My tasting spoons I never intended to have a gaggle of tasting spoons. They just sprouted into a collection over the years. I’m such a fan of “little.” Small bowls, small plates, small glasses. I like bites rather than gulps. Espresso in a demitasse cup rather than a mug of American. And that’s just where this started.
I had 2 demitasse spoon collections. These spoons were my go-to tools for tasting or stirring small amounts. In stores and food markets and flea markets I always get drawn into sets of small spoons. Those seafood forks or appetizer forks. Everything seems to sparkle more when smaller.
And sparkle cuter. Now in my cooking classes, the little spoons and forks are engaged throughout class to taste our concoctions. Students have been inspired to start their own collections. Of course over the years I’ve lost a few here and there so now my assortment is a ragtag mismatched bunch. Here are the last remnants from my first two demitasse spoon sets. My oldest demitasse spoons I think my mom had given them to me.
The one with the red color in the handle was part of a set where each spoon had a different dot of color. I love these little guys but now only have one. (Do they fall down the drain of the sink?) The longer one is my favorite for making a quick vinaigrette (drizzle a few rounds of olive oil in a small bowl, add some salt & pepper, a few tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice – or both – and about 2 tablespoons of grated parmigiano- whisk vigorously with a little spoon until combined). I think these colorful plastic spoons are meant for ice cream. Plastic ice cream spoons There was a set of six originally, but somehow three got spirited away — my favs are lost: the red, the yellow, the dark blue.
They’re from that fun store that used to be in Grand Central Station (can’t remember the name) with whisks that had doll heads and staplers shaped like crocodiles. When I last lived in NY I lived in Spuyten Duyvil, Bronx and took the commuter rail at Grand Central to get home. While waiting for my train, I usually browsed this store, or ate a slice of pizza from Two Boots (thin with a crunch of corn meal). These are plastic, too, and from Eataly in NYC. Spoons from Eatlaly There used to be six of them (where DO these spoons get lost to??). They’re so tiny but I find myself grabbing them first for tasting the tomato sauce or the crazy grits I make every Monday morning (crazy because they’re filled with an assortment of chopped leftovers) or stirring my caffe latte in the morning. My mom has a set of red ones.
She still has all six. When the spoons run out in class (because we taste, then throw the spoon in the sink) we move on to small forks. This is the only fork left from a set I bought at a flea market in Madrid, Spain. Fork from Madrid, Spain I spent a week in Madrid after doing a stint with an archaeological team in Burgos, Spain. We were digging up the stage of an ancient Roman theatre. In the Madrid flea market I bought a pretty belt that was several looped chains together (perfect for the belly dance classes I used to take), a set of these tiny forks, and a set of tiny spoons.
Only the fork remains. (I can’t seem to find the belt either.) I love these scalloped-bowled spoons from an antique store on Cape Cod.

