I made scrambled eggs and wanted to try using Bourdain’s recipe. Put a twist on it and used crème fraiche instead of sour cream. Mixed the eggs in with sweet peppers, white bottoms of green onions, & bacon & then topped it with goat cheese & green onions.
And now I have a new way of making eggs.

Just warms my cold little heart to hear that a former coworker, who had numerous harassment allegations against him, has been fired from his new job for being a dick and is now scrambling to find an FD and can’t because the word is out on how toxic he is.

These are not original thoughts. This is LTC Mike Steele conducting a 30 year crusade against special operations forces and relaxed grooming standards.
Hegseth: "We don't need to be a military of beardos anymore. Do you know how many troops claim to be Nordic Pagan? No, suddenly it's become this real fake religious affiliation inside the Pentagon where troops came to be Nordic Pagan so they can grow a beard and nobody challenges them on it."

Swap out the Peters signage for hers.
This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working.
We need new leaders in the Senate.

Warren needs to lead the charge to oust Schumer. Unacceptable to cave.

Motörhead’s Eat The Rich was playing in the background of a Reel this morning and my youngest, who kept me up until 1130 last night, looked over and started bopping her head to it.

Another big result: a $265M bond measure passed for Des Moines Public Schools for infrastructure repair. It was in quite the perilous spot after the superintendent debacle and a hard push by local conservative to kill it as a way to punish the school board.

I’m going to write “The Art of Fatherhood” and the first chapter is going to be titled The Battle of Cooking in the Kitchen.
First lesson: Invest in a larger kitchen or learn to flow gracefully around the toddler intent on opening all the cabinets and the child making a PB & Skittles sandwich.
