did you tell me your marine likes beets? i roasted beets yesterday! per Paula’s instructions, she makes them all the time. I wondered if it was just us hunkies that like beets. you clean them and cut them from the greens etc. and rub them with oil and sprinkle with sea salt, wrap them in a little cocoon of foil in a pan and roast at 350 for like an hour or so. she uses the juice to make pickeled eggs. i am not a fan of those, but it’s a true polack dish and she loves those too.

I can’t understand why there’s always this argy-bargy about lip-synching by Beyonce- be-bouncy and other “artists” at major events.

A+++ no idea why. i thought she did fine. my daughter’s bf said he thought the outfits were kind of whorish, but i said that the June Taylor dancers on the Jackie Gleason show wore that kind of stuff, as do the Rockettes if i am not mistaken. i didn’t think they were bad.

While my husband is very easy to feed and will try almost anything without complaint, he refuses to eat asparagus or beets. I did roast a beet for myself recently and liked it. I did a very similar process but without the foil.

I think almost all entertainers have canned music at an event like the Super Bowl - but I think Beonynce or whatever her name is pretended to be singing live at the Coronation, which is why there was an uproar.

The eternal argy-bargy between the Leftists
and the Forces of Light goes on as it has
from times immemorial!

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!




Keep Faith with the Fallen of Benghazi! Let the Obama Regime, for once, tell the Truth!

Fiat Justitia, Ruat Coelum!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

How many singers bow down their heads and keep hitting the notes? She did it throughout her act, she had to be lip syncing again.

62 and cloudy here, with rain maybe in the next day or two-

The argy-bargy going on
About people being armed
Is mostly being ginned up
By the willfully misinformed

The driveby media swoons again
With each stupid sentence spoken
Thinking because someone ran mad
The whole world must be broken

They drag out a disabled person
And yell over here-come and see-
Using someone’s dire misfortune
Just gets a negative from me...

To use someone who is dosabled is surely a sin-I thought it when James Brady wasa wheeled oput by the anti gun bunch, and I think it now. Shame, shame on Gifford’s husband and her so-called party...

You’d really think I’d spell “disabled” right, wouldn’t you?

I’m using “dosabled” as tomorrow’s word. It’s when you get your medicine and are then able to function. ;-)
