I love my Nordicware Bundt pan, though. Works like a dream.
I'm pretty sure that's the brand I have too. It's marvellous.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

[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.

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

Sorry about the coffee, Perkins.
I just sent a complaint to a corporate HQ. The DH and I went to one of those meal-assembly places (I had a 50% off coupon), and I carefully read menus online before placing our order because of his milk/meat restriction. One of the menus had a substitution to make it dairy free, but when we got there another ingredient had dairy in it. I told the manager and he started to tell me about how his lactose intolerant girlfriend could eat it just fine. I actually said to the man, "does your girlfriend know you talk about her medical issues to customers?" Now I'm hoping HQ gives me another 50% off coupon.

Wow. That is so many different levels of fail.

NORA!! YAY!!
I assume there will be much celebrating. Did Tom come away from the oyster reletively unscathed? I know you said he was unwell, but did he get it out of his system relatively OK?
BIRTHDAY HAPPIES TO JILLI!!!

I cook, I don't bake.
I do both and I still wouldn't get much use out of a bundt pan.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Super behind, but:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JILLI!!!
YAY NORA!!!!
Pix, I hope it works out. Hil, I'll pay for Vortex to smack your advisor.
Re: The Fernet article: R Bar, which he calls out, is also a Boston bar, and is one of my neighborhood hangouts (I've taken Perkins there). Yeah, it's clean-professional-types as a rule, but it's also an industry bar. I love it.

But they're pretty! Okay, so I don't actually have one of the plain ones with the hole in the middle (what are they called?), because they're boring, but I tend to have one of everything else, including mini-bundt pans, because I love the cathedralesque architecture so much.

I think those are just called tube pans.
I not only have a bundt pan, but I have this absurd 6-cup mini bundt muffin type pan which I've used maybe once in my baking life. It's not useful, but it's so cute!
