KenzSailing Posted March 27, 2021 #1091 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Well, here in NA, the asparagus is coming into season. Relatedly, I have discovered how easy it is to make Hollandaise sauce in a blender. Dietetically, this is like figuring out how to construct a nuclear device in your basement. Just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should. Still... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed that unhealthy food made more accessible is a double edged sword. My hollandaise routine has two speeds though — conventional scratch and Knorr. 🤭 I really would benefit from meeting in the middle with the blender version.

NYK orders so few passenger ships relative to everything else, but they've had a bumpy ride with both inexperienced and experienced (with passenger ships) yards alike in the past. I think Symphony was the only relatively smooth one of the 4 builds between both divisions. Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
