§ 512. STATE PIE
The state pie shall be apple pie.

Sec. 2. SERVING APPLE PIE
When serving apple pie in Vermont, a "good faith" effort shall be made to meet one or more of the following conditions:
(a) with a glass of cold milk,
(b) with a slice of cheddar cheese weighing a minimum of 1/2 ounce,
(c) with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Lemon, fried garlic, cilantro (recipe said parsley, but see remarks about cleaning out fridge)
+rice +broth
Not-rice ingredients combined, Cajun spices added

I want to call this dish “one garlic, three ways” but the ways all get combined at the end, so, alas.

Apropos of nothing, Jen’s parents (adult ESL speakers) were totally convinced for decades that “garlic” was “ga-leek” (i.e. ga- was a prefix, since they’re obviously leek-related). I find this delightful.

Oblig. link to that article on how every cookbook lies about how long it takes to brown onions
Onions, chestnuts, chorizo and black garlic
Babe come over, we’re frying garlic

LOL at "investing".
