I'll Say She Is!

Your ideas intrigue me

Here is a recipe for calamari with spicy anchovy mayonnaise. The unusual thing is not the anchovy mayo, but the fact that the calamari is coated with graham cracker crumbs. The chef says that "the sugar in graham cracker crumbs caramelizes so quickly that it gives the outside a light golden crisp before the calamari has a chance to overcook." I'm just adventurous enough to want to try that, yet not quite brave enough to make calamari on my own.

Well, I have owed Briano a calamari dinner for some time now. When I get around to making it, I'll invite you over and we can clean the squid together! It's fun! Really! It makes the cat insane.

Lane: Holy shit! You big faker. You speak English!
Monique: Of course I speak English. I speak very good English. I will not, however, speak Mrs. Smith's International Language of Love, with her reptilian son. He uses it as a chance to put his testicles all over me.
Lane: His what?
Monique: How you say…uh, octopus…testicles.
Lane: Tentacles. NT. Big difference.
Monique: Tentacles.

Such a glorious movie....
One of my all-time favorites!
Calamari in anchovy mayonnaise? Sounds like the perfect food.
I can't eat whole anchovies, but when they are ground into atomic particles, they can yield a nice flavor - Caesar dressing et al.
I want my 2 dollars!
