  1. I hope you kept last year's batch because it would be awesome after being aged a year!
  2. Has anyone made Mattnog this year? I think it's pretty close to the cutoff for the holidays but my niece reminded me and I may just throw a batch together.
  3. No conflict. It's ugly.
  4. Steve-like shot of the pizza I made last night. I hadn't made a standard one for awhile (as opposed to Detroit style) but it turned out pretty good.
  5. Sorry for your family's worries, Ian. Both of my twin nieces live in Portland and both have taught at Bates, but neither does currently.
  6. RIP Shaft https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2023-10-24/richard-roundtree-shaft-movies-dead-at-81 And fuck cancer. šŸ¤¬
  7. Hope you had a good one Marc! Cheers!
  8. RIP RIP Rudolph. I love the Isleys and always played my vinyl version of Live It Up! back in the day when we actually had parties where people danced. This summer there was a local restaurant and bar with a DJ outdoors and I requested the Isleys and he ended up doing a medley that finished with B-Boy Bouillabaisse by Beastie Boys, which samples That Lady.
  9. The hinged seat idea might work although it would make the space below far less usable for shoes, etc. I might opt for scrapping the existing vestigial bench altogether, sad as that may be. They could bring it back flush with the cabinets and either leave it walnut or else paint to match. Either way, I would make a couple of little bench stools that you can slide in and out as needed. They could be simple three sided inverted U shapes that are a little shorter and shallower than the cabinets and you can still stow shoes under them. Or just make two smaller stool cubes with a cutout hand hold that sit on either end. You could also leave the walnut the way it is and make stools of some sort, although I don't love the look. Oh, and bonus vocabulary and creative writing points for an excellent use of "vestigial."
  10. Forgot you were in Jerusalem now, Tyler. Stay safe or take your family and get out of there if the state department offers it. Best of luck!
  11. Cuban Chinese restaurants are pretty common but I havenā€™t seen this variation. Sounds tasty
  12. I donā€™t want to start a political discussion here but DiFi had an incredible career as a public servant. Thereā€™s room for debate on whether keeping her in office this long was appropriate but she did it as another service to her state and country. The republicans claimed they would not follow senate protocol and would refuse to allow her appointed replacement to take over her committee assignments etc. They held her hostage in my opinion and Iā€™ll be curious to see how it plays out after she died in office. /end rant RIP Senator Feinstein, you deserve the rest.
  13. Youā€™ll shoot your eye out! Have a good one Wayne! Cheers!
  14. The recipe says to remove the skin and suggests doing it in water or stock that gets strained and used in cooking. I was confused at first, but I think it's meant to be removed and tossed.
  15. I think Alexsander will appreciate it. šŸ˜†
  16. When I read this recipe, I thought of you and your chile verde and enchilada habits and how it would meld them. I'm going to try it with chicken but pork would work too... https://www.seriouseats.com/the-best-chicken-enchiladas-recipe?hid=afbcd5ec2924e6f4f4e9ae4ec9315e2afffcdd9a&did=10340377-20230923&utm_source=seriouseats&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=serious-eats_newsletter&utm_content=092323&lctg=afbcd5ec2924e6f4f4e9ae4ec9315e2afffcdd9a
  17. Happy cocktailing today and many more, Jim! Cheers!
  18. Kingfish is playing next Friday at 2:30pm at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass...
