Lately, all over the decent and humane sphere of the intertubes, people have been declaring their horror at the actions of one group of Christian women claiming to be praying for the female staff of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation to be stricken with breast cancer. Here's the link to the MRFF press release. Now at this … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Imprecatory Prayers
From the Kitchen: Chimichurri and Chili
Since I’m back on the South Beach Phase 1 at the moment, I thought I’d share a couple recipes for Phase 1 friendly foods. Now, the SoBe diet works for me. I’ve lost 30 pounds and kept it off. I even feel better on it, no or few carbs makes me feel much better. My blood … Continue reading From the Kitchen: Chimichurri and Chili
Not so polite dinner conversation – Voting, religion and the usual PA nonsense
Went and voted today here in the primary election ofPennsylvania. I had been registered independent but changed back to Democrat so I could participate.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Let People Vote

Funny how it was by registering interested voters the Obama campaign did well and took the White House and … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Let People Vote

From the Kitchen – Seafood Chowder
Even though it's been lovely outside, warm comforting foods are always good to have. This is for my husband's seafood chowder. I love various chowders but this tops them all and I've had chowder a lot of places, even up in the New England states. Last time we made it, the two of us ate … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Seafood Chowder
From the Bar – Shine
Thanks to a commenter, Doug Fo, I will have to say that Philadelphia Distilling's Shine is pretty damn fine with tart lemonade as he suggested. It makes what I would call a rather American version of a margarita. Definitely something to keep on hand during the summer.
From the Kitchen – Gobs
Whoopie Pies do not equal gobs. They might look like the same thing, cake on the outside, some filling in the inside, but consider this similarity rather like the mimicry of the Monarch and Viceroy butterflies. In my opinion, the whoopie pie is the Monarch, impressive looking, but tasting gawdawful sweet, and the gob the … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Gobs
