No one ever beat the Catholics for humor under fire. E.g., St. Agatha was martyred by having her breasts cut off, and now those crazy Sicilians celebrate her day with breast-shaped candies topped with pieces of candied fruit for nipples, and rolls whose roundness also recalls mammarial hijinks. In fact I think they made her the patron saint of bakers because she was also rolled over hot coals during her execution. They got a million of 'em.
I have no idea about any of this, but I've gotten seriously baked by drinking strong Valerian root tea. Maybe that's why it was named after the emperor?
By "toast the almonds", I assume you mean to raise the cordial glass saying "Here's to the almonds." and knocking back the shot. I'm not sure where the dry fry pan comes in, though.
Botanically the almond isn't really a nut, but is rather a drupe, or the pit of a fleshy fruit. Almonds are related to peaches. Instead of surrounding the pit with sweet fruit flesh, though, the almond surrounds its drupe with a green leathery coat or skin. Almonds and peaches are both classified in the same subgenus of the Prunus genus, which also includes plums, nectarines, apricots and cherries
Hopefully, 1700 years from now, all religions will be dead.
Jesus, somebody liked this comment.
Take off the foil BEFORE you add the Ro-Tel and microwave.
Ah, the "broken cookie almond" theory.

If you're in a hurry, skip the peach.
Upfists are just one reason why Wonkette does not allow comments.
Yum! Thanks!

Peaches, meet grill... Kinky!
"Peaches en Cordialia" always lifts my mood.

I always wondered about that, but was too lazy to look it up for myself. Thanks!
What do I do with the Velveeta?
