The concept of a “dessert sandwich” is something he hadn’t really considered before.
Seriously? Guess he had never had an ice cream sandwich. Or perhaps made some oversize chocolate chip cookies (baked with margarine for chewiness), then slapped some vanilla ice cream between a couple. There are of course, many variations. . .
A word on the humble tomato sandwich. There's nothing better than a couple slices of fresh tomato between two slices of untoasted white bread with mayo, salt, and pepper. That's it - done. It's so good as is, but like the simple grilled cheese, people want to improve on it and start messing around by changing it up or adding things. Then it becomes something else and no longer what it was intended to be. Just stop messing around and keep it simple.
I'm in on this but. . . I researched some, a lot actually (big rabbit hole) and I think I'll be changing up the recipe.
Most others that I found have you cook the sugar mixture to 250D or as high as 260D.
You don't need cream of tartar. It's purpose is to prevent the sugar from crystalizing which is what lemon juice or citric acid will do. Adding it to the cornstarch mixture does nothing.
You've got to be careful with the stirring. Too vigorous and the starches break down which prohibit gelling.
An Indigenous People's History of the United States - Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz I am not an expert either but my personal library has over thirty books covering the history of the American Indian Tribes. Biographies of the major players, multiple in some cases, along with histories of major events, battles, and massacres - The Trail of Tears, The Long March, Custer, Sitting Bull, Cochise, Geronimo, Red Cloud, The Osage - It's fair to say I'm well read.
If one is looking for an objective point of view as told by the Indian side, this isn't it. Dunbar-Ortiz is much too casual with the word genocide. She writes from the view that colonization by itself is an act of genocide and it's all downhill from there. A brief overview of the remarkable state structure of the Iroquois Confederacy, but no mention that to get there, they destroyed the Mohicans, Huron, Neutral, Erie, Susquehannock, and northern Algonquins, with brutality many historians have labeled genocide. The founding of Jamestown is the Roots of Genocide; a second sub-chapter: Settler-Parasites Create The Virginia Colony.
This history is nothing more than a biased diatribe against white America.
The 'shopkeeper' in the article who tried to get a federal holiday for Lincoln was from Buffalo, NY, which had long observed both Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays as holidays. As did several states. When Congress made the change, we all lost a day off from school - Boo! It was presented to us younglings as combining both birthdays into one. The confusion won't go away until we all die off.
Not quite the coldest in history. This is a 14 minute documentary on an attempt in 1982 to rescue two missing hikers on Mt. Washington. Wind chill then hit -109. Video is worth your time.
Move over Fonzie, Gladiator 2 has jumped the shark to whole new level. The Coliseum is filled with enough water (salt water, right?) to support a school of Great White Sharks and two full size ships which egage in an 'epic' battle. Woe unto those who fall into the water... And the armour does nothing? Missed the final scene you did. This was one of The Stupidest movies I've ever half-paid attention to. I. Was. Not. Entertained.
The Wolf Man is the one film that scared the crap out of me as a youngling. Specifically the scene of Lon Chaney transforming. Always shut my eyes for that and it was a long time before I was able to watch it.
Neal has himself a real winner here. Hope the rest of the internet doesn't crash his website. Previously at Neatorama with the The Wonders of Street View and The Deep Sea? Or was that Miss Cellania? Whatever - Shout out to https://neal.fun/
Holmes is a great character. He was featured a while back on our local news show and talked a bit about Timothy and the start of his career. If you like Humphrey Bogart, getting caught in the rain. . . Almost!

Need to read up some more but for now, I'm going with this: https://aegeandelight.com/authentic-turkish-delight-recipe-from-narnia/
Pretty sure it's that one - I've got a lot of open tabs here. . .
