Those little seeds and their coating are the actual fruit. Botanically the strawberry is a compound fruit, not a berry.
But call it a berry… Botanical classifications are not culinary ones, or common usage.
While you’re at it, ignore other botanical labels. They mean nothing in the kitchen.
You can call peanuts nuts, and rhubarb fruit… but NOT tomatoes… They’re vegetables. Really. Honest. No less than the Supreme court said so, 150 years ago, but the ridiculous story lives on.
I’ve said before that gifs sometimes outpace my eyes, so I may miss details. But I keep watching this, and the action still seems to stop in the middle.
I mean when the bell cap? weight??… is lifted from the cheese….
I’m not sure whether or why that makes the little pony (?) start running.
He does look like a pony, right? Not a rat… And ponies don’t run because they see cheese. And it doesn’t look like it was fully covered anyway.
But it’s cute.
So yeah Happy 5th Birthday… Whoever and wherever you may be!
I found mine. It’s an interesting, albeit obvious, manipulation of multiple images of the same scene. The scene appears to shift in perspective, but the scenery itself remains the same.
I keep some right at hand, ever since you posted some 3D pics a couple of years ago. Just paper ones, from a dollar tree coloring book I lucked into, but they work.
And yes…
It’s kind of like paper cut-outs, or a pop-up card, not three dimensional people… And the man in front looks like he’s wearing a silver shirt.
I’ve read back and forth arguments about putting an apple in the potatoes… Some say it works, others say you get a rotten apple spoiling your potatoes. But maybe they didn’t keep a good eye on it.
You can use dental floss for brie or other soft cheese…. But I don’t think you want to try it on a good hard cheddar. And you’d probably make a mess with really soft cheese like cream cheese.
I tried the fork thing once with cilantro… Half the leaves just pulled through the tines. It’s ok, you can eat the stems anyway.
I want to try it with basil… The leaves are bigger, and the stems firmer, and you do only want the leaves with that.
But do watch out microwaving anything with a solid peel. You probably want to poke a hole in that lemon, and only nuke it for 10 seconds or so. I don’t think the goal is cooked lemon or an explosion.
I looked at it on several Facebook and Instagram pages….
Most people were saying yeah, wear a helmet, or telling how a helmet saved them.
But it was amazing how many idiots were saying they wouldn’t wear one… Helmets break your neck, block your hearing, etc.
Some said these pictures were fake, especially #4, which BTW came from somebody dragged under a car.
One arrogant guy said he’d been riding for 40 years and never crashed because he was vigilant and always knew what car drivers were going to do, and crashes just proved other motorcyclists weren’t careful.
Well, yeah. They tipped it over on its back, and were probably going to try to hold it up there with 2 or 3 people hanging on to it with their hands sticking out the windows. Don’t ask me how I know. Let’s just say we were all young, inexperienced, and poor at one time.
It actually took pairs of pictures you looked at, when developed, with a special viewer, and saw 3d images.
It was supposed to be the wave of the future… But like 3d movies, it turned out that people didn’t want to wear special glasses at the movies, or look through a viewer one at a time to see your vacation pictures.
They wanted to hang Grandma’s picture on the wall, or make a baby scrapbook, that anyone could see.

I sound the alarm!
Mailman Fiend – come to kill us all –
Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark!

It kind of makes itself.
Even though that wasn’t the intention, when it won a prize in a photo contest several years ago.
Don’t annoy the Cobra Chicken…….

Pandamonium
That’s what came to my mind, too.
It’s a fake, but a fun one anyway.
It were only real, you could have a giant vase of pandawillows to celebrate spring.

I do. Someplace.

I’ll have to try the eggshells and the fork method.
The floss I use is wax coated and peppermint flavour though.
Mmmm…… brie ala menthe…

I’d rather roll the citrus with a little force on a hard surface.

An episode of neither “Make Room For Daddy” nor “Leave it to Beaver”…
Those series’ co-stars, Angela Cartwright and Jerry Mathers, respectively, are guest stars on the Dinah Shore Chevrolet Show, in April 1960..
I think she is putting a five year old’s moves on this little boy. He, like most little boys, and grown men, is clueless.
..
But I don’t want to wear a helmet. It makes me look like a sissy. I’d rather help the world by being an organ donor.
Said to be all recovered from actual accidents.

He didn’t make a lot of friends in that forum.

“Arrrh…”
My thoughts exactly, but you beat me to it!
If he’s going to go leaping about like a pirate, he’d better turn that knife around….
Or it won’t be “arrrh”, it’ll be “ayyeeeow!!”
see the butterfly?
Yup!
Yes… It doesn’t look like it’s even trying to hide.

Now try having one of them jump up and down on the roof…
I suppose whoever captioned it assumed everybody’d know that a DKW type F7 is a 1937 Audi.
Maybe you do… but I didn’t.
I Googled it, so we’d all know.
BTW the picture was taken in 1937, when the car was new.

“Dude! What the heck are you doing back there?”
Trying to create a gigantic hairball to hork right in the path to the bathroom tonight.
I’m thinking the couch looks quite alarmed…
Well, yeah. They tipped it over on its back, and were probably going to try to hold it up there with 2 or 3 people hanging on to it with their hands sticking out the windows. Don’t ask me how I know. Let’s just say we were all young, inexperienced, and poor at one time.
For the ‘World of Tomorrow!’
