That sounds like a very poor example of a joke. Your sense of humor and timing are way off. Please stay away from comedy - and giving medical advice!

I defiantly know what you mean, but I think it's the wine that takes
away that cream cheese flavor. Most recipes don't use wine, I
adapted this from two similar recipes. Sour cream actually sucks
flavor out of this dish.
 
If I was still adamant about no cream cheese, I'd probably try that
Mexican non-sour cream. Or just regular cream and thicken it
slightly.

Regular cream and a little cornstarch slurry.
 
Come to think of it, can I make creme friache with buttermilk ice
cubes, or does freezing kill the culture? My last batch left a waxy
film in my mouth from the thickeners in the cream. I saw some odd
one on the label last time (not a gum).

Very nice, especially compared to our apple trees.

Very pretty and do you make crabapple jelly?

Doesn't that need more sugar than crab apples because they're that
sour?

Some years I do and I usually store the juice in the freezer to make the
jelly in mid-winter. I do the same for the redcurrants from those bushes
to the right of the tree.

It takes a lot but then, so do most jams and jellies. The flavour of the
jelly is still quite tart.

I love that stuff. My mother used to make it regularly. It really stunk
up the house when it was cooking, but it was worth it. I grabbed some at
a local apple farm last winter, and it was every bit as good as I
remembered.

I am under the impression that the amount of sugar in a jelly or jam
recipe is more about getting it to cook and set properly than about
sweetening the fruit.
 
I used to make a lot of different jams and some jellies. I laid off
most of them because I was able to get them at produce stands cheap
enough that it was not worth it to make them. I am hopping for a good
crop of black currants this year and plan to make some jam with them.
That is one jam that is hard to find, and I prefer the jam to the jelly.

I'm not saying that would be bad, but it was already perfect. Keep
your paws off it and just eat it.

God no.

My mother-in-law would use chopped up raw oyster or octopus when making kim chee. That was an old-style, hard-core, way to make kim chee. My guess is that it promotes fermentation. Near as I can tell, the oysters and octopus would just melt away, leaving no trace behind - at least, I've never seen kim chee with raw oysters in it.

Typical meat eater reactions. If you can't be perfect, you'll be
criticised by people who won't even try, who don't give a shit, and
who have no morals whatsoever. Strange.

Everybody's constantly talking about what they eat here. What they
like, what they don't like, what they only like during a full moon,
what they only like prepared in such and such a way etc.

Because we kill them. To eat them.

A typical reaction of someone who does not think that animals will die of
starvation if they overpopulate.

That makes so little sense I don't know where to start :)

What I do find odd, is you can't take a cab back either. I had to take
a cab to get Don and back once (car in shop).
