Last weekend marked the unofficial (but basically official—get real) start of summer. We enjoyed a BBQ, a cutthroat game of Apples to Apples, a leisurely bike ride to Rikers Island, and beautiful weather. Meatloafing offers 7 tips for a sensational summer:
- Work on this season’s “it” muscle (according to Maggie, it’s the semitendinosus, the semimembranosus, and the biceps femoris, all of which make up what’s commonly known as the hamstring)
- Bike often and wear a helmet
- Don’t wear leggings as pants
- Make sun tea in your office windowsill if you cannot actually go outdoors
- Mollie’s Famous Lemonade
- Constantly over-meat
- Enjoy this timeless, yet often overlooked vegetable: Radishes!

We’ve been busy: spring cleaning, Netflix, and living at sea for awhile. Anyhoo. Tonight is part one of the 2-night season finale of American Idol, in case you’ve been living under a rock.
Last week, prior to the Top 3 show, we tried to share our predictions, but Meatloafing had apparently been hacked and we were unable to post. Nonetheless, we were right:
Anne: i thought archuleta would win all along, but i honestly think cook has a chance
Anne: syesha better get dumped tonight
Meatloafing: i think america wants the davids to have a face-off
Anne: syesha has clearly not been that popular all along—she’s almost always been in the bottom 2
Meatloafing: she’ll get shat on tonight i think
Tonight, the obvious choice is Archuleta. But here at Meatloafing, we’re partial to Cook. → More Meatloafing

Jesse L. Martin’s final episode of Law & Order airs in two weeks. The episode, titled “Burn Card,” isn’t just a bittersweet end to a legendary era of Dick Wolf’s nearly two-decade-old series—it’s also Meatloafing favorite Jeremy Sisto’s time to shine (i.e., excite us the way he did so often on Six Feet Under). JLM final episode spoilers here. (We’re holding out for the real thing.) [All Things Law & Order]
“Burn Card” airs April 23 at 10 p.m. (NBC)

We just got this handy little device called the Flip, a really simple and user-friendly video camera. This is our first test video. Sorry if it makes you a little queasy.

As cranes hover in the Williamsburg sky, prices at Dumont Burger have soared even higher. A regular burger now costs $13. What? Dumont Burger, get real. Hold your horses. The condos aren’t filled up yet, the economy is collapsing, and the neighborhood will always need an excellent, moderately priced burger. Don’t you already sell your burgers at a higher price at regular Dumont? And presumably an even higher price at Dressler? [We love both places. —Ed. ] And you guys just opened the takeout place next door. So I’m guessing you’re doing well, and I don’t see how jacking up the prices is really necessary. Respect the customer. But anyway, if you want to sell $13 burgers (formerly $11.50, I believe), allow us to make a few suggestions:
- Add a cup of finely shredded red-cabbage coleslaw to the plate
- Place one or two onion rings atop fries (or next to salad, if that option is chosen)
- Turn up the fucking heat in the winter so we aren’t forced to opt for takeout even thought we planned to eat there, and the drive to my house basically ruined the fries
- Buy some stools with backs
- Put lemon in your water without me having to ask
