This past Sunday Carlos and I went to a concert in the park in  Camden and before we left I prepared everything to cook dinner once we  got home.

After the concert, which was good and it was a gloriously sunny cool day, we returned home and I set about cooking dinner. I served it and as we ate Carlos said:

“This is good.”

And I responded as I usually do:

“I know.”

That line slays; but I digress. After dinner, clearing the plates, Carlos asked what I called the dinner and I told him I didn’t know. It was a recipe I made up in my head and:

“We’ve had this before.”

“I know but my mother likes to know what we cook and so I wanted to tell her about this and  I don’t know what to call it.”

“Oh, um, call it Chorizo-Potato Hash, I guess.”

“What kind of meat is in it?”

“Chorizo.”

“I know but is there ground turkey in it.”

“No just Chorizo.”

“So no meat?”

“Chorizo is meat. What are you asking?”

“The kind of meat in—

“It’s chorizo. You know chorizo, you got me hooked on it. You grew up on it. Your mother cooked with it. It’s meat.”

“But is there ground turkey, too?”

At that point I took the frying pan from the stove and clocked him in the head. He gets it now.

'WTF? It's Monday And I'm As Happy As A Basket Of Cats

Except these two don't look so happy.......'

I don’t even know what they were looking at but whatever it was it clearly it intrigued the Boys.

Continuing her history of championing utterly pointless measures that literally no one asked for, Arkansas governor, and Mr-Former-Fake-One-Term-Twice-Impeached-Currently-Four-Time-Criminally-Indicted-Not-My-President-Gurl’s liar,  Sarah Huckleberry Sanders has banned “woke” language from state documents.

You cannot use gender neutral language—Aunt Lydia calls it “exclusionary and sexist”—like “pregnant people,” “chestfeeding,” and “womxn,” which the order says should be replaced with “pregnant women,” “breastfeeding,” and “women.” During the signing, Sanders was asked why this was so urgent and how many times the banned terms had been used in Arkansas legislation and she replied:

“Does it matter if there’s one? Is that not enough? I’m not keeping a running tally, but I have seen one specific instance and we’ve had a number of other instances that have been reported to our office.”

She’s seen one instance. It sounds to me like Governor Sister Wife is ignorant and butt-hurt.

Maybe Tennessee is changing, or maybe the town of Franklin is just saying, “We’re not like the rest of the state.’

Franklin, Tennessee voters have resoundingly rejected Gabrielle Hanson for mayor, after it became known that she openly embraced white supremacists and Christian nationalism.

It feels strange to say that a racist and faux Christian bigot was kicked to the curb in 2023 … 1923, maybe, but 2023?

As I said at the beginning, Carlos and I went to a concert in the park last Sunday, but while driving though the Historic District of Camden, we passed a house that had been surrounded by huge hedges, overgrown shrubbery, and large trees for years—see above.

But I noticed that the hedges were gone and so as we left the concert I went back up the street and found the house that had been hidden from view for so long.

Stunning, and quite large and rather old, but someone bought it and cleaned it up and turned it back to its original showgirl’s glory; it still has the original entry gate seen at the far right.

This week, still unable to agree on a Speaker, House Republicans shouted down a reporter’s question about their newly chosen speaker-designate, Louisiana Congressman Mike Johnson.

He was asked about his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election and ignored the question while That Bitch, North Carolina’s lunatic GOP Represenyative Virginia Foxx yelled:

“Shut up! Shut up!”

That’s the GOP; they do nothing, can’t agree on anything, and don’t answer questions.
