fasolakia=green beans the way my Greek grandpa made them. Snip ends off 1 lb green beans, cut into bite size. slice 1 med onion into size resembling green beans. core 1 large tomatoe, dice finely, reserve juice. saute onions and tomato (with juice) n 1/2 cup (that's right, 1/2 cup) olive oil until onion softens-do…

I'll even take the too much skin, as long as it is not foreskin. Just bathe in the 12 hours preceding your flight, wear clothes that have been washed and unworn, and please please please wash your damn hands after using the lavatory. That's all I ask.

Thank you! I love a guy in a kilt. Even an older, out of shape guy. It just screams I-do-not-give-a-fuck-what-you-think-of-my-sartorial-selection, and THAT is what I find so sexy. Unfortunately, can't get Mr. AZ in one, and he's a very confident guy. Just a different viewpoint on them. He admires the guys who do…

how about spitting on the altar? Church mission trip to Haiti, I'm idly watching John (name changed to protect the not so innocent) from across the church we were using as the clinic as he confers with the deacon. He grabs a soda bottle of water off the altar step and takes a huge swig. Almost instantly I (and he)…

similar thing happened to Mr. AnnieZelma a couple of years ago on Bearss Ave. Baby ducks just couldn't hop the curb, so he stopped traffic to scoop them up so they could follow Mama Duck. Little buggers ran everywhere, and he had just started Ivig treatment and was incredibly fatigued and having to chase them. Got…

i got your back on this one. Mr AZ bootstrapped his way from voc tech school all the way to a master's (magna on the undergrad accounting, I'm very proud) & I will always give the title if the person references it themselves ("hi, class, I'm Dr. Borpo "). I say correct your students when they misaddress you. You're…

Keel and Curley winery, Florida. they ship.

You just have to know how to eat a peach. My Southern belle mama taught me. It takes fresh Georgia peaches, a blender, and copious amounts of alcohol. Mama was wild, I tell you, wild.

their sandwiches suck, and it sounds like the CEO does too. Please tell me Which Wich isn't run by assholes, because it's my favorite.

Thank you. As someone is in active therapy/recovery from my first (and I hope to Cat my last) bout of depression, I can understand. Fortunately, (I guess) I had a major meltdown, recognized it as such, and got help immediately. As the days wore on, I did not consider suicide (cleaned up one friend's suicide by gun…

Truly. Many years ago, same thing happened. My racist, armed, black belt trained father wouldn't open the door. Called the police. Woman was too drunk to get off our front porch, but the cop handled it safely.

The only crafting I do with Mason jars involves pectin and blueberries. Yum.

all these catty little comments...

Heh, heh. I do needlework. You know, like your sweet old granny did, only I was about 13 when I started doing it (spent a lot of time in doctor's offices, mom was a seamstress). On one flight, a man at least 30 years older than me began to rhapsodize about his old maiden aunties who stitched endlessly. finally, I…

Okay, the Arby's one got me. Disclaimer: I am not, nor ever have been, in food service.

tl;dr

As a multiple cat owner, I've made a couple of midnight trips to the emergency clinic for euthanasia. Down here in our area, it's bright green and called SleepAway. Really? At least it's a really peaceful way to see them go, compared to some ways I've had cats die (the cardiac arrest in my baby with cardiomyopathy…

Mr. AZ had the roux en y gastric bypass in '93, and the surgeon warned me up front that increased flatulence was a sequela of it. It sure as hell has been. That man can fart ON DEMAND! I have employed his awesome powers to move other shoppers away from clearance racks at the store, and to force annoying…

It was the big cat shit everywhere. Ain't no way I'm gonna scrape that litter box. Not unless kitty is in a different cat-a-tat (their word for the kitty enclosures) and I'm wearing full hazmat.

Yes. Big Cat Rescue (where this video was shot) are all rescue cases that could not survive in the wild. They didn't belong in the dickwad's basement they were found in (or whatever miserable situation it was), and now at least they have a half decent life. Be warned if you plan to visit-big cat smell is horrific.…
