"by turns gruesome, shocking, tender, poignant, and nauseating (but in a good way fans of horror will understand)."

"Sparrow and Brooks give us two lovers who, by turns, are passionate in their love, lust, and yes, hate and who feed off each other’s best and worst. It’s heady, compelling stuff.:

"a unique and terrifying find…one that will haunt your nightmares as well as your most depraved fantasies."


I may die of Squee...

Explain this to me

I've been seeing this a lot recently: "Take Back America."

It begs the questions:
Take it back from whom?
Take it back FOR whom?
Where are we taking it?
When are we taking it back to?
How did you lose it in the first place?

Oddly, when I ask those questions, the people doing the sloganeering never really have an answer?.

This message brought to you by checkstand annoyance at seeing Little Miss Theocrat Quitter's face on TWO magazines.

Cooking stuff: Basic muffins

2 to 2 1/2 cups grain (flour, oatmeal, wheat germ etc...)
1 cup milk
up to 1/4 cup fat (oil, butter, peanut butter etc...)
1 egg
up to 1/2 cup sweetener (sugar, honey, agave etc...)
2tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
up to 1 1/2 cups additions

Mix all together & bake approx 25 min on 350F

When using very wet additions, reduce the milk or oil somewhat.

I like pumpkin, raisins and some pumpkin pie spice.
Zucchini, cocoa powder and chocolate chips are just decadent.

Busy day
