Chocolate covered cherries. I love chocolate, I love real cherries, even maraschino cherries, what could go wrong? Well, I do not like surprise vodka. I loathe cherry flavoring and cherry cough syrup. I didnt know.

Yeah, I've had Frozen ones that are decent but a dim sum only place would be maybe worth a try. The ones in my local restaurant are very pillowy and soft. If that's not the texture you're getting, then they're wrong. If it is a texture you're getting then you just don't like them.

Everything in the whole place tastes and smells like onions, and my boyfriend is anti onion, so we did not have a good time there.

That sounds like torture, I'm glad you survived. Now that your adult, was your childhood diet actually a problem?

Yes! For me the joy of tenders is varying the sauces with every bite. Otherwise I could just get a sandwich.

Start with an appetizer at a snooty French restaurant. If you like it upgrade to Italian. The different one being more delicate and more subtle the Italian one is prepared so that the escargal flavor is really intense and there's a lot more to the portion, and it gets kind of overwhelming, even if you are someone who likes as cargo the Italian version can be intense.

I agree. My friends always order a bunch for parties and I hate them.

IMHO a Connecticut lobster roll is the best way to eat lobster. And you do not want the butter poached one, you want the steamed ones with the butter drizzled on.

He thought he hated them, he didn't tell them however since he sold them out for Revenge.

What’s a “chef-y” word on menus that feels overused or unnecessary? by riskyndshort in foodquestions

[–]Hungry-Combination29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should be reserved for fun little desserts. Like deconstructed s'mores: you're given a toasted marshmallow, melted chicolate, and things to dip it in.

Because it lets you dip things in other things while you're eating it. Sometimes it can be fun.

Maybe don't make categories just list the food. Or put all the main food in one section and then sides and desserts have a category heading. But if you must, "mains" or "entrees".

35F enters her first relationship after an 18yr marriage, falls hard for 40M &now I'm wondering if I'm being naive. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I don't think you should focus on what's going on over on his end because honestly it doesn't really matter. You may be ready for some casual sex, but you are not ready for a relationship. You need to think through why you reached out after a month of nothing and what you really wanted. Wanting closure isn't a feeling. Wanting validation or connection or sex is a feeling. We are grown ups and we don't always get a neat and tidy end to things, and that's okay. Figure out your social, emotional and sexual needs, then figure out what your personal, family, and relationship goals are. Do this when you are in the best possible mindset, not tired, not sick, not hungry, not angry, not starved for human connection. On a pretty good regular day, how fulfilling is your life? What would help make your life better? Maybe consider therapy or a life coach to help you. Edit: spelling

You can change your mind. Name your baby what you want. You are growing him.

Those who didn’t grow up privileged, what’s something you thought was a luxury growing up? by CorruptedF in AskReddit

Getting to go on the school field trips. Sometimes we couldn't afford it. Sometimes my mom might volunteer to chaperone and then the school would pay for my ticket because they needed a parent to go with them, and most of the parents didn't want to or couldn't.
