kidsmoke Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 So I'm trying to cut up some carrot sticks for crudites for Thanksgiving, and I'm being really careful and cutting them up neatly, all the same size. They were very long carrots so I was cutting them in thirds. Our conversation started out pleasantly enough: Me: See, Jeff, I'm peeling these carrots and then...Jeff (at far higher volume than was probably necessary) "...then you cut it in half!"Me: No Jeff, these need to be in thirds.Jeff, loud and insistent: "THEN YOU CUT IT IN HALF!" I just ignored him but honestly he kept carping about it for like 3 minutes! I cut them in thirds. Don't take cooking advice from a musician. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lotti Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 It may be surprise for all with reputation of the Swedish, but I have never used the carrot in the crude way. I shall try at your recommendation!Welfare!P.S. I will not cut in half as I am used to Olsen! Ha ha!P.P.S. I write Olsen from polite habit, but in truth it is Anders from butcher shop who has record and I give thanks as in your tradition! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kidsmoke Posted November 28, 2019 Author Share Posted November 28, 2019 Oh Lotti, I bid you and Anders and Olsen the spirit of this American holiday! Be grateful and eat and drink excessively, and then relax and unzip the tight pants (but nothing more!) and then, welfare to you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 My dear Lotti, celery also makes a wonderful crudite! But beware its stringiness. A dip will help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
