Guess who is going to post next.

omg. I had a chunk crab appetizer and a 9 oz fillet (medium) (yes, I opted out of the 14 oz. kinda scary). also sauteed wild mushrooms and green beans. yum! oh. and 3 glasses of sauv.blanc. hurrah. my firm paid dearly for my lovely dinner.

right, carny?

I'm jealous.
I had a meatball sub from CitySub and a beer.
Then I painted the trim on the bathroom door. Yeah fun

Right Biggie G?

Not Biggie G.
But we finally got to try Chavella's last night. Very delicious, especially the tortilla soup. I wish I had some more of that soup right now.

Right, BG?

NOPE!
Pitu?

ooooo a surprise on the thread!
come again, Jamzer?

No playing catch with just two people! Tell'em, Em!

You're right , Whyfi.

Damn ball hoggers!!!!!!

Shishkab , catch!

Yoink! got it -- you there, mamacita?

Here! Here!

Ok now go to the PS board, hook a girl up with some XP posting and answer my DAMN question.
I'm freeking out here, best friends coming, need to make them uber happy...

Pitu? You're a chowhound

Not Pitu , she is out , hopefully not stuck in the rain!

I just heard thunder.

I'm stuck inside , and I need to get to Rite Aid!! It's raining and too windy for that long walk up to 7th Ave.

I got a bad itch on my arms and a little on my neck and ears lobes!!

I don't have any allergies , and this has never happened to me before without poison ivy being involved.I think it's from anxiety , I'm usually calm but DAMN , some bitch pissed me off on Saturday and well , I came home with a terrible itching sensation on my arms. I thought it would go away on it's own , but nope.:(

Anyone know of any homemade remedy till I get to Rite Aid? I'm dying man , and I only slept 4 hours because of it.:shock:

Mama.....here are websites to two places in Manhattan , your peeps might enjoy.

Shishkab , help me please.

Oh sweetie, do you have oatmeal at home???
If so, heat a little up w/ water, let it cool so that it's not hot and apply.
Ideally, let the oatmeal chill so that it's soothing.
Otherwise you'll need some benedryl (sp?) but that stuff will make you sleep. (Maybe a good thing, just saying

what happened on sat. that made you fret?

hey Em sorry i didn't reply sooner, i was at work. you still itchy, girl?

Done.

oh sweetheart, i am very very sorry. it was totally inappropriate, and i know you must feel violated. i am not sure what kind of advice i give you re: the tape, but i hope it is resolved soon. i'm gonna send you a PM re: itching.

carnivore next.

Aw babe, that family is fucked up. Count your blessings that now you can write them off FOREVER! That gets me angry. Seriously, you don't want any of that "friend" and especially the creepy guy.

PS .. a bath really helps me when I'm stressed. Also a massage, get that hubby to help you out.

Urg, right Alfy?

Nope.

Em, go over to her place and bring a healthy sized baggie of iron filings. When you have a moment alone (if she gets a drink or goes to the bathroom or something), dump the shit into the vent-holes of her VCR. I guarantee that at the very least, she will never watch your tape again on that machine.

Alternate plan (if you can get access to the tape): BIG MAGNET.

Otherwise, get this book. It is my bible. :twisted:

Whaddya say, Em?

Ahhhhhh , I can't go to her home , I swore I'd never enter it again.

Interesting book there Carnivore , lol , I don't want revenge.

She knows I forgive people quickly , and thinks that I will by the time she returns.....but I feel a burning in my heart when I start to think about what happened....so I know I won't.

I think its best to stay away from a person like that.

I hate even reading the post I wrote.

I think I'm gonna delete it now , I don't wanna see it anymore.

Pitu , next.

buenos dias!
Em, I won't ask what happened, and I *was* caught in the rain, repeatedly. Hope you got the oatmeal.

Mamcita, I just posted on your food freaking -- hope it helps. Got any more specific questions, just ask. Momofuko Ssam is open for lunch btw.

WhyFi, why would people from LA want schmaltz in maple syrup bottles on the table?
(WhyFi next)

Because it's GOOD!!! :twisted: Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to have it at every meal, but once a year is a not-quite-grossly (for me & many others, it seems) decadent treat!

BG, you down with the occasional chicken fat?!

Hmmm bottled chcken fat eh? Haven't gone down that road yet but I'd probably check it out. Maybe.

Carnivore?

I ate at Tacos Nuevo Mexico on 5th last night.
Had a huarache with carnitas and M got one with Pastor.
Pretty good, but not great. They're our usual place to get mex without going too far. They had tamales, which I missed on the menu, but I saw one guy eating. Must return soon.

Right, Notorious BIG?

Biggie don't know, but their tamales suck, Mami - drrrrrryyyyyyyyy, with a slice of carrot and potato inside. Blech! Go to the shack by the F train - 4th Ave (10/11th St)

I'm down with the schmaltz, just not spending $100/person for it. For that you should get duck schmaltz!
doctorj, is there a special Yiddish word for the rendered fat of the duck that brightens up the lowliest potato?

Thanks for the heads up on the tamal Pitu. There's nothing I hate more than a Drrrrrrrryyyyy tamale. I've had the ones on 4th. Tried the mole and the verde. Mole was ok, kinda sweet. The verde was IMHO kinda dull.
Both had a type of masa I'm not used to. I'd still go back though, something about that little shack makes me smile.

Dr. J, what about the duck fat??

Nope , Dr. J is at the park playing frisbee right now. :-$

Stay away from anything that ends with "fat" , or "lard".

What do ya think of my new avatar , Whyfi?

Not WF.

I think I liked the old one better. It was more unique.

What do you think, Mama?

not mama, but i agree.

em's old avatar was... well... Em!

did you get tired of it, em?

Naw , not tired....I just wanted to see my future baby daddy shaking his sweet ass.....just for a little bit you guys.

I was just out by Prospect Park....I heard marching band type drumming coming from in there.....was there some kind of event today?

Or , am I going nuts? :shock:

Pitu , that's your hood, so what's going down?

It's probably the HS marching band. You heard it on the Parkside/Ocean Ave side of the park, correct? They practice there quite often. Dionne Warwick and Linda Georgian are telling me Mamacita is posting next.

Nope , Mamacita is knocked the f*** out!

I heard it while I was walking up Prospect Park West , heading towards 5th Street. It was a little past 8:30pm and already dusk , they got those kids out late in the evening practicing, damn slave drivers.

I was messing with one of my pics on paintshop pro , and it came out cool , but it says it's too big...how small am I supposed to make it....I cropped it small small , but it still won't work.

Do you know how to fix it , Carnivore?

Edit** I figured it out , but I'll try to make it a lil' bigger.

Edit** Okay , I'm done.....yeah , I looooove blue.

Carnivore still next!

Nope. I have insomnia. Seeing how you're up I will guess you novEMber. Nice blue.
