Just trying to get every worthy flavor profile embedded in my favorite Lodge pan.

Plimpton 322 and Base 60
This is a crazy interesting video:
“Babylonian mathematics may have been out of fashion for more than 3,000 years, but it has possible practical applications in surveying, computer graphics and education. This is a rare example of the ancient world teaching us something new.”
Kentucky Fried Gai
Rolling through these mean trademark-infringing streets.
Background on the Dragon Battle (The Loot Train Scene)
Two excellent videos about the battle scene from Episode 4 of Season 7 of GoT (SPOILERS).
The latter video’s title is kind of misleading: It’s not the actual scene, but a behind the scenes look.
Ultra bad-ass image found here.
Outer Rooster
You know Sriracha is played out when you see it on the ISS: https://goo.gl/maps/2efiknVbirk
Thai Beef Meets US Beef
I offered the ox a taste of beef, but he refused, saying that he was Hindu, and although this could be viewed as narcissistic, it hardly hinted at cannibalism. “Besides,” he said, “where I’m from, ‘corn fed’ isn’t a compliment.”
Beef Basil Stir Fry with Lotus Seeds
I can never stop experimenting with new ingredients for krapow.
Also, a drippy fried egg makes everything taste better.
The Chill Zone
In the Radio Flyer, next to the air compressor.
A Gift of Wood
Nam put out the call on FB for fresh lamyai (longan) branches that I want to try for smoking meats, and a good friend came through.
Her dad cut off some branches from their trees in Ubon Rachathanee and sent them back with her this weekend.
Seeing as how imported apple wood chips cost about $30 US for a 5 lb bag, this should be a great alternative. Thanks, Jay (from J)!!
The Basil Sun God
Mina wants a pizza, Mina gets a pizza.
This pizza disappeared so quickly after it came out of the oven, I didn’t get a pic.
I’ve been trying new crusts and simple uncooked sauces… I now want a better (hotter) oven.
