That seemed to be one possibility to us... but wouldn't fly for us... :)
I could imagine waiters parading through the
dining room with these long-stemmed things
as if they were a suckling pig or similar.
I can quite see that scenario... ;)
Like parading a suckling pig or an entire
foie gras through the dining room. Vegans
need their pomp and circumstance, too.
There are a lot of doofy things that people will
pay extra for ... carrot tops and such. Of course,
carrot tops are perfectly edible (they go well in
stock), though they are strong and unless very
well cooked or disguised numb your tongue.
I shall remember the warning... :)
They're perfectly fine, just need to be dealt
with with care.
didn't say much; I have many friends who are almost
as eminent (Helen among them) but who don't have the
supreme self-confidence to ignore that sort of thing.
Probably makes for a more copesetic existence to just ignore such
people... :) After all, he has nothing to have to prove... :)
Those of us with something to prove may get
a bit huffy, though.
Then there are the ones (mostly acquaintances rather
than friends) who spend their lives being important,
like this one.
Yup.
She got put on our board of directors as
well. Wouldn't be surprised if she had
special new business cards made.
She liked Fellini films and such....
Fellini? There are boobs in his movies!
True, but that's not all of it, of course... ;)
Yes, there are the boobs who watch!
By the time she'd retired and all, the participation part had become
very raunchy.... before, it was pretty good-natured, and I rather
enjoyed it when it was at the Coronet...
I've heard about the raunch.
Thankfully, I only heard about the raunch myself... It made her quite
sad.... she actually had to view it, when she was working at the Little,
and finally had to beg off being part of that....
I don't mind raunch, even disgusting raunch,
if nobody is actually hurt. If it ends up
smelling bad, all bets are off.
Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Now, THAT IS an experience... ;)
And probably something not to be done until
your shots are up to date.
Maybe nowadays... Back then, even the debris afterwards was all pretty clean, just like the audience participation...
It might also have been the neighborhood.
Thing is that one could have a visible presence
while taking away the gates and the accounting
systems and probably still save money.
Ok, I can see that...
Running public utilities is a headache.
True.... :)
Oh, this poor soul tore her hair out about it,
and she didn't have much hair to spare. Pity -
I liked her a lot.
of heavy cream. Then you use your best nonstick
pan to make the crepes with. It's not genius
material but always makes people impressed and
happy (you took all this trouble for me?)
Hopefully it all went well... :)
I inquired and got no response. That may
indicate an interruption in the mail, but
it may mean it didn't go so well as all that.
Title: Artichoke Tart In Walnut Pastry
Probably stones or such to hold the pastry flat while it does the first partial bake..... but I also note that the instructions above that are missing vital endings of the steps.... so the whole thing is flawed...
A real cook would be able to figure out the
procedure. On the other hand, a real cook would
not need the recipe in the first place.
