he is not a hot dog, either

I'm waiting up for my flan to finish baking, after which it will need to cool, after which I will finally be able to go to bed, after which I will get up and work, after which I will buy ice cream on my way to dinner because I'm pretty sure this flan is going to be a disaster.

Things I will be avoiding in the future: making desserts that require a water bath, melting sugar to make caramel, and touching melted sugar with my fingertip to see if it's hot.

Things I do recommend: the yachtsman, the Neuhaus chocolates he brought me from DC:


In other news, the next person to call my puppy a wiener dog is gonna get pistol whipped. The pistol whipping may be metaphorical, but it will smart nonetheless:

Person in park: Hey, is that a wiener dog?
Me, brandishing metaphorical pistol: YOU'RE A WIENER DOG!

You've been warned.

    i have used that same exact scientific method of testing the melting progress of sugar myself...not really recommended, that f-ing method.

    The flan was completely delicious. Never, never pay attention to any negative writing from the awesome cook who writes this blog.

    He might not be a hot dog but he sure is a Peanut!

    I'm still partial to Parsnip, but it doesn't sound nearly as appetizing as Peanut or Weiner.
