I need to remember to double shrimp taco recipes. These were great and gone too fast.

Great. Added the leftovers + pasta + Carbone spicy vodka sauce 👌🏻

A perfectly paced recipe. The salmon cooks while you prep the rest, and then it's done.

Hands-Down, These Are the Best Shrimp Tacos of Your Life

This is the best shrimp taco recipe of your life. So easy, made on the grill, and topped with a creamy sauce and zesty grapefruit salsa.

Statistically, I spend more time in CI fixing failures due to upstream changes than mistakes in my code.

@pointfreeco What is the upgrade path for The Point Free Way? Does it update automatically somehow?

@rizzi Any chance you're willing to share how you did the YouTube support in the latest Reeder? I'd like to add YouTube support to my app but am struggling to figure out a reliable solution.

Overnight Brown-Butter Yeast-Raised Waffles Recipe

Despite an overnight rise, these waffles are meant to be whipped up on a whim, on those late nights when you just know brunch is in the cards. To honor that impulse, the batter comes together in five minutes flat, and in the morning there's nothing left to do but plug in your iron. Minutes later, you'll be enjoying crisp and fluffy waffles, rich with brown butter and chewy from the slow interaction of flour and water.

@kyle Thanks for your "how to not write like ai" skill. I've been using it today to write first drafts of docs and it's doing a pretty good job. I feel more compelled to play fast and loose with "We should make a doc for this" knowing that it'll be 90% of the way there and just needs some tweaks/vetting.

Addendum: I'm a former creative director and not sounding like an idiot is important to me. It's supporting this goal pretty well.

Just came across a photo from the time our coworker SK got a job somewhere else and I made corn dogs on her last day.

Pollo Asado  Recipe • 4★ • 1 hr 10 min, plus at least 3 hrs marinating

Pollo asado, Mexican marinated and grilled chicken, uses pigmented annatto seeds to get its signature brick red color. Annatto seeds can be found in Latin supermarkets or online, but a cube of prepared achiote paste is a suitable sub. This recipe uses two types of dried chiles, for which there are no substitutes; however, if they’re hard to come by, swap them out for a can of seeded chipotles in adobo for a different, but still delicious, smoky vibe. The acidity from the citrus in the marinade helps tenderize the chicken legs, but a limit does exist; keep it under 12 hours. Serve the chicken alongside pickled onions and warm tortillas for quick tacos, or beans and rice.
