K that was the least entertaining awards show I’ve ever witnessed.
Y’all know I live for this crap. I showered real quick, put on my frumpiest jammies & poured a cup of hot tea. Only to turn the television on to a total yawnfest.
I didn’t watch Olive Kitteridge and I’m perpetually unimpressed by Jon Stewart so this really wasn’t my year anyways. But I wanted SOMETHING. No one even said anything controversial. They threw out Donald Trump’s name each time there was a lull in laughter – veeeeery original.
I did, however, appreciate Amy Schumer keeping it too real & thanking her makeup artist for her smoky eye. You just can’t do that ish yourself.
& Jon Hamm is an adorable doll baby that I wouldn’t mind keeping in my pocket.

Glad you told me about the Emmys. I recorded it but probably will just delete. Also Rachel, there must be some secret to roasting chickpeas that I don’t get. I tried recently – granted without the barbecue sauce marinade – just olive oil and salt and cayenne – but they turned out too hard and not light and crunchy as I expected. I might have had them in too long? Yours were crispy? I am thinking frying in oil is the way to go next time….

Hmm… how long are you roasting them for? & do you give them a stir in the middle of cooking? I usually roast mine when they’re drenched in a sauce, but sometimes just in EVOO & S+P & they’re fine. Cut back on cook time & give em a shake or two. Don’t give up on the chickpeas 😉

No BBQ this year in Ireland, no summer. For fun, do you know where Barbecue comes from? It’s from the French, ” De la barbe au cul” ( from the beard to the rear end). I love languages 😀
