You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

I've never heard it used for cabbage rolls

It's very much a German thing, according to my neighbors and that Wikipedia article Aimee linked to. I think the hot dogs and crescent rolls is probably Betty Crocker's '50s update of the traditional English sausage-and-pancakes.

Love that mid-20th-century comfort food. I am now so jonesing for hot dogs and crescent rolls.

What is even happening?

Sausage in pancakes.

Always Anti-fascist!

We did it as hot dogs and crescents but my mother will be the first to admit we don't have a culinary tradition to stand up for.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I have skipped many posts. There was an adventure involving a broken radiator hose, and freezing MN winter weather last night.

This. Very this.

"White Wedding" is about Billy objecting to his little sister getting married. Really. I wonder if his sister laughs at him, considering she's still hitched to the guy.

I've always thought it had a fairly creepy - of that special backwoods isolation type - subtext.

I no longer know what I thought pigs in a blanket was, since all of the definitions sound plausible to me. Also? Icky. But that could be my DH's influence in not mixing milk and meat -- after seven years of mostly eating this way with him the thought of certain combinations makes me queasy. Fortunately, that queasiness does not yet apply to a good cheeseburger.

My delivery people showed up at 9:21 a.m. Not bad. And now I have pretty chairs.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

DH keeps kosher, Sparky?

DH keeps sort of kosher. Doesn't mix milk and meat, no delicious pig products, shellfish, etc. I have one cheap fry pan and one wooden spoon that I have promised not to corrupt with meat products (for his scrambled eggs) but have told him that there will be no other separations of dishes/utensils.

Personally, I believe it is a way for him to help justify his eating habits, which are generally those of a 7 year old boy. (Few vegetables, pasta, meat, potatoes, mac & cheese, no sauces or gravy, no soups, etc.)

I tease that I made a mistake marrying him, but really it just gives me a good excuse to go out for sushi regularly with my girlfriends.

That's me, rotting myself with artificial ingredients since 1961.

Though I prefer turkey hot dogs these days.

re: "White Wedding"--wouldn't it be horrible to have your big brother's biggest hit be something about you? I always wondered what went through George Harrison's mind whenever he heard "Layla."
