The second one is straight out of some visual comedy bit
It was even funnier to watch -- Dearborn was pouncing because Polk’s tail was sticking out the back, and every time she pounced, Polk would get gently bonked in the head with the mat.

I love that the request was probably from someone struck by the "no your spacebar no longer works on Tumblr" bug but it looks like ~aesthetic~.
Oh man, I just assumed it was a meme I wasn’t aware of. Is that a new Tumblr bug, along with the app and the site no longer getting along?

My orange girl has an almost grey undercoat too with diluted stripes. I think it's a gorgeous combo and I tell her she's a pretty kitty all the time. Polk too!
They are extremely beautiful babies, even if I’m their dad and have to think that :D I hope they stay adorable as they grow up, but even if they don’t I will still love them.

Had a moment where I thought those were sugar cubes and just... didn't question it at all. Just Sam doing weird food combos again.
LOL! I bet it would be good with sugar cubes!
I’m hoping to try the leftover “spicy” strips with ranch dip because they are a bit hotter than I prefer. But now that I know how good Bonchon is I will probably be there very often for their Soy Garlic flavor.

Yes! Bonchon’s in the plaza, south of the zodiac statues. And there’s a BOMB ASS new bakery too!
I did have this weird “Is....is Chinatown GENTRIFYING?” moment, though, there are a lot of new shops with hip graphic design and lots of blond wood. It makes me sad that a hipster tea store appears to have replaced the Worst Junk Shop In The World.

soak the raisins in rum for 15 minutes before adding them (or warm water with a little honey and cinnamon if you don't want to use alcohol) it makes the cookies much moister and more flavorful
A bunch of people suggested this -- I’m almost tempted to make a second batch next week and try this, though there are other raisin recipes in the book so I think I’ll just try it with one of those.

Too much oat for the butter? Nnnooo? Too much flour, yes. Back that down to 1 1/2 c. Also use just 1 c golden raisins- better if they're soaked in hot water or alcohol first. The sugar is in the HARD CRUNCH SHARP EDGES range- I do love that intensely sweet taste sometimes, but I usually drop it to 1 c brown sugar and 1/2 cup white.
IDK, it was a SUPER wet dough as it was, less flour I think would make it spread too much, especially if the raisins are adding moisture as well. IDK about the sugar but they came out quite soft and chewy, though they did have crunchy edges.

How could you do that? That is evil. You're a super taster, have you no comprehension how awful raisins are to the wrong taste buds?
Well, I’d make a sign explaining, and then people wouldn’t have to take anything if they didn’t want raisins! I mean, it’d need an allergen sign anyway.
