FYI - What the $%$%
HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup cream
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
salt to taste
pinch of cayenne pepper
pinch of paprika
1 teaspoon freshly minced parsley
Melt butter in the top of a double boiler. Stir in cream and beaten egg yolks. Whisk together. Add salt and lemon juice. Cook over boiling water in a double boiler until mixture thickens, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and beat with a whisk until light. Stir in cayenne pepper, paprika and freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
...Hollandaise sauce is an emulsion of butter and a reduction (usually made from white wine) using egg yolks as the emulsifying agent,...
I'm gonna spew.

Update #2
Alright, damn it. I'm updating this. Let's see...oddly enough, I am witnessing more Hannah Montana karaoke as I sit here. Sadly, it grows on you. At least it doesn't have the dang Jonas brothers. Man, they blow. Sad. They make millions for being mediocre. And for goodness sakes, can they get haircuts? blech
I just wrote down a list of numbers for my daughter (who is 7) so she could write down if they were odd or even. There is no way on this Earth I could be a teacher. It is driving me nuts. Odd or Even? Shit. What could be easier? She knew that when she was 5. I have no patience for it. Good mommy.
Oh, movie critic time...Watch Happy Feet! It is great. The music is fun and they are penguins who tap dance. What could be more entertaining? Seriously, try it out. I require silence from the kids when it is on. Go rent it, seriously, I mean it. Seriously.
Oh, other great movies...
Anchorman (I'm in a glass case of emotion!), (It's got bits of real panther!)
Office Space (who wouldn't like it?),
Ocean 11, 12 and 13...don't even know the plot..but damn, who cares, (Clooney, not Pitt...he's overrated).
Pee Wee's Big Adventure...If you can sit through it the first time, you will realize the genious! I saw the dinosaurs that were in that movie in California. I made my husband turn around and drive back. Called my sister from the foot of the tyrannasaurus...she loved it just like me.
Tommy Boy (God rest his soul) was greatness.
The Hunt for Red October - "The Russians don't take a piss, son, without a plan." Yes, that is a quote from the not-so-much-anymore presidential candidate Fred Thompson. I can't believe he quit!
Crap...hold on. I have to tend to the boy. Good mommy.
I'm back...
Star Wars of course. Let's rank them....Star Wars Episode 4, Star Wars Episode 5, Star Wars episode 6 (only first 30 minutes till they get out of Tatooine). The rest is a toss up because they sucked. Prequels I can do without.
Next post will feature....Shows that can't be watched without Tivo. Pins and needles!!!!
