Wait...what?
I would presume that, upon having sex with an older nurse, every single 15 year old male would rate the experience a solid "eleventeen."

No they were separately served, but now I wish she had.
Bread based casseroles are some of my favorite "bad foods". Once or twice a year I'll make a breakfast one with 2 cans of crescent rolls, cream cheese, and spicy breakfast sausage.
Yeah, my kids still love frozen rolls.
A good canned biscuit base on an egg casserole or, even better, those frozen hash browns as a base is some pretty greasy good eats.

My absolute favorite dish growing up when served with canned green beans and frozen rolls. I believe mom made it with cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom though.
Did she put the beans, rolls and cream of chicken in a casserole and bake it? Or just the beans and soup?

These discussions of terrible Texas Foodways overlap a lot with "midcentury foodways" of the US as a whole.
And along those lines, for years, my wife and I have toyed with throwing a potluck party with the theme of "low-rent midcentury favorites." We will supply trays of baked fish sticks and ketchup, and giant bowls of Kraft mac and cheese made right from the box. Others should bring....whatever favorites they can think of. PB&J made with cheap welch's grape jelly on Wonder bread? Hell yes. Fried spam sandwiches....jello dishes....cheap chocolate pudding....all of it.
One of my staples growing up was a chicken and rice casserole with four-ish frozen chicken breasts, two cups of rice, two cans of cream of mushroom soup, and two cups of water. Season liberally with Seasoned Salt (Morton's Nature Seasons), cover in foil and bake at 350 for about 1.5 hours. I made it for years after I got married and really like the cream of mushroom/rice combination. Fancy it up by adding a can of mushrooms. I recognize it for what it is (mid-century casserole/back of soup can recipe fare) and haven't made it in years. But it outkicked the coverage for some time after it should have been retired.

Yeah, it's because they're not a Texas thing. They were common across the entire US and especially in the Midwest and South reaching peak popularity in the 50s and 60s. They were still around but dying in popularity in the 70s and 80s. If you weren't regularly going to church socials in your childhood then you could have missed them entirely.
They're actually derived from a very old style of dish called an aspic that has been popular in France and other European countries for centuries and remains an important regional dish in some places. It has a savory gelatin surrounding meat, fish, eggs, and/or vegetables.
So if anything, congealed salads are an awful French foodway.
Right. I'm aware of aspic and recall the early Simpsons episode where everyone brought jello salad with marshmallows to Mr. Burns's party.
-
I've lived in Texas my entire life (50+ years), and never to my recollection have I ever been presented with the opportunity to eat a congealed salad (although I'm sure it was an option at Luby's or something).

No surprise, but Tyler got a shit-ton of rain today and no tornados or derechos.

We did pigs in a blanket with Vienna sausages wrapped in crescent roll dough. Hot out of the oven, slather on some butter, I was in heaven.
Probably not as good now as I remember.
My neighbor upstairs my senior year at UT had a girlfriend who would make these for us while we sat their and drank beer. There's no way they're as good as I remember them. But they're probably pretty good.

Two dolls instead of thirty dolls
Hey Kevin, about an hour ago.
Two dolls instead of thirty. Because the children have too much.
Also, who rides a lion? I mean, honestly?

Maybe you're getting the stringless variety? This lady says they have no flavor but it's the internet, so...
No, usually I buy French green beans, which definitely are string beans. I cook them like my mom did, which probably softens them up enough so I don't notice my mistake. They are delicious in any event.

Arguably one of the best.

I didn't know you had to string green beans. I've only done it for snow peas.
Me either. I've always just snapped the ends.

My dad used to softly tap his leather belt.
When I was about that age, my dad was 73. He was a quiet authority figure, and my mom was management, which including handing out discipline. So my dad and I were in a fishing boat, and he was talking to me about something that got under my skin, and I popped off to him. And before I even had a chance to regret that decision, he tapped me on the chin with two fingers and said, "Don't ever talk to me like that again.". I sat up straight, shut up, and apologized.
He never once hit me. He didn't have to. He was in charge, and we all knew it.
My mom, on the other hand, spanked my ass on a few occasions. I don't resent her for it. I probably had it coming. The last such time, I put some distance between us and negotiated to the point of her putting that elastic belt down and taking a few steps back so we could talk.

If there are any underlying neurological problems like dementia, Alzheimer's, or Parkinson's, it often "kicks the ant bed"
My mom has Parkinson's, and once, she was being transported to the ER and was given a mild sedative because, by all appearances, she needed it. "Kicks the ant bed" is the correct analogy. She was not in her right mind for days and it's probably the closest we have come to losing her since the beginning of this long goodbye called Parkinson's.

Is the TL/DR version of the Mac n Cheese recipe "I went to Luby's" on Midway and picked it up? Because that sounds solid if so.

I know it's reality TV and, therefore, completely fake. But that was ridiculous.

Does it show up to the other guy the same as an iPhone? Can you edit texts that have been sent?
No. You can just assign text bubble colors on your end. And so far, we cannot edit texts or respond to specific texts in a group chat.
I did have the distinct pleasure the other day in telling a friend who was bitching about the quality of the video that he sent the group that if his iphone could run IOS 18, he now was allowed to send good videos. Alas, he had to admit that his iphone was too old to run IOS18.

any of y'all ever seen a Martin electric in the wild? I have not.
Kevin from Soulhat has one. It was his first electric and he recently refurbished it and has used it live.
