A giant jar of the heavy duty mayo that you can only buy in super bulk from a restaurant supply store
I was looking up why macaroni salad at restaurants is good and why mine is always mid in comparison. What do you mean there's "heavy-duty" mayonnaise?!

ah the noble donkey!

foolish beast
Good news to start your Monday: thanks to the removal of the four Klamath River dams, wild Chinook have hatched for the first time in over a century in the upper reaches of the Klamath!
This river reaches the Pacific in northern California, where K- and L-Pods spend time in the winter/spring.
accidentally ordered the Big American Joke Drink (xxl cappuccino) at a busy cafe this morning and the entire place erupted in laughter and cheers as the guy brought it over, placed it in front of me, and handed me a foot-long spoon to stir it with.. italy rocks
The alert first! Then a gentle shaking through the house after. This was in San Jose.
I think that is the coolest donut I've ever seen

The cat-actor looks so much like Simon! Thank you so much for reading ❤️
I had to get up and pace around to stop crying while writing this 😭

shoutout to this magnificent piece of public art
Condé Nast forgot to renew the trademark for Gourmet and so a group of journalists grabbed it and are relaunching the food magazine as a worker-owned co-op. Love it. [gourmetmagazine.net]
And the cafe inside is incredible

Two stick figures, one with a Santa hat and one with a chunk of cheese in its hand. The text above figure one: 1st-26th Dec. Festive. Above figure two: 27th Dec- 31st Dec. Confused, Full of cheese, Unsure of the day of week.
In the Miami airport. Oohh… Aahhh.
At least I knew it was fiction, but I kept waiting for the jokes and just got more and more petrified 😭 I would have passed out if I caught this on TV back in 1992!
The poster for the BBC special “Ghostwatch.”
My local indie theater described “Ghostwatch” as a “parody” and a “prank.” I, a horror weenie, loaded it up thinking it was a comedy 😭 😭 😭 It is…not a comedy.
Ooh, this is cool!
Drawing of a heraldic device consisting of an escutcheon with a hot dog being knighted by a man, in place of standard helmet is a jar of mustard, labeled "sinapi," supported by two wiener dogs on either side. Banderole below reads "CALIDUS CANIS"
Hot dog coat-of-arms, created for the 50th anniversary of the invention of the hot dog, at Coney Island in 1939. Shows a hot dog being knighted, flanked by two wiener dogs, crowned by mustard. (They took some liberties with the Latin, but do you expect a hot dog place to have an in-house Latinist?)
I wonder if he likes the painting!
Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

jerry brown's portrait in the window of the California State Capitol building
wikipedia entry for Jerry Brown's gubernatorial portrait
My favorite thing about the California state capitol building is that, at night, you can see Jerry Brown's "controversial" portrait inside from half a mile away
Hey, congrats!
It's a local favorite!
La Vic's for Mexican (and orange sauce), CA Bakehouse for pastries, Duc Huong for Vietnamese sandwiches.
Thank you so much!

No prob!
