Who is Sandra Lee and why do I hate her?
Because she has a "cooking" show in spite of the fact that she is clearly and visibly disgusted by any contact with food.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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.
What does it mean???
I read an article on this yesterday, but IIRC it just means he was using gov't money to pay for his racing horses.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Those cheesy potatoes seem ridiculous and I don't even cook. I must catch this show.
So, what are people doing for the Last Weekend of Summer?

Catching up on sleep after the first week of fall.

I'm guessing a horse racing operation refers to illegal betting?
IIRC it just means he was using gov't money to pay for his racing horses.
Oh. I guess the quote marks confused me.

Possibly helping my parents celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary, sleeping in my own bed (or couch) for at least two nights in a row, and maybe taking in a live theatre show to ogle a departing actor in his final nude performance.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The best (clearly a joke) comment on that recipe on the Food Network site:
ITALIANMAMA
My little ones did not like this one bit and neither did my husband who will eat just about anything so I doctored it up a bit with an italian dressing packet (did I tell you I am Italian? LOL) and a can of cream of potato soup. They still didn't like it too much so I will keep experimenting. Thanks so much anyway for trying.
Hahaha!!
I am cleaning my house FOR REALZ, going to the movies probably, who knows what else.

"I asked Leif what it was going to take to get him to quit throwing things and hitting Emaryn. His answer? "Lots, and lots and lots and lots and lots of gallons of water." I said, "You mean if I make you drink lots and lots and lots and lots of gallons of water then you will stop doing that?" "Yes," he said."
Well, it would certainly work if he ended up stuck in the bathroom!
I have never seen the show, but just heard it described. After seeing some of the recipes....um...from scratch would be healthier AND easier in many cases! Amuse yourself with her cocktails: [link]

So, what are people doing for the Last Weekend of Summer?
Meeting one of my "We have to get together sometime" (and then never do) buddies for lunch and pedicures on Saturday. Looking for used reference books to take to my new job (my Chicago Manual of Style is over 10 years old—probably doesn't even have an entry on web referencing) on Monday.
ETA: Yay Matt! That's great news about your dad.
