Alright, after all this talk of ketchup/catsup, I need to know:

What are the Top 5 Condiments you have to have in your kitchen?

@Mary625 @RickiTarr what no Miracle Whip?!?

@Mary625 @RickiTarr it was always so sweet to my palate, I would expect regular mayo (Best Foods/Hellmans) tang.

What is one decision you've made in your life, that you knew was the absolute right decision to make and why?

@RickiTarr to give up my office and career of 20 years (massage therapy) in 2020 to keep my family safe and virus free. I imagined going back to my office and building and realized the stress and risk were not worth it. I miss my clients and the work sometimes but don’t regret it for a moment.

What songs do you think are too good for their subject matter, like a song for an ad that's actually good, or a children's show theme song that slaps, ect?

@RickiTarr The Seagrams ad. It’s the dichotomy of the milquetoast product and the absolutely infectious funkiness of their performance was always confusing. But it’s such a jam and will get stuck in my head for days! https://youtu.be/3D4U3W2d0LA?si=IG3RyVY4X2_2msxt

NYT and Vox are calling critics of Israel “pro-Hamas” or a “radical fringe.” They’re writing articles about how nobody is mourning Israeli lives correctly, unself-aware that they haven’t mentioned the unimaginable death toll and suffering Israel chooses. They don’t mention the power imbalance or how Israel has funded Hamas. They discuss Jewish discrimination – not people being denied citizenship in an open air prison.

I feel like I am breaking with reality in a way I haven’t since Trump.

@RickiTarr I need to remember to take photos of my food for this thread! I made a nice tuna salad for lunch with some red bell pepper and avocado so it was more photogenic than usual - but I ate it already! Here's some sweets I made this week - "cake mix cookies" [vanilla cake mix made with less liquid to result in a cookie dough]. I stuffed some of them with a fig mixture - yum! I'm going to try snickerdoodle flavor next time.

I’m 34 and still working on my life and everyone keeps telling me over and over not to worry that I’m too old to make it happen. But I wasn’t? I’m not old? Do you guys think you’re “old” at 34? What the fuck???

@Tattooed_mummy @ryanhoulihan yup I’m working with this trajectory as well. Life is change, no matter your age!

A Hindsight Question!

What is something you loved or enjoyed when you were younger, that isn't so great now that you're older?

friscolala,
@friscolala@sfba.social avatar

@cynblogger @RickiTarr This is true for us as well. The restaurants I want to get food from have dwindled significantly (I am also a competent cook so that helps). Still not going inside tho!

friscolala,
@friscolala@sfba.social avatar

@RickiTarr @cynblogger A big part of it is the the time! If I’m already home, I’ll take the time to cook. And after finally investing in items like harissa and tamarind paste I am motivated to make my own versions of dishes that are satisfying.

OKAY, before we go full fall, an ice cream question!

I found this little gem in the ice cream section, so I'm wondering what's the weirdest ice cream flavor you've ever tried?

friscolala,
@friscolala@sfba.social avatar

@RickiTarr Humphry Slocombe’s flavors always surprise. They have had a special prosciutto ice cream (!!) - or their Jesus Juice (red wine and cola) or Hibiscus Beet sorbets. They also have a Pepper Mint which is black pepper and mint! They are famous for their Secret Breakfast, A vanilla with cornflakes and bourbon. https://humphryslocombe.com/pages/flavors

@RickiTarr Oh just remembered I tried Durian ice cream at Polly Ann. We have a lot of fun ice cream places here in SF that serve ‘unusual’ flavors. But I tend to be a very basic ice cream person- give me a bittersweet chocolate or marble fudge and I am a happy camper!
