In better news, the Blunt amendment was voted down in the senate.
That is some fantastically good better news.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Because books.
So far we've made a chicken pot pie type thing that needs some tweaking next time, beef stroganoff, and this pork thing. Fingers crossed it's decent.

Thai food for lunch from a new to me place. As is my way, I ordered 3 dishes to see if I like them. LEFTOVERS!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that does that. I do it with places I know I like, too, just because I like having a variety of dishes for a meal. My whole life should be catered with tapas and appetizers.
Mmm, pork ragout.

I haven't gotten any more creative than making soups and chili in my crock pot. We're going out to dinner tonight because it is my friend's birthday.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, you guys need to make this crockpot salsa verde pork burrito bowl recipe. It is the easiest thing ever. You dump jarred salsa verde in the crockpot, add the pork roast, dump more salsa over it, and let it cook all day. There's a lime cilantro rice that goes with it that I make in the rice cooker. Then you make Chipotle style burrito bowls with the carnitas. It is so yum, and so easy, and you can doctor it up all you please. Last time I swapped out the refried beans for black beans, and added some fajita style sauteed onions and peppers. So good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Pot roast freezes beautifully if you include the liquid in your tupperware, Allyson.
this pork thing. Fingers crossed it's decent.
How could it be bad? Slow cooked pork is Teh Yum.
My whole life should be catered with tapas and appetizers.
I sort of aspire to this.

We could turn our outrage toward the Wisconsin senator who wrote a bill classifying single parenthood as child abuse.
Keep digging, WI Republicans.

So... If its abuse and they take away the kids, what does he propose that WI do with them? Orphanages?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hm. We could turn our outrage toward the Wisconsin senator who wrote a bill classifying single parenthood as child abuse.
I didn't read Alyson's link. But from another source I read that he wants it to be known (through legislation) that single parents are more likely to be child abusers. Not that they're all abusers.
