Your Personal Recipe Bitch

[Tony S]

Dear Internet Recipe Publishers,

1. You were obviously smoking crack when you wrote this. Did anyone actually TEST it?
2. Please. Just give me the recipe. Don't explain why it's so important to world peace. Don't offer to build me a shopping list. I don't care about the antioxidants. Above all, do not make me watch a video.
3. If you honestly think cream cheese has any place other than on top of a bagel, we're through, baby, we're through.

There has to be a back story here somewhere.

WTF is with this, anyway? You find a recipe you are interested in, then have to scroll for a half hour to get to the actual instructions.

I think this is just the @Tony S back story. Like interstellar noise after the Big Bang...

It's just the accrual of many stories.

Don’t care about the recipe. Just stay out of the kitchen when I’m trying to execute it. And stfu.

I was with you ... right up to the cream cheese. Cream cheese frosting on carrot cake! Peanut butter pie! Cheesecake! C'mon!

Okay, I'll concede that one.

(Edit: It also reveals that I don't generally do desserts.)

I misread the title, was thinking you were referring to a person rather than an activity or emotional state.

That would be an even better thread ... I'm trying to decide if I want one or not.

Actually, I thought that too. And for many people I know, I'm their personal recipe bitch.

I have to say, I've seen recipes with cream cheese for all kinds of sauces..and I'm thinking, that's just lazy! Like, pasta carbonara with cream cheese?! Where am I?!?

My man.

Cream cheese and green chiles stirred up and eaten by the tablespoon, I mean, that's legitimate, right? Asking for a friend.

My man.

Then they want me to put peas in there.. Makes me want to find them and give THEM some peas... And I like peas!

I can deploy my ambiguity / poor phrasing / double meaning / incompetence with the best of them.

I mean, everyone has certain inappropriate junk food shoveling fests... We won't judge you....r friend...

(As I just shoveled down 1/4L of Cows chocolate ice cream... cows.ca... You won't be disappointed..)

She gets it.

And so do I. I don't want to watch any video's, just get the recipe, I'll decide if I need to print it.
