Ran into this fact by accident researching something else, figured SA people would appreciate
The most pinned Pinterest image is cheesy bread:
 
@DVK-in-exile That does look pretty good. Is there a recipe?
 
@Jolenealaska Looks like this is the original pin: pinterest.com/pin/238550111481940397
Oh I figured out how to use pinterest... actual link: laurenslatest.com/hasselback-garlic-cheesy-bread
 
2:51 AM
@Jolenealaska It violates not one but TWO diets at once. Low carb and low cholesterol. Therefore, it must be double-good :)
 
@DVK-in-exile Absolutely!
 
@Jolenealaska Sorry, the site I got it from just linked the image but not the pin itself. And I'm not a pinterest user
 
Recipe looks as good as the picture.
 
Question: is asking about a possibly-fallacious impression around taste ontopic? (specifically: it is my impression that kosher veal steak is significantly saltier than kosher beef steak, both cooked without extra salt. Is that accurate and if so, why? Both sourced from same place so presumably would have similar amounts of sold from kosher process)
 
hmmm
I think that question would be OK.
Do you know if the kashering is done in-house where you buy the meat?
 
3:02 AM
@Jolenealaska No, it's a supermarket. But as far as I'm aware they source the meat from the same place.
 
My impression is that your answer is likely to be there. Either the two meats are kashered at different locales or they use a different technique.
Where are you (country or state)?
 
@Jolenealaska NY, but the place I buy is in NJ
Here goes nothing: cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/70948/… Hopefully it's a good site fit, it does feel a bit iffy as SE question.
 
I think it will fly here, but be prepared for questions about the possibility that the sources are actually different.
 
The site fit is fine, the potentially iffy part that Jolene's pointing out is just the fact that it might be a pretty localized question.

@ElendilTheTall Ping me if you come in but don't see me!
Hey @Jefromi, did you just ping me somewhere?
I've gotten lots of pings tonight that don't make sense.
 
Nope, haven't sent a chat message since the one above, a few hours ago.
 
Weird. I turned my audible notifications on 'cause I had just asked Tall to ping me. Then I got 5 or so in as many minutes. But nothing in any chat room I am in.
 
Don't see anything listed on your replies recently either: chat.stackexchange.com/users/…
 
My volume is way up because I'm watching Game of Thrones... Makes me jump every time.
Maybe it belatedly pinged me because I had notifications off.

ugh, the glass one got HNQ. I hope I don't get too many more comments.
 
What's with the comment on the question, anyway?
Um... isn't glass a type of ceramic anyway?
Also, my flag on that chocolate chip cookie question has nothing to do with the discussion under it. I posted the comments and then I realize that the answer doesn't really address the "how can I fix this" at all... so I flagged.
 
@Catija Just someone being clever about IKEA carelessly applying their furniture warning to everything on their site.
I noticed it too when I was checking whether the OP had already missed a warning about stove top use.
 
I don't think we've ever secured anything from IKEA to a wall...
 
It's mostly for bookshelves and dressers I think.
 
Yeah. We have both and neither are attached to the wall... I always make sure to fill the bookcase from the bottom, though, and I think it's tilted slightly backwards because the front feet are sitting on a rug.
 
3:05 PM
also heavy books to the bottom.
I had to restack our books and it helps ;p
 
I can't put the heavy ones on the bottom because I'm too OCD to organize them in any way other than alphabetical by author.
... well, the nonfiction is by subject and then by author within the subject...
... I used to work in a book store... so... it's habit.
 
lol
ours are by who owns em ._.
 
Yeah, my husband and I have separate book cases for the most part... but where we have overlapping authors, they all go in one place.

HA HA. @rumtscho Just saw this:
Haha, clickbait - I fully expected that to be about Gordon Ramsay hitting someone on his cook show. — rumtscho Jun 23 at 8:58
 
Dang, I clicked it, too ^_^
 
I should probably add a GoT spoiler warning :P
Am I missing some important difference between and ?
 
For rumi and me, "Ramsay" is the pan-wielding Scot, not the fictional sociopathic bastard.
 
Yeah, we could probably add "Bolton" to that to make it more clear... but some people might consider that a spoiler, too.
Made more doughnuts:
 
Looks delicious!
Confession:
I baked four dozen mini muffins yesterday, from a boxed mix.
 
