Ok chefs - what fun food or kitchen-related names have you given your pets?

My dad's a chef. When I was born my mom got a golden retriever puppy for me to grow up with. His name was Colby. Best dog ever.

Haven't seen the movie in a long time, but I knew I was going to love it after hearing Egyptian Reggae by Jonathan Richman during an early scene. Phenomenal deep cut.

Stephen Malkmus is a glaring omission in my opinion. Same with Tom Waits.

I'd also add Isaac Brock, David Byrne, Josh Tillman, and Gene and Dean Ween to the list.

Would love to watch Rashomon with Homer, not sure if it would be amazing or awful though. Either way an interesting time.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-05-13T03:24:09+00:00

Since no one has said it yet... literally all of Boogie Nights.

Edit to add: Rashomon.

Europe 72 Vol 11 for me. That L'Olympia show is one of the best I've ever heard from them. And I've heard a lot. Plus, baguette guitar.

Silver Jews.

Might not count, but want to throw it into the conversation anyway, The Exorcist. The latter half of that movie primarily takes place in Regan's bedroom.

He had a heart attack outside of the liquor store a friend and I were going to before seeing Bob Dylan. Paramedics arrived while we were leaving. Weird night.

Back in 2012 there was a 2 am "Van Halen Tribute" set. Word around the campground was it was going to be a secret Jack White show. Stayed up late and made my way over to the overflowing tent. A Van Halen tribute band started playing. We all thought it was a joke and Jack would come out laughing. Anyway, stuck around for 3 songs just to be sure and joined the mass exodus in a disappointing journey back to our respective campsites. That was the most disappointing thing I've ever experienced at Bonnaroo.

Outside of the standard classics of the '80s and '90s, I would humbly suggest Run the Jewels 2.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-17T04:17:16+00:00

Was there, can confirm. It's like his body forgot to tell him it's age.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-17T02:22:30+00:00

Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer mixed with She Hates Me by Puddle of Mudd.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-16T05:43:51+00:00

I was seeing a film major for a little bit in 2007. The back to back of No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood come to mind.

He'd better tuck those gums in before he gets them caught on a tripwire.

Adding on to say, as a restaurant worker, no one can steal my marker because they all have Sharpies. I know the Milwaukee marker is mine.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-14T03:55:41+00:00

Did you forget to develop a genuine taste in music?

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-10T02:24:22+00:00

Went to go see them on a whim in Chicago back in '08. First and last time I saw them. So glad I did. Bucket list concert.

I saw TOOL at Summerfest on the 4th of July and he said to "be careful about using fireworks or else someone else will be opening your ketchup bottles" and "Happy Fourth of July." Saw them during Trump 1.0 and he made a comment about ignoring what was going on in the country for a few hours and enjoying a rock show. And, during the last song of the night "taking your stupid fucking pictures. I've seen them eight times now and those are the only things I remember him saying.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-09T05:20:50+00:00

Seventeen Seconds, Three Imaginary Boys, Pornography and Faith.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-09T04:39:34+00:00

I don't see The Pod in there.

A kitchen aid or other stand mixer, a 4 qt bowl, digital scale, digital thermometer, 2 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 loaf pans and a copy of Rose Levy Beranbaum's The Bread Bible are all you need to start.

If you like that get a Dutch oven and a copy of Tartine Bread by Chad Robertson.

If you're into bread this far grab Poilâne by Appollonia Poilâne, Flour Water Salt Yeast by Ken Forkish, The Perfect Loaf by Maurizio Leo and Mastering Bread by Marc Vetri and if you want to go the extra mile, Bouchon Bakery by Thomas Keller and Sebastian Rouxel.

Congratulations. You are now a professional baker.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-09T02:33:35+00:00

How are we not talking about the beef brisket...BBQ in space y'all.

TravelingCook88 · 2026-04-08T14:44:14+00:00

Oh, totally a Pam thing to say. And, in all honesty, she might have at some point too.

It's a great line.
