Same Maria, Same. I have been doing a LOT of texting to PA for down ballot races, so hopefully it gets voter turnout up.

Our wings are not tired.
45 and Biden are in a dead heat in PA. I'm petrified the Cheeto will win.
When one side is trying to make sure everyone votes and the other side wants as few people to vote as possible it is a clue how they think it will go. I do believe Trump does absolutely nothing to gain new people, and every day does something to lose people. That helps.
I'm trying to be optimistic because that is the only way I will survive until November. I just hope it doesn't drag into December.

Yes, Jesse, Alan Cumming. I did know that.
And, yes, that is who that is! I know he's played other parts since then but that's how I always think of him.

Alan Cumming is really working the silver fox look these days.

I still have the feeling that Trump will win. I feel sure Biden will get more votes, but that Trump will manage to edge out a win or court decisions where the vote is too much of a mess to have a clear winner in enough of the states that actually matter.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Of the most recent eleven polls of PA, Biden is leading in ten of them, by an average of 5.7%. Only one poll showed them level, and that was Rasmussen.

Tonight I cooked a pot of red quinoa, unaware that it has basically no flavor. As I now have two cups of the stuff in my fridge, any suggestions of what to add to it for subsequent meals in order to make it seem like food?

anything in a garlic sauce. I do quinoa rather than pasta some. I am also a fan or pre-made simmer sauces with cute up meat of your choice - I like the Frontera ones and TJs Curry or Korma ones.

I usually cook my quinoa in chicken or vegetable broth. (For future reference.)
For the stuff you've already cooked, you can make a cold salad by tossing in diced tomatoes, chickpeas (or your choice of beans), diced onion, maybe diced cucumber, toss it with olive oil and red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. t edit Maybe throw some avocado on top, and/or feta.
You can really use quinoa cooked in water as a base for any kind of throw-stuff-together salad. I make a cold fruit salad with it, too -- whatever fruits you want, cut up small if need be, mixed with honey and lime juice.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Treat quinoa like rice. Anything involving a nice sauce will be delightful over it.
