Domestic Right Wing Terrorists!

[Ed W]

Why did you have to do that to me? There's no way I can get she who must be obeyed to make that tonight. (and my "cooking" skills are limited to following the instructions on the box..sad, but it is what it is)

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly."....Robert Heinlein

I think what Bob was saying is that you should be able to make your own macaroni and cheese.  On reflection, however, I'm forced to admit that when I offer to make dinner, SWMBO and the kids want to eat out.

Fantastic. May I borrow "SWMBO" in the future sometime?

Yeah, it's just like you to complain about foreign cheeses while expecting us all to have a microwave.

That's pretty funny right there.

I can. I believe the instructions on the box say "boil the round elbow-looking things, toss in a gobsmacking amount of butter, a dash of milk, and the powder we put in the box. Stir." I'd rather have something that doesn't taste like cardboard, though.

Another timely reminder of the original intent of this thread. Where are those in the right wing who stand for non violence and a woman's right to privacy?

Planned Parenthood firebombed, right wing silent
A potential incident of domestic terrorism this week got a yawn from most of the press -- and the political right
http://www.salon.com/news/politics/war_room/2011/07/30/planned_parenthood_terrorism/index.html


" We obviously don't know yet, but this attack seems more likely to be the work of a politically motivated person with conservative beliefs than a random act of vandalism. In other words, domestic terrorism. Someone threw a Molotov cocktail at a women's health clinic. It's insane that only a couple of Internet feminists actually seem to care. "

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I was scrambling to cut and paste the mac 'n' cheese recipes quick as possible before the thread locks down or disappears.  The carb content looks wonderful, but the cheese, I'm afraid, would slow me down too much.

Looks like some good eating when I can consume 100 g's of fat per meal again

Ahhh but to combat this 117 degree weather you need a nice layer of fat to prevent your fluids from evaporating.

All of these mac and cheese recipes are SPF 50!

I did it that way once.  Wasn't so good.  I learned the hard way that there is actually another step in there between boiling and adding the other ingredients.... "strain water out".  I hate cooking, its so complicated and there are so many rules.

Here's something to help cool you off, Mt Shasta last week.

Dude, are you serious?  You're an artist.  Cooking is way easier.  My horribly drawn stick figures can attest to this.

You ever decide your work sucks and you start over?  That's all you have to do if you screw up your pasta.  Toss it and start again.

Same as with any dish.  Trial and error.

I just looked up and remembered this is supposed to be about "domestic right wing terrorists"...so BOOM I dropped a bomb on you baby.

Mmmmm, yummy! Mashed thread for lunch!

About an hour ago I turned off of Pine onto Gap Band Drive. We all sort of giggled. That is what I like about inner city Tulsa. A sense of ourselves seasoned with a little humor. Anyone remember Guava?

And all this time I thought that luscious cheese sauce was intended...
