A Squash Side Dish to Steal the Show at Your Next BBQ — Delicious Links

When perusing Pinterest and blogs, I come across and bookmark a lot of great-sounding recipes to make at a later date; some indiscriminate point in the far-off future. And then there are the recipes I know I must make immediately. This grilled balsamic squash with tomatoes and garlic scapes definitely falls into the latter category.

Level Up Your Root Vegetables with a Jam Glaze

Level Up Your Root Vegetables with a Jam Glaze

Root vegetables, like carrots and parsnips, are versatile and especially delicious when roasted. Add an unexpected twist of flavor by glazing them with jam. Since root vegetables tend to have a mild taste, you can experiment with whatever jam you have in your fridge.

You can easily make a glaze by combining 1/4 cup jam and 2 tablespoons liquid such as water, balsamic vinegar, or citrus juice. If you want a thicker glaze, use less liquid. Chef Jose Garces suggests you combine the jam glaze with other spices (like mustard or caraway seeds) for a balanced, savory dish. You’ll end up with more depth to your glazed veggies.

Prepare for a Higher Price Tag on Lobster This Summer — Food News

Eating a steamed lobster is a summer rite of passage. The bib, the seafood cracker, the little cup of melted butter — it's a whole experience.

But due to changes in water temperature, this year's Maine lobster haul will be significantly lower than in years past — meaning lobster prices are on the rise.

What's the Deal with Cat Cafes? — Smart Coffee for Regular Joes

Heard about cat cafes? Well, if not, then you're about to. Cat cafes are pretty much what they sound like: cafes with cats. Lots of cats.

No, this is not the place to take your feline friend for a coffee break. The point of cat cafes is for those that are cat-less to cozy up with a sweet, purring four-footed animal. The concept hails from Taiwan, who got its first cat cafe in 1998, but the idea quickly caught on in Japan, who has embraced the cat cafe trend. In this country alone, more than 150 cat cafes have opened over the last decade.

Watch Hot Chip Cover Bruce Springsteen’s “Dancing In The Dark”

Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment – "Sunday Candy" Video - Stereogum

Chance The Rapper has just shared a video for "Sunday Candy," a track from Surf, the upcoming Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment album. The video was directed by Austin Vesely and unfolds as an elaborate stage production done all in one take, filled with colorful sets and a whole bunch of backup dancers. Chance The Rapper and featured singer Jamila Woods factor in heavily, providing an anchor to latch onto as everything grows more theatrically chaotic around them. Watch below. Surf still doesn't have a release date.

My Hero: Punk Singer Manages To Catch Thrown Cup Of Beer While Crowdwalking, Chugs What's Left

Geekologie - Gadgets, Gizmos, and Awesome My Hero: Punk Singer Manages To Catch Thrown Cup Of Beer While Crowdwalking, Chugs What's Left

punk-rock-beer-catch.gif This is a video of David Achter de Molen, the lead singer of Dutch punk band John Coffey (named after the Green Mile character) managing to catch a cup of beer throw at him from a mile away, while crowdwalking. He then proceeds to chug what's left in the cup (who do you even throw a cup without spilling all the beer?!) and toss it aside before continuing to be the biggest badass you will see all week. I just bought all the band's albums and wrote asking if they need any roadies who are willing to work for free, and I haven't even heard a single one of their songs yet. Keep going for the whole video.

Smart Thinking: Man Sends 2,240 Bottle Caps To Bethesda In Attempt To Pre-Order Fallout 4

fallout-4-caps-2.jpg In hopes that bottle caps are an acceptable form of currency even in a non post-apocalyptic world, Imgurian GatorMacheteJr (GatorMacheteSr had a kid?!) sent 2,240 bottle caps to Bethesda in an attempt to procure a copy of Fallout 4. Obviously, this is kind of annoying because I was planning on doing the same thing because, believe it or not, I know a lot of bartenders *waits for gasp of surprise that never comes* and they literally just throw the things away whenever they open beers.
Fallout 3 was my favorite game for several years, so I made the rational choice to start saving up bottle caps. Turns out 4.5 years of undergrad and 3 years in a Master's program leads to a lot of drinking. It ended up being 11.2 pounds of bottle caps. You don't want to know how much it cost to ship it to Maryland.
As someone pointed out, not a single cap is from a Nuka Cola or Sunset Sarsaparilla. As a matter of fact, the majority appear to be from different brands of hard cider. Now, according to an estimated currency exchange rate for in-game bottle caps *punching calculator* multiply by seven, carry the one -- I estimate 2,240 caps to be valued at just over $1,000. However, given the fact these are predominately hard cider caps, that value drops to just a hair over completely worthless. And for the record, yes, I'm just jealous I didn't think of this first. Keep going for one more shot of the caps.
