If one wants to "add to" apple pie: real whipped cream > Reddi Wip > vanilla ice cream.

No, can't honestly say I've ever tried that, or even heard of it.  It sounds interesting, in a "let's throw this in the campfire and see what happens" sort of way.  laugh

I have been hearing about this for years, but I've never been somewhere that serves it. On the rare occasion I want pie that isn't pumpkin, I prefer Dutch Apple with it's crumbly topping. Not sure how the cheese would compliment that, but as a fat kid, I'm willing to try. 

Not much of a "pie" fan though, it seems like everybodies grandmothers forgot to teach them how to make a proper crust. Storebought pies/crusts just don't taste good, and don't hold up to the overliquid and sickeningly sweet jarred filling.

re: Cheddar Cheese on Apple Pie

During school I worked at a popular tex-mex casual dining restaurant that used to advertise the inefficiency of the burger preparation, and tried to be known for the Ribs and BBq sauce.  We also had chicken alfredo, because... why not?  Well, one day, one of my fellow servers was hustling too fast during lunch service... balancing a drink refill for one table and a chxalf for another table and they got jostled.  Thus half a glass of Mountain Dew ended up pouring into said chxalf, which had to be sent to the back and was dropped unceremoniously onto the "dead food" tray.

Well, it wasn't long before one of the other servers eyed the green and white and off-white combination, assessed the day and then challenged the offending server to eat the combination, certain that it would lead to much hilarity.

Instead, for the rest of the summer, a clique of servers would order Chicken Alfredo for their '50% employee meal' when pulling a double and promptly turn around and dixie-cone Moutain Dew into it, claiming that "it was a wonderful combination that tastes soo good".

Lawns are a colossal waste of time and energy.

I think I'm going to start moving away from the weed mixture I have into a bunch of rock formations.

Might as well take the concept further and put a go-kart track in. laugh

(Which is to say, I agree. Lawns suck.)

I've been thinking a lot about this lately. What kids of lowish plants use a metric ton of co2? I'd replace my lawn with them and then when questioned by the neighborhood say "this is for the environment".

I may still lose that argument, but at least I'd be a lot harder for the neighborhood.

A simple burger properly cooked is far better that a gourmet hipster flavor of the month burger that’s been burned to death.

 

We had a rather heated discussion yesterday and somehow no one agreed with me. I’m not a chef, don’t pretend to be one, but cooking is one of the few things I still get to do that I enjoy. That said when I have a large group over I get plain, thick 80-20 burgers from the butcher and cook them to medium rare or medium.  No matter how many I make they disappear.  People were excited that my cousin was making bison Gorgonzola burgers with avocado instead of the boring plain ones most people (me) make.  He pulled these poor burgers out of the box, tossed them over a ridiculously high flame and incinerated them to nothing. People politely took one, had a couple bites, then tossed them.

Bison is an extremely tough meat to get right. The fat content doesn't lend itself well to a E36 M3ty cook.

I like to cut it with veal when I'm making burgers, then cook them over indirect heat. Takes a good while, but delicious.

Wrong. It may be bad, but not as bad as this processed bubblegum bullE36 M3 that played on every radio station ten times a day for a year and a half. 
 

I'm disgusted with myself for even remembering the name of this E36 M3.  I do not have the words to describe the feeling this song gives me. Contempt is close. Terrible, repetitive, atonal, cliched, grating, meaningless...bullE36 M3.

After you've done even the simplest of aerobatics, straight and level flying is boring. Change my mind.

True story.  Years ago, Mrs. Kazoo and I took a "red rock" tour in Sedona, AZ on this plane:

On the way back to the airport, the pilot/tour guide said, "OK, we're gonna take a lazy left hand turn here and head back to the airport."  He then did a diving left turn that dumped several thousand feet of altitude and had at least a couple G pullout at the bottom.  I thought it was better than any rollercoaster ever.

 

Mrs. Kazoo was NOT amused.  The tour was video recorded, and I always tell people, "You can see the exact moment (Mrs. Kazoo) stops having fun."
