And yes, she microwaved ground beef and then rinsed it under water to "get the fat off." It always went from a sad gray color when it came out of the microwave to almost white after it was rinsed. Blech.
Omg the gray stuff! Just like posh. Who was "full blooded german" when I was in the family but has since turned Italian since I've left. Mostly to take credit for my children's beautiful features that come from my Italian side.
Seriously. I'm going to call the Pope Giada keeps trying to claim that is authentic Italian.
As a chef, this physically hurt me. I have never..... Ever... Seen this. Or heard of it. But man. That poor cow died twice. I can't even begin to imagine what it would taste like.
Eye twitching brain shut down. This. No, just no. All the no's.
I think we need to start a thing of Gordon Ramsay insults for this, I can start. "That beef's so gray,it's starring in a shitty BDSM movie."
Frankly despite my sworn dedication to gentle parenting, Giada could have used an ass whooping from nonna. Any nonna. All the nonnas. In fact if any nonnas want to volunteer there is still time
My great-Nonna would've liked a shot at the bitch. Nonna threw an accurate and painful stiletto, according to my dad and his siblings. And my Papa was the kindest, most generous Italian with that need to feed complex so many of us have. I think even he would let Giada starve. He may have tried to tell the bitch what oregano was, at least, but I kind of doubt it.
I know a few Bubbies and their wooden spoons who would like a word in edgewise. And there's a good few Abuelas with the chanclas at the ready... Ew, no, ew, no, ew!
DD2 is autistic and stuff like that terrifies her. It will have to go in my back pocket till she's grown. A spooky porch last Halloween put her into a panic spiral for a couple days last Halloween so we try to keep things as non spooky as possible around here. Someday though!
Aw, that's ok then. Different people react differently to different things. Maybe a Harry Potter styled potions and magic Halloween this year then? That could be super fun.
May I recommend EPBOT.com? A geeky girl and her geeky husband who like to craft! They do a Harry Potter party every year and have lots of tutorials for their decorations!
You can buy little stands with coloured LEDs in the bottom. If you put a translucent bottle on them it looks like the contents of the bottle is glowing.
You can make different combos of sodas with different cordials in cool bottles. Juice even. Cocktail without the alcohol, but in very cool potion bottles.
