  1. Sounds like you need to get:
  2. My wife is HORRIBLE at cleaning when she cooks. I can cook an entire gourmet meal and leave the kitchen cleaner than when I started. She cooks and it looks like a freaking bomb went off
  3. Especially when you first start learning. You're more likely to f-up and/or make a mess Once you get good, by all means you can work on efficiency/speed but it shouldn't be the goal. One piece of advice I'll give for that though is to largely get everything cut, prepared and measured before you actually start cooking a thing. Veg cut, spices/liquid etc out, any meat prepared, water near boiling if making pasta etc. And CLEAN AS YOU GO.
  4. Cooking is easy (and fun!), you just need the courage to experiment and like most anything...practice, practice, practice. Start slow, just google some recipes and follow them. Once you start to feel more comfortable with techniques, what flavours compliment each other etc you can start to experiment with your own tweaks to recipes. Then you can start to create your own.
  5. At Choices, not sure about anywhere else. I think they're only available for a limited time though.
  6. Been a while since I've had those....hard to say. I'm thinking they're maybe a touch warmer but the flavour and quality are WAY better IMO.
  7. I confess I'm addicted to these...freaking delicious and some good sinus clearing heat to them!
  8. Covered with whip cream and drizzled with chocolate sauce?
  9. Wife and I just binge watched seasons 1-5 last starting summer so you're not all that late
  10. I've been re-watching Season 5 and stockpiling season 6 episodes to binge on. It's been SOOOO hard to stay out of the GOT thread! Can't wait
  11. TS is like the strange little bro I never had
  12. Ditto. Watched Under the skin last night...wow It's so different from most modern movies I don't even know how to rate it or even if I should. It's creepy. it's beautiful. It's stark yet the atmosphere is so thick at times it seems almost oppressive. It's completely original while at the same time reminding you of works of the 70's film making artists like Kubrick, Jodorosky etc. The score/sound effects are intense and constantly unnerving. I'm not entirely sure what I watched but I enjoyed the @#$% out of what it evoked and can't stop thinking of it. I'm intrigued to watch it again to see how many more details I can manage to absorb amongst the tidal waves of subtlety and commentary on our superficial tendencies. If you even sometimes enjoy film as an art, you owe it to yourself to watch it. If you live and die by the latest comic book adaptation....maybe not.
  13. You're probably more used to hearing 'dolt' JK
  14. Fair enough, it was more the petulant aspect that stuck out for me, not 'strength' necessarily... I just have trouble seeing those parents raising that.
  15. SW-Force Awakens 7/10 Hard to judge this one... It's definitely better than Ep I-III but they also didn't tread any terribly new ground either which was a bit disappointing. Though not surprising. I quite liked Rey, though I wasn't particularly fond of Ren who came off is a bit of a sniveling, petulant little @#$% (and given who his father is, doesn't seem to fit IMO but rather seemed more convenient to fit a narrative). I also quite liked the first ~half with the character development etc but then the finale seemed both a bit rushed and a smidge anti-climactic. All in all it was a good, fun watch and had a comfortable Star Wars 'feel' to it which was probably the smart way to go. It has it's hooks in me enough that I'm interested to see another. Hopefully the middle episode of this series is also as strong as the original.
  16. No theories...but if you ever need somewhere to crash...
  17. So not the formulaic garbage full of soulless pop music the trailer made it look like?
  18. Seriously? The trailer looked horrible.
  19. It's s lot warmer, earlier.
  20. Wouldn't be surprised with how warm it's been.

    40 points are hard to come by these days. But yes, show that he can have a future role on this team is the ideal situation. That should translate to 25+ points. If he even approaches 40+ I'll be pleasantly surprised.

    I think we'll be lucky if he can get us 20-30. Anything above that will be gravy. 40 is just setting yourself up for disappointment IMO.

    Yeah and briefly that was a good line. Except Raymond was more of a 20-30 point player who had a couple career years and Samuelsson was on the down slope of his. Hence why it didn't last.
