I've tried slicing it when it was just Not Hot, but it's sooooo much easier if you just put it in the fridge overnight! It makes the sauce easy to skim, too, because the oil forms a puck on top!

Any temperature/time works well as long as it gets wiggly by the end!

The final image of Strange Jigsaws, showing a puzzle box on a wooden table. The box says "Strange Jigsaws" and has multicolored pieces drawn on with marker.

When they started making AI mushroom guides, I made sure to buy THE mushroom guide, which is so sickos.jpg that no computer program would ever invent it.
The cover of "All that the Rain Promises and More..." by David Arora. The cover features the author, dressed for a concert and holding his trumpet, grinning like an absolute gremlin and carrying an enormous trumpet-shaped mushroom

Transcription and notes in the alt text. Give your family a treat: some nice, buttery carbs they can eat when they don't feel like sweets. The flavor is gentle and warm, like the feeling of a warm house with your extended family in it.

Figured out a good alternative to labeling which baggie has less meat in it.
Some Ziplock bags of raw pork shoulder. One of the bags also has frozen shrimp in it.

Time to do some girl math (butter math) to see how much more butter we're going to need!
Some index cards. One says "Christmas 2024 notes" and there are four clustered with the names of cookies on them.

Hey what are the videogames regular people know? Bc my guitar teacher purports to teach "videogame music," but when I mentioned critically-acclaimed, Grammy-winning videogame Journey, he'd never heard of it before.
The Journey cover art. A small figure in a red robe and scarf stands in the foreground, between some sand dunes. In the midground, there's a taller dune, and in the far background, there's a mountain with a light at its peak. The word "JOURNEY" is centered in the picture in angular, white lettering.

Okay I knew about vegetable teapots, but I never expected a LOTUS teapot!!!

At first glance, I thought it was an unfinished sculpture of a pokemon lol
A still-green lotus seedpod with only a few seeds sticking out. There are lotus leaves in the background. A couple big piles of lotus tubers. They haven't had the mud washed off and they're still connected to each other in chains of two or three tubers.

We all remember the Christmas Abominations, right? I'll associate these with Melania Trump forever. I can only guess that it's a power play on the Christians who voted for her husband: she wants to know how awful of a Christmas display she can make before any evangelicals actually care.
A white hallway featuring huge bundles of white branches lit from below with cold-white light. There is a Christmas tree at the end of the hallway and warm-white pendant lights hanging from the ceiling every few yards. A hallway with windows along one side, which do impressively little to brighten up a white hallway with bright green carpet and variously sized, unadorned dark red "trees." The color of the "trees" suggests blood, and because they have no lights or decorations, they seem to soak up most of the light despite the huge windows. There's a large Christmas tree in the room at the end of the hall.

The sprinkles and eyeballs together are what make it good! I went on a special trip for eyes when this meme was new!
A chocolate cake with confetti sprinkles, jimmies, nonpareils, and eyeballs, that says in sloppy white text, "Ceaceless Watcher turn your gaze upon this wretched CAKE"

There has to be an easier way. There just has to. I don't need every song in its original key; I just need it to be playable by a human person.
Chords for "Share This Jam with Me" from Steven Universe, featuring not only a wide variety of chords but also some distinctly unusual ones

We only went to two houses together before James decided he was too tired, but we made a great pair!

It's a wingtip collar! Poirot wore them, so I've seen them a lot lol. The collar part is just a rectangle, straight up and down, and then just the top corners are folded aside to make room for your throat.
Hercule Poirot, portrayed by David Suchet, wearing a refreshing summer suit and straw hat. He is wearing a wingtip collar, having yelled at his friends the last time they suggested a folded collar.

Julia Child BROUGHT IN A PAINTING OF A ROCKFISH just in case you catch one and don't know how delicious it is!!! I feel the same way about rockfish, but I especially love that she gets unhinged at the most unexpected moments!

Oh, heck, I should give recs, right? The thicker the hair ties are, the longer they last; don't stop using them just bc the elastic slipped some; try to cycle them instead of wearing the same one(s) every day; and you can usually get a stack of them from, like, Goody or Scunci at the grocery store.

Also there's opera corn.
An ad for Opera Corn, a corn sculpture that plays opera music when you press a button. It is badly rotated because I've tried to rotate it in two separate apps now, so please just turn your phone.
