On the BA podcast this week I gushed over my Highly Recommend for the Joan (pictured above). It’s a glass of wine at The Riddler, a delightful champagne bar, filled to the rim. What else do you need to know? Related, I ranted about the stupid, confusing proposed wine tariff that could result in a 100 PERCENT tax on imported European wines (and other stuff—tinned fish! Cheese! Olive oil!). If you ever buy wine, you should care. You don’t want a $20 bottle suddenly $40, do ya? The New York Times said there could be “disastrous ripple effects” as a result. The only ripple effects I want to see are the ones in my wine glass, filled to the top.

There’s a new Girl Scout cookie this year. Lemon-Ups are lemon tea cookies with positive affirmations stamped on them, like I AM A LEADER. As someone who prefers more of a supporting role in life, I’d be fine with tepid affirmations like, THAT SEEMS FINE. Or IT WASN’T YOUR FAULT. But maybe that’s why they didn’t hire me to write them. There’s always next year—hey, that’d be a good one!

The Kardashian-West house staff prepared their pantry and walk-in fridge for Kim’s seemingly impromptu kitchen tour on Instagram this week? She wanted to prove wrong any “refrigerator shamers” that worried there wasn’t any food in their house. Ah yes, what we needed: proof two celebrities are absurdly rich, multiple fridges and pantries overfloweth with fresh produce and snacks. Glad we cleared that up. I love transparency. “Plant-based tacos are my favorite!” she captioned one pic. Honestly, same.
Unnecessary food meme of the week
Unnecessary food feud of the week
What was the rutabaga question all about, Chaey? “I was going to make a recipe with rutabaga in it. They’re impossible to tell apart from a turnip on the outside, but apparently they taste different,” she said. “...I’m not gonna make that recipe.” Carla Lalli Music elaborated on her reply: “Rutabaga is the least desirable root in the cold storage bin, IMHO.” “omg love a rutabag!” slacked Mol’ Baz, adding: “BIG ASS TURNIPS” “I like them!!!!” Sarah Jampel, who “roots for the underdog” said, with four exclamation points and no pun intended. They’re mild and sweet, not unlike a parsnip, she explained. In a segment about unloved root vegetables on the BA podcast this week, Brad Leone optimistically claims you can walk right by them in any grocery store, which I’d say is factually inaccurate. “Rutabaga thoughts?” I asked Andy Baraghani. “Don’t know her,” he replied.
Look how good these look tho!
