In a pinch, swedish whiskey + draft root beer does work.

*the more you knooow*

Swedish whiskey? I would like to know more, please.

Swedish whisky is a fairly recent thing. I knew of one Swedish whisky distiller, and a quick google search turned up a 2nd, more recent one. Mackmyra is the older and better known of the 2, having opened their first distillery in 2002. I haven't tried their whisky yet, but it's gotten got good reviews, with most reviewers comparing their products to a good single malt scotch whisky.

It's whiskey that's made in Sweden. 

No, seriously, from what I can tell, it's not substantially different from scotch, but made with local ingredients in Sweden. Haven't had a chance to try any yet, so not sure how the local ingredients affect the flavor.





Made some killer fish curry the other night. Used tuna steaks thinking tilapia would be too flimsy, but now I'm seeing the value in floppy fish filets. The steaks were so thick and dense that the curry really didn't infuse into the meat. On the other hand, it meant you actually tasted the tuna as a counterpoint to the masala.

Comparable to Scotch? Meh. I've never been a big fan of Scotch. I much prefer the Irish varieties.

I'll happily drink just about any style of whisky. But given the choice, I'll take a good bourbon or rye over scotch or irish.

Deep fried frogs legs were this month's new food of choice. I think they'd have been better grilled or steamed or something, but they weren't bad - just a little on the tough side. One food I don't enjoy looking at, either - the veins were black and obvious, so they resembled tangled hairs at first glance. Still, I was at a sushi buffet so I'm not going to be too picky.

Yeah, scotch is supposed to be the 'fancy' option or whatever, but I can't stand it.
Well I mean, I can stand it, and will drink it when offered(as I would most any booze), but it's pretty damn nasty.
Bourbon is nice, as is Southern Comfort even though it's not really whiskey. I don't think I've tried rye.
Fakeedit: damn, that stuff looks potent. I'll have to see if I can buy it around here... or if it's even legal, haha.

Since I’ve been trapped at home for a while, I’ve started going a little stir crazy. This manifests itself in a number of ways, but the biggest is procrastibaking; the upside is that I now have fresh baked scones, bread and homemade raspberry preserve!

Equally, however, I may rapidly descend into a huddled mess of baked goods and puns.


One might say… I am in the Dangerscone!

Just bought a thing of Chobani-brand Greek Yoghurt, with flakes of chocolate, almond, and coconut to put in. Deliciousness! I need more yoghurt in my life.

Sounds like you knead a new way to bring in some dough, or soon there'll be muffin left.

You jest, but this issue has actually put a $1000 hole in my finances due to lost wages :/

I'm pretty batter about it, to be honest, I donut know how much more I can take!

[GiglameshDespair]

A thousand dollars? That really takes the biscuit.
All I can say is that must really bite, dude.

[Osmosis Jones]

Mmm, but that's the way the cookie crumbles, I guess, so no use complaining about spilt milk.

[majikero]

You guys really batter up with the puns. You should stop before it gets stale.

[FallacyofUrist]

We need a pun battle thread.
Or a pun battle string cheese.

[Knit tie]

This isn't related to puns, sadly, but I am here today to bring you some pictures of our new tandoori oven in operation.

How to tandoori: an ilustrated guide.

Spoiler: First of all, you'll need to prepare whatever it is you are gonna be baking. (click to show/hide)

As empirical evidence has shown, lean beef is an awful choice.

Spoiler: Then you'll need your actual tandoori. (click to show/hide)

This one here is made in Russia. No, seriously.

Spoiler: Fill 2/3 of your tandoori with wood and light it on fire. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: At first, the fire will cover the inside of the oven with soot. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: But then the tandoori will get so hot that the soot will start to come off. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: When all the wood has burned to charcoal and all the soot has come off the walls, the oven is ready for cooking. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Now, you have to remove the coals if you don't want the food to come out smoky. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Then, put your food onto a grate that'll keep it hanging in the middle of the oven... (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: put in the grate... (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: and close the lid. (click to show/hide)

The food will be ready in about 15 minutes. Hopefully, it should come out better than the horrible unchewable leathery mess that our beef has turned into.
