Please do.

Spare us all the fanboy blathering. :bleh:

hey what's wrong I'm not blattering about Ueto-kun. I'm just asking about the food. Doesn't mean I am not interested in food when there's no relation to Aya ... Actually it's exactly the contrary, I like food and I tend to learn everywhere I go, and the fact Aya too likes food is another reason why I like her that's all. Please spare us your sterile remarks. :shakehead:

Excuse me, but you have your own Aya thread to talk about her and everything she does, so save it for her thread.

You can talk about food here all you like, but don't try to turn this thread into another personal "I love Aya" thread.

If you can't stay on topic or don't like the rules of this forum, you can always go somewhere else.

huh ? hey I'm not off topic I'm asking about food :grumble: I'm not trying to turn this one into an Aya thread.
Okay Mr moderator, I'll ask about her food in the Ueto thread too.

Was it those really thin ones that you have to eat with knife/fork?

Ooooh Nooo! :shakehead: No pizza should ever be eaten with a knife and fork. :hehe:

Do you put chopped celery, sweet relish or chopped hard boiled egg in your tuna salad or are you a purist?

Celery, sweet relish (Heinz, no others need apply), onion, ground pepper, and a big slice of tomato... :)

It'd be even better if we had a toaster. :victory:

Pretty close to it.

Rye would work, too, but the caraway seeds are a nuisance... Invariably one or more get stuck between teeth... :bleh:

They sell seedless rye bread in most grocery stores. Well they do in NY. :victory:

So desu.

Wheat's fine.


Oh, after my niece's graduation Saturday, we went to an old Italian restaurant near Beverly Hills: Maggio's. Unfortunately, the lasagna I had was pretty disappointing: the lasagna noodles and ricotta in the inner layers was nonexistent... It was like eating meatloaf sandwiched between two lasagna noodles... :(

The calamari was very good, as was the garlic bread: very garlicky. :thumbsup:

my 'cooking for beginners' book arrived today. i've decided to teach myself to cook properly instead of eating the processed crap that i've done so for the last 23 yrs.
i'm gonna start with a boiled egg.... :hehe:

Better late than never, I suppose.

i'm gonna start with a boiled egg.... :hehe:

Hard-boiled, about 15 minutes, soft-boiled, about half the time...

How about boiling water first? :beaten: :hehe:

Congratulations kenjilina! Enjoy your cooking! :woot:

I give you a lot of credit for learning how to cook all on your own. :victory:

I probably need to take a refresher course myself. :sweat: :hehe:

If you don't want the egg shell to crack when hard boiing it don't take it directly from an ice cold frig and then bring it to a fast boil. You can always let it sit in the water in the pot awhile before bringing it to a boil.

Have fun with your cooking. :thumbsup:
