in the 2016 movie "rosalie blum", the titular character has these polish pottery mugs, mismatched. i also have some, also mismatched. i think it's supposed to convey a bohemian easy-going-ness, but it's just very hard to find the same mug design twice. good movie, kind of amelie-ish.

production facility tours are not available (far from clean enough would be my guess). it's just a big gift shop. scams like this are common in tourist hotbeds like iowa, they've lost the capacity to see other human beings as anything more than an overfull wallet.

i think it's fine to post a hot dog that's not quite perfect. if it's too perfect, like these, it can cause others to experience jealousy or envy. be authentic with your hot dogs.
a hot dog with some kind of fisha hot dog that is mostly bun and maybe sauerkraut, with pickled jalapenos and probably barbecue sauce. the hot dog is not visible.a hot dog that is covered in a a watery sauce and grated orange cheese. the bun has lost its structural integrity and it is leaking onto the plate.a hot dog from 5 guys, the ketchup has soaked into the bun. the photographer did not attempt to achieve even lighting across the photo, as 75% is in shadow.

what if the cap is designed to be worn slightly crooked, so the logo is in the middle of the head?

pick up a box of honey oh's on a lark, and friends, most of the holes are completely empty. the box tricks you into thinking they are mostly going to be full. if "good things (are) in the middle", then this has very few good things. overall, cereal is too sweet for my taste. 2 stars.

my brother was in the peugeot posse. his was like this, but it was the red version. it came with a matching cycling cap. i would wear it to school sometimes (stolen valor), but eventually my head grew too large for it.

current state of my english muffins. 80% hydration, 70g dough balls. preheat 2 metal sheets to 470f, drop to 430f when the muffins go in. bake for 18-19 minutes. handle very gently after shaping to retain the nice circular shape and avoid dents in the top.

as far as i can tell, this is the oldest guy i've seen in a movie. santa clara did not grant degrees in theater until the 1960s, so he managed to become an actor without changing his major.

possibly the first time i've seen "slicing a summer sausage" used in a movie to communicate "confident, unworried". in other contexts, this same message might be done with a youth playing with a yoyo or throwing a ball up in the air.
clark gable in a top hat slicing a summer sausage (he is pulling the knife toward himself). they met in bombay, 1941.

does it have any labels that say if the warranty is voided by outdoor use? the photos i've found seem to suggest it works outdoors.

this guy in the great escape is wearing a strange hat. it seems like it is an adjustable dockworker's cap. but for some reason, he's wearing the adjustable side on the front.

michael caine in "the ipcress file" (1965). pretty good. fingers curled under, he's not going to lose a finger tip.
a screen shot from the 1965 film "the ipcress file" of a cutting board with onions and ham chopped, while a green pepper is being julienned. he appears to be making a denver omelet, though the mountain of onions he's chopped seems like way too much relative to everything else.

michael clayton's ex-wife has a olympia cremina. nice machine, and not inexpensive, but a "mom with school aged kid" lifestyle doesn't seem like she'd be a lever machine person. they probably got it when she and michael were dinks and she got it in the divorce.

i live near that light rail station. there are signs that specifically say that you aren't supposed to drive on the tracks with your car.
