Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I slice them very thin, dip them in milk and then seasoned yellow cornmeal (it can be as simple as salt and pepper, or you can mix in brown sugar, chili powder, and/or any spice you like), and then fry them over medium heat for about 7-8 minutes per side until they're dark brown and very crispy. I dry them out on a paper towel so the excess oil doesn't get absorbed.
My grandmother used to fry everything in lard. Or bacon grease she collected from frying bacon and kept in a highly unsanitary crock jar on the stove. Fry it! Fry it in lard!
That sounds fantastic. I think that shall be dinner tomorrow.

zenkitty is my new favorite person.
I have chicken fat in the fridge. Maybe I use that.
Watching Michael Gambon driving a subcompact flat-out on BBCA. Sometimes the Brits are weird and wonderful.
Can you wear red without washing out? if not, then no. That's my winter test. My fall test is the ability to wear orange without looking outrageous. I have no test for spring or summers.
My mother used to do color testing. Little gatherings. Tupperware parties for the '80s, I guess. Anyway, the first test was warm/cool (which looks better, gold or silver?). Warm = autumn or spring. Cool = winter or summer. Deep jewel tones like a rich red, deep blue, dark green, etc. = winter. Deep fall tones like oranges, bright yellows, dark lime green, etc. = autumn. Pastel or pale (but blue-toned) colors like light pinks, light blues, mint greens, violets, etc. = summer. Pale autumn colors like peaches, lime greens, light orangey yellows, etc. = spring.
This is the useless knowledge my mother's brief foray into makeovers has left me with.

I always mix animal fats (schmaltz, bacon fat), with other fats like canola or peanut oil. Lets you fry at a highter temp, but still adds flavor.
Did you know that underneath their clothing the entire population of the world is walking around completely naked?
Kristin, I would just like to assure you that under my clothing I do not have the entire population of the world walking around completely naked.
Oooh, that's a good idea re: the chicken fat.
Jeremy Clarkson is texting Kristin Scott Thomas about whether the Peugeot is actually cool. I am still surprised at how popular this car show is in Blighty.
