    Celery ribs add texture more than flavor. They hold up relatively well after simmering which is why they are added to many stewed meat recipes. Celery as a flavor is hard to imagine because it is so diluted in it’s raw form. The leaves hold more flavor and I’ll usually chop them with additional aromatic herbs to add at the end. Incidentally, celery salt on a Chicago dog is an absolute must.










  • From the director Jerry Rees on an ama 14 years ago:

    "The Kirby 500 series is very close to our Vacuum. Toaster was pretty much a simplified Sunbeam. Radio was like a distillation of lots of bakelite radios into one. I remember there was some discussion among the producers about putting eyes and a mouth on Radio. I pointed out that since he was a clock-radio, he already had a face. And his speaker, is his mouth. Glad they let go of the literal face idea. Blanky’s feel - not his model really - was like an insecurity blanket, because he was without his child to cuddle. Lampy was just a good ol’ bendy-neck. Thought he was bright, but he could be pretty dim sometimes.

    Re the junkyard. It’s interesting that we were able to deal with mortality in a way that totally made sense (because cars really do get crushed there) but also went to extremes we could never have gotten away with if we’d used anything but inanimate objects."
