How people say “tape” these days when they mean record. Right now it’s because Omarosa “taped” John Kelly and heard a “tape” of Trump using the n-word. There are no tapes - who uses tape any more? - there are recordings.
For some reason it doesn’t bother me that we still say “dialing” a phone, though phones don’t have dials.

Huge blueberries. Had to cut most of the bluebs in the pint in half before I made muffins morning. My own fault for being too cheap to buy the wild berries I guess.
Damn, we're in a tight spot!

Nah. They grow blueberries in this town, they are not the same thing as those scary blobs. But be my guest by all means. Don't come crying to me when your DNA gets all mutated by them though.

Here's my version of Jordan Marsh Blueberry Muffins.
Th recipe ran in the Boston Globe about 15 years ago and they claimed it came from the original baker.
The high initial temp, dusting the berries and TB of batter before the berries are added are variations I've picked up over the years.
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
2 cups unsifted AP flour
1 1/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk (buttermilk is better)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 to 2 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (wild if available) dusted with flour (helps to keep berries from sinking)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sugar (for top of muffins)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F. (Drop to 375 after 6 minutes baking time - early high heat promotes rising.)
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy; add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Add vanilla.
In a second bowl whisk together all dry ingredients.
Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk to the creamed butter and sugar mixture - begin and end with dry ingredients.
Place TB of batter in each muffin tin before berries are added to mixture.
Add berries and stir in gently by hand.
Spray a 12 muffin baking pan with Baker's Joy (or other non-stick spray). Fill greased muffin cups.
Sprinkle sugar on top of unbaked muffins.
Preheat oven to 425 bake for 6 minutes then drop temperature to 375°F and cook for 18 minutes. Cool in pan. Run a knife around the edge of each muffin after several minutes to free it from the pan and cool on wire racks.Damn, we're in a tight spot!

I literally just came back from the farmstand, I was behind an elderly couple from Oregon. I know because when they were asked if they wanted a bag they said, "Oh no, we're from Oregon, we don't need a bag, we brought our own. Reduce, re-use, recycle, that's what we do there."
So I'm guessing your berries are poisonous.
*Dammit I shoulda bought some blueberries.

American Italians that call sauce gravy wtf. 1st time that annoyed my ears was in an episode of the Sopranos. Gravy is flour and drippings.
How the fuck can a tomato sauce ever be called gravy.
Is that a jersey thing because my brother in-law from Brooklyn never ever used that term or knew better not to.
Forgot about it

It is called gravy when a tomato sauce is thickened (usually cooked down with paste). My Grandfather came off the boat, didn't speak English well, and it's gravy.
You do know that Indians call the liquid part of a curry "gravy" too?
And aren't you from Canada? WTF do you know?
