  1. We've had several rounds of green beans harvested and one more batch is flowering and then that's the last of them. Tomatoes haven't ripened but are coming online soon. Lettuce is almost finished. I'm forgoing the peppers this year which is causing some regrets but after last year's heat and busy schedule I'm going to stop after the tomatoes, cukes, and zucchini are finished and hold out until fall on more veggies and just keep the flowers maintained during the worst of July/Aug.
  2. Grilled pork chops, grits, greens, and Gibsons. It's almost the weekend...
  3. With his ten children and Supercharger Womb Room, I like how Elon is at least attempting to help his fanbois visualize what a uterus (and vagina) looks like even if it's not quite as accurate or as pleasurable as the real thing.
  4. Switched to fiction and read The God of Small Things (1997) by Arundhati Roy. Winner of the Booker Prize that same year (with some controversy) it was a compelling fascinating novel. Really enjoyed the author's method of narrative. Took some getting used to, but it worked for me as the story unfolded.
  5. ...and I'm sure the response is overwhelmingly positive and, unlike the cybertruck, enthusiastic about being washed.
  6. Incredulity, It was just a little bit after that; the first vaccines for measles were licensed around the early 60s and the school requirement came around somewhat slowly a few states at a time until pretty much all had various requirements by the early 70's. interestingly enough after there was an outbreak in Texarkana, where the measles cases among Texas children were twelve times that of Arkansas children (Arkansas had the school requirement but Texas did not), Texas got on board. By the time Carter was president, the nation was aiming for herd immunity. However, other vaccines were required for school much earlier in the 20th century such as smallpox, diphtheria, and polio.
  7. Maybe not every day, but pass me the punjabi samosa platter and a plate of mutter paneer and stand back.
  8. It isn't a new movie, but we saw H Is For Happiness (2019) last evening and it was oddball, charming, sad, and hilarious. It reminded me of the Netflix movie, Dumplin,' with Jennifer Anniston in that it takes a serious topic and its effects from the perspective of the child/teen. it's a good watch. The two movies share something else but you gotta watch it for that. Here's a trailer:
  9. It's a large country. Much history, but you're entitled to your opinion.
  10. One thing about the new Twitter/X is that without authentic verification, the Nazis can easily have multiple accounts similar to what this woman did with hers. She has at least 3 accounts apparently. People did that on the Dorsey version as well, but there was an attempt at least to minimize some of the damage due to bot swarms of hate, etc. *you're
  11. It's Monday which is that ugh, meeting day where the asshats that can't get their ish together send out the agenda about two hours before the meeting so yeah, martinis are a good plan while dinner is cooking. Cocktail: martinis with Hayman's Extra Dry London gin, Noilly Prat vermouth, and a pick with 3 Mezzetta Spanish Queen Martini Olives served with wonton soup--celery, carrots, onions, parsley from the garden, and chicken broth. Four more days to the weekend but who's counting? I guess I am!
  12. Sigh. So that's how it is in their family. j/k
