I had some chicken stock left over from last night’s dinner, so I froze it in an ice cube tray as I often do. I noted that it filled 8 wells perfectly. Imagine my surprise, then, to find NINE frozen chicken stock cubes this morning. I guess we now know exactly how much chicken stock expands when frozen.

Debate about statistics via graffiti, seen on the commuter rail.

(the handwritten text reads: “=3/100 or 30/1000 or 0.03% — very small numbers”, to which someone added (on a sticker, no less): “No. It’s a small percentage. .03% of a large population is a *big* number.” )

I don’t care that it’s 80 degrees at 7pm. It’s September, dammit. I’m having a porter.

Green beans and long beans, together at last

But a good Jamaican goat curry from a food truck regardless.

This soup has three ingredients: fresh corn, bacon, and a small amount of butter. Served cool, it’s perfect for a warm evening.

I am taking the opportunity of this beautiful afternoon to smoke some beef heart on the grill. I am sure I am Doing It Wrong from the perspective of my friends who do this sort of thing all the time, but I guess we will be forced to eat it all to destroy the evidence.
