Home cooking is the shiznit
Asked my wife what she wants for dinner tonight. Pizza, which is a PITA for me (make the dough and sauce from scratch) but...happy wife and all that
Whoa! Yeah, Pizza is one of those things that we leave to the pro's. A LOT of work. She was Southern born, and used to fried everything. I had Euro parents, so I was used to more ethnic fare. I was the chef when we had parties, and got lots of compliments. She caught on to my secret REAL quick. I can still hear her saying it. "Sure, awesome is EASY when you're using amazing ingredients". That was it. She stole the method, and we never looked back. I can hella cook when I want to, but she's funny about that. She doesn't like the competition.
Lol! Was that for me? Sorry

Ain't that the fucking truth!
And on top of it the accountant charged me damn near 5 figures!
Reminds me of this scene from The Bee Movie, just exchange lawyer for accountant and government.

My wife was quite similar and my background is total Slavic and French Canadian. I've actually made Tex Mex perogies (pot stickers to you 'Mericans). I use to tease my wife about rice and beans being her go to food (raace and bans!) but I've converted her to Tourtiere and Chicken Paprikash.
I make a mean grilled cheese. Threw ham and beans in the crock pot yesterday. I are a chef 
Oh man, haven't had Tourtiere since I was a KID. That's good stuff! Another thing we used to have regularly, that I never see anywhere, is rouladen. Come on! Steak and bacon rolled up into lil pinwheels? You'd think that would be a thing...

Yesterday was national grilled cheese day! The Mrs. put out a spread of lil french bread Grilled Cheeses, with all kinds of different ones. Gruyere, Swiss, provolone, aged cheddar. It was GOOD, dammit!
May the USPS go fuck themselves for sending my VaporBeast vape mail into the San Diego black hole 10 days ago.

I can sympathize. Checked my Indiana originated shipment this morning. Shit, I should just went and picked it UP. Bastages sent the package BACKWARDS to the CHICAGO black hole. I was hoping to see it tomorrow. Definitely not happening before Monday. I think it's their way of saying "See, ya shoulda bought Priority". ACK! It wasn't an option!

It's not that simple because a compliment can be overruled by something we did a decade ago

Hahaha.... reminds me of a joke I heard recently that, despite having 3 females around here, so personally being VERY sensitive to misogyny, made me laugh my ass off..
The other one I like, is, once she has a few years in, she's gonna call on shit that happened 3 years ago.. lol...

My Boreas isn't here yet
And since we are on the subject of women, and this is VU and I can say whatever the hell I please mostly...
I think it is wonderful that this country FINALLY put a minority in the White House. Obama is NOT my cup of tea, but it needed doing. What is fucking SAD though, is that this country elected a minority BEFORE a Woman. I wish Condoleezza Rice had run against Obama. I would have been more active for THAT election than I EVER have. THREE things in one candidate. Two we have NEVER had, and one that we haven't had in a VERY long time. Black, Female, and AWESOME.

Can't like that, Cheese...My Boreas isn't here yet
So it seems I shouldn't have said this without reading coolerat's earlier post. It was most definitely NOT my intention to wish the USPS a good morning. So I hereby rescind my above quoted GFY and instead wish for the USPS to kiss my ass. I hope that doesn't also count as a greeting...May the USPS go fuck themselves for sending my VaporBeast vape mail into the San Diego black hole 10 days ago.

I'm freaking out man!!
I definitely agree about Condoleezza Rice!
I was hoping she would run at the time, she is very smart and does not take shit! She would have people crying after she told them the deal!

I ordered delightful shit... well, SOME (non-shitty) shit... yesterday. But none of it has shipped yet. Shit.And g'mornin' happy smily people... I know you're happy and smily because you're here and not there.
Andria
Yeah, I think it says something that she just didn't want the job. Didn't want to be the most powerful person in this world. I'm not sure WHAT it says, but it can't be good...

Quotes from the ignored don't show up in xenforo -- that was how I knew when stevegmu had been banned from ecf, suddenly there weren't all these nonsensical posts that seemed to come out of nowhere.

Me, too. She's a candidate I could get excited about. I've been saying that for years.

I wish I had someone that appreciated my cooking. I'm actually pretty good at it, but even when I fish for compliments ("Wow, isn't this GOOD?") all I usually get back is, "Eh, it's OK." He's a wonderful man, but he's just not that into food. My talents are wasted...
Normally, I'd agree with you on that, but as I said above, I sometimes have to go fish for them. Usually they're so small, I have to throw 'em back.

Edit should have said we don't want to ask for them
Or consume excrement and expire?So instead of saying "FUCK YOU!", you have to say "FORNICATE THYSELF!"?
Somehow I think that would get moderated on the other board.
Shhh... speak of the coprophage, and the coprophage may come...
