I wish picking people to vote for wasn't such a depressing exercise. For a superior court judge position, we have the wife of a former sheriff who is in prison for his part in a jail contract kickback scheme versus a man indicted for investor fraud.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Maybe Mr. Peabody should run.

Mr Peabody would be a better candidate for the school board. He couldn't make things much worse.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good grief, Ginger. Can you just write-in Mr. Peabody? Sounds like that would be as good a choice as either of those.
eta: ha! I'm not the only one who thought it.

Move-in madness is here! But I'm feeling honey-badgerish about it.

Yeah, our choices are not good either. That is why ranked choice voting of various kinds is needed.
Oh, and for your amusement, dreams last night included a new reality show - Judge Judi Dench.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Food: I baked halva chocolate-chips cookies to bring to the office tomorrow (my birthday's on Wednesday and Thursday [according to my two-calendars system] and I won't be in the offices), instead on studying. I'm a good co-worker. I'm also one step from making this recipe entirely vegan (just need a good egg replacement for this. And egg replacements are harder to find here).
In addition, discovered the magic of adding cashew to salads last week, and never looked back since.
(Edit: you know those tiny parts of posts or conversations that you sometimes leave behind because you're a bit all over the place - those parts that would actually help others to understand your intentions better? I seem to forget them about 80% of the time).

Don't remember the details, but believe you can make a good egg replacement from apricots. Are apricots hard to find in Israel?

Depends on the season. And it's their season now, but I don't think this will work well with the recipe (which originally was based on tons of butter, sugar and halva). I'm thinking maybe bananas would work, but it's not the season.

I was told by one vegan that you don't necessarily need to replace the egg in some baked goods, but I have no idea how one figures out when an egg replacement is or is not needed.
