Never mind, I want to marry Meryl Streep.
Too late. I married her years ago.
It's Monday! Yeah, about that work thing. Better get back to it.

I feel like the current generation of R's don't believe that liberals (or even moderates) have a legitimate right to office. That makes me worry about democracy in the country.
Me too - it's so chilling.
OK, y'all, carbonara is three things (4 if you count pasta): eggs, bacon, parmesan. (ETA, black pepper too.) Peas are an acceptable garnish, I guess. (???) Anything with cream or yogurt is a alfredo variation.
(swapping stuff out for the bacon, like chorizo or sauteed vegetables is ok, but the egg-parmesan base is sacred!)
Apparently I have Feelings about carbonara.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My oatmeal carbonara meets your criteria, then?
Can Meryl Streep give all the speeches from now on? That would be for the best.

My mental health doesn't want me to seek out Trump's actual response, but I read something on FB this morning that said Trump called Streep a "Hillary lover."
...like that's an insult? (I get that, for him [if that's what he said], it's meant to be an insult. But it's just funny, because...DUH, you giant horrific dumpster fire. OF COURSE she's a Hillary lover.)

I caught an episode of Globe Trekker that was all about CHEESE - going to a cheese fair in England, visiting cheesemakers in France, Italy, Switzerland and Greece ... and tasting both the cheeses and dishes made with the cheeses. yum!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Apparently I have Feelings about carbonara.
Totally legit!

Ha, I had Nora's feelings about carbonara, but I didn't want to seem like I was being persnickety. Who was I kidding, that's who I am and that's who we are. (We do make ours with peas at home, because that way you get a VEGETABLE in one dish.)

The oatmeal carbonara sounds intriguing to me, but I think it might be better with polenta as a base.

I need to stop shuttling between multiple weather sites. One page has less than an inch of snow on Wednesday. Another site has 5-8 inches of snow for a spot five miles away on Wednesday. Utah has freaky weather, but a storm putting down half a foot of snow is not going to be impressed by town boundaries.
