This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Always Anti-fascist!

Man, Jesse, that probably means I won't like them either...I have one of the movies buried in my Netflix queue though. Suddenly disappointed they never made Right as Rain into a movie, even though SLJ still doesn't match "my" Derek Strange.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, looks like my hippie friends thing is the same time. I just saw them, so we'd rather see you.

Let's say dinner at the Gage at 5? That'll give us time to check out the Art Institute, and we can see if our buddies want to hang later.

I'm going offline more or less now, so texting{redacted} is probably easiest now. Yays!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know, erika. People really like them! And maybe I've liked the previous two more, since obviously I liked them enough to keep reading. Maybe I'm just not in the mood right now. I should read some Reacher for a palate cleanser.

Also, in re brenda and Liese, I love us.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oy. I was planning to get an early start with driving home today. Instead, I woke up, ate a bagel, and then fell asleep again until almost 1 PM. I guess my new plan is eat lunch with my family, then drive home.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Since many of the Buffistas have more shopping-fu than I do, does anyone here know where the best place to look for Pendletons (lined flannel shirts...doesn't have to be that brand) on sale would be?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In today's exercise in leftover management I just had eggs scrambled with turkey, gruyere and fresh herbs. Yum! Fortunately my turkey was really juicy and I sauteed the meat in the butter first to keep it moist and warm it before adding the eggs.

I like having the fresh herbs around. I need to chop up the rest of them to have a stash for a while.

Later, I will be taking the tips from the Chron on how to turn leftover stuffing into a savory bread pudding. That way I can add some eggs and cheese to the stuffing and make little savory muffins I can send to work with JZ so she has some leftovers that taste like Thanksgiving but also give her the protein she needs.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just got back from TJ's, where I noticed that they have something new called Mac and Cheese Bites in the frozen food section. I could be wrong, but from the package, it looks like deep fried mac and cheese.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

D just whipped up leftover ham and some leftover queso sauce in some boxed mac and cheese for lunch, and it was easy and tasty.

I think make open-faced turkey sandwiches for dinner this week, and I have some beans in the pantry; I'll crock-pot some ham and beans one day. 2 menu thoughts for the week: score! Thanks for the foodspiration, Hec.

I have a windowsill that's perfect for a little herb planter (I have SO many things I have been wanting for the house, and now I can start to slowly add them.) I've been lusting after these little herb pots in particular: [link]

I think basil, chives and dill would fit on the sill nicely. Then in the summer, I can grown a shitton of basil outside; maybe some rosemary in a bigger pot in the dining room. Hmm.