When they had a falling out with The Escapist, Extra Credits did videos on a separate Youtube channel.and one of them was this piece of crap: In the first part of the episode, Daniel stated that 'Games are not addictive, they're a compulsion.' Then in the second part, James would go on for 20 minutes ranting about how gaming ruined a good part of his late teenage years as a high school student, and how he suffered from game addiction. Not only is this but any outside viewer would then see that video like an Alcoholics Anonymous confession if they were to see it.
As well, he had the balls in order to tell his viewers to bitch about their problems on the half-baked fan forum made by a 15 year old. Wait, removing the social stigma behind gaming?. terraxsandra: 's Birth By Sleep playthrough was pretty enjoyable for the most part.except for Terra's playthrough. They made a lame joke about Terra (Stinky hand). I kept watching it, because I didn't think it would drag on, but guess what.they spent most of Terra's playthrough just making that Stinky hand joke. I never finished the whole thing.
Shame, because that was the one I looked forward to the most.:, Episode 31, more accurately known as. The filler character is set up solely so he can deliver a to raw purists. This might not have been so bad if it wasn't so blatantly due to his of the character molding him into a.
Another minor character possession is a completely unnecessary and distracting reference, and no, crap does not make it any less stinky. Finally, the battle has not one, but two arbitrary, pointless, and irritating uses, with his shot at the Caramelldansen being both and (do you have to freaking spell out of the fact you hate it like we are flipping idiots?). At least there is no question where the show if the episode quality continues to stagnate.: Could be worse. Exhibit A: 'Penguin Ex Machina', showing First example of this is when Yami Yugi's opponent says 'It's over, Yugi. Your little Kuriboh was fun for awhile but now he's worn out his welcome!' (reflecting criticisms people have made of his abridging as of late), to which Yami Yugi replies 'This little Kuriboh has more power than all of 4Kids put together!' Then after the episode's ended, he has a scene with literall 'trolls' bitching about everything 'different' he's done as a towards people who've felt that the series has.
Maybe some complainers are immature douches but so far as I can see, the only one trolling anyone here is you,.: Episode 7 of. The episode pretty much opens with Seriously, LK? You're resorting to fart jokes? And don't even say that this was some piss-poor attempt to take a dig at. Their humor wasn't that low brow.
And yet has the gall to take another unneeded at Naruto Abridged that would probably be dated by the end of the month.: @: I personally saw the fart jokes as highlighting Naruto's stupidity, not taking a jab at the original Naruto Abridged. But on to my complaint.
It's not a video related to the abridged series itself, but it is one LK recently made public again. The 'If Anime Were Honest- Evangelion' video seems a bit. Meaner than his other playful jab vids.
He's made them against other series and people before, but this one just seemed very brutal. The other ones were at least a little funny and in good spirit, but this video was devoid of any 'haha, it's a joke!' It's probably the first posting of his that I genuinely do not like at all. I know LK is a fan of the series and he's just doing what he usually does, but why so hateful? That's just not entertaining and it rubbed me the wrong way.: An Ishtar Family Christmas was a pretty good special, but one scene really made me cringe.
It was when the Three Wise Men, (Yami, Jaden, and Jack Atlas) were giving gifts to Baby Jesus. Yami's gift was a DVD called 'The Best of ' with a text at the bottom of the screen reading '.' I know Little Kuriboh has stated countless times that he doesn't hate Masako or Vegeta, but that seemed really mean-spirited. I've never minded that jabs at before, but ever since that one, I'd cringe at the next jab. Thank god LK deleted Naruto The Abridged Movie in 5 seconds.: While none of the above bothered me in the Abridged version of the Tenth Anniversary movie (Nov 2011) there was a throwaway joke Yugi makes. He hits his head and in pain he says 'my head hasn't hurt this much since watching the Naruto Abridged movie'. There's a limit to these jokes.
It isn't funny anymore. The 'joke' got old very quickly.
The way it was done was like watching a movie. It was thrown in for absolutely no reason and provided no laughs. The movie was of a lower standard compared to his other works but that one line was scrapped from the bottom of the barrel.: Now, this troper enjoys Fioriparty74's videos, but The True Death of Hinata was just terrible. Now, before you stamp this as a rant, hear me out.
Basically, the video spoofed chapter 437 of the Naruto manga. Training software for mac. But what really sucked was that not only did it call Hinata 'an overrated pair of boobs,' it also went on to insult Hinata and NaruHina fans. A character you don't like is one thing, but to insult the people who actually do like the character is just mean.
This video was pretty much a big reminder why I. Fuck you too Fioriparty.: Achievement Hunter has one in their video for the 'Pay Your Respects' achievement in. The achievement is - literally - paying your respects at the site where Bruce's parents were killed.
Being Rooster Teeth, they try to lighten the situation with humor - claiming the chalk outlines make it look like Martha Wayne was giving a blowjob to Thomas when they died - but instead of, it only.: Onision made fun of a 13-year-old girl in one of his videos because she got banned from his forums. And Onision was being a dick about it. He's made videos about standing up for bullies too, so, yeah. He deleted the video from the account it was uploaded on.: The dethroner of was their video on.
They were pretty much telling their viewers not to see this movie because of it's title. That is a very shallow reason not to see a movie.: I expect three things from: cooking with Jack Daniels, eating ludicrously large meals, and Well, it's quite clear that these guys about their show with the episode The crew truly showed arrogance with their growingly excessive advertisements and their put downs towards their own fans. Oh, and it didn't feature any sort of cooking or even any use of bacon. It ain't even about the bacon at this point'!?

No, it ain't even about on at this point.: anachronauts arc 3, fs03. The female elf Nel was rescued by and fell in love with space-girl Una,.

Okay, plenty of healthy relationships have grown out of a. She doesn't tell her. Okay, that's reasonable. Nel never gets any significant characterization, background, or personality traits other than being in love with Una. Nel is tempted by a genie to kill one of the other Anachronauts in order to have Una. She refuses, saying that she'd rather have Una naturally. And then in fs03, Una gets her hands on the sense-recording earrings Nel has been wearing since the beginning of the arc, and is able to effectively be Nel as she talked to the Genie, including her declaration of love.
She re-evaluates her interactions with Nel, and then instantly realizes she loves her. Please note that Una has been exclusively heterosexual up to this point, and realizing she likes girls in general and loves Nel in particular is portrayed as. Oh, and the author pretty clearly, as it popped up in his earlier, and in an aside in arc 2. Their friendship is written as exactly that; a friendship, with no romantic or sexual tension. Compared to the other romances in the series, which are written much more organically, it seems more like a than an actual romance.
Nel and Una are given some 'private time' at the end of that chapter, which would be ideal for showing their conversation before the inevitable sex and underlining the fact that they actually do have feelings for each other, except we never get to see it. Did I mention that t.
