Hasta La Gadget!

All anyone ever wanted to talk about for the past few months has been Frozen. It’s so fun! The songs are so good! We want to lip sync them! Disney Animation is better than Pixar now! And so on and so on. Was it really that good, guys? HISHE thinks it could have better. Or at least, different with this alternate ending where Anna and Elsa’s parents just don’t understand what the heck to do (and go to someone who knows very well how to help mutants).

Ridiculousness. Hilarity. So many laughs and chortles and comedic gold bars appear that I can’t help but keep watching. It’s brilliant, really. Malinda Kathleen Reese took the lyrics from Frozen’s Let it Go by Idina Menzel through Chinese, Macedonian, French, Polish, Creole and a whole bunch of other languages and then back into English. Let It Go becomes Give Up.

It’s gotten ridiculously frigid here in Chicago, what with the recent Polar Vortex and colder than normal winter. But I’ve never seen anything like this scene, recently captured in Norway:

Apparently, when harsh winds caused temperatures over a Norwegian bay to drop to sub-freezing temperatures, the fish swimming close to the surface were flash frozen. While the air temperature of -7.8°C (~18°F) seems balmy by Chicago standards, it was enough to put the instant deep-freeze on the fish.

According to locals, the water and fish remain frozen, and the birds and whales will have a field day when the thaw eventually comes.

It’s summer and it is hotter than Tatooine outside. It’s the perfect time of year for a frozen treat to cool you off. Try this Han Solo dessert treat – frozen in root beer sherbet.

Jabba would love to devour this frozen treat on a hot day while sailing on his barge. This tasty and cool carbonite treat comes from Justjennrecipes and I don’t know about you, but I wish I had one right now. It’s too damn hot!

The sherbet is made of root beer, heavy cream and condensed milk. Hit the link above to find out how to make this tasty treat yourself. You’ll need to pick up one of these carbonite silicone molds to do the job. You can’t go wrong with a sherbert smuggler.

Fruit and cereal, it’s a tried and true combo. You might even venture to call it boring. But damned if there’s anything—anything—that can’t be improved with a little liquid nitrogen and super slow-motion. More »
