Kenning posted:Man I would kill for a huge hunk of blue cheese, a baguette, and some wildflower honey right now. That does sound pretty amazing. Blue cheese was one of those foods for me that I always, always hated until I finally tried some gourmet as gently caress blue cheese and what I was supposed to appreciate finally clicked for me.

Happy Hat posted:They have clearly misunderstood basic human right policies, and have begun to consider brown people a menace to society, furthermore they no longer are able to invest in, or welcome diversity, and this not in a droll manner. That blows, I am super sorry about your lovely friends. You should probably unfriend sooner rather than later, however is more comfortable to you. The longer you stay friends with them the longer they can justify that their lovely opinions are actually okay. Maybe if you get really lucky, unfriending will cause them to undergo some personal reflection and then you can be friends again!

Happy Hat posted:With regards to the dangling stuff, it leaves me limp. Does it help to know that the last consonant of each is the same lip movement, but one is voiced and one is not? "Limp" ends with the sound of the lips moving apart, "limb" ends with that sound plus your actual voice. If I had bothered to actually learn IPA I could probably explain this better.

bartolimu posted:Actually "limb" ends with the bilabial nasal. The "b" is silent just as it is in "lamb." "Limp" ends with an aspirated voiceless bilabial plosive.

I think he was trying to say that for noobs you shouldn't go for your hardest recipes with company. It's probably a sound strategy although I think my version would be more "Don't cook anything you haven't cooked at least 3 times before, or at least make that part non-essential to an enjoyable evening." Edit: sloooooowww Also drat, getting mad about sushi in a Coupons thread. GWC is leaking.

therattle posted:You could do one for salt, the sinister-sounding sodium chloride. " At higher dosages, this is used as an emetic. Take too much, and your renal function could shut down and you die. We asked every food manufacturer why they include this deadly product in their foods. The company line: consumers prefer it and it tastes better. Well, we dug a little deeper..." This reminds me of when I was a kid and I learned that the iron in say, cereal, was actual literal iron the metal. And I was like oh poo poo, isn't eating metal bad? I wonder if the same people who freak out about chemical names would also freak out if the saw a list of the minerals our body uses. Or the chemical names of all the vitamins!

The first week-ish of a diet is the worst part by far anyway. Every time I start a calorie deficit I feel like I can't handle it for a week and then my body adjusts and it's fine.

I bet it's less about "that's confusing" and more "that's marketable." Pork butt is not as fancy sounding as Boston roast. The pork chop names in particular I'm betting will be accompanied by higher prices. I also like the labeling changes though, I can never remember cuts past tenderloin and ribs and poo poo like that.

This is a crap week for everyone I guess. My fiance got laid off, and we're just over 2 weeks to the wedding. He got laid off on Tuesday though and already has two interviews scheduled, so it looks like we'll be just fine, but still, what a pain in the rear end! And I went to the dentist this morning for a checkup, got told that I'm taking very good care of my teeth, but one of my teeth has been mildly sensitive ever since getting a filling in it, and that means I might possibly get to have a root canal. But I get to delay it after the honeymoon at least. edit: On the bright side I made cucumber salad a la Din Tai Fung (which at least on the west coast is a mildly famous Taiwanese dumpling house), and it was delicious. I'm pretty drat sure they make theirs with roasted garlic, mild peppers, chili sesame oil, and rice vinegar, but I can make a pretty close approximation with sambal oelek, sesame oil, and a little sugar. I usually don't bother to roast garlic for it but I did tonight and it was worth it. Hawkperson fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Jun 14, 2013 |

The power went out here. Some dude ran his truck straight into the power line last night. They have been spending all day trying to get a new one up. I spent like 6 hours at Starbucks today recharging devices and using the wifi. Ate a Camembert sandwich that consisted of sourdough bread and a whole shitload of Camembert. Everything else I have in the fridge can either tolerate some time at room temp or is already hosed. I'm moving in a week so I might just use this as an excuse to throw everything away anyhow.
