Still better than Perkins neck beard or whatever it is Perkins has going.

That's a pretty low bar to clear.

 

[Cap'n Piranha]

Most people blame such things on auto-correct.

That actually IS Brian's style! Amazingly enough, it comes out coherently!

 

Well, most of the time...

[spinowner]

 

Agreed! I don't speak Spanish, but I know a little about which syllable should be accented, and PER-ez drives me up the wall! (Kind of like people who pretend that "data" are singular rather than plural.)

3 of Santana's last 4 starts have been duds. The other was the CG SO

Tell me what they are and give me a recipe and I'll have them ready. But having them ready doesn't mean I will open the door and offer them to you.

Impulse buy of the week: biscoff cookies. Saw them on the shelf, when I wasn't even looking for anything in that aisle, but just passing through to get to the front of the store and to check out, and there they were. Somehow they leapt off the shelf into my cart. Sigh. They are REALLY good. Might have to find a recipe for them.

I know what you mean. I had the same thing happen when I was browsing the local gun store.

My mom makes these! They are pretty yummy and always a hit during the holidays!

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

It's the same nightmare game after game except this time they've actually scored some runs for themselves.  I hope they aren't done.

200 Twins Daily Members dressed as kitties will be able to find their way in. 

 

I plan on playing your piano. 

 

ingredients
For the blondie cookie crust:
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour 
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
½ cup Biscoff Spread
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk

 

You can substitute the baking soda with Dr. Pepper

You can Substitue the Beaten Egg with one that was merely scolded a little. 

You can Substitute the Milk with Baking Soda. 

 

For the salted caramel sauce:
1 cup sugar
¼ cup water
¾ cup heavy cream
4 tablesoons butter
½ cup Biscoff Spread**
1 teaspoon vanilla
sea salt (I like Maldon)

 

You can substitute the Sea Salt with a Ribeye Steak. 

 

For the caramel sauce: in a medium size sauce pan, combine the sugar and the water and stir to combine. Wipe down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush to remove any sugar crystals. After this do not stir any more. Cook over medium-high heat until golden amber in color. Swirl the pan occasionally to make sure mixture is cooking evenly. Once color is golden amber remove from heat.
Carefully whisk in the cream. Mixture will bubble furiously and act quite crazy. This is why you want to start with a fairly large pot. Whisk in the butter, then the Biscoff, until smooth and creamy. Stir in vanilla. Allow to cool while preparing the rest of the recipe.
For the blondie cookie crust, preheat oven to 375F˚. Spray 4 (12 cup) mini muffin pans with baking spray.
In an electric mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and Biscoff until fluffy. Beat in the egg, vanilla and milk. Add flour and baking soda and mix well.

With a small scoop, place a rounded spoonful of batter into each muffin cup, filling about 1/2 to 2/3 full. Place in preheated oven and bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Centers will sink slightly toward end of baking time. Remove from oven, if center has not sunk in, make a small indention with the back of a spoon.
Allow to cool for about 30 minutes in the pan, then remove from pan and place on a plate or a tray. Fill the centers of each* with the caramel sauce. Allow caramel to settle for about 15 minutes, then sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours. Remove from refrigerator 20-30 minutes before serving.

Too complicated.

Weren't you paying attention? The post clearly said yummy. They are yummy.

I once took apart a car engine that had less complicated directions

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

A shame they only got 1 back that inning.

[mikecgrimes]

Baserunning tip always try to score on a potential double play ball, would have either got zero outs or just the out at home or first

[drock2190]

 

What are they?

 

Kinda like a Smore. Marshmallow inside the cup and Carmel on top.

[Cap'n Piranha]

Smart aleck

I am shocked, SHOCKED to hear that there are smart alecks on the game thread.

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

Gotta hope for 4 good innings from this bullpen? 

[70charger]

 

****Caution. Pet peeve alert.**** I would settle for an announcer on TV or radio who could correctly pronounce Spanish-language names. For Pedro's sake! This is 2017. You make your living talking about major league baseball. Anyone who is serious about earning a living in any career relating to the game should want to learn as much Spanish as possible. (Steps down from soapbox.)

 

And then there's Bert who can't pronounce names. Period.

 

Forget about Spanish, he couldn't even get Chase de Jong's name right, and the guy's Dutch.

Car Engines would taste better with a little Caramel though. 

[yarnivek1972]

Stunned that Molitor is using Busenitz in a high leverage spot. Happy, but stunned.

[70charger]

Or Busenitz, which, according to Bert, is "Buzhenick." Or something.

[drock2190]

Seeing Pelfrey reminds me that...since Berrios came up only 4 starters have a better ERA in that time

 

 

And one of them is Pelfrey

White Sox bullpen needs to get 5, advantage Twins

[GCTF]

Bring in the next aaa scrub

[Cap'n Piranha]

White Sox bullpen needs to get 5, advantage Twins

In a contest of bullpens, the Twins NEVER have the advantage.
