Think of the fightiest song you can I need some kind of head on take charge something or other.
How come if I search for gaspode's cheesy potatoes it doesn't spit out the recipe?
I have cheeses. I have cream. Many potatoes. What is the problem.

Honey mustard chicken and seasoned rice roasting in the oven. Work done. People offended. Backhanded apologies offered. Two stiff cocktails down.
Yeah, I feel venty.

Thursday, I'm helping someone accept his imminent death. This means I am totally skipping class Friday.

Here's a copy/paste:

Cheesy Potatoes

Disclaimer: don't come running to me whining about little things like extra fat on your ass, heart attacks or strokes. You knew about all the fat going in.

preheat oven to 400 F

2lb potatoes, peeled and sliced (yukon gold, natch)
2 cups 1/2 and 1/2
2 cups whipping cream
1 clove garlic, smashed (this is the recipe; I usually use 4 or 5)
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp white pepper
3/4 lb gruyere cheese, grated

Combine first 6 ingredients, heat to boiling, stirring constantly
Spoon into buttered shallow baking dish
Sprinkle cheese on top
bake at 400 F for 45 minutes
reduce heat to 350 F for 30 minutes

keep an eye on them, and cover if the cheese gets too brown.

And here's TPS' video.

Augh, no white pepper! No fresh cracked black pepper either. Damn.
I never complain about the fat on my ass, and i have issues with the people who do.

2 cups 1/2 and 1/2?

I hate the fact that once you lose a certain amount of weight as a woman, you are never allowed to talk about weight ever again. Wow, I could bitch about the associated issues with that all day.

Like how if you say "I've been really busy," it apparently translates to "I am so much busier than you," because everything is really a competition. WTF.

two cups of half and half.

I can't believe my cheese potato video has almost 2500 views. That's insane.

I don't know any of these songs.

I totally faked it. Milk, cream, no peeling. Not enough guyere. Other cheeses.
Life is an experiment.
Should I document it?
I think the only video I have is imovie.

Music! Somebody! Think of your favorite rock em sock em song.

Ok, way too much milk. I think not enough cheeses.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 18:09
Yeah, so tiny lake of creamy something at the bottom of the oven? I'm sure it will wipe right up.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 18:23
Well, after the chicken and rice, I really have no room for a tray of cheesy potatoes.
Man, people are going to converge on this place tomorrow like it's a zombie apocalypse.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 19:09
They look great, crusty, creamy. I should take a picture.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 19:13
Oh, I just posted Big Star with a pic of the Bees, just because.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 19:28
It doesn't even play. Wtf. And all the cooking has made it hot in here.
It's like I should do my one page of homework or something.
posted by ethylene 19 March | 19:30
And so I had to taste it fresh, because I have tattooed the oven burns on my arm, that's the kind of cook I use to be, and it is, with all its flaws and substitutions, potatoey goodness.

Du Hast

Lyrics (translation)

You hate
You hate me
(4 times)

You
You hate
You hate me
You hate me.

You hate me to say
You hate me to say
You hate me to say
And i did not obey.

Will you until death does sever
Be upright to her forever
Never
Will you until death does sever
Be upright to her forever
Never
Do
Do hast
Do hast mich

Do
Do hast
Do hast mich
Do
Do hast
Do hast mich

Do hast mich
Do hast mich gefragt
Do hast mich gefragt
Do hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt
Will you 'til death be her rider
Her lover too, to stay inside her
Never
Never
Will you until death does sever
Be upright to her forever
Never

Aber, aber. Who started discussing german lyrics without notifying me?

(in German "you have" and "you hate" sound the same.)

When I heard Ich will I thought it so astounding how the song has a rock star professing his will to power over the adoring masses.

Ooh, I think I have to go for the Leonard Cohen, but it won't load the live version I want.
Once again, compromise.

Maybe Bodom next. Keep the rage flowing.

This would have to be up there on the list of fighty songs.

Crap. I may be addicted to these potatoes.
