Indiana Jones Crisp-Mint M&Ms: Meh
I'm still going to try them if I ever find them! (I've checked Walgreens, Longs, Safeway . . .) I liked the crispy ones they made a while ago, and the mint makes 'em sound even better, to me.

I'm still trying to find the crispy mint Indy M&Ms!
Irish Ice Cream Soda
Have you ever tried making beer ice cream? I have an Alice Medrich recipe for Guinness Ice Cream and am thinking about making it for this weekend. I wonder if it will actually taste good?

Millennium's chocolate almond midnight. But it's so complicated I've only made it twice!
When good people do "bad" things in your kitchen…
Wow, I am pretty lucky. My husband has learned to put the few things he doesn't know where they go on the counter after emptying the dishwasher (which he always does, even though I have to fill it, or else there will only be room for about six items in it). The one thing that bothers me is when he measures some water and then throws the measuring cup in the sink into a soaking greasy pot or to get something else rinsed on it. It was still clean!
Michael Pollan's Twelve Commandments for Serious Eaters: Can You Live By Them?
He actually said "great-grandmother," not grandmother. And he doesn't mean to exclude things like sushi--it's made of fish and rice, which is obviously food. What isn't "food" are basically the items referred to in #2--things that aren't whole foods.
What do you do with buttermilk?
How long does buttermilk last? I always use mine way past the expiration date. Is that okay? It never smells any different.

I was disappointed by the shrek m&ms so I will probably sit this one out. Still, I like the hieroglyphs

Saw Indy tonight and the theater didn't sell the Indy M&Ms. Guess it's back to the grocery store to get more...

Oops, meant to add, and aww, I feel special :)

Ahh, that's probably why the opposite reaction from me. Coconut is a huge no-no, but mint and (dark) chocolate is heaven... mmm. Funny cuz I don't like mint otherwise, it's too sharp.
I've been around, just been struggling to stay sane and keep up with everything :) I should be around more often now though!
Indiana Jones Crisp-Mint M&Ms: Meh
I have been on the hunt for both the m&m's and snickers bar, but have not found them anywhere!! Will continue to search, hopefully I will find them this weekend. My husband thought it was quite funny last night as I was going to a few different stores looking for them

So as soon as you posted about the coconut-flavored Indy Snickers, I was fiercely attacked by vicious cravings. I NEEDED that Indy bar. NEEDED. Of course I found one, ate it, and now I am addicted. I was seriously thinking about buying whole cases of them and stockpiling before the inevitable discontinuation.
Blast you, evil blogger, for addicting me. *shakes fist*
One thing: the wrapper advertises "a hint of exotic spice." What, pray tell, is that? Cinnamon? I could only taste the coconut. Which was delicious.

We were at the store lastweekend and the husband, a HUGE Indiana Jones fan, tossed a bag of the mint M&Ms into the cart. I looked at him as if he'd sprouted another head and said "Do you realize those are MINT?!?" He promptly returned them to the display from whence they came as he abhors anything mint flavored. He's a fan but he has his limits. I will definitely hunt down the peanut version for him.
I'm really wishing my chocolate aversion was done. I may stash a coconut-laden Snickers in the freezer with my Cadbury mini-eggs so I can consume both post-partum...
@simon- why do you even bother to read this site? Seriously. If the content bothers you so much just stop visiting.

"But they're limited edition! Someday they'll be worth MILLIONS!"

Okay, that's better.

I love the packaging that features a Harrison Ford either from the 1980s or a current image photoshopped to make it seem as though it's from the 80s.
@simon: it's just candy.
