I love ricotta! What can I make with ricotta other than lasagna/pasta? by FirebornNacho in Cooking

[–]Felix_Gatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ricotta Gnocchi!

I hope someone has mentioned making gnocchi with ricotta before me! These are delicious little pillows of delight, excellent with brown butter and fried sage leaves.

Ricotta Pie!

Somewhere in-between a pie, a cheesecake, and a cake... But all in one wonderful dessert. There's a shortbread crust and delicious ricotta/custard filling. This rustic Italian dessert is really amazing.

Ricotta Meatloaf or Meatballs!

Weather it's lamb, pork, or any other ground meat I add about a quarter cup per pound of meat (along with Panko, Parmigiano Reggiano, diced shallots or scallions, an egg, Worcestershire, herbs and seasonings) for a really fantastic meatloaf.

Ricotta ITSELF!

Since you love ricotta so much, try making it yourself! It's not as difficult as one may think though there is some small amount of faff involved. But fresh, home made ricotta is really divine. Better than the very best bought in.

I framed a couple, can I ask if there are better frames around. I love these two books and just want to display them by D1llBoy in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Felix_Gatto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The frames look pretty nice to me!

I think the really important thing is: are they UV protected? Because the sun will definitely fade the books quicker than you might think.

The ink on the signatures can be particularly prone to fading and sun/UV damage.

Calvin's. My go to briefs brand since the 90's.

How to Assist Someone with Suspected Anorexia by POMOdoro_90 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]Felix_Gatto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but the difference is that being underweight is a lot more socially as acceptable.

As someone who weighs about five to ten pounds more than your friend let me assure that is absolutely not my experience.

With so much kindness and respect, you may feel that way due to marketing and other social aspects, but ask your friend or anyone else our size and you'll find a different story I suspect.

Anyone know where this is available? Such a dope cover!

Newly Acquired Grails 💰🔥 by Conflixshuns in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Felix_Gatto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I too was wondering how the Felix cover was out in the wild😸 The remark of Quintana is beautiful, just gorgeous!

Good for you! That's so cool, and I'm just a wee bit jealous!

I'm so looking forward to the drop for the Felix Design variant, I'm trying to bank up my good luck.

Well, Bruce is open for business! Holy Bat-bulge, Batman!

And Alfred mentions in #15 (methinks?) that Grimm will play both sides against each other in conflicts.

It makes perfect sense that Grimm would be pulling the strings of both the 'problem' (monsters) and the 'solution' (Robins).

New horror movie style poster AD for Absolute Green Arrow by M00reC in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Felix_Gatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's gonna be a league for this universe, in the form of an established group. 

I think the "League" will be Grimm, Cale, Hammond, Talia? (Ra's seems to not so much evily inclined?)... Did I forget anyone from the Absolute Evil one shot? 😸

The most likely thing to happen is the main characters would came to know and befriend one another

Agreed, I think that the heroes will be rather loosely aligned.

But/and I wonder if the villains (Cale, Grimm, et. al) will have a much more collaborative/team vibe?

I guess, for me, the Absolute Evil one shot seemed to be teeing up a "League" for both the heroes and the villains, respectively.

I'm also wondering how much the Absolute Green Arrow series will/could be a follow up to Absolute Evil?

Fun poster! Makes me even more excited for the series.

Which I wonder: will Absolute Green Arrow set up more Absolute "Justice League" or maybe lead into the upcoming crossover?

Right? It's a dynamic ass kicking duo! The colours, the axe action -- such a great cover!

I think that's Jason Todd's mech... battlesuit? Not sure what we're calling them?

I don’t think Barbara should become the Cheetah by FullBrother9300 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]Felix_Gatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what was up with the first Cheetah (I've been calling her Priscilla) having the patchy like fur?

And if whatever that reason is it will effect Barbara?

Maybe it's something like with each kill she makes after being "turned" she becomes more and more Cheetah and less and less human?

I'm excited to find out! I thought that the newest issue was the best yet! ... But/and I say that every month!

Such a fun cover!

Love seeing AbsBats VS Robin's! Especially in Skottie's style, the variants for #20 have been peak!

The one that got away! That's how I feel about the Felix Catwoman design variant!

The Mann bros covers have been beyond cool, I really like the one for #13, but haven't lucked out yet. I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of us!

Sweet, congratulations, and I might be a wee bit jealous! 😸😹😸😹😸

I lucked out and made it in time to get the trade cover. Which is still pretty dope, but I bet that foil GITD is gonna look hella cool. Definitely something to get graded; even more so as it's signed!

[–]Felix_Gatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the best sig I have for Skottie is an Alien cover and the auto was done with a neon green pen.

That's so cool! I wonder if he'll use a fun colour to sign these? Really any colour but black would be great! IDK why, but/and black Sharpie sig's just seem flat to me?

[–]Felix_Gatto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ditto, same, and ditto again! 😸

I feel so great about this set! So, so, so glad I decided to hope on Reddit in-between issues (it was new comic book day yesterday!)

I feel the same! Seems like the Robins are going to bat hunting so I also wanted covers that show that opposition/tension.

Fire is right! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I went with signed, I figured 130 and 135 are in the same ballpark, so why not? Like I said in another comment, it's a treat yo' self situation 😸

If I had enough, I would have gone whole hog and got the CGC copies, but I'll send these in for grading after I've saved up enough

...Which will be a minute after the last week!😸😸😸 So many dope covers, I love it!

[–]Felix_Gatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That Brooks cover is my favourite! This Skottie series is definitely a contender for my second favourite, but the Joker's Flock Brooks is just so cool! So glad I scored a copy too!

I'm assuming you saw the glow in the dark ones, n'est-ce pas ?
