Oz ,'Beneath You'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I feel compelled to say there's no particular evidence that Hilter was an atheist. From what I've researched his theology was pretty whack, making it hard to classify as any particular thing. But, the argument that was made to me was that he had to be an atheist in order to be capable of what he did.
For that matter, he wasn't a vegetarian, either. (People have made the "Hitler was a vegetarian -- why do you want to be like Hitler?" argument to me.)
That reminds me of one my favorite bits from Daria, when she's babysitting a couple of twins, whom she offers sugary cereal or something. To which they respond:
"Sugar is bad."
"Sugar rots your teeth."
"Sugar makes you hyper."
"Hitler ate sugar."
Timelies all!
Hugs and ~ma to those who want/need them.
I managed to catch my pinky between the chair and my computer desk yesterday. Oh, joy, more bruises.
sweaty sweaty hot mess. I want to blast the air and pack like a fiend, but mac needs some attention. Last day with both mental health professionals is a lot and I expect he will have a break at some point tonight.
All I did was get home from work, and I am a sweaty mess. Oy.

I'm sure that'll happen to me too, as it's 90 here and I'm riding my bike home....
Yeah, my little walk plus the stairs were enough. Luckily, I have a cold dinner already prepared! Potato and green bean salad w/ bacon.
I was watching this week's Cooks Country Kitchen, and they had a recipe for potato salad that looked easy and tasty. They used only Yukon Gold potatoes, and after draining them, they spread mustard and pickle juice over them before chilling the potato chunks for 30 minutes. They mixed together pickles, red onions, celery, and salt, pepper, and dried thyme with mayo and sour cream before adding the flavored potatoes into the mix. Then you can add (optional) hard-boiled eggs, although not until just before serving.
They even answered viewers' concerns over leaving potato salad out at a picnic--the mayo doesn't turn, but the potatoes can go rancid relatively quickly.
I think Greek yogurt also has less sugar than the regular stuff. Mostly I buy it because I'm lazy.
Cook's Country/Cook's Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen drives me nut with their potato salads! They have one from each publication (possibly more) called "All-American Potato Salad," each with slightly different ingredients and a long screed on why potato X is the only potato worthy of being used in a potato salad. Except they each use different potatoes! Argh!
