Stick A Fork In It
Today is yet another one of those food holidays I'm rejecting in favor of something yummier - and more humane. Suggestion - and no, Sadie's post didn't disgust me - cheesy pasta. Your nominations, below. See you Monday. [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
You can be certain of two things on a Friday evening: a National Food Holiday shoutout (Noodle Kugel) and an open thread. This post, of course, encompasses both. See you Monday (and thanks for the latke recipes!)Stick
National Cookie Day. Read that again: National. Cookie. Day. In honor: A photo of our favorite cookie-loving children's character, the better to inspire the posting of cookie pictures in the comments. (A request: Peanut Blossoms!) See you Monday. [The Nibble]A ForkYour Face In ItStick A Fork In It
Superfudge! Otherwise known as the title of a Judy Blume book or, the fancy version of a popular supermarket candy given its due thanks to National Peanut Butter Fudge Day. Dig in - see you Monday. [Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
November 13 is National Indian Pudding Day, called the nation's "ugliest, yet great tasting, bi-cultural culinary treat." John Adams liked it; but it apparently it's not Indian, it's British; Native Americans didn't have molasses. Oy. Happy Friday. [The Nibble, Slashfood]Stick A Fork In It
It's National Nachos Day. Fun fact: Nachos were invented in 1943 and there's an "original recipe" which includes real cheddar (screw canned crap) and jalapeños. I'm actually off to order some (with sour cream, natch); see you Monday! [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
It's National Candy Corn Day, the worst (in my estimation) of the Halloween treats. Faves: Sugar Daddies, Dum-Dums, Pixie Stix. Last costume worn: George Bush. (Fake pubes were involved.) Spill your fave sweets, costumes? See you Monday. [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Today: National Canning Day. Unrelated: those experiencing continued problems with the new site design email me directly with descriptions - and don't forget your computer type/OS/browser. I'm still putting a FAQ together and promise it will be ready on Monday.Stick A (Few Forks) In It
This is the usual time and place of the Friday open thread. But, considering we have the new (and always-open) groupthink page, is it "done" for good? Desired? Talk amongst yourselves, let us know your thoughts. Oh, and happy weekend.Stick A Fork In It
"Moldy Cheese Day"? Could there be three worse words strung together in a single sentence? Probably! (Suggestions, below, or, in this thread.) See y'all Monday! [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
National Fried Scallops Day. Open thread. Go for it. [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Today's "National Crab Meat Newburg Day". Thing is, I don't know what that is, and don't much care. So I'm making this another special food day - gnocchi, it's what's for dinner! - you're welcome to do the same.Stick A Fork In It
OMFG: Today is National cheeseburger day. I will gladly pay you next Tuesday if you hook me up right now. Discuss that and more, in the comments. See you Monday, guys! [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Note to self: Don't search for image of "hot cross buns" with SafeSearch disabled. Related: Today's National Hot Cross Bun Day, a treat popular in Britain/former colonies, and immortalized in a well-known nursery rhyme. Happy snacking; see you Monday. [Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Sweet! It's National Macadamia Nut Day. Even sweeter: Our three day weekend. Hortense, of course, will be on weekend duty, and she will also provide a Sunday open thread for those who want company/conversation on Monday. See you then.Stick A Fork In It
Yum. Today is National Cherry Turnover Day, and I'll admit, that sounds really good right about now. Keep it hot and, er, fruity, in the comments, guys. See you Monday. [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Ladies, I forgot about the open thread until just now. Quick version: It's National Pecan Torte Day, and my brain is a mess. (Those are, however, unrelated.) Sorry! [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
Bad news, team cake: Tomorrow is National Lemon Meringue Pie Day. Sweet treats and sweet nothings, in the comments below. See you Monday! [The Nibble]Stick A Fork In It
…Or maybe a spoon? Today's National Frozen Custard Day, and the history books credit Thomas Carvellus with launching the soft-serve market by selling from a truck, and later a store (Carvel!). Tasty treats and other stuff, below. [The Nibble]Stick A Fork (Toothpick?) In It
"Jump For Jellybeans" Day? Yeah, I have no idea. Does it refer to these? High-impact exercise combined with gelatinous sugared candies? (I like Strawberry Daiquiri, personally.) Your guesses, and the usual stuff, in the comments. See you Monday. [The Nibble]Stick A
It's National Tequila Day, but before you start pounding shots, please pay attention to this administrative note: Because the comment system is unwieldy re: open threads, we suggest you promote any unfeatured comments to make reading/replying easier. See you Monday.ForkWorm In It
