I never cook frozen corn (and peas) if I'm going to be serving them in something cold.
Bar maid! Bring me stronger ale! And some plump, succulent babies to eat!

Thank you! Sometimes I can't believe how I got to my age not knowing so many important things!

Frozen corn is blanched and flash frozen. I never cook it for salads.
I think that no matter what age you are, you keep coming upon things that you think you should have known.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OK, it seems there was an unconsidered option 3 for my day: go back to bed and sleep until 3:30.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I have sent tonight to half of my contact list a few friends a 760 words email regarding why they want to see The Gutter Twins shows in September in Tel Aviv. That email included a bunch of links to youtube vids, myspace and official sites addresses and flickr pictures and the best of gushing fangirly honesty.
I hope they all will still talk with me tomorrow morning. But again, as I mentioned (and typoed) there, some things can't be unspoken (the typo was to write "men" instead of "things", which have one letter difference in Hebrew, and those letters are right next to each other on the keyboard).
(This isn't really the same expression as in Hebrew, but this is the closest I've found).
Oh man.
Edit: English, duh.

I've had half a very good day and half a very frustrating afternoon. This morning we went to a picnic for all the parents at D's daycare, and had a blast. There wasn't really food for adults though, so afterwards we headed over to Park Slope to get D some water shoes and grab a bite to eat. We should have stayed close to home (or headed over to Smith St for Bastille Day where we might have had the additional pleasure of running into Scola and another friend who mentioned she was going to be there), because the restaurant we picked kept us waiting an hour before letting us know that the kitchen had lost our order. There is a limit to how long a 1 year-old can be entertained by a glass of water and a straw, so we had to just give it up and leave. We got D's shoes, headed home, and now I'm eating a homemade grilled cheese sandwich.
The moral is, Brooklynistas? Avoid Flipsters on 7th Ave & 9th St. They suck.
