I'm a big fan of meat and dough -- meat pies, bao, etc.
Patties! Cheeseburgers!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Empanadas!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Kolaches! Samosas!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sign me up for the dough-and-meat train.
Except, reading the beginning of this conversation made me think I could go out for lunch, but the exertion of taking a shower convinced me that, yeah, it was a good idea I didn't go to work today.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm cooking spare ribs in the oven for tonight. I rubbed them with a rub (thank you, Jamie Oliver) and am ready to put them in. Should I cook them on low heat (250 degrees) for a long time (3 hours) or should I use a higher temperature?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The DH ordered Folded Pizza last night, They make regular pizza, then fold it in halves and then quarters and press it, which turns it into a filled-dough experience. OTH, I had the BEST flat pizza ever. White pizza with potatoes, walnuts, gorgonzola and rosemary. DeeLISHus!

This - you want low & slow so the connective tissue will have time to baste the meat as it melts.

America's Test Kitchen did indoors spare ribs on this weekend's episode, and they cooked them on a rack in a sheet pan over some smoky tea (Lapsong Souchong, I think it was), set the pan on a cooking/pizza stone after it had heated up to 500 degrees, cooked it at that temp for about 30-45 minutes, and then backed it down to 250 for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, IIRC. Oh, and they made sure to cover the pan in tin foil to keep the steaming/smoking contained.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We made stock this weekend with a beef and lamb bone. The lamb was a *terrible* idea; the smell made us both too sick to sleep, and the whole thing is a greasy mess. I hope it doesn't ruin the taste, though.

There is a Golden Retriever in my dining room that my neighbor and I found wandering the busy street by my house. The damn thing is trying to bond with me so I don't call animal control.
Make it stop looking at me with those eyes!
