Why in the hell did this lady crack one egg at a time into a small bowl just to dump that one egg into the mixing bowl right after cracking it? Aaarrrrgggghh! I bet she buys all the vowels on Wheel of Fortune after she knows the puzzle, too.

Goddammit. I was with her until the mayonnaise. Even tho I’ve never had heart of palm before. Then she smears the cake with it? My god.

I do the egg thing. It's so you can fish any shell fragments out easily.

It's a pretty common move. It saves you from accidentally adding bad eggs to a batter, spoiling all your ingredients. It also makes it easier to fish out a shell if any does fall in

Tuna and mayo isn't the worst pairing ever. But sweet pastry? Fuckouttahere.

It's too much mayo. And they put olives in it. Trust me, it's nasty.

Exactly. That's where I get hung up, too. I mean, maybe it's great....? But I'd much rather eat an asshole.

Decorating happens after Thanksgiving, but if Thanksgiving is at my house then the light trimming happens before Thanksgiving.

I love Christmas time.
