I have leftover braised lamb shanks and thyme polenta. But, I had a fight with my mother and I was so pissed off that I wasn't hungry. Now, I am, but it's almost 5, so I might as well wait for dinner.
Wait. People? She eats people? 'To Serve Man.' It's 'To Serve Man' all over again.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

One year I made hamentaschen at Purim time, just to see if I could.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hamentaschen are pretty easy to make. The only tricky thing is making sure the corners are totally closed, otherwise they kind of collapse open and make a mess while they're baking.
The ones I had were from a bakery, though.

Wow this pledge guy didn't want to offend anyone...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, at the time he wrote it, he didn't realize we'd be in a life and death struggle against the godless Commies.
Yeah, that probably wouldn't have occurred to him, seeing that he himself was a socialist (or, says Wikipedia, a "Christian Socialist," a.k.a. a proto-Dorothy Day type, so really a Godful Commie). And a cousin of the utopian novelist who wrote Looking Backward. Altogether a cooler guy than the current state of the Pledge would lead you to believe.
I wonder if that'd make the hardliners back off from the Pledge... written by a socialist!!!1!11
And, yeah, Laga, he kind of pussied out there, but he does get at least a couple of points for standing firm against "under God" despite being a minister himself.

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

This is one of those problems that becomes an opportunity when you squint and tilt your head just a little -- you know how it's your sacred duty to eat that cookie that crumpled on top of the spatula when you tried to scoop it up off the sheet while it was still too hot? You can't possibly give those oozy split-open hamantaschen to someone else.

droolWow, those pictures were very Yoni-esque for me. @@! Must be spring. Guess whats on my mind.
I always skip the part about "under god". I just take a beat between "nation" and "indivisible"Me too! I did not succomb to the red scare. And feel it is anti-American in that it excludes those who do not believe in God. Or believe in multiple Gods. (I say this as I catch up on TiVo and watching "Banned From The Bible II")
Omnis, not a fan of salad? How is that possible, when there are so many varieties and so many of them are so glorious? I promise that if Zmayhem ever makes a road trip to LA I'll borrow someone's kitchen and whip you up a nice proper Greek salad (or possibly, for an extra healthiness kick, a Greek-spinach hybrid salad). So ridiculously good.JZ, yes, there are good salads out there. I'm not a huge fan of leafy things. I find I like iceberg lettuce, because it typically is crisp with more moisture. Many salad types have all sorts of dressings that I really don't care for. Oil based ones don't sit well, vinegar is ick to me. And the creamy dressings, I dunno. Tend to gross me out somehow. Also hate mayonnaise so there goes potato(e) and pasta salads. I have no qualms with eating veggies raw or steamed alone. But, for whatever reason, not a big fan of salads. Not to say I don't eat them at all. But rare. Soups have a similar fate with me. So I tend to load up on the main course and ignore the pre-courses when eating out.
Yes. I is strange.
