Thrive to spite them

Pimento cheese is really easy to make, I'm at Matthew's so I don't have any of my cookbooks with the recipes (I think have several church cookbooks with multiple variations). I think it's either cheddar, pimentos, mayo, cream cheese and seasonings mixed together or just mayo, and I've seen one recipe that use Velveeta, pimentos, and mayo. There are a few variations that use a sweetener like sugar or syrup.

When I get home I'll look through some when I get home.

I don't believe I have ever had pimento cheese.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Traditional pimiento cheese when I was a kid was always made with a jar of chopped pimientos and a block of Actual Velveeta. I'm sure there were other ingredients (added cottage cheese was one variant, as I recall the curdy texture), but those were the two grocery store basics.

Man, white sliced bread (Bunny or Sunbeam or Merita), Velveeta, Armor dried beef, thin slices curled in the little glass with the stars around the top, sliced bologna, mayo, tomatoes, French's mustard, ketchup, and American slices were the foods of my childhood. Oh, the garden vegetables Mom grew and then cooked into utter submission, too.

Oh my god, home made French onion soup with raclette cheese, so damned good. It's just as well I forgot the bread, because I may have swooned from the goodness.

Heh.

Pimiento cheese does not sound like something I would enjoy.

Speaking of good food, some frozen mixed veg, sauteed chicken, and TJs red curry sauce over rice makes for a tasty dinner.

We had roasted carrots, roasted potatoes, chicken breast, and Israeli couscous for dinner. . ltc ate all of it. So, I call it a win.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Golden Globes, anyone? I already loved Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh, but now I really love them!

I'm just looking at pictures of gowns online, and wow, there are some bold choices this year.

Our wings are not tired.

Watching. Loved the hosts already but found the bits awkward. Missed the red carpet so getting gowns as they present or win.
