Not juliana, but RI clam chowder is clear.
Not nearly as pretty as sj, but yup. I loves me some New England style, but RI is tasty and less likely to make me feel like a giant cow.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
That's where all the cutting-edge theoretical physics is.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Not nearly as pretty as sj, but yup.
That's sweet. Completely untrue, but sweet.
As a side note, some Rhode Islanders call Rhode Island clam chowder raunchy chowder, because it looks more like dirty water than broth.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Seeing as Manhattan Clam Chowder was invented in Rhode Island, it wouldn't surprise me if Rhode Island Clam Chowder was invented in Canada.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
To help you deal with the aftereffects of the elephants, I offer Fried Coca Cola Balls
"Abel Gonzales, 36, a computer analyst from Dallas, tried about 15 different varieties before coming up with his perfect recipe -- a batter mix made with Coca-Cola syrup, a drizzle of strawberry syrup, and some strawberries. Balls of the batter are then deep-fried, ending up like ping-pong ball sized doughnuts which are then served in a cup, topped with Coca-Cola syrup, whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and a cherry on the top."
So this is somewhat different from the fried-Coca-Cola batter thing I posted before....
eta: Actually, I think it's different. But maybe not, as this also mentions the state fair thing....

What is even happening?
Not juliana, but RI clam chowder is clear.
Thanks, sj. One google hit tried to tell me it was the tomato based one, but I knew that was the New York-y named one. And did I mean "Manhattan," rather than "Long Island" for the tomato-y chowder?

I guess I did, but it looks like it doesn't matter, anyhow.
New England Clam Chowder is the One True Chowder.
Yes, well, it's the one true Clam Chowder. The Manhattan stuff is clam soup. (New England) Fish Chowder is also all kinds of goodness, and I don't even like fish.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I sadly learnt which way to tip my head during a nosebleed after picking the wrong way. Blech.
Today feels a lot better than last night, which is good because better is good (or at least more good) and because I have a costume still to finish.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Top Chef: Wow, I don't agree with Marisa at all for being so ungracious about a box of freaking lychees. It's not like Otto was sneakily stealing them from the store. He just noted that they weren't paid for, and if it was an issue, someone should have brought it up at the store so it *could* be paid for. And by making a big stupid thing about it, she essentially threw off the entire momentum of her team. Moron.

Word, SA. Otto made a very stupid mistake in not instantly saying "Shit, we need to take these back" as soon as he realized they hadn't been rung up, but Marisa was the one who (a) wouldn't stop whining about it and (b) made such a crappy dessert that they lost the challenge.
