This is a man who hates anything of beauty, thatโ€™s growing, respected. Whether itโ€™s a rose garden, a wing of the White House, or peopleโ€ฆ. He needs to destroy it. He needs to create ugliness, hate, darkness. Just like him.

Oh man. Itโ€™s chicken paella tonight. Iโ€™m cooking the chicken pieces in ghee. They are covered in Spanish paprika and Iโ€™ve been adding more so the ghee makes a great base to cook the Spanish rice in. Adding the last of the tomatoes, peppers, and onion from the garden

We just received this as a gift. Casa Noble tequila. Aged for 37 months in oak bourbon barrels. Smooth as silk. Warms you to the core. Not an ounce of bitterness. Having a little and enjoying every sip. No lime needed with this. Just smooth tequila. Thank you, kiddo.

My grandpa would crack open the walnut shells. He and I would pick out the tasty nut pieces. The hardest part was having to wait the 24-48 hours until she would bake them. Chocolate was so rich. Walnuts tasty. Dough tasted like caramel. Great one if a kind recipe

Now my dough will need to chill for at least 24-48 hours. It is so worth the wait. Iโ€™ve never had any chocolate chip cookies like hers anywhere else. the baker uses the recipe on the back of the bag . Thereโ€™s comparison

Hereโ€™s the dough with chopped black walnut and chocolate chips included. My grandma got her chips from the local candy store. Said nestle was mostly fat and not cocoa. I use Guittard chips. She got her walnuts from under her walnut tree

The chips she bought were the leftover chocolate pieces from when the local candy store made their treats in house.

Hereโ€™s the dough after cooking the butter and making a tangzhong to add. Doesnโ€™t look like typical nestle toll house dough does it? The cookies will have a toffee flavor.

Starting a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I donโ€™t use the re pie on the package. I use grandmaโ€™s which involves melting the butter over high heat until it creates dark golden bits. Then I make thetangzhong. It gives the cookies a toffee flavor.

The President who got us out of the Great Depression was a Democrat. The President who lifted 50% of kids out of poverty was a Democrat. The only President to expand healthcare was a Democrat. The only President in modern times that balanced the budget was a Democrat. Republicans only get you wars and economic crises.

I accept my mistakes when Iโ€™m at fault. Always. However, I wonโ€™t apologize for defending myself against disrespect. If you lit the fire, donโ€™t stand in the ashes and play the victim.

So, Vivek hit Amy Acton by platforming comments from her estranged motherโ€”a woman whose husband had sexually abused Acton at age 12, causing the mother to lose both her children, whom she disavowed as she continued to remain loyal to the abuser. Great character witness.

With the ad about Dr. Amy Acton that was aired by Vivek Ramaswarmy, the GOP has showed us who they really are. Nothing is to vile for them. They are truly the party of pedophiles and pedo protectors. I wonder how many pedos does Ramaswarmy has in hi family?

A special needs child in a wheelchair was shot in the face in her classroom on Thursday and by Saturday it's no longer in the news.
