This or That

[Fading Fast]

Toaster - the most used appliance in our house. Love toast and can't wait to toast each side individually.

cinnamon-raison bread or just cinnamon bread or just raison bread (a very difficult and nuanced this, that or the other thing)?

 

[1mach1]

I must say, I don't eat any of those on a regular basis, and not sure if I ever had just cinnamon bread. That said, I have never turned down a piece of cinnamon raisin bread. So, I guess that's where I am at.....cinnamon raisin bread (with butter).

Fresh water fish or salt water fish? (to eat, that is)

 

[LizzieMaine]

Salt. I grew up on mackerel, haddock, and cod. And smelts. And sardines.

Fried fish or baked fish?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Fried!

Potatoe-mash with fried-herrings or with rollmops-herrings?

 

[1mach1]

Potato mash with fried herrings (not really a fan of the rollmops).

Sausage links or patties?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Patties.

Pussycat

or "Simon's Cat"?

 

[1mach1]

Simons Cat (I think thats the cute cartoon videos you post here, right?)

Grind your own coffee, or get the store to grind it?

 

[greatestescaper]

Grind your own! The flavor leaves ground beans in as short as 12 hours! Or so I've heard.

Moka Pot or Drip?

 

[vitanola]

Dripolator, if I had to choose, though a good Percolator isn't too bad, and a Vacuum pot is both quick and really excellent.

Peruvian or Columbian?

 

[1mach1]

Peruvian

Earl Grey or English Breakfast?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Earl Grey.

Bath with conifer-foambath or quick, time-saving shower??

 

[greatestescaper]

Time-saving shower.

Straight razor or disposable razor?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Disposable.

Greybread (rye and wheat) or whitebread?

 

[LizzieMaine]

White bread for toast, rye bread for pastrami sandwiches.

Gulden's mustard or French's mustard?

 

[Fading Fast]

Goulden's - a heavier hit of spice and burn.

Mustard or something else (you pick) on pretzels?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Don't know them, but I take french sounding mustard.

Dire Straits or Mark Knopfler solo?

 

[vitanola]

Don't know them, but I take french sounding mustard.

Dire Straits or Mark Knopfler solo?

Where are the twanging banjos and moaning saxophones?

 

[Fading Fast]

Dire Straits (but I believe they got overhyped as a "cool" persons band, as a band for those "really into music")

Rolling Stones guitarist: Brian Jones, Mick Taylor or Ron Wood?

 

[2jakes]

Brian Jones.

Louis Armstrong or Miles Davis?

 

[Fading Fast]

Brian Jones.

Louis Armstrong or Miles Davis?

Wow, that is a darn hard one. I'll give the nod to Armstrong in part because I know his stuff better and in part because he pops up in several movies I love. But I have nothing but praise for both.

"Jolene*" original Dolly Parton version or the slowed-down version?


* One of the greatest examples of total surrender and a cri du croeur for pity all in less than three minutes of lyrics
