sj, you're a genius! We have been trying to figure out what to do with an on-the-large side chicken (5lbs) that runs a little on the tough side (so we like to cook with a moist method) that would not get our house steaming hot in this steaming heat. I think breaking the bird down and doing some sort of slow cooker stew thing is the way to go!
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

d makes me blush. Thanks. Funny, they interview me at like hour 23 or so, and of course everyhing is packed. So I couldn't listen later on. Oh well, I'll dig thru the website and find the archive. I hope they edited out my ahs and ums. There were a lot.

We also bought a lobster and cooked it ourselves!
You should have bought two and had lobster races before cooking them. That's what my first boss out of college and her husband would do on their anniversary. (She was a Psycho Boss Monster From Hell, but she had a sweet relationship with her husband.)

check your chat, Sox. Since it uses his RL name.
Safe travels, o_a!
lobster races
We'd have these every summer, too, across the kitchen floor. Poor bugs. Poor delicious bugs.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Do you at least let the winning lobster go free?

To quote Mike Rowe: "I know you've had a long life. But you're delicious. And I'm bigger than you. One of us is getting into that pot, and it ain't gonna be me."

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Hivemind medical question:
For the past week or so, I've had a dry cough and scratchy sore throat without any other major symptoms. It gets worse as the day progresses, especially if I talk a lot, and then gets better overnight. AFAIK, I'm not coughing at night--at least, if I am, it's not waking me or DH. ETA in general I only cough when I talk, and MAYBE if I do something like run to catch the bus, but the sore throat is there regardless.
Does that sound like allergies, even though I've never had this as an allergy symptom before, or should I call my doctor?
