How did I make it like 40 years on this planet before anyone told me about harissa?

All y'all are fired

@regehr Looking at the ingredient list, I make food with that combination of stuff frequently, but I'll have to try this sauce

@ricci whole foods has it. they also carry a whole-grain mustard that I -- quite embarrassingly -- don't put on anything but instead sneak small spoonfuls of until it is gone

@regehr @ricci Have you seen the Maille store in Paris?? They will hand you a spoon and let you taste anything!

@irene @regehr @ricci There is also the Mustard Museum in Mt Horeb, Wisconsin... but it seems less likely that you will randomly find yourself there.

@dan @irene @regehr @ricci The mustard museum in mount Horeb is a national treasure. Along with the bar The Grumpy Troll. It used to have an amusement park called "Little Norway". My dad grew up 20 minutes from there can you tell?

@dan @irene @regehr @ricci discuss.systems roadtrip? start in seattle with a bus and pick up the utah folks along the way?

@kstatz12 @regehr @irene @ricci Reminds me of the time I checked in for a flight to China with a large box for checked luggage.
"What's in the box?"
"Ranch dressing, mostly."

(Irene's grandmother really likes ranch, ok‽)

@dan @kstatz12 @regehr @irene My dad once took a car alternator through carry-on luggage. They asked him some questions at the x-ray machine, but they let him through.

@ricci @dan @kstatz12 @irene a few months after 9/11 I sat next to a guy flying overseas with a suitcase full of phase-change reference thermometers, each of which looked basically exactly like a pipe bomb. he had stories.

@regehr @ricci @kstatz12 @irene Other strange things I have found myself traveling with:
- a bone-in prime rib roast
- $5000 in Sacagawea dollar coins

@ricci @regehr @kstatz12 @irene Those were dried beans!

But please feel free to assume that it was a PC full of beans scenario like this:

@irene @ricci @kstatz12 @regehr @dan I thought I’d be okay watching this on mute with subtitles while my wife was rocking the baby to sleep but now I’m crying and my sides are aching from the effort not to snort-cackle
