Umm, yes, Zoid, handle it you...did. Quite...well?

Sorry, I just had to scrape the crust out from behind my ear.

During the summer months, she likes to wear her hair a bit lighter. This past Summer (or at least the last part of it), she said her color was "Creme Brulée". I think 'creme brulée' is a kind of food, perhaps a type of cheese; so, that would be good for you. Either that, or it's like a raspberry custard. So it's either an orangish-yellow, or it's purplish-red with pie crusts on the sides.

Still, "Creme Brulée" sounds very expensive, so it must be very good. I saw pictures of her hair, but it looked red to me, which she said it definitely was not. She said it was 'a medium blonde with really brassy overtones' or something like that, to which I replied, "I think it looks perfectly natural..."





EDITORIAL NOTE: Creme Brulee is a very expensive food. For you non-cooks out there, Creme Brulee is a custard with a carmelized sugar glaze. Proper manufacture of Creme Brulee requires ramekins and a creme brulee torch, for which Williams and Sonoma will gleefully have their way with your bank account. You could make it with small ceramic bowls intended for Mise en Place and a Bernz-O-Matic propane torch but it lacks sadly in style.

Hardware; who actually can make Creme Brulee and other stuff seen on Good Eats.

Ramekins? As in the kind used to make Flans?!

There's a signpost up ahead. Next stop, the Mal-Licious Zone.


Eerily,

P.S.
Eerie Part Deux:
I'm watching DiscSci just now (circa 9:20 PM CST), and they're interviewing this guy about the progress of the Cassini Saturn mission, specifically, the successful landing of the Huygens probe on Titan. He says the surface of Titan is covered in snow with a light crust on top. Comparable to Creme Brulée, he said. I sh*t you not. I'm going to hide under my bed, now.

Ah, young Jedi, you overreach yourself. For I too own a creme brulee torch and a bernz-o-matic torch! I also have come to possess ramekins and mise en place dishes! So there, HAHA!

Apparently, I have not been properly policing this thread! People are claiming food making abilities and NOT OFFERING ME ANY SAMPLES.

We truly have turned off the main road into the Twilight Zone. Let's get back on track here, people!

I like the Kitchen Aid mostly because it is built like a tank and I got one for ~$75 off E-bay, shipping included. It's ugly avocado green, but hey, it works, therefore it is beautiful.

Plus, for Xmas my girlfriend bought me the grinder attachment. I just bought myself the sausage stuffer and will be trying my hand at breakfast sausages and Maybe italitan sausages.

Malicious, you can maybe try some if you behave yourself and only hijack this thread.

HAHAHAHA!

Mal's thread got hijacked?! Preposterous!

BTW, 'Lish: They haven't hijacked your thread; they're still talking about your hair color from this Summer past. That's what you get for buying hair color with panache (which is fur-eign for pancakes, I think, and is a light golden brown hair color, with Mrs. Buttersworth on top.)...

Sheesh! You start out trying to flatter the pants off of a woman, next thing you know, there's a couple Cordons Bleu rattling pots and brandishing blowtorches. This is about as romantic as a Benihana...

Here, 'Lishus: How about a nice tumbler of Bushmill's 16-year old single malt, on the rocks, and I'll peel you some grapes as you recline by the fireside? I may not be able to cook, but I can serve.


Attentively,

zoid

The big one with the hanging bowl, or the small one with the tilting top?
