On Foursquare Monopoly Explained

Is "20 venues you hang out at" meant to be a clarification of "20 venues you hang out with," or are venues I hang out "with" vs. "at" two separate things? Preposition help, plz.

On Who Are You Awl?

Came for the potato latkes, stayed for the bourbon balls.

PS the NYT example comment is in some ways the best thing I've read all day.

On Half Baked: Kentucky Derby Bourbon Balls!

I made these on Tuesday, EXACTLY like you you make them! One suggestion--if you chill the dough for a couple of hours before the ball-making, they ball up quite nicely and un-messily.

On Half Baked: Snow Day Cookies

I just made these cookies, and they're incredible. I've been looking for the magical crispy-outside-chewy-inside recipe forever!!! I feel like if you went and stood on a corner somewhere and just handed out these cookies, your lonely days would be over in, like, 2 seconds.

On Bitters! There Are Bitters!

That celery bitters is the best thing ever added to alcohol, ever. Add a little to a dry gin martini (twist, not olive), and it's exactly what I imagine the rainwater on Pandora tastes like.
