in general, aren't very good out of a can, but especially leafy greens.

After a month of working 6-day weeks I've got a three day weekend. I celebrated with a trip the the farmers market and they had fresh okra and eggplant. Sjurygg posted this recipe in the general questions thread and I remembered thinking it sounded good, so it's simmering on my stove right now with the addition of a few serrano chiles. I've got five quarts of spicy bread and butter pickles (where the rest of the serranos went) cooling and a big bag of wax beans to end for something tomorrow. It's nice to have time to devote a whole day to kitchen-puttering and laundry again.

Also I found a bottle of Bordeaux blanc I'd forgotten I had and it's tasting pretty drat great. Happy socialist government holiday weekend, everyone.

That stew sounds super good. I've got spicy chicken thighs in the slow cooker for tacos, and a delicious margarita in hand, after spending the whole day running errands (mostly garden-related). Tomorrow I'm going to plant a bunch of things and also build furniture for my tiny, counter-less kitchen, and also make delicious pork ribs.

But tonight is tequila and tacos and video games with boyfran.

Also Bart buy the Ascension expansions and play with us!
