Another set of three things

findingfriends recently:
spaghetti al carbonara
Quite a bit more fat than I usually care for with my pasta. Alfredo sauce, particularly the debased versions served up at many places that want to have pasta on their menu, or want you to think they're Italian (takes direct aim at corporate chains), is something else I feel the same way about.
The name of the dish is interesting. Marcella Hazan, whose cookbook Classic Italian Cooking I treasure, includes some history with her recipe for the dish. It was apparently what the coal miners (carbonari) commonly ordered after making their deliveries.
WoW
You're probably referencing Worlds of Warcraft here. I never got much into computer gaming. Spending all day staring into a computer monitor and trying to figure out what the code I just wrote was actually doing, and why that didn't necessarily match up with what it was supposed to do, left me interested in doing something that wasn't just more staring into a screen and pushing buttons.
But I can't see that string of characters without thinking about Teddy Ruxpin.
Toy Story 4
Saw the first three. Haven't seen this one yet. Looking forward to it.
