Not yet. That's why they add coconut milk or something creamy, to temper the two. What Noble Dust and I were talking about is a dish without a mellowing agent. — L'éléphant

Point taken.

Cumin and cardamom together in a creamy sauce :yum:
Cumin and cardamom together not in a creamy sauce :vomit:

I remain sceptical.

Actually I’ve changed my mind and I’m not sceptical any more, because I remembered hearing that what makes Indian food so delicious is the combination of many things that clash with each other.

Nuanced and layered you are, like an onion.

There's an Indian restaurant I go to where the cook has been separated from his wife in Nepal for about a year. He was going back for a visit and we told him to bring her back to the US. He had a weird smile on his face, like, "You've got to be kidding."

I think his wife has probably been transformed into a tree due to an unfortunate conflict with a Hindu deity who wanted to make love to her, but she was trying to stay faithful to her husband who had been gone for a year. That would explain that weird smile.

I made roasted pepper and goat cheese sandwiches with fig jam (my addition) along with Italian wedding soup and Mediterranean salad. Not pictured is the chocolate dipped biscotti. All was homemade from scratch (even the sandwich bread).

The meatballs in the soup were sausage and beef with fresh parsley and grated parmesan. It was not, as Uncle Pete says, just an ordinary old meatball.

I got started at about 8:30 am and we ate at 12:30 pm. My commitment to food knows no bounds.

What makes you like lndian food is that you're British. It's a thing with you guys

This British woman told me a story about how when she was a girl, her mother would buy herself Indian food and bring it home and not let her eat any, and she looked at me like I should recognize how abusive that was.

He's also odorous and makes me cry.

Yeah, what in the world is going on with that bread. It looks like dried plaster.

Also Thai curry. — L'éléphant

I'm a big fan as well. I've never had Fiji curry. :chin: What's going on there?

It's dried plaster, but the wall tastes delicious, so I might have mixed that up. Happens

Sometimes when I get hungry I pull up the carpeting and munch. Or rather, I used to until my roommates kicked me out in horror.

I pull up the carpeting and munch. — Noble Dust

That's what @Hanover said.

Yowza.

I pulled up the carpet in my room and there was an old shriveled sausage under in there, and I was like, what a weird turn of reverse double extendre right here in my living room.

I jammed the sausage in a bun and had it for dinner.

Speaking of innuendos, I'm listening to this album:



And can't figure out if "You Can Fly On My Aeroplane" is supposed to be a double entendre. More importantly, I like the idea of someone saying something that sounds like it's supposed to a double entendre, but no one can figure out how. Surely that's been done on a sitcom before.

Just say whatever it is in quotes to leave them guessing what you mean.

See what I'm "saying"?

I can see it all the way from over here, if you know what I mean...

In a different episode, Homer asks Apu for one of the perpetually turning hot dogs. Apu discourages the purchase... "Those are just there for decorative purposes, Mr. Simpson. They were there when I bought the store."

I limit my hot dog consumption to maybe 1 or 2 a year. Safer.

Can someone please explain what John Lennon means by no possessions

This is one of Jimmy Kimmel's bits:

Always figured it was a 1960's utopian position, based on some purported tribal value systems, where all things (objects, resources and land) are held collectively.

The recipes I've seen have cumin and coriander more often than cardamon. I'd be loath to put Cardamon in a korma, preferring to throw a few whole pods in the rice.

What’s a missed ache but a sentiment of long forgotten joy

Jimmy Kimmel gives me the jiminy creeps. I guess it’s a clever segment. I like my bit idea better. I’ll workshop it.

He’s saying ownership isn’t exactly “private”, if you know what I mean.

Saying something that sounds like a double entendre but isn’t is harder than you think. Try it out, @Hanover.

i was petting my kitty cat and she started drooling, so I stroked harder, thinking that might bring things to a head, but it just got messier.

Eventually she had an orgasm and she put her clothes back on and I could go back to watching Seinfeld.

You're right! The double entendre thing is hard. I felt like I was going good at first, but something went awry somewhere I can't put my finger on. My finger can't find the right spot. You'd have thought I'd have found that spot by now. But still fumbling after all these years. All thumbs.

How about this.

More mellow spice mixture.

Interesting. Recipes look rather Indian, but there doesn't seem to be a consensus. Although that's just the interwebs telling me that.

Yes, I've seen "The Office" before, Clarky. If you know what I mean.
