I realize that we are all "friends," if we are anything at all.

But you are risking becoming a frienemy of mine if:

1.   I get more than 1 blogwhoring email per day.

2.   You are blogwhoring me and we are not even aquainted.  Aquainted means that I have made a… Read full post »

And of course that old stand-by, bitches.

All names that evoke animals.  MILF is particularly disheartening.  Kind of like milking an old cow and kinda dehumanizing to the point of just being ahole in a wall at the same time.

Men do not have names like this.  If we all had… Read full post »

No snacks.  Real housewives in New York are rail thin and would not approve.

Except Bethenny.  But you would not want to eat any of the things she thinks are awesome.  There is no cheese involved.

In the following, "Ok" means "I cannot believe how awful these people are.  Real&nbs… Read full post »

These terms are both linked to Scarlet O'Hara.

When a woman is wearing a fabric bell tied around her waist, any walking event becomes a sashay, as the bell sweeps gently side to side from the movement.

A lovely thing.

But when Scarlat was hyped up, she tended to… Read full post »

Whether taking her mom to Whole Foods, carrying Freaky's purse/home, or posting wildly funny posts on virtually anything that can happen to a woman living where it snows a lot, Ms. T&D has got it going on.  Deven is Freaky's ape in residence and has provided one… Read full post »

Glazes are the glass skins that cover clay bodies to make them food safe, colorful, or resistant to water.  They can be made of many combinations of flux (temperature regulating materials), alumina (minerals and chemicals that affect color and surface appearance), and glassformers… Read full post »

One regret that I have in life is that I will never feel the ultimate satisfaction of scratching my balls.

I don't have balls.  Nor anything similar to balls.  And I understand that they are some of the most sensitive things there are in the world.  So I am guessing… Read full post »

Eastern NC Chicken Pastry

This dish was traditionally made with a whole chicken and was very high in fat.  I have updated the recipe to reduce the fat and increase the richness of the broth to compensate.  Although the dish is quite easy to make, it requires… Read full post »

I am accused of saying that a woman is not actualized except by giv… Read full post »

I think that everybody, and I mean every body, man or woman should have to go back to their orginal natural age appropriate hair color for the election year.

I think we ought to be supressed from wearing make-up, woman AND men.  And all transfiguring undergarments.  No Spanks or girdles or… Read full post »

About 5 years ago, I found the ultimate diet and some very interesting things about clothes, sizes, and what about them matters.

I got really sick about 4.5 years ago.  I lost about 7 pounds a week for about 3 months before it was brought under control, another post. … Read full post »

See how when I just said you were an asshole, it made you not want to listen to me.

This was a comment in another thread and got kind of long and complicated.  So I am posting it here so as to not high-jack  his post with the vitriol that may come my way for saying this "out loud".  I expanded only slightly here.  For some reason, this post really… Read full post »
