We all are. Mine is making me yearn for death... but to cure myself of this spout of the blues, I've made tiramisu. Lots and lots of it. With almost a litre of cognac. You should try it. Works wonders.

I should. I am having a pity party right now though, I think I will go eat some cookies and watch Star Trek.
Watch Star Trek or "watch Star Trek"?

What do you think a bucket full of tiramisu is if not a pity party? Have a wank, love, and it'll all seem less sucky.

Get in the kitchen, woman!

That's just deluded.It's the truth.

Get in the kitchen, woman!The kitchen is a mess. I'm not what one could possibly call a good housekeeper. Once I'm rich I'll have a cleaning man come in.

My Tiramisu rocks, though. :cool:

It's the truth.

Nazi "truth", that is.

dam i get hated an i did nothing to get hated for

Yes you did, you learned how to make Tiramisu.

I WANT to learn to make Tiramisu. I hate you all. I don't have the fuzziest idea where the slip of paper with the recipe on it is, but I'm sure Fass will happily give you his. What with that litre of Cognac his is also a lot more potent than mine. How fitting. :D

I'm impaired on that issue. I just can't learn to make something with a recipe. I just end with a pool of sludge. I actually need to see someone doing it, and then get that someone to help me during the process.

I suppose I need inspiration for cooking and baking...

Yes you did, you learned how to make Tiramisu.

the only things i cook are steak, chips, 2min noodles, i have no idea what in Mars name what Tiramisu is

"All of the above". I was created at the Big Bang, which occurred basically everywhere that is now Earth, Venus, Mars, the sun, Andromeda, etc., so I win.

Also, I don't like tiramisu. I could probably make it anyway, but I wouldn't eat it...

You can't Godwin anything with Germans in it.

Since my technique is amenable to the incorporation of kitchenware and utensils, helping out with the culinary clean-up is just the Swedish thing to do.

Sure. *pats*

You're frisking me for the recipe, aren't you?

sorry honey, I was just being........I am having a bad day. :(

Hopefully it ends well.

Or even New Jersey.

You can't Godwin anything with Germans in it. So any thread I post in can never be Godwinned? Why, I should be an official talisman of some sort here then! I should get paid for that, too. Generously.

You're frisking me for the recipe, aren't you?Not really I wasn't, no. Just feeling you up.

But since I just read in IR's wiki link about Marsala wine and rum (both of which I don't use) maybe having a Swedish version with a litre of cognac in it couldn't hurt.

:( I'm sorry.

I have that "this is hopeless I am tired of dealing with life in general, wouldn't it be better if I fell asleep and didn't wake up" crappy feeling.

I usually always use marsala and rum, but I didn't have those in and cognac had to do. Not bad at all.

This has to be the simplest tiramisu recipe I've ever invented. Requires no proper zabaglione because I was too impatient to get a bain-marie going and only has the ingredients I had in my cupboard. Anyway:

2 eggs, 4 table spoons of sugar, 200g of mascarpone, how many table spoons or hectolitres of cognac you want, 1½ decilitres of cold espresso (strong), 12 savoirdi biscuits and cocoa.

Separate the eggs and whip the yokes and the sugar until airy, add the mascarpone a little at a time until you have a smooth and creamy mass. Flavour with the cognac, whip the egg whites and fold them into the cognac-flavoured mascarpone mass to get a sort of cream. Dip 6 of the biscuits in the coffee and put them in serving dishes and then cover with half of the cream. Dip the rest of the biscuits in the coffee and put them on top of that and cover with the rest of the cream. Cool in the fridge for as long as you can stand and sprinkle some cocoa over the tiramisu before serving.

Simple and surprisingly good, although not purist and will probably get you killed in Italy, but then again what won't?

Thanks, I'll bookmark that!

Although, if you allow, I'd rather pass on whipping the yokes, I might hit an ox by accident and I'd rather have my Tiramisu cruelty-free.

Umm, "yoke" is an accepted alternative to "yolk" (http://www.webster.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?sourceid=Mozilla-search&va=yolk).

Never mind that I meant to write "yolk" and this damned laptop keyboard foiled my intent - the lesson to be learnt here is that even when I mess up, I somehow end up being right in the end after all. :p

That isn't superfluous. "Yoke" -> "yokes". Or are you confused as to how one pluralises in English? And confused about the lesson learnt here: even when I mess up, I end up being right.

Urmm...

"Yoke" is not the correct spelling of "Yolk". It's a common misspelling of it.

A "yoke" is a structure put on top of an ox to allow it to carry things, or to facilitate a plough being attached to an ox, or a pair or oxen.

And that's just one of the many things which the noun "yoke" defines - there are also boating terms involving it.

But not one of them is to do with eggs.

I especially liked the part in your post about how it was indeed a mere misspelling, not a "variant", but I thought you were operating on the assumption that neither Fass nor I knew the difference between yolk and yoke and after spending the last few hours bashing him for it I just couldn't let that stand. ;)

Maybe I'll give him a piece of consolation chocolate, to make his spelling improve. It's psychology. *nods* :)

You're really making me spell it out again?

And you're making me tell you once more that: a.) yoke is an accepted variant; and b.) that even when I mess up, I end up being right. Not only by "yoke" not being wrong in any sense, but also that I subconsciously caught my crappy laptop keyboard trying to play a trick on me and corrected it to be a perfectly acceptable spelling. Or are you who persists in writing "color" going to start trying to tell anyone off about variant spellings?

Chambers Dictionary says "you are wrong". And that really is the be-all and end-all for the English language.

The only "be-all and end-all for the English language" is that there is no "be-all and end-all for the English language". Thus, if MW states it as a variant, that's good enough for me and none of you can credibly claim my usage wrong. :p
