Yesterday was one of those unproductive days when all I really wanted to do was sit around and do nothing. That isn't what happened though. Even on my sluggard days I end up doing something.
Today temps are supposed to climb into the upper 60s (F). I need to mow my lawn. The past week of either heavy rain, or on and off showers has made it grow... and grow. This happens in the spring. My rose bushes have many buds, and so do my peonies. For the first time in 10 years both of my Itoh peonies will be blooming. Their blooms are yellow. I will take pictures.
Since I didn't have any, I ordered some red socks for cycling.
I made Chicken Saltimbocca last evening for dinner. It was a first. It looked great! However, the combination of the sage and the prosciutto was not at all to my liking. Actually, I thought it was terrible. Just because something looks tasty doesn't mean it's going to be satisfying to the palate.
While I was doing nothing yesterday, I also roasted a ham that will be used for various dishes over the next week. This afternoon I'll be using it to make cheesy scalloped potatoes and ham that I will use for lunches on this weekend.
And what about all of the continuous stream of shit about Clarence Thomas and his sow Ginni? Barely a day seems to go by when another rock isn't turned over and more shit spills out. Tuition for a foster son, or what ever he wants to call the young man? Leo Leonard sending money her way and asking that she not be identified in the payments. And I really don't mind throwing more water on that wet blanket they chose to cower under, but these two individuals are supposed to be devout Christians. I'm wondering if they view all these bribes as Blessings? There are Cracker Jack Crazies out there who are like that? Believing God reward them for being what many consider selfish. Who cares about ethics when there's an open checkbook waiting to pay your way through the Pearly Gates.
And evidently Trump had another one of his confidential golf course meetings in Scotland. This one was very hush hush, not like the one in the rain in North Carolina... or was it Georgia, last year. There was no wild ride on golf carts like at that meeting. Nope. There were not a lot of people. Many are thinking this was because of his rape trial. You know? The one where, while in Ireland, he bragged about how he could go and testify? The one where the judge in charge of the trial, hearing those comments told Trump he now has until Sunday to show up and testify? Oops.
Oh, and not surprisingly, an important insider in the document case who was at Mar a Lago has flipped. Oops!
It's getting warmer! Yay!
ReplyDeleteHey, mowing the lawn is good exercise!
And I'm not surprised we keep learning about Clarence (and his sow). You just KNOW there's much more there than meets the eye. Most probably same with the other 'conservative' and 'christian' judges. Wait for shit on the raping, drunken frat boy.
And gotta love that Mango Mussolini always runs his mouth. Can't wait for Sunday. After his Mob Boss meeting, I'm sure he's refreshed.
XOXO
Evidently the Orange Douche is back in the USA. I doubt if he'll testify, that would leave him open to cross examination.
DeleteIf all this continues with Clarence Thomas, I do not know how he continues on the Supreme Court. It'll be just another one of the things where our country is letting somebody get away with it. I just cannot comprehend how so many people are getting away with this crooked activity.
ReplyDeleteWhen cooking I learned long ago a little bit of sage goes a long way
Oh my, the recipe called for way too much sage. I might try it again without the sage, and put it in a cream sauce.
DeleteI hadn't followed much of what is going on with Clarence Thomas but the little I have heard - wow!! Just wow!
ReplyDeleteFor someone who's supposed to be a devout Christian, he's proven that he can be easily bought.
DeleteFrom Scotland Thing 45 said he wanted to confront E. Jean Carroll because it should be illegal in America to put on trial a politician with 40% support. His words.
ReplyDeleteButch'are on trial, Blanche, butch'are.
And lets do the same to Clarence and his, for lack of a better word, wife.
By not showing up, he loses the option of calling for a mistrial.
Delete“Justice” Boar Hog and Mrs. Sow. True despicables.
ReplyDeleteYou should got a lot done for doing nothing, Dave. It is beyond bonkers that Clarence Thomas still has a gig. Me thinks the corruption is so deep and widespread that he is just the tip of the iceberg so they can't afford for him to go down.
ReplyDeleteI'm in total agreement with you on the
DeleteSupreme Court corruption, and I think there may be more than one iceberg.
