Seems closely related to the final scenes of "The English"

Wife and I just finished this #recipeoftheday
relishing a total cheat.
Cook some rhubarb in just a small quantity of sugar, pour over a wedge of salted caramel ice cream (which, on its own, is too sickly sweet)
but this,
is AAA+
Drizzle of cream optional.

Mount, Shaw and McGuire didn't exactly light up the pitch on Wednesday - in fact exactly the opposite.
why he didn't bring Mainoo on earlier is anyone's guess.

that's the perpetual conundrum.
power corrupts the reform ideas that get people into power.

yup.
the US democratic methods need radical overhaul.
No "senators for life", no buying votes at any level. Party machinery needs radical change too.

then you might get better government.

I think there are very few top musicians who wouldn't jump at the chance of working with Peter Gabriel,
I love seeing the way some of these connections play out over time.

Conservative estimates based on trial evidence, longitudinal statistical analysis, and prison officer judgement regarding prisoners maintaining innocence, suggest that there are currently between 300 and 800 prisoners wrongfully convicted of sex offences.

Block caps that shout "I am a moron"

- which "side" does that behaviour fall on...?

is the whole world divided into 2 sides in your view?
if so you have delusions of adequacy.

we got lucky arriving at the Canyon near to sundown time
the storm had drifted, but Peter Gabriel's "Red Rain" played loudly in my head as my brother and I watched this scene...

YES!
My wife has turned me on to chicory and in turn I have roasted it, coated with balsamic glaze and seasoning, as an accompaniment to Sunday roast,

current other fave bitter aspect is a bed of wilted mustard leaves, fresh cut from the garden, under lamb chops or chicken.

the kind of grace the Dem party leadership showed in saying "kill yourself" - for daring to suggest Connolly should be recuperating/dying at home,
not occupying a seat to the detriment of democracy itself?
