Steak Diane was a success! Gifts were enjoyed & the pups are worn out, as am I. Phew! Dishes are mostly done but I got bored. Now I try my hash oil vape & relax, just as Jesus would want. Merry Christmas y'all!
Oh, another great idea for movie night: "Kedi" about the millions of cats who are universally beloved and which have lived freely in Istanbul for thousands of years.
Okay, now there's something from the Nigerian government:
A spokesperson for the Nigerian foreign ministry confirmed the U.S. strike Thursday evening, saying that “precision hits on terrorist targets in Nigeria by air strikes” had been carried out in response to the “persistent threat of terrorism and violent extremism.”
“Terrorist violence of any form, whether directed at Christians, Muslims or other communities remains an affront to Nigeria’s values,” the statement from spokesperson Kimiebi Imomotimi Ebienfa said. (Washington Post)
Let's see, you spend 364 days talking about invading oil rich countries and taking their oil, and then 1 day on "O NOEZ TEH XTIANS" and start unprovoked attacks against the 10th largest oil reserve in the world.

My roasted pork loin and potatoes came out very well. Had to use a large sized cast iron frying pan to roast them in. Didn't use the crock pot this time.
Quartered a bad of small potatoes. Had a 3lb pork loin. A bit of olive oil over the meat, added a dry rup of spices and seasonings, a package of French onion soup mix, 2oz of BBQ sauce, a bit of Panda Express Spicy Glaze mix. A light coating of olive oil in the frying pan. The meat and potatoes in the pan, covered lightly with aluminum foil (tight enough to prevent splattering, loose enough to allow the meat to roast), in the oven at 375F for 1 hour.
About an hour of prep time. An hour's cooking time. Eating and clean-up was about an hour. Very easy to do. Meat was a bit dryer and firmer than using a crock pot, but the flavor was better, and the sauce from the drippings was much better.
Ziggywiggy, thank you for the heads up about your identity being stolen on Substack. I did receive a join notice from you earlier today, but I didn't notice that the person had spelled your name wrong. They are no longer appearing on my subscription list, so Substack might have taken them down.
I mean no harm to anyone who plays, but goddamn, my husband found his guitar. Oh fuck. The last time he undertook this, he would thought he could practice in our room while I was getting ready for bed, which was a bad idea. He's a little drunk, and I told him that he has to play outdoors, tonight. It's a mild evening and IMO, guitars were meant to be heard from over there, not in the same small room. And playing songs is a whole different story from tuning up and playing the same lick ninety-nine times.
I have a friend who learns everything from books- taught herself how to swim by reading about it...anyways, she taught herself how to play violin and she said she knew she was getting it when the cats stopped running from the room when she would pick it up...

Don't they have the Boko Haram terrorists who kidnapped those school girls there...?
I just hope they didn't blow them up in the bargain.
How much in resources will Trump bill them for…?

Anyone who thought Trump wasn’t going to bomb people on Christmas Day hasn’t been paying attention.

To be fair, he faked us out with all the threats to Venezuela.
He will expect a peas prize for this.
What I like about cooking with good wine is using a recipe that calls for only a quarter of the bottle. Don’t want to risk the rest spoiling.
I always take a deep breath over the reduction.
Well, obviously, and what if it somehow was poisoned? You would need to quality check to make sure.
That would be bad. You know what to do!

Hope that they didn't cause any problems for you.
Merry Christmas.
Thanks BlueSpot! My concern is that they scam people using my name.
Merry Christmas Blue Spot!
I remember the halcyon days of yore when the usage of "stealing my name on
substack" would have had people asking "What the fuck does that mean?"
LOL, oh yeah. I have learned a lot
Thank you!
If I see them using your name, I'll let you know.
Hope that you and Harry had a good day. Did you have a white Christmas?
It usually snows most every day, but not today of course!
Is this the Open Thread now?
Thanks.

At least it's not bagpipes.
Got something against bagpipes?

As GB Shaw observed, "Hell is full of amateur musicians." Making music soothes the brain, but you really need to go out to the barn with that.
My father wanted to learn the banjo.
It was hilarious because you knew every time he just picked it up. Didn't have to play a note. It was gonna be scales and shit.
Dad picks up banjo.
Tick ... tick ... tick ... nine seconds later the cat flap goes as the cat FUCKING RUNS FOR IT to get away
Hehe I'm teaching myself mandolin with a banjolin.
Its all the ease-of-learning of a mandolin with all the pleasing tones of a banjo.
The cats here also highly disapprove of stringed instruments.
My cat runs for it at the sound of my trombone coming off the stand. He doesn't wait for me to start playing.
I have a friend who learns everything from books- taught herself how to swim by reading about it...anyways, she taught herself how to play violin and she said she knew she was getting it when the cats stopped running from the room when she would pick it up...
🙏😂🎸
Good to see you.
Good to stop by.
Sorry to have missed this one, but...napping.
Am watching Sisu now, though, and enjoying the festive "mine field" scene.
I love holiday films.

Donald Trump is hate personified.
Well, there's supposed to be an election between now and next Christmas, so I expect to be a lot merrier than this year.
Sure thing, pedotard.
Oh, and he forgot to thank us for Paying Attention to this Matter.
"Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleezebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein, you are forever in my heart. We need to party like old times. Call me."
That weight he's carrying will someday kill him.
When, though? I need to make sure I have all my party supplies ready. And the giant cake. I don’t want stale cake.
I'm storing party supplies like a fucking prepper!
