Hapoy Mothers Day, ladies. Enjoy your day. You've earned it.

The Maternal Parental Unit called and checked in for her well wishes, and to bitch about how her phone isn't sending the texts that she writes. I suggested a reboot.


"How do I do that?"

"Same way I showed you last time."

"I need for you to show me again."

"Ask your grandson. That's what we have grandkids for."

Would it not have made more sense to eat her at home?

Well, no sex with her anymore, but still friends.

Upon self inflection I realize how shy, quiet, and demure I am. I have to learn to be more involved with people and come out of my shell.

Give it sometime your doing fine here

Never look a gift horse in the mouth. Or so they say.

I subscribe to a recipe/food thingie which spams my inbox with recipes. I was looking at email and thinking about supper and saw this simple tomato-n-pasta thing, so I opened it, modified it a bit in my head, and then made it.


1 pound of angel hair
2 28oz cans of diced tomatoes. I'm changing brands and had some store brand cans to use. Fresh is better.
2-3 tablespoons of mixed garlic - I use the jar shit - it's already minced and it gets 'er dunn
1 diced small onion - didn't call for it, but I love it.
2 tablespoons olive oil - I probably used closer to 4.

Put the oil in a pan and add heat. put in the garlic (and onion) and cook to clear, not brown. Put the pasta on boil - mine takes 10 minutes. While the pasta boils, open and drain the maters and then add them to the oily onion/garlic and let them simmer. When the pasta is done, drain it but don't rinse it. Put it back in the pot and then add the pan's contents to it and mix it. Let that simmer another 10 minutes or so - I ran it closer to medium and stirred it for 5 minutes and then turned it to low and left it for maybe 10 minutes more. Dish some out on a plate, add some grated cheese, and have at it. Simple and tasty, and single people like me will have leftovers for days.


e/t/a: I also added a bit of salt, some black pepper, a bit of Dash, and about a tablespoon of Italian seasoning. That does make a difference.

That sounds de-lish!

That sounds de-lish!

Getcher butt over here and have some of these easily nuked leftovers. I have enough for a few more meals.


How was your day???

Hey B2 Environment Canada issued this weather advisory for today..
Conditions will be favourable for the development of funnel clouds today.These types of funnel clouds are generated by weak rotation under rapidly growing clouds or weak thunderstorms. This weak rotation is normally not a danger near the ground. However, there is a chance that this rotation could intensify and become a weak landspout tornado.Landspout tornadoes do not usually cause significant damage but can still be dangerous. They can be strong enough to topple trees, damage roofs or toss debris short distances.Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ONstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #ONStorm.

I didn't think you guys got tornados up there!

Anyone want one? It doesn’t go with coffee though…

Me! Me! Me!

Me! Me! Me!

Wine is a beverage made from grapes.
Grapes are a fruit.
Wine is fruit juice

Yes we do here I live in the deep south of Canada further south than places in the United States if you look at a map.

 

[pmichael]

You can't miss a minute, Michael!

I know. When I sign back on, I have to go back so far, I feel dyslexic.

 

[Lilianna23]

There's no crying in ... um, nevermind!

Morning everyone!View attachment 2344084

I'd fail cause I never drink coffee.

 

[Lilianna23]

I'm completely with you on that.
Shocking but not everyone in the food industry understands the difference between "Ick" and "If I eat this, call 911".
If they're receptive and nice about it, I'll try to approach it as a teachable moment. If not, I just stick with my water and dip into my "emergency food items" in my car/purse to tide me if needed.
Over time I've gotten bolder - but sometimes it's just easier to dodge the whole thing.

Generally, I just don't order anything that might have an allergen in/on it. And, like you, I'll offer education. However, in my old age, I've no fucks left to give!

This might be an unpopular opinion but Krispy Kreme are terrible donuts (coffee too). Donuts have an almost plastic texture

I think the glazed donuts are yummy to eat but a short time after . . . I'm left w/ a bad after taste that I don't care for.

Don't get rid of any cheaters just in case. My sister had both her eyes done. She needs cheaters when she eats. Her dinner plate is fuzzy and everything else is clear as a bell.

They're all over my house! I even have super-industrial magnifiers I wear to do my nails.
