Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Awww...

Teamwork WIN!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think the rap on truffle oil is that it's crutch to make things seem "fancy."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

msbelle, many good thoughts and hugs to you and Mac.

That's entirely it - it's overused like woah.

Or, as Rick Bayless said about truffles, "They don't make things better, they just make them more expensive."

One drop of truffle oil is all you need in a HUGE DISH.

My 2 good friends/fellow-OBOD-druids are vegetarians, and Kaleb is an EXCELLENT cook. They've been nursing the same tiiiiiny bottle of truffle oil for, like, 5 years.

It's totally overwhelming if overused. And easy to overuse.

And can turn a very MEH tempeh dish into I WILL EAT IT ALL NOM NOM NOM.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I had some truffle fries in Seattle that were pretty good.

You infuse a mild oil (like corn) with truffles, much in the same manner you use to make infused vodka.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Or, as Rick Bayless said about truffles, "They don't make things better, they just make them more expensive."

And truffle oil doesn't make things taste like truffles. It makes them taste like truffle oil.

My favorite restaurant in NYC serves a truffled egg toast (made with truffle oil) that is TO DIE FOR, but it's an exception rather than the rule.

Truffle oil in salad dressing? EW EW EW. GET IT OFF.
