Where I Stand...Just so We're Clear



No matter the results...

I denounce white supremacy.

I value science.

I think there is no place in our hearts for homophobia.

I think transphobia is deplorable.

I think income inequality is just shameful.

I think our military are beyond honorable.

I think our prisioners of war should be held in honor.

I believe in thinking people who don't just follow in lock step with anyone.

I believe that facts are more important than rhetoric.

I think that abelism is beyond limiting and uncalled for.

I believe in choice .

I don’t believe in abortion as birth control.

I do believe in responsible birth control options and access to these.

I find bullies abhorrent. 

I find education and critical thinking valuable. 

I think racism is horrific. 

I think sizism is just mean.

I think agism is so shortsighted. 

I think women should be whatever they want to be without the pressure of anyone deciding that.

I cannot stand cults of personality.

I cannot 100% stand behind any human being who is elected into office. 

I am the daughter of a father who lived through Nazi Germany.

I am saddened to see to see populism grab this country that I love by the throat.

I am sorry we’re in an abusive relationship with our government.

I am saddened to see so many of our country is afraid to leave their abuser. 

I pray for our country.

I pray.

I believe all paths lead to the truth regardless.

Abandonment, Fear and Thanks

I woke up today very early. My significant other and I have a young puppy so that's part of the life at this time. Disturbed sleep. I woke up and just thought well, it's Thanksgiving, let's just be thankful today. I was in a good frame of mind. I had made the decision to just be present today as much as possible. But...in the wee small hours of the morning my always present depression and anxiety had other plans. I went to message a friend of mine. I connect a lot on Facebook so I went into messenger to just let her know I was thinking about her and I couldn't find her. At first I didn't worry, I figured that she and I were both struggling with the election stress and maybe she just went dark for a bit. I get that. I understand taking the mental health break if need be. Alas, she didn't just go dark.  Upon investigation I came to understand that I had a friend in real life that I care about deeply. I would try hard to check on her and send Erik over with various...

The Foodie Review = Week Ending 08/29/20

FINDS After trying two flavors I have to admit I cannot say enough good things about Simple Creations Seasoned Beef Ribeye Steaks available at Aldi's. We've now had the chop-house seasoning and the roasted garlic and herb seasoning; and all steak cuts were under $5.00. So I could get 3 for each of us (each one is a single serve); for $15.00 in total as opposed to $15.00 for probably 1 rib eye most places. Mind you I want to get a bougie rib eye at some point from a local butcher but this girl is on a hard core budget so I have to stay focused on cheap thrills. I've followed the instructions from Alton Brown for the most part from the episode: STEAK YOUR CLAIM.  Here's the suggestions: Get yourself a Ribeye. Use a Cast Iron Pan 10 Inch - 11 Inch. When making steak, put oven at 500 bake. Put skillet in oven. Coat both sides of steak with kosher salt (I did not because they were seasoned already). Put pan on high heat for 5 minutes. Black pepper on both sides. Canola Oil a...

Best Picture "A to Z" Challenge: "C"

On the third week of my Best Picture A-Z Challenge whereby I watch an Academy Award Best Picture Winner that I have NOT yet seen for each letter of the alphabet plus a numerical entry. This week's challenge features films starting with the letter B and so here were my choices: And after all the votes were in my challenge was to watch: In 1889, adventurous lawyer and newspaper editor Yancey Cravat (Richard Dix) convinces his genteel wife, Sabra (Irene Dunne), to join him in the rush to populate Osage, Oklahoma. After they begin to settle into the community, Yancey leaves to go further west. Alone, Sabra inherits his editorial duti es and struggles to bring civilization to the rough frontier town. Over a tumultuous 40 years, the couple are repeatedly separated and reunited as Oklahoma makes its long journey to statehood. And let me tell you...this was a challenge...listen to our TWO CENTS here at:
