Someone is suggesting that what with the current price of eggs, folks should dye potatoes for Easter.

I'm interested in those fish sandwiches, but am also concerned about BK's finding them a little gross. I actually came "this" close to buying some Gorton's last week. But I also need to have me a McDonald's filet o' fish. People (including my own housemates) swear by them, and I'm not sure that I've ever had one! I'm also pretty sure I haven't had such a thing from any fast food chain, or of any store bought variety. So this hole in my life shall have to be filled -- and soon.

You've never had a McDonald's Filet-O-Fish?  How can that be?

Because, except for the few times I've tried a chicken sandwich there (with greatly mixed results), I'm such a lifelong hamburger and all-around meat eating guy that it simply doesn't occur to me to be at a place like McDonald's and bother with anything except the burgers. I'll have one this week, though, and I look forward to it, and to then doing the at-home thing.

Ahh...that makes sense.  Well, I hope you enjoy it!

I like the McDonald's FOF.

My experience with Gorton's was exactly like MR BK's......I don't think I ate more than two of the six that were in package.

I will say that I probably should have used my new Air Fryer and they might have been better!

I've liked the Gorton's by themselves on a plate just fine, and in fact have always wished there were more in the package or that they were bigger. I'm wondering if perhaps they get to be a little "much" for sandwiches, and especially with the cheese added.

This definitely calls for experimentation!

I think scientific theory demands bringing home a FOF, removing the fish from the sandwich, putting it on a plate next to a Gorton's, and finding out exactly what the difference is in the filet itself.

One could likewise compare the two tartar sauces.

That's tantamount to wasting a FOF, since one isn't likely to reconstruct the sandwich after all of that. But there are times when sacrifices must be made in the name of SCIENCE.

  Frontwards or backwards or extra large, I don't like it ;D

So...

You won't eat it in a box?
You won't eat it with a fox?

Maybe with a fox ;)

My peach almond tiramisu and my Black Forest tiramisu are wonderful. Love the one with fresh strawberries and a splash of orange liqueur.

That sounds very good, but again there is that ingredient called Mascarpone.

Just don't get them late at night when there's not a lot of business.  They may not be as fresh as they need to be. :P

That answers my question.

I still recall the shock that she lost a beauty contest, while on a family trip to San Diego when I was young, long before she was famous.  My father remembered her from the contest.

Mom’s caregiver yesterday was invited to join her for a VD dinner and happy hour. Story is the caregiver drank everything in sight, including other people’s drinks (hard liquor), and proceeded to complain about the service.

We worked the sneak preview at the Bruin Theater in Westwood for One Million Years B.C.  When the audience booed the movie Keith saw Rachel Welsh crying.  We felt bad for her.
