  Very late to the party on this one but I finally made @alisoneroman 's anchovy shallot pasta and I am shocked at how mellow this stuff is, considering it has a shit ton of shallots and a whole jar of anchovies. Good stuff!

  TIL I learned that "boat", "bait", "bite", "bolt", and "bitter" are all cognates, from a PIE word meaning to strike or split (the connection with boat appears to be that one used to make them by hollowing out split tree trunks).

  TIL that the "-ly" suffix commonly added to words in English to denote an adverb comes from the word "like" (still existing in the word "ladylike", for example). So "slowly" came from "slow-like" and "carefully" came from "careful-like" (possibly explaining the double "l").
