TTODewbackPuts the drawl in ya'llI think I'm in HellRegistered Userregular
I almost applied for a culinarian school when I was in like 9th grade but then I remembered I was lazy and working in a kitchen is the worst job for a lazy person
Also I think the school I was looking at was one of those scam for profit fake schools
Bless your heart.

My friend makes these marshmallow-like candies - they're not soft, but they have the same sort of texture and consistency. She makes them with egg white and sugar and flavours them in different ways, like vanilla or pineapple, etc.
They are so good.
Each one is about the size of a large marshmallow, and supposedly are, like, 25 calories? I'm side-eyeing that number, but she said she ran the numbers several times.

I have been wanting cheese (or queso, even better!) fries since the pandemic started
but you obviously can't order that for takeout/delivery, it'll be ruined by the time you get it to the house
when will my yearning be satisfied : (
just have to find somewhere that does them takeout and eat them in your car i guess
I could eat them at the restaurant now that I'm vaxxed, or at an outside eating area if I'm feeling cautious, I just haven't looked for and gone to a place that makes them
alamo drafthouse made good fries that you could order with queso and I want themmmmm
Speaking of, gf really wants to go to California at some point and I told her that my condition for such a trip is that we must plan sufficiently ahead of time that we could get a table at the French Laundry
Then we looked at the prices and I argued that $350 a head is, in fact, a democratization of fine dining for the everyman because it isn't a club where you can only get in with a $15k yearly membership

My favorite place that made manchego cheese fries went out of business so I had to learn how to make them at home. The only hard part is not doing it every day and expiring. I had to stop buying the ingredients.

Meringue
Right, yeah, I should have just said that, haha.
Oddly, I've never liked meringue on lemon meringue pie. When I was a kid I would eat the meringue off it to get it out of the way, and then replace it with whipping cream.
But these little meringue candies are amazing.

The way some folks might spend a couple hundred to hit the casino on a Saturday night, or a concert + shirt + beers, I kind of see bucket list dining experiences the same way
Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.
we've been to food trucks and a couple of restaurants, but we've eaten outside (usually the kids are with us and they aren't vaxxed)
I haven't eaten inside
i guess i also don't have children i love and am trying to protect
idk if I missed my window now???
eg I'd like to go see the green knight
but I don't want to get delta'd and spread it all around
i think working with the public so much has abraded my emotional nerve endings. i get a little squicked out in super high density places (like when i went to the ren fest). but i work around thousands of people every week and they're not masked so i just don't restrict the activities i do at all anymore.

I think shrimp are my only no-go
And even then I used to put down portions of the shrimp scampi at Red Lobster
But like, shrimp cocktail, or fried shrimp I don't do
I mean you say that but when I approach people in the street with my burlap sack full of little debbies, I never get too many takers
Mine is jelly donuts, I just dont like em even if theyre good ones.
Cooking a new thing can be a fun vacation activity 👀
just have to find somewhere that does them takeout and eat them in your car i guess
I just don't understand why you had to unwrap them all.
They are so good.

My wife and I have actually taken to doing these at home if we can't think of anything better for dinner
Freezer oven fries (we like Ore Ida extra crispy)
Chili (turns out Amy's sucks, Wolf brand is okay, Hormel is good)
Shredded cheese or make a quick queso
Chopped onion
It's also a good way to go nuts:
Diced fresh button mushrooms?
Bell pepper?
A fried egg?
But I am also going to bat for Havarti
when you learn to make them yourself

this makes it sound like you do in fact have children but you hate the little bastards
That is my main contribution to this conversation

oh wait, it's near Napa?
I'm gonna be there in a little over a month.
Is this somewhere I should try to go?