6:23 PM
:O
How could you! :P
 
I had literally no time and they were for a very non-gourmet crowd. Minors took them to a neighbourhood bbq.
 
Ah. Hey, at least it's still homebaked... better than buying something at the store instead. I don't think I could ever do that. People are so used to me bringing homemade stuff.
 
The only thing I might buy is puff pastry danishes - nothing I typically bring.
 
Yeah, They have little bite-sized ones they sell in the grocery stores... I'll buy those... and regular doughnuts... I don't fry things.
 
6:39 PM
Yeah, frying tends to cling to everything, no matter how many windows one opens.
 
6:50 PM
Is there a verb for "being a soccer mom"?
 
Don't think so :D
 
Good! (I think.)
We drove the youngsters to the regional semi-finals today. 70 miles one way. <sigh>
 
Ooof... that's a lot of driving... but, hey, they must be pretty good if they're in a competition!
 
Most games are pretty near, but as it's a more rare sport, it's kind of a side effect.
And for son it's the last season in this age bracket, in fall he'll move up.
 
7:17 PM
Soccer is a rare sport... in Europe? I thought it was the EU pass time...
 
Not soccer. Every village has a soccer team :) Minor one plays fistball.
 
Oh, You were asking about being a soccer mom, so I assumed the sport matched :D I've never heard of fistball.
 
Hardly anyone ever has.
 
So, looks like volleyball with a huge court?
But the ball can hit the floor... huh.
 
Harder ball and skightly different technic. And yes, the ball can (should) hit the floor once.
 
7:26 PM
Interesting.
 
If you watch adults, there are ultra-fast hits and comparatively slow passes.
But it's definetively not a sport to get rich and famous ^_^
Does anyone have a few creative ideas what I could do with three packs of puff pastry?
(Apart from the "sun" we've seen here in a few versions.)
 
7:42 PM
I have an extremely creative idea.
A quiche OMG OMG.
 
<grin>
How was the wedding?
 
Or a custard tart.
First bake the puff pastry.
Then make custard and put it on the pastry.
Then add raspberries.
It was very nice.
Intimate and perfect.
 
Nice!
 
@Stephie I can show you a picture if you promise not to share it!
 
I'd never share anything w/o permission.
So, yes, I promise.
 
Wow, fancy!
 
It was in the old town hall in the Hague.
What do you call a morning coat in German?
 
Frack. (I was just thinking about the English term...)
 
Ah, I see.
I believe a frock is slightly different.
In English, I mean.
Even though the words are no doubt related.
 
Ah, sorry. "Cut".
 
8:09 PM
You call it a Cut in German?
 
Frack is with the tails.
Weirdly enough, yes.
Or "Cutaway". But with a capital 'C'.
 
Interesting.
We call it jacquet in Dutch.
Which I think used to be non-U, but now everyone says it.
A frock coat is a man's coat characterised by a knee-length skirt (often cut just above the knee) all around the base, popular during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. The double-breasted style is sometimes called a Prince Albert (after the consort to Queen Victoria). The frock coat is a fitted, long-sleeved coat with a centre vent at the back, and some features unusual in post-Victorian dress. These include the reverse collar and lapels, where the outer edge of the lapel is cut from a separate piece of cloth from the main body, and also a high degree of waist suppression, where the coat...
Frock coats have not been used for a long time now.
 
I guess it was never so "common" to get an own name. A "Jacket" is what you wear in a business context or so.
 
Wiki says frock coat is Gehrock in German.
@Stephie Hmm isn't that a jacket?
We pronounce jacquet as in French.
And jacket as in English.
 
Fixed the typo.
 
8:17 PM
> Im Gegensatz zum Cutaway, der sich seit einigen Jahren wieder steigender Beliebtheit erfreut, gilt der Stresemann heute als fast ausgestorben.
Interesting.
 
@Cerberus re. the first picture: the gentleman in the chair and the boy in shorts looks like a painting. "Lord So-and-so at home"
 
Haha.
That is the father of the bride and her nephew.
He is a burger, like most people in the room.
 
8:33 PM
<yaaaaaaaawn>
Sorry, have to go. Alarm is set to 5:45
Sleep well!
 
@Stephie So early!
Sleep well!
