one brainwashing to go please (lg15 12 of 12)

so it's over. and i'm thinking i could use a nice healthy dose of some of the stuff daniel got before the miss me? video. after all, it did wonders for danny b, just think what it could do for me...




i'm far too exhausted to even pretend to have a recipe for this one. i live in new york for fucks sake, the pizza came from the pizzeria on the corner and the ice cream is ben & jerry's from the bodega on the other corner. and here's some virtual spin art to seal the deal.

i'll return to my regularly scheduled gourmet blogging tomorrow and see the rest of you lonelycrackers on the interwebs on monday!!

the snack that smiles back (lg15 11 of 12)

it's best to try and think positive at times like these. but even if bree survives the ceremony she's going to need a fair bit of deprogramming. in fact, i think i'm going to be in need of some deprogramming myself after spending nearly 12 hours straight at the computer today. i'm reminded of an interesting technique that sarah introduced in the bedside manner video.



anti-cult goldfish crackers (by skyisempty)
  • 1 bag of pepperidge farm cheddar flavored goldfish crackers

purchase goldfish crackers from your local convenience store and feed them to either yourself or any other recent vicitims of mind control or brainwashing.



when accompanied by a soft scratching under the chin (such as one would pet a ferret) this technique has been shown to have startling results.

tea time (lg15 10 of 12)

sooooo.... bree might be dead? everyone is freaking out. sounds like it's time to calm the nerves with a spot of tea.



in oh, the places you'll go daniel and rebecca shared a pot of tea. but seeing what's happened to the TAAG today, i'm not about to go making any order recipes anytime soon. plus, have you noticed that it's 90-something degrees outside today?

order-free iced tea (by debbie)
heat water in kettle until it comes to a rolling boil. pour boiling water over teabags in teapot and steep until tea has reached desired strength. allow teapot to cool on counter for several minutes then pour tea into a large plastic cup and place in the freezer for approximately one hour.



remove tea from freezer and pour into a new glass over ice. add honey to sweeten to taste.

so yummy it can almost distract you from a teenager dying in some sort of pseudo-medical cult blood letting ceremony.

whoa, sour (lg15 9 of 12)

if the creator's aren't above a bit of product placement, then neither am i.

and what better time than 20 minutes into the ceremony when we're all wondering if bree is dead to plug some gum!



and not just any gum, new ice breakers sours gum! bree chewed these in the truckstop reunion video.



i personally prefer the box with berry splash, strawberry, and raspberry lemonade; though they come in other flavors as well. the recommended serving size is two pieces. you can try more than that if you dare, but you risk having a complete overload of sourocity.

lonelycheese & lonelycrackers (lg15 8 of 12)

okay it's 20 minutes until the ceremony's supposed to happen, jonas has been stabbed, and sarah still hasn't arrived with the compound.

so what better time to sit down and relax with a recipe that spencer showed us in the bree solution.

cheese and crackers (by LAlabrat)
  • 1 box of crackers
  • 1 block of cheese


arrange crackers on your plate in any quantity/pattern you like. i used TLC's roasted garlic & thyme party crackers and placed five on my plate because i thought they looked purdy that way. slice enough cheese (i used a low fat cheddar) to equally cover all of the crackers. ideally all of this should be done with telekinesis or stop motion animation, but feel free to use your hands if necessary.



best served with pouches of capri sun.

play with your food (lg15 7 of 12)

here's a fun snack that can double as a game too (as gemma taught us in her very first video nut kills man).



squirrel, nut, man (by gemmers19)
  • 1 container of mixed nuts
  • 1 willing squirrel
  • 1 friend with a nut allergy
toss all ingredients together and see who kills whom first.



the fun never ends!

i like donuts (lg15 6 of 12)

donuts have made several appearance in lg15 videos. jonas longed for one in the unthinkable happened, daniel stole one in let's play doctor, sarah declared her fondness for them (for the second time) in entertaining myself, and spencer ate one for breakfast in his car during i'm here to help.



this recipe is much easier than stealing a donut from a nurse's station. simply walk or drive to the nearest dunkin donuts and purchase a donut with chocolate frosting. et voila! dessert doesn't get much simpler than that!
