SNACK TIME: Get learned on shoofly pie, pizza is the best, ramp foraging with Jason Cichonski and Chip Roman, a more difficult way to eat ice cream, Mitt Romney's official stance on cookies, Parks & Rec drinking game!, and tea time.
- Remember when we posted about Magpie Artisan Pie Bakery & Boutique? Owner Holly Ricardi reminisces about shoofly pie and shows us how to make it. The vid is just as sweet as you'd expect. You know, I bet if you watch the vid enough times, you'll get all Pavlov's dog about shoofly pie every time you hear Nick Drake. BRB, going to listen to some Nick Drake. Want pie.
- Eating pizza is usually a very fun event, but this guy makes it even more exciting. The vid feels a little voyeuristic, but man, does kid know how to seduce a slice. You know, I bet if you watch the vid enough times, you'll get all Pavlov's dog about pizza every time you hear Prince. BRB, going to listen to some Prince. Want pie.
- Zack Morris and A.C. Slater Jason Cichonski and Chip Roman (we've officially determined that Ela chef de cuisine Billy Riddle to be Screech) document their trip to the forest for some ramp hunting. They share some tips and tricks for ramp-picking and locations to find some of the much-sought-after veggie. Don't overpick and leave some for the rest of us, will ya?
- Imagine a infomercial where a lady is trying to scoop ice cream out of the carton but it's just too dang hard. She tries microwaving it for a bit, but that just turns into a sticky mess. She throws her hands up in frustration and stops trying. Well now, for the low, low price of muffin tin, you can have single servings of ice cream without the fuss! Lifehacker shows us how to portion out ice cream for quick frozen treat on the go. Or, just go buy those little ice cream cups with the wooden sticks for spoons.
- A list of things Mitt Romney hates: Obamacare, LGBT and women's rights and cookies. Romney visited Bethel Park, Pa. this week to talk politics with residents, who brought him some cookies from a Bethel bakery. Romney questioned the quality of the cookies, saying they tasted like they were from 7-Eleven. "We wanted him to be welcomed with the best in the 'burgh, and he had no idea," said John Walsh, owner of the bakery in question. Welp, looks like you lost all those votes, Mitt.
- Videogum has created a Parks & Recreation drinking game in honor of the end of the show's hiatus. Some key times to imbibe: When Chris uses the word "literally" when Anne "shows up at the office even though she's a nurse I thought?" [Ed: This was clarified in last night's episode — she's an on-call D1! As you were.] or when someone is mean to Jerry. Videogum advises against actually playing this game for reasons I assume are that you'll probably end up obliterated drunk by the end of one episode.
- A proper lady drinking tea. Probably weed tea because I think that's what you're supposed to do today or something.
