  1. This was my first time using the blender for hollandaise and can highly recommend it. I went a little overboard and made bacon wrapped filet mignon topped with a bone marrow and black garlic butter. Served with mashed potatoes and a red wine gravy. I got bored.
  2. Something similar happened to me once, my wife fell and I took her to the doctor and everyone kept giving me weird looks. I was so worried about her that I didn't fully realize the situation until they wanted to speak with her alone and that's when reality finally set in.
  3. Made my wife a version of eggs Benedict. Poached eggs took longer than I expected to get perfect since I haven't done them in a while but hollandaise sauce was excellent and I actually made in the blender this time around. For the meat I've been using chopped Serrano ham since I had it that way in Costa Rica once and fell in love with it.
  4. Mimosas spiked with 99 whatevers. So far I've had the peach (fuzzy navel mimosa ftw), pineapple, mango, and cherry lime.
  5. I just had the worst stout ever. Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout. Terrible, horrible, awful. I guess if you love IPAs and are trying to branch out into stouts then maybe this'll be your speed but if this is your speed we can never drink together.
  6. I don't care who wins as long as it's not the Suns. #norings4cp3 Fandoms can get pretty bad and that's why I mostly just cheer against teams now. Much healthier.
  7. Nope, my wife saw the trailer and said hard pass. Is it good?
  8. After My Name is Dolemite and Coming 2 America, I'm sad he's not in more stuff
  9. There's been a lot of rumors that it's also the last season
  10. Hmm https://www.engadget.com/star-trek-strange-new-worlds-preview-040051197.html
  11. @BruceVC, the goal here is just understanding. I'm not trying to convince them of anything and I doubt I'll be swayed by their arguments but I don't think there should be no dialogue just because neither side can "win." Because as I just said, that's not the goal here.
  12. Wife's family is more split than ever now. The ones that support Russia don't want to hear anything contrary to their beliefs and get really angry when you ask them to explain their position after complaining that no one is taking their view into account. The only bright spot is my wife's aunt in St Petersburg, she says there's nothing she can do about so why discuss it. That's not great but better than the indignation you get from everyone else. Cousin in Ukraine was nearly killed the other day when Russia struck Kiev during the UN visit.
  13. I revisited Pepsi Nitro once I got my hands on the non-vanilla version. This one is much better and less sweet. It's still diabetes inducing but tastes more like Pepsi. I also bought a bottle of Lagavulin 8 year. I was so close to springing for the 16 year but I swear it's about 40 bucks more than I remember it being.
  14. I feel like all cop shows are mostly propaganda and unrealistic. Just like most westerns are about as realistic of a portrayal of their time as a Knight's Tale is of the middle ages.
  15. I dunno, he's gone from one of my favorites to one of my least favorites
  16. You definitely put more thought into it than the writers do
  17. Nuggets are out and now I'm torn because I want Kerr to win but Curry to lose.
  18. Or get her to bite you. Though you'd probably turn into something more akin to a spider version of the Fly than Spiderman.
  19. I had to kill a couple of spiders in my office the other day. Normally I'd just remove them and take them outside but they had me surrounded and I recognize military tactics when I see them. Plus my office is literal literally, as opposed to figurative literally, a closet in the basement, so there wasn't room for all of us in there. I'm pretty sure Australia is some kind of alien experiment.
  20. First thing I did was move it back to the left too.
  21. Sounds a lot like the US
  22. I heard it's super buggy and much harder than the base game. I'm waiting for some patches
  23. Judging by all the LGBTQ content they put in their games I can't imagine they toe the official Russian line. Obviously everyone can and should decide for themselves but I'll continue to support them until they do something I find objectionable.
