...I had no idea that was what they were referencing. I didn't even think it was a reference to something else.

This isn't so much a 'display', because it's in a cupboard.

It’s amazing that anyone can still promote supply side economics with a straight face given how many times it has never worked to create jobs and prosperity for Americans. It’s like saying “cigarettes don’t cause cancer.”

Neither of us uses recipes so we haven't many cook books, I have a few of family recipes that are of sentimental value only.

Since I am the college graduate in the family, I am the Keeper of the Recipes for the family. I’m designing a website for them, so the whole family has access. I’m taking pictures of all the hand written recipes, and transcribing them. For example, my grandmother’s risk recipe stays with “1 risin.” She meant yeast; I’m trying to get the amount just right, which means more experimentation. Fun stuff!

That's wonderful. Someone has to be the one to keep those traditions alive. We were very fortunate in that my Gram spent time with all of her daughters' families, each one a consummate chef like her.

I use my cookbooks heavily and they look it. A couple are held together by duct tape as I’ve had them for over 35years. My display cabinet is an old narrow Ikea bookcase shoved in the corner. I don’t have shelf space to include cute items like old scales or fake fruit crates (why?) i guess I don’t understand decorating.

After installing a kitchen that looked nice, my partner and I have realized that we cook far to much to be wasting any time or energy on æsthetics. No more veneer-wood countertops or nice arrangements of decorative items. Our next kitchen is going to be pure workhorse, with stone or steel countertops and built entirely for efficiency.

Julia Child covered the walls of her kitchen with pegboard to store her kitchen items in plain view. Her entire kitchen is in the Smithsonian Museum of American History, so she did something right.

What the fuck happened in my kitchen? It looks like dirty dishes and utensils and debris was vomited over every countertop and all three sinks.

WELL that is your problem right there! You need more counters and sinks!

My wife only let me have one sink devoted to my coffee station, so I’m out of luck on that front.

That Rogan clip was the epitome of "all accusations are confessions", and that level of un-self-awareness is painful and infuriating.

I read about some right wing podcaster (don't ask me who. I don't care.) complaining about people going on about European architecture and sculpture give too short a shrift to American architecture and sculpture, which he contends is far superior to Europe's.

The example he included in his rant was the Statue of Liberty.

Ta, Rebecca. Ta, Martini. Good day, beloved Wonketteers. I love and appreciate you all and I bless us all with love, health, peace, and grace. Happy Boxing Day, second day of Christmas, 18th day of Chanukah, or whatever's on your calendar. All-but-full moon was amazing here in the Catskills; it's full early tonight and we'll be watching. Darling fiancé Meccalopolis and I are hanging out in flannel pajamas and drinking tea; it's now official that I didn't get COVID-19 when he did, so we can enjoy our winter vacation.

Please, please stay safe. Wear a mask or two, wash your hands, sanitize when you cannot wash and let the sanitizer dry completely, stop touching your face, take Vitamin D, get the new vaccine as soon as you're able, avoid indoor and crowded outdoor gatherings and when you must meet, remove masks only to eat, drink, and take quick photos, and stay the fuck away from me and anyone with whom you do not share a roof. Do this because you love yourself, and because I love you, too. Do this in memory of dear departed Treg among over seven million dead worldwide. Do this to honor the nurses and other frontline medical personnel, especially ICU Hera Mrs Land Shark RN. Stay safe.

Slava Ukraini. 🌻🇺🇦💙💛

"This is hilarious: Broke-ass RNC spent $250,000 on limousines."

How did they manage to keep it so low?? Surely there are more than 5 people in the RNC, how did the rest of them get around?

( $50,000/ride sounds like about the level of limousine service they would expect. )

They should fire Ronna R̶o̶m̶n̶e̶y̶ McDaniel and replace her with Ron DeSantis. He spends more on private jets than television ads.

You can't win this thing unless you go big.

I wonder if these rides included chauffeuring Roodles to his arraignments and trials? It seems like the champagne and suites lifestyle, ie J6 fraudulent permit pulling grifters, is taking a $$$ toll. 💙
