I think he's using it as an arrow. Like "are you using X? ➡️ Use Y instead"

Does any language have a word for mixing a beverage by pouring from one vessel into another? in c/[email protected]

Interesting! Would this be similar to how you might temper a raw egg mixture into a warm soup or somesuch?

I don't mean something like "pour" or "mix" in the English language. The word should capture the idea of pouring from one vessel into another with the goal of going from a semi-heterogenous solution to a mostly-homogeneous solution.

I commonly do this to mix my cocktails. I'm not sure why, but it just seems quicker/easier than either shaking or stirring.

Thanks in advance! Just trying to figure out if it already exists before looking into making up a word for it!

I read it as an allusion to the price of everything going up. But yes, eggs.

Really?

The first verse:

The other night, dear

As I lay sleeping

I dreamt I held you in my arms

But when I woke, dear

I was mistaken

So I hung my head and I cried

I always took it to mean the person is mourning the loss of a loved one and they dreamed they were still alive.

Also, I once heard that this song was about a horse named Sunshine. 🤷‍♂️

My 13yo stepdaughter just recently started watching Gilmore Girls with her mom. What are some good things to say during their post-watch discussions that make it sound like I'm in the know? (mander.xyz)
 

If it helps, her mom and I have been married a hair over a month.
