For two weeks, Josh & Katy blogsit. Can you remember two years ago? If you are a full-grown adult, I certainly hope you can. Otherwise, you should really drink less. I’m serious.

People are trading me on a fake blogger stock exchange. I am worth $13,751.50! Now when do I get my check?

[For three weeks, Josh & Katy blogsit]Many people like barbeque. Few understand it.Let’s take an example, shall we? When the Amateur Gourmet visited Bobby and June’s Kountry Kitchen in May, he was surprised to be served a plate of barbequed beef that looked like this:This is what he had to say about it then: Looks…

Ok, this was too funny not to link to: CHEESE CHICKEN!. It all started when I linked to this story (in which famed Italian cooking expert Marcela Hazan eats at the Olive Garden) on Metafilter. Enjoy!
