I’d also start doing deep dives in the past of every lawmaker who voted for this bill. Shake a few trees and dig up old girlfriends, ex-wives. With that many Good ‘Ol Boys, you KNOW quite a few have paid for or “abetted” in an abortion.

I wonder if physicians can do a work-around by maintaining legal residency (domicile) in another state? It’s my understanding that if someone wants to sue another person who lives in a different state, they have to sue them in the defendant’s state of residence. So if a doctor could satisfy legal requirements to…

I haven’t seen the Morningstar Farms chorizo where I live. The only kind I can access is the chorizo. My husband doesn’t like real chorizo - it’s hella greasy and makes him feel like shit for hours after eating it.

Because my husband still occasionally eats meat (and we both eat fish), I have tried almost all of the meat substitutes at some point over the past 20 years.

Ha! I realized that after I posted my comment. So I guess I AM the only one who thinks Beyond Meat smells like cat pee!

Oh no! I’m experiencing a similar thing with my late mother’s best friend of over 40 years. She was like a second mother to me but she drinks Fox Kool-Aid. It’s hard to talk with her too long, so I just keep it short. I text mostly - pictures of my children and my one grandchild, some family news every few weeks. Same…

I thought I was the only one who thought Beyond smelt like cat pee. Plus it made me feel so weighed down and gross.

Especially given the shit they serve. Believe me, I’ve eaten it recently, many times. It’s deplorable, pre-packaged shite, which they serve on a line, using their old stoves and ovens as countertops to restock the line with lukewarm flavored milk, apple slices (in a package), raw carrots (in a package), ranch dressing…

That’s good to know! I don’t doubt it. He never struck me as an asshole, just someone who lacks on screen “it.”   Now I wonder which FN cooks are actual assholes? Hmm...

Giada DeLaurentis and Bobby Flay suffer from the same unlikability problem. Food Network keeps trying to make them happen. I’m not having it. They are clearly both very good cooks. On camera they are cringey. Too slick and also weirdly awkward. Charisma is a nebulous thing.

I think maybe it’s a texture/temperature/mental thing? I’m sure what you describe is really good. But the only hot gruel-like dish I like are good cheesy grits. Not the white gloppy grits I grew up eating. I’ve tried to like congee. I feel I could grow to like congee or really good oatmeal. I just don’t like breakfast…

I think she is a talented writer. On camera, however, where the Food Network “brand yourself” pressure is high, she just comes off as a fame grabber trying way too hard to sell her lifestyle. She’s just one of us y’all! Only with a bunch of money and some fundie vibes!

That’s the point of the article, I think. We are all different and want/need to follow our own dietary path throughout the day. My husband is a breakfast guy. Coffee, cereal or bagel or avocado toast. At that hour, I just wander around the kitchen like a wraith, feeding my dog and cleaning up after him before I go…

I’m not a breakfast person. My stomach doesn’t wake up until at least 10 am, which means I eat two meals per day. I don’t like coffee or cereal. Oatmeal, yuck. I like savory breakfast foods with maybe a small sweet component, but I want to eat that lunch or supper. I guess I’m a bruncher? Fancy, right!?!

Why would anyone with a high-pressure job and strenuous public obligations adopt a dog of that breed mix?

I use farmer’s cheese (found in blocks near the ricotta and cottage cheese) - which brings that cheesier taste that cottage cheese offers and the texture of ricotta. But I don’t have access to good fresh mozzarella or burrata. It’s all bland and plasticky textured. In the winter I’ll use a splash of balsamic to…

I tried to watch this, because I do really like Nicole Kidman (To Die For is one of my favorite movies) and Melissa McCarthy. But coming so soon after the eccentric, funny/sad White Lotus, I didn’t want to watch another angsty mostly white privileged folk drama, especially when it didn’t hook me with anything other…

We don’t have county fair baking competitions in our area. We have some church cake walks and, of course, bake sales. First to go at a cake walk are fancy decorated cakes or cupcakes. Bake sales - cupcakes, brownies... cookies are last. Everyone knows what refrigerator cookies look like.
