The Big Bang Theory 10.2



The guys meet with the scary military Colonel who, an engineer himself, is impressed with Howard being the brains behind the project. Sheldon was told not to speak but at this insult to his chosen career, he can't take it and promises to deliver the prototype in two months and smaller than they currently have it. This annoys Leonard and Howard till they see their new work space.

Meanwhile Bernadette is angry that word slipped out at work concerning her pregnancy and is worried that she'll lose her big promotion. Penny and Amy do their best to cheer her up.

The Big Bang Theory 10:1



The Big Bang Theory season 10 picks up whee season 9 left off - more precisely, the day after the gang gets together at dinner with Leonard's estranged parents. Leonard's father and Sheldon's mother left the restaurant together and turned off their phones, causing stress and drama for their sons and amusement for Penny. The next morning there is an awkward breakfast gathering wherein Sheldon asks some pointed questions, as is fitting his character. Meanwhile, Penny goes off to the airport and picks up her parents and brother. This lets us meet her mother and brother for the first time and they are quite entertaining.

And while all that family wedding drama is going on, Howard {still freaked out about the Air Force emailing him} gets a mysterious visitor.

All in all, a very fun start to the tenth season. I'm kinda surprised they did it this way, giving Penny and Leonard two weddings and not fast-forwarding through Bernadette's pregnancy to when she has the baby but we'll see how this all plays out.

A Super Upsetting Cookbook About Sandwiches Book Review

26893754Title: A Super Upsetting Cookbook About Sandwiches

Author: Tyler Kord

Genre: Nonfiction, Cookbook, Sandwiches, Food, Humor,

Plot: Kord is the chef and owner of No. 7 Sub sandwich shop in New York and has his own unique cooking style, coupled with amusing ramblings on life, politics and food {just to name a few}. Teaming up with a very patient editor {we can assume anyways}, Kord presents to us his first cookbook entirely on unique sandwiches and boy, what sandwiches these are!

Divided into the following categories of Beef, Chicken, Sausage, Broccoli/Cauliflower/Asparagus, Muchin, Fried Things with Gooey Sauces, Seafood Explosions, Vegetable Purees, Meatloaf, and Veggie Burgers along with three additional categories for things to put into the sandwiches, this is a very well laid out book with lots of wonderful pictures to accompany the tasty recipes. So fry up some broccoli, put on some music and make an amazing sandwich.

Likes/Dislikes: While homeschooling moms will and should take a marker to the foul language scattered about before letting their junior chefs delve in, this book was overall very good and hilarious. Many of the recipes looked delicious, especially Chutzpah Express and Bacon Von Braunhut. I haven't yet made one of these recipes but when I next go grocery shopping, I'll hunt down the ingredients and hopefully try something new and delicious.

Rating: PG-15 and up, mainly for reading level and language.
