I still make those cakes, but I put them in the teeniest of loaf pans because I figure that there’s a good chance that they’ll remain untouched. I have a select few people in my life who get the large loaf pans, laden with ever so much rum. Those happy few love it.

Oh lord—please know that there is a complete stranger in this world that is thinking of you and hopes you will stay strong. Hold onto what you can, remember that you have people you love waiting for you and there will be many more lattes in your future.

It’s not a whine—it’s a perfectly understandable unloading of what sounds like a rotten week. You’ve done the healthy thing to find outlets like Saturday Night Social— it shows that you already know how to treat yourself well. I hope you’re back with your family soon.

You can also make a kind-of sort-of bagel with that recipe. Just form it into a reasonable likeness of a bagel, brush an egg wash on top, and sprinkle with salt or other seasonings. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes and let sit for another 20.

Please allow me to introduce myself as a lurker who loves your hair.

Thank you for your reply. I read so many articles discussing when schools might open etc. that I kind of pounce on information (whether it’s in my state or not).

If you are making bbq crock pot chicken or pork shoulder etc, I imagine it would add a caramelized tang to the meat?

Where did you hear about the possibility of California maintaining the 10 people or less guidelines for a year? Would that include schools? The rural parts of the state? 

After eight days of waiting, I’m getting a grocery delivery. I’m going to make crab cakes (which reminds me of summer and the beach) quiche (of Easter with lots of family) and roast brussel sprouts (My dad’s favorite. If he was alive right now he’d first be appalled over the very idea of Trump, but he’d be delighted…

That makes some horrible sense.

That’s basically all I use as ‘buttermilk’.

No Big Waffle love intended. It’s a crapshoot where you find things. I suspect that more urban areas have an easier time of replenishing their stock.

Where are you finding flour? Buttermilk? I can get eggs if I pounce on the sketchy Safeway after senior hour is done at 7am, but anything else would require an immense amount of luck or a complete disregard for the whole ‘quick trips’ directive.

Honestly, I would love to incorporate that into my egg hunt this year.

It was actually a publisher for a book that she (Tripp) hoped to write. It was a popular publisher of far right books. There’s really no way in defending this.

This is what she said (I’m not certain I completely believe her, because it seemed to push all the right buttons): that she was appalled that Clinton would prey on a young and quite naive young woman -never mind subordinate, that it was clear that Monica was unhappy and had extra stress upon her for this and yet…

Do you mean ‘what’s the point of re-making it,’ or ‘what’s the point of the article’ itself?

Dear lord. Bri—please know that there is a stranger mom who completely in awe of what you’ve done this past month. I can’t even list all the thank yous I have in my head (‘thank you for taking this seriously even when very few did, thank you for stepping up and being an amazing mom to your step-daughter, thank you for…

Honestly it comes down to having a President who enrages me or one who terrifies me. Rage I can deal with. 

Corona virus aside, Boris Johnson always looks like he’s running a low grade fever.
