"Vat of eggnog flavoring explodes at New Jersey laboratory"

"Workers were reportedly crafting a new recipe for the seasonal treat flavoring when it erupted."
“There was a big vat that had this product in it,” Totowa Fire Marshal Allen Del Vecchio told ABC 7. “What we're trying to determine is what ignited this product that made the explosion.”

 
Makes you appreciate the dangerous sacrifices that many Americans routinely make in the name of our discriminatory taste buds. These guys are heroes. Though, I doubt Michelle will approve them for medals. They were making fattening delicious eggnog.

I have an English recipe for eggnog from the early 19th century. You get a good sized bowl and dump in a bunch of wine, brandy, gin, milk and raw eggs. You cover it with a cloth and leave it to sit in a warm place for about a week.

As authentic and facinating as that sounds, I've never had the courage to actually give it a try.

I'll get my pastuerized eggnog from the refrigerated dairy section of my local supermarket, thank you very much.

First, Obama sends the IRS against conservative groups. Then, Michelle sends the CIA against the eggnog makers. Who among us is safe?

That could only improve the stench from that Godforsaken hell hole. Too bad it was contained before the entire place was inundated.

On the other hand, even cloves can't cover up the smell of urine.

Would it be insensitive to say they got 'egg on their face'?

Sixty, Totowa is not so bad. It is not like Elizabeth. They had the Thomas' English Muffin outlet store there where you could get Entenmann's Rasberry Danish Twist for half price.

This is a good eggnog recipe (you need fresh high quality eggs from a producer you can trust)

I like eggnog. Cheesheads have their version called Tom an Jerry's. It is a frozen, concentrated, eggnog concoction that you mix w/ brandy[of course], rum and hot water. It is topped by nutmeg. I guess it's one of those things you have to grow up w/ to appreciate. But, I dutifully serve it to the inlaws every Christmas eve. Puts the mother-in-law to sleep, so I can't complain.

ndspinelli said...

Yeah, Don't be hatin' on Totowa. I fucked a girl from there. She was a nursing student. Nursing students were great lays.

So apparently ndspinelli got some cake (or pie) in Totowa!

It's true that all the other tribes looked down on the Totawas, them being New Jersey Indians and all. There was only one tribe lower on the Indian totem pole: the Gowanus Indians. The Totawas could always say, "You think we stink?....."

The thing about nurses is that they've been stripped of illusion. Plus, they're hurried. The perfect combo for action.

Nurses just want to play doctor.

Evi, I defiled the Totowan lass in Newburgh, NY. We would take road trip sex excursions there on weekends, like it was Thailand. Mount Saint Mary's, so they were also Catholic. We long hairs would be competing w/ West Point guys for poontang. We had a better batting average, we came bearing weed!

ndspinelli said...

Evi, Thanks for the NYT link. You know Wi. very well.

Lem got out of Jersey in the nick of time.

Michael Haz said...

The mafia runs the eggnog trade in Jersey?

Not surprised.

Sadly, that is not the case. I'm still here, in NJ. The car that will take me to Florida is still getting fixed.

I'll keep you guys posted when I leave.

The Dude said...

Yeah, those old American cars from the '50s that your people love so much are just not as dependable as they were FIFTY FREAKIN' YEARS AGO!

Oh, right, you aren't Cuban. My bad.

Speakin' of which, what's up with Castro - wasn't that long ago he was bleeding out the one portion of the digestive tract you can't mention on television, now he is as good as new, still dictatin' and preventing me from getting a nice cigar at the corner store.

Which we don't actually have around here, but there is a tobacco store run by some terrorists a few miles from here, just sayin'...

ampersand said...

To hell with free medical,Castro is held together by those guys who keep those Desotos and Packards running.

"is still getting fixed."

Obamacare strikes again!
