I had beetroot for supper. Along with beet greens, broccoli, kale, and sweet potato. I couldn't finish it.

I made carbonara a year back, or so, and really liked it... aaaand the wife and child vetoed it from future dinner consideration. :mad:

Pancetta, garlic, egg, pepper, and cheese.

Not sure if that is the 'real' way of doing it but that is how Ms. M taught me.

Even purists should add a little pasta water to loosen it up a bit.

Little splash, yeah.

Key is to not let that egg scramble. That's what happened last week.

I did and loved it. I knew the story in detail before seeing it, but the footage of him the weekend of his death was just so intense. It's like he knew what was going to happen before he got in the car. I was in tears in the theater for that whole bit of the film.

Some people are critical of the movie making him look like a martyr when he was really a very flawed guy in some ways, but I've always been a fan and his death is one of my first memories of that sport.

you can be flawed and still be extraordinary. No biggie.

What didn't they like?

Honestly, I think that it was the cooking method (or non-cooking method, as they saw it). IOW, I think that it was mostly a mental aversion to the egg yolks.

I saw that, just wondered if it was a ride I was familiar with.

The question is how do you decide who is a troll? Think about it.

Realize that just because someone asks a beginner's question doesn't make them a troll. Does it?

Maybe they're not a troll, maybe you're just in a foul mood or having a bad day. Maybe it's you, not them.

And maybe, just maybe everybody doesn't think just like you do or view the world just like you do. Maybe it's you, not them.

Or maybe you've forgotten you were a naive noob yourself at one time before getting all knowledgeable and sophisticated and all here on the bike forums.

Just saying . . . people are too quick to call others a troll. It's just an easy way to insult or bully somebody, many times simply because somebody don't like somebody.

Maybe you can tell, that troll thing is one of my pet peeves. :crash:

I do know it is a pet peeve of yours. That's why I was making a joke. I did omit the emoji but the bridge reference would be a hint. But really everybody knows who I am talking about, and by asking about the troll policy I was able to avoid calling him one. I was being coy. I'm surprised no one called me on it.
