Anything you were happy to see? What's your biggest snub? Or, are you like me and didn't see any of the movies to begin with?
Okay, not really, but! But! this dish proves that kale isn't a joke being played on us by the hip kids. (As you may may have guessed, I'm a kale skeptic, but this was super delish) I adapted this recipe from here.
You'll need - ->
Method - ->
slice and dice the onion, shallot, garlic, and jalapeño (seed and devein if you're worried about heat). Chop up the sausage into tiny bits. Heat a bit of oil in a dutch oven or deep soup pot. Brown the sausage and remove from the pan, add the onion, shallot, jalapeño, garlic, dash of Worcester, pinch of salt, black pepper, and cajun seasoning (The spice level is a dealer's choice thing, you do you). Add a bit more oil and sauté until veg is translucent and soft. Add the kale, spinach, 1 1/2 cup water, 2 cups stock, and one can of light coconut milk (you can use the unleaded type here and the end product will be .... extra) and wilt the greens (5-10 minutes over medium heat). Remove the greens to a blender (or use your immersion blender) and add a cup (or more) of the pot liquor and blend the greens until smooth. I used a vitamix to really, truly ensure that I wouldn't encounter a single, recognizable piece of kale when finally consuming this dish.......Return the puree to the pot, stir to combine, add potato dice and simmer until the potato is tender - about 10 minutes or so. Add the shrimp and continue to simmer until the shrimp are cooked through. Add tiger file and thyme, and rinse the crab meat, remove the pot from the heat, add the crab meat and ring the dinner bell. Adjust for salt, serve over rice with lemon. Kale, not all bad. I still skipped the okra. Okra is still gross.
Since my hospitalization last year, I've been trying things to build back stomach and other muscles.
The first exercise was 20 Coins. I have a dish of miscellaneous foreign coins that I pour on the floor, and have to pick up one at a time, alternating hands.
The most recent one I'm doing now is picking golf balls out of a bowl at the base of the stairs, the "cup" being exactly 4 inches deep. So I have to bend down further than I'm used to. I found that on a recent trip to Vail that I didn't have the range of motion to get the ball out of the cup after putting. So after 3 days now I'm up to 6 golf balls! My goal is 18 balls.
Well, there's certainly been a flurry (not "Fleury") of activity on the Twins' 40 man. First, we pause a bit to reflect on the state of the Wild season, then dive into the Arraez trade. We were about to wind things down, but then news of the Taylor trade came in and Nibbish ran across town to discuss that trade with us.
We also had some time to go over some recent videos, such as:
Little Luis has left the Twins. We used an old SBG gimmick from long, long ago to remember Eddie Rosario two winters ago, and surely Arraez deserves a story as well. Write your six word story about Luis Arraez We can have a poll for the best one.
This February 1941 menu (click to embiggen) for the Warner Bros. Studio Cafe made the social media rounds recently. I thought it would be fun to see what everyone would order if deposited back on the Warner’s lot. To keep it fun, let’s limit ourselves to a $1.05 tab (equivalent to $22.00 in December 2022). Gratuity will be covered by the advanced being that sends us back in time. If folks enjoy this, maybe it’s an occasional feature.
What’ll ya have, Mac?
Okay, pretty sure everyone knows the score. If you've never volunteered, we'd love to have you. Plus, you get to skip to the head of the line!
If you've a preferred time of year, let me know. Spin the black circle, friends.
Well, at least the 2022 part was correct! Anyway, great job, everyone. Turned out real well. A lot of the songs were pretty heavy on minutes and seconds, so we couldn't get too deep into the weeds on 2nd and 3rd selections. Also, like a Supreme Court justice and porn, I don't know the exact time when a song becomes too long to include, but I can tell you that 15 minutes is probably a bit too long... We've got to keep these things somewhat trimmed.
Anyway, enjoy, everyone!
