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?
Seeing as Manhattan Clam Chowder was invented in Rhode Island, it wouldn't surprise me if Rhode Island Clam Chowder was invented in Canada.
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.
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.
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.
Hey!
What? That's where I first heard that the universe is a hologram. And these so-called reputable scientific journals always leave out the stuff about the giant ants.

Usually, yes, but not always:

Kat, I'm desperately hoping you were asleep for the entire time in between your last two posts.
Jesse, surprisingly, I actually kind of wasn't. I sleep in drips of about 3 hours now. Then up for a bit then back to sleep. It's unhealthy.
Top Chef: I know! And the thing is, the judges pretty much said that if Otto owned up, they'd boot Marisa instead. So his big act to keep himself from being booted saved her ass.
I'm stealing your sleep, I swear.
I'm glad for the time change coming (though I hate the light situation in the evening ) because it's been getting harder and harder to wake up. Each night this week, I've gone to bed earlier than the night before. And each day, I've been waking up later, having slept through the alarm. It's annoying.
