  1. since when is stupid Arkansas and Mizzou so heated? πŸ˜†
  2. my mom made this cake my entire life. before her anorexia it was my niece's favorite thing as a child... once when she was like seven my mom made one and wrapped it in fancy cellophane with a bow and gave it to her as a Christmas present πŸ˜„ simpler, easier times ❀️ i love having it in mom's original handwriting... my adds this year: about 1t vanilla to butter/sugar; sprinkled a tiny bit of brown sugar in bottom of the buttered bundt pan before i added the batter to get just a little caramel-y on the bottom(top); and obviously the drizzle of cream cheese icing 😊 everybody went nuts over it last year, so i'll report back on the modifications πŸ˜›
  3. same here...S1 was great and S2 was absolutely outstanding, but i just couldn't get into S3/S4. im all in on this one. intense! fantastic cast. loving the soundtrack! also i don't know if she's had any work done, if so it's good/subtle...but JJL looks great.
  4. yeah, that's a fucking pit bull 😑 if he's been wandering the neighborhood i'm shocked somebody hasn't put a bullet in him.
  5. not hosting this year but bringing cornbread dressing (ready for the oven in the morning), mashed pots... and the same pumpkin cake i made for the first time last year, my late mom's recipe. but of course this year i put my own spin on it 😁
  6. well my parents were in junior high, so...😊 but i was just there! waiting to go to Love a few weeks ago, had a couple hours to spare...twas a beautiful day... 'that book suppository building, sir!'
  7. ha! that is completely false in my experience... the Gen Zers in my life have LOTS of political opinions and frankly won't shut up about them πŸ˜„
  8. definitely... his audience is like 65% female. he may end up wishing he never got a Netflix special πŸ˜†
  9. there are few culinary failures i hate more than a disappointing cinnamon roll 😠 (dry/hard, packed with raisins, not enough cinnamon, bad icing, etc.) maybe bad calamari. i will not hesitate to send that shit back.
  10. i know but i doubt he was doing blue humor as a 14 year old πŸ€”
  11. i'm guessing either the waitress with a black eye bit or his special needs friend with the giant dick? (or both) he did finish with basically daring 'them' to cancel him, maybe they will πŸ€” i laughed some but overall i def enjoy his crowd work more than his scripted set, he's a lot better off the cuff imo. you can tell he's still young and working on it. as for being 'offensive', he didn't even come close to the 'offensive' line of a Bill Burr, Louis CK, Sarah Silverman, Chapelle, etc...all of whom i love. of course they are all funnier, more seasoned and have way more comedic capital, so we'll see if he can survive his dare lol.
  12. as a Texpat i would love a Taco Cabana option πŸ˜’
  13. Texzilla's recipe is way fancier than the one i followed lol roux of about a cup each oil/flour, worked it until it was kind of a dark tan (my gumbo would have been closer to chocolate). added about 1/2-1 c each onion, celery, red bell pepper. 2 minutes...added andouille sausage. 2 more minutes...added 4 cloves chopped garlic, two bay leaves and spice mix, which honestly my mate did the whole mise en place so i don't know the exact measurements 😊 but it was the basics: pepper, cayenne, celery seed, garlic powder, thyme, oregano, cajun seasoning, etc...and the one thing i do remember bc i had to double check his work bc it seemed like too much but it was correct - 2 T paprika πŸ˜„ (no salt bc broth and cajun seasoning both had plenty). let all that cook long enough for garlic to soften, then added about 4 cups greens (just collard and mustard), then broth (chicken) to cover, nestled the smoked turkey wing in there, lowered heat to simmer, and left it alone for a couple hours. it was meant as a side, but it was so good and meaty we're have leftovers tonight over rice with cornbread 😊
  14. tech had a 10-6 record against aggy in the Big12. someone may want to remind them of that lol
  15. you've been in hospice for literally months and your spouse goes before you do. wow. bet he was hanging on just to let her pass first, and he'll be right behind. πŸ’”
