I was just reading up on teh difference between hollandaise and bernaise and was amused to note that there is a "sauce Colbert" in the family: [link]

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mostly lurking...
Also, potato pancakes get applesauce and sour cream. There can be no dispute on this point.
Yes. This.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Phone: Hey, did I say "welcome back" a couple weeks ago? *Ring*
Me: You did not, and I'm a little hurt by that.
Phone: Well, welcome back. *Ring*
Me: Little late now, don't you think?
Phone: Okay, "Polite Time" is done now. Get over it. *Ring*
Fuckcake O' The Day: Blah blah blah, blah blah blah, issue issue, can I fax what I need to get you over?
Me: Certainly. The number is (area code)-(number).
FCO'tD: Would that be "1-(area code)-(number)?"
Me: ... Yes. If you are not in (area code) it would be "1-(area code)-(number)".
FCO'tD: Okay. I'm never sure about that.
...
We've only had this type of phone protocol (add the number 1 before dialing area code and number if your area code is different) for, like, 4,000 years or something! The hell?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Bernaise sounds much less appetizing for breakfast than hollandaise, but YMSMV (Your Mother Sauce May Vary).
I make a bastardized latke with goat cheese and dill that I serve with salmon and a mustard/dill/yogurt sauce. It's non-traditional, but it's nummy. (And no, I would never dream of serving them for Hannukah. I mean I'm not crazy.)

Gronk. T's still really sick, but TCG is finally feeling better. We're taking my older nephew to a movie and to lunch today. I have to get in all of the spoiling I can while I'm here. We come home tomorrow.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm stuffed full of Burger King (y'all made me need the ersatz tots) but all the sauce talk is making me mentally hungry.

Actually, I grew up in a town that had a switching station, so we never had to do this. I had to learn when I moved away and still do get confused. But that doesn't excuse your Fuckcake O' the Day unless s/he grew up in my hometown.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
When Massachusetts split dialing codes the most recent time, you had to start dialing the area code, but not the 1. So now I do get a little confused sometimes.
