Drizzle just a little Sriracha on Totinos. Game changer IMHO. Doesn't work the same on any other pizza. You want an evenly spaced grid of drops, not a generous swirls. Unless you like the swirl of course. 

She-E-O?  Bad. Sit in the corner and think about what you've done. Naughty. 

No. That dress would only look good on a three year old child. Not skinny people, not fat people, not people of any size in between. Sorry, you are just empirically wrong. 

Oh dear god. My second grade teacher was Sister Mary Alice Ann. She made her final solemn vows during that year, and we were invited to attend. I’ll live all my life remembering her doing the polka with Fr Digiulio (sp?)at her reception. She would pull up her long habit and tuck the back hem in the front of her habit

My single parent grandmother supported herself and my Mom by sewing in a WPA clothing factory. I love seeing ephemera from this time! 

I went to a family party in Richmond (in-laws of my in-laws kind of family). I was introduced to a woman who told me within the first 90 seconds of meeting her that we were on the home farm of her family’s old plantation holdings, and how many generations her family had run a plantation (and owned slaves) there. I

*Looks at the top of the closet, where my old school white shoe skates have been for decades. * 55 isn't too old to bust out some outdoor wheels, right? I'm totally not going to break my hip and elbow, right? 

Jewel! That’s my mama’s name! When was your Jewel born? Mine was born in 1930, and would absolutely have loved that pie. She never liked to cook, but lord could that woman bake. She used to make a white layer cake with vanilla frosting, but put chopped walnuts and maraschino cherries in between the layers, then cover

Thank you. I’ve been quietly advocating the same. We’re impacted exactly not at all by the social distancing. Actually, we’re probably ahead. I already worked from home, but my husband is saving gas and commute. On the other hand, we have a lot of friends in the restaurant and service industries who are really hurting

Paragraph 1, sentence 2. Elude, not allude. 

No. If I tell you a time, that's when I expect you. Don't be more than 5 minutes early or late without letting me know. I'll give you the same respect when I am a guest. 

The bit about washing feet starting at the top? Raquel Welch said to Michael York in The Three Musketeers, 1973. Not even an original trash line.. 

Interestingly enough, my girlfriend Fanny is on her way over *right now* to bring us her mama’s tamales. It’s not an Xmas gift, because we’re buying them to help mama’s immigration lawyer fund, but that’s a perfect cause. Last step of the process happens 1/6/2020, so keep your positive mojo going!

Watch big stupid movies full of partially clothed men (aka XXX, Expendables, any Vin Diesel or Jason Statham movie) with as large a group of moderately intoxicated women as possible. Bonus if your group are the only women in the theater, because you get to terrify the bro-Fandom.

I was ‘randomly selected’ the first time I flew after 9/11. I literally heard a TSA agent tell the screener, “Pick her, she looks nice and probably won’t yell at you.” I have never believed that random was random or screening is more than security theater since. (I’m a middle aged, middle class, blonde white woman

I.. I just wish they had found a better actress for the whole role. I feel like they cast her because her utter lack of facial expression and emotional range fit the Widow ideal. Black Widow has ALL kinds if things going on under the surface, though, and Scarlett can't portray that. 

I had mine done 17 entire years ago, and I’ve begun wearing glasses to read and drive. I did not have a complication free surgery. I had a second, touch up surgery that also was not complication free. I’D DO IT AGAIN TOMORROW!

Thank you for throwing shade at the asshats who use the word ‘gift’ or ‘gifted’ instead of the perfectly accurate and actual words ‘give’ and ‘gave’. It’s almost as annoying and pointless as the tacky rose explosion. (Ok, not even close, but still annoying as hell.)

Jeez, right? Boys were being gross with oranges like that in my jr high, back several *coff* decades ago. (To be clear, labia and the like aren’t gross, but the barely-teen boys were doing to BE gross.) They certainly weren’t trying to make Art.
