Common Cement, Engine Block Burgers … . . . and WHERE did I leave my keys?

ELLEN’S COMMENCEMENT SPEECH

So much fun I watched it twice.

COOKING LIKE A GUY™ WITH A HOT ROD

Denis Trover: “Out here on the desert even the women use the guys’ way to cook.”

☞ I love it. A carbecue!

The advice here is really helpful. E.g.:

Obviously, you don’t want to drive around the block 300 times just to cook dinner. That would be a waste of gas and time. Rather, if you’re already driving somewhere, find something to cook that fits into your travel plans . . .

And this, for one of those days when the car is parked in the blazing sun:

Prepare your favorite cookie dough recipe. Slice evenly and place on lightly oiled baking sheet. Place the baking sheet on top of your vehicle’s dashboard . . .

Pluses include: Dinner ready the minute you pull in your driveway; saves the gas or electricity that would have been needed to cook. Minuses: wastes a lot of aluminum foil; can’t have chocolate chip cookies and hot dogs at the same time unless willing to drive for hours with no a/c in the blazing sun.

I KEEP FORGETTING TO RECOMMEND THIS

AmazingMemorySecrets.com. Benjamin is a friend, and truly amazing. You can trust him. He may steal your watch (right off your wrist – that’s how I first met him) but he always gives it back. Want to remember people’s names? Where you left your keys? Check it out.
