This is what I said. Find a new recipe for sure....I am trying to imagine what that tasted like with all of that tahini. Plus tahini is so high in fat. I have made a hummus using cannelini beans and liked the flavor better than garbanzo. I added rosemary and garlic.

If parsley is not the same as pesto, can we also agree that cannellini beans and rosemary do not make hummus? It's a white bean dip, but it ain't hummus!

Cannellini beans and rosemary and garlic ....and tahini are certainly hummus-ish IMO. I failed to mention the tahini as I thought it was a given.

Most of the Middle East might disagree with you. (I figured there was tahini in it.)

Went with burgers to test out the homemade buns. I toasted the buns with some ghee in cast iron and got a perfect crispy edge. The burgers are Beyond from Costco; while I'm a carnivore, my wife is pescatarian, so sometimes it's easier to just make two of these, and they honestly taste pretty good.

these were for dessert, after supper.
I had a bowl of 2 ice creams. My family has different ice cream novelties. I still haven’t opened the Melona brand novelties.

Well, you have 10-15 varieties to choose from. You must have loved Farrell’s as a kid.

Boy, I sure did! Some of my best memories as a kid 70-73ish in Sacramento. The plane crash ended that institution. Sad.

Swensons Ice cream, who even had franchise in Hong Kong. In fact I had a dream about them last night - I ordered ahead and my milkshakes were ready.
in reality, I’ve never had this much inventory of ice cream treats prior to pandemic.

I've never found a place even remotely close to as cool as Farrell's.

We would wait in line to get in and nothing was more exciting than someone ordering a pig's trough.
I think I need some ice cream now.
