  3. OMG! You've got a copy of the Knox Gelatin cookbook! I swear Knox would have done an entire barbecued hog in aspic if they had found a big enough mold.

  4. Aspic is a fancy word for "Do I have to swallow this puke in my mouth?" What a waste of perfectly good shrimp. You are a monkey aren't you?

  6. Can you imagine the satisfying slurping sound they make when you unmold them? And what are they sitting on, broken beer bottle glass?

  11. Oh happy day, I found it. I don't know if you've seen the Gallery of Regrettable Food, but I think it's right up your alley. Try this sequence out for starts... This is like the "Jalepeno" version of the humor here. If it's not too much, the humor goes right up to "habenero." You have been warned.

  14. I should have guessed. I suppose you're growing things in your new garden with which to garnish us, too? The humanity!
