I’m really enjoying this series!
When I started dating my husband 45 years ago, I wouldn’t spend the weekends at his house because I needed privacy. He gave me a little room that was just for me! How can you not marry a man like that??

I hate this idea. Maybe it’s just because I pee a lot and Minnesota has four seasons. But the idea of staying in some outbuilding, without a restroom, that I have to be out in the elements to get to? No thanks. Make everyone else in the house leave.

If I had a backyard, I would definitely have installed some sort of shed this year - for my husband the loud conference call talker.

Can someone explain to me why the fuck Americans are so obsessed with labeling everything? Why does it have to be a “she shed”, “man cave”, “demo day”? And don’t get me started on basic bitches labeling baskets you can clearly see the contents of, and the epitome of this crap, those faux shabby chic signs with crap…

He’s COUNTRY!

Also he is wearing.... jeans....??? It would appear. 

Are you on the arroz con habichuelas advisory board?

“...instead of just a bunch of white people in the US who are determined to make mountains out of molehills”

A KFC-Lifetime production about sexy Col. Sanders starring Mario fucking Lopez? I will hate myself for every minute I spend eagerly devouring this masterpiece video bowel. While I eat pizza.

Who, or what is a “LatinE”?? Is this an autocorrect error for Latinx? And you do know that no one but Puerto Ricans care about arroz con habichuelas right? You could have left it at arroz con frijoles, or just at arroz even though that isn’t exactly universal across all countries of Latin America.

Yeah I had a huge fight with one of my besties. It was like May and he was insisting about it being time to open up everything again already, because lockdown is such an inconvenience and made him anxious. I asked him how many people had to be dying for it to be worth a little inconvenience in his life.

Corn Flakes, PB&J, PB straight from the jar, toast... hell you’re just gonna need to buy my cookbook “Why Yes, I Am Single. How Did You Know?”

Jezzies, I am so bored with our usual recipes. We’re mostly vegetarian, a little fish, a little chicken, nothing terrifically spicy. What are your favorite recipes?

Love the clouds, congrats on the new place!

I felt so apathetic about posting recently, but Thanksgiving was a nice break (alone, but I just need another 4 days off in a row, please and thanks?). I was doing really well making different interesting easy food, and then I hit a slump again.

Due to the pandemic, I will be picking up ten hours of overtime a week starting Monday. The hospital has also gone from a COVID unit to a COVID floor to two floors, effective yesterday.

Oh no—fingers crossed on the biopsy, big time. It sounds like you’ve been down this road before, which sucks, but was it something you figure you can deal with again? Either way, I wish you all the best of it.

First off, I wanted to tell you all that the JezFamily has been such a source of support for me over these past few months. Reading your posts on various articles has given me such pleasure and strength and support. So, a huge THANK YOU to all of you for that. It’s been shitty for all of us; having the JezFam has made…

Oh this sounds miserable, I’m so sorry your throat is being problematic and that your neighbour is (at best) foolish and (at worst) a straight up asshole.

Hey gang, it’s been a while…
