Welp, there is one more federal judge for Cheeto to fire.
Mother of four, Widowed, marched against the Vietnam War and had friends in the SDS who may or may not have set fire to the ROTC building on the U of Oregon campus back in the day. Lived 45 years in California, then stuck in Kansas, but now headed HOME!

I have hope because I know history so well. Fascist dictators always lose. Mussolini was hung with his mistress in the town square. Hitler committed suicide. And Trump will die. Even the most evil people like Pol Pot and Idi Amin die. It may take time. But things WILL get better.

I remember seeing signs for them all across the country when driving to Missouri to visit relatives when I was a child, but it doesn't exist on the west coast. Apparently they are coming back with a Stuckey granddaughter at the helm.

#11- One pan bahn mi style beef tacos. Sadly, this dish didn't satisfy my craving for Mexican OR Vietnamese. The marinated cucumber was pretty much the only flavour here, vinegar.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#10- street cart style chicken bowls. Divided opinion. My son liked it but I am not a fan of chicken thigh meat so I wasn't a fan.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#9- Moo shu pork bowls. Another meh, plus plain rice.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#8 Italian chicken and pepper sandos. This one is a monumental fail. Hard to eat and no flavour at all. No one finished it.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#7- Southwest beef cavatappi. This was a hands down favourite. Just delicious.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#6- smoky brown sugar chicken salad. I have never been a huge fan of kale, but this dish was really excellent. Lots of goodies in the salad, sunflower seeds, apple slices, honey dijon dressing. The roasted carrots were ok but added nothing to the dish.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#5- cherry balsamic chicken with almond couscous and roasted carrots. Winner winner chicken dinner. The couscous was well seasoned and delicious, the chicken was good just wish there had been a bit more of the cherry glaze.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#4_ garlicky shrimp couscous bowls. Another meh. Little flavour and the chili flakes added nothing to the broccoli. The couscous was a bit bland.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
#3: soy glazed hoisin meatloaves with green beans and rice. The meatloaf portion was pretty good and so were the green beans with siracha mayo. But the rice needed something.
oldgrandma53.bsky.social (@oldgrandma53.bsky.social)
Dinner # 2: Middle Eastern chickpea bowls- This one was a winner. A meatless option that was very well made and really good, and even came with a free sample of probiotics.

Ever been interested in trying Hello Fresh but weren't sure you wanted to pay the price in case you didn't like it? I am here to help. Dinner number 1: Sesame soy beef bowls. This one was meh, kind of bland. If it had a quality hot sauce it might be improved.

They don't really want originality? I am shocked, shocked I tell you! It is the same with TV writing. In the fifties, almost every show was a western. In the sixties, idiotic sitcoms, in the 70s, detective shows. little variation. The powers that be always want the safe road.
