No like.  Eggn.og is like drinking pancake batter. 

And a SIL puts eggnog in her pancake batter.  M/zeit says she is going to give it a try too.  Last week it was banana pancakes with walnuts pieces.  This week was French toast.  Not much you can do with that.  (well of course other than dust with conf. sugar, slather with butter, drench in maple syrup.)  :drool:

The exploding turkey story.  Anybody buying that?  You can't make a turkey airtight, DUmmie.  I suppose a harmless tall tale has its place, but if any DUmmie believed him, that's pretty gullible. 

maybe they got the idea from Christmas Vacation?

Back in the day, pressure cookers weren't equipped with automatic pressure locks. We had a neighbor who opened one while some pressure remained. I don't remember her being burned, but there were beans on her kitchen ceiling.

I have a very old ('50's) Mirro Matic Pressure Cooker which is sitting on my bench  that blew the lead (blowout) seal and covered the kitchen ceiling with beef stew a couple years ago.  It was a thrilling experiencefor all involved to say the very least.  Believe it or not I think I have a new seal for it somewhere.  Back in the day they came with a spare seal and gasket. 

And now on to the "He blew a seal"  jokes.

That's the brand! Maybe the seal blew out on our neighbor's instead of opening the lid.

I was just a little kid at the time, and I know everyone laughed, so she wasn't burned.

Those old ones didn't have a top that rocked back and forth to maintain steady pressure.

They had a stationary top with a little rod that extended, with scribe marks to indicate pressure.

You had to regulate heat carefully to maintain the desired pressure.
