Yesterday I learned that an author who writes prose comparable to "The Eye of Argon" is romantically involved with less-skilled modern day John Taylor and somehow that figures.

[Granted Argon was written by a 16-yo pre-internet]
[Google: "John Taylor" + Charlatan]

Your 9yo sounds like my 6yo.

Cute.

However, this is an R-rated post in my feed.

Because it is not for children - definitely not for the one who played salon last night and made my husband look like Alfalfa.

Do you have a 3 sided die? You can reduce scenarios to botch- you tried to deal damage but hurt yourself, wild success, and that was interesting but didn't do anything.

No, that's André Tchaikovsky's skull. André (born Andrzej Krauthammer) was a composer and pianist who donated his skull to the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) in his will with the explicit wish that it be used as Yorick's skull in Hamlet.

Not a Nazi skull.

Having swam in the depths of the sea of grief myself with kids who still needed my full presence and attention, treading water - holding them above it as much as I could - as much as I am sure it's a superb movie, it's too close to home.

I use this marinade overnight, but I have heard restaurants leave it for 3 days(!)

When I put it in the oven I put it on a rack on top of a cookie sheet because excess marinade drops off and burns.

I have heard Nobu uses black cod/ sablefish instead of salmon.

I got the feeling that Tash was unknowing summoned by Shift.

I need to reread it.

Again, Tash is a being that has a realm outside the borders of Narnia.

Yes, it's been in the rotation of meals I make regularly for a while now, would you like the recipe?

I have frozen cooked seasoned haiga sushi rice in 1 cup containers which works well I have 3 rn, and in the past I would do mirepoix + boxed chicken stock because that's a good place to start a soup. I think i could do 4 tonight.

My son is on board!

It turns out that he loves beans and I think if I prep frozen bean, cheese, and rice burritos he will be happy. He really loved the Amy's brand.

Getting my daughter to eat anything but her safe foods is going to have to be hubs, bc I am at my limit rn.

Aldi's salmon <$20 + miso marinade with Kewpie mayo, soy, mirin, hondashi & miso, broccoli ~< $24 feeds 3 of us maybe 2 meals.

How can I sustain this when the cooking burden isn't shared?

Even the healthiest pre-prepared meals I could buy that my husband could warm up before I get home are expensive and contain ridiculous amounts of salt.
