Dear Semi-Erect Penis at Denny Blaine: I just ate a Bakery Nouveau twice-baked chocolate-almond croissant, but I really want to swim out to that buoy. Do I need to wait half an hour?

Dear Semi-Erect Penis at Denny Blaine: I’m having the hardest time peeling this hard-boiled egg. Any tips?
—Scout, Burien
Get better at boiling those bad boys. You’re going to want to put the eggs in a pan of water, bring it to a boil, let ’em cook for one minute, turn off the heat, and cover them for 10 minutes. Then submerge the eggs in ice water. Trust me. Those eggs will open sesame.
