I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Who did I recently hear decrying club sandwiches? Anthony Bourdain?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Mmm, waffle sandwiches. There's a couple places around here that specialize in them.

We're doing this time capsule sort of thing and I need to come up with 1 Hard Lesson I Learned and 1 Thing I Did I'm Proud Of in 2016, 2 Ways I Can Help Others and 2 New Things I Want to Try in 2017 (the form calls for three but I already have cheesemaking)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

To make a sandwich, there has to be (at least) two pieces of bread or bread substitute. A wrap is not a sandwich. A hot dog in a bun is not a sandwich. If you rip the bun in two and put a hot dog in there? Still not a sandwich, because the bun should be remain intact to keep the chili from dripping on your hand.

Were hot dog buns invented specifically for hot dogs? Or did they exist before the hot dog for some other purpose? What did we eat hot dogs on before the bun?

Which came first, the hot dog or the bun?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thanks to GBBO, I know that what we would call a hot dog bun is sometimes used to make an "iced bun", where the center has whipped cream and jam and then the top is iced. Even to me, a big fan of sugar and bread, this seems like a ridiculous amount of sugar and white bread.

GBBO taught me that macarons are delicious. For some reason I thought they were hard and coconutty (I dislike coconut), but instead they're something I have to talk myself out of buying at the bakery at the fancy-schmancy grocery store down the road.

The coconut ones are macaroons, with 2 Os. Macarons are the fancy awesome ones.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I could argue that a club sandwich is just two sandwiches stacked on each other.

You could, but you would be wrong.

I prefer macaroons, because I like coconut and find macarons to be better to look at than to eat.

That doesn't mean I'm not going to make them some time!
