Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest

I laughed out loud over the Malcolm flirting section.

My favorite part of this episode is the little concert, and honestly that's about it. At least it generated some nice gaffes for the blooper reel.

Re: Randomness

Have to admit that while I'll nostalgically order grits down there, I never both with them up here. We listed the house today. I'm exhausted from getting it ready (not that I'm completely done). I just have to finish finding all the paperwork the agent needs. Thank God I switched back from online re...

Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest

Yep, that was just a howler of an episode in so many ways.

Best part for me was Trip and T'Pol appearing to do some (more) bonding as they coped with Archer's bullheaded stupidity.

Re: Randomness

People used to be able to do amazing work on moth-eaten wool. I bought a couple of wool skirts in a thrift shop in NH once that were busy plaid patterns and only after I'd worn them for awhile did I realize someone had carefully rewoven holes in each of them to match the pattern. I might still have ...

Re: Putaro's Enterprise Rewatch Reviews & Snarkfest

:) I was just wondering if re-watching the series would give me the impetus I need to start with the free weights again. Those two things are kind of linked for me. Also, while cleaning out I decided I definitely wasn't ready to ditch the Enterprise DVDs yet. (Also, I'm kind of hopeful it would give...

Re: Good Morning

Except that it's in the form of little, um, grits.

I'll never forget the awful father in The Secret Life of Bees who would punish his daughter by making her kneel in raw grits.

Happy belated birthday, Panyasan!

47 is a good year indeed! No serious wrinkles, but old enough to know your own mind. :)

Re: Good Morning

Here's a link with grits info, pictures, and cooking directions. Also, it's called "serendipitous grits" and what could be better than that?

Re: Good Morning

Similar, but polenta is like buying already-cooked grits that have congealed into a mass that you then slice and cook. (Hmm, that sounds good. I must be hungry!) I'm thinking polenta starts with a much finer grain, too, more like cornmeal than grits. I might be wrong, though. Maize just isn't a very...

Re: Shameless Self Promotion (but for a good cause)

Thanks, Frances. That review is pages back at this point, so it's not affecting sales any more, but thank you for responding with a helpful comment like that. I actually had a great month last month (sold over 500 units), but now that my promotion is over it's dropping into obscurity again. Can't re...

Re: Good Morning

Is that Italy's version of McDonalds? Definitely a step up.

In England, I suppose you might find grits marketed as ground maize or something in health food shops.

Re: Good Morning

Grits are to corn what porridge is to oats. Southerners eat them with butter and salt (and sometimes cheese and shrimp...). Yankees get confused and put maple syrup on them. Ick. It's like the way you Brits [at least used to] put sugar on popcorn. Here it's primarily butter and salt.
