					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/thursday-funnies-263/#comment-425465&quot;&gt;Revolted&lt;/a&gt;.

I laughed when I read that.

My boyfriend - I&#039;m very lucky, because my significant other grew up with an Irish mother who not only hated to cook but was terrible at it. And then, his late wife, whom he loved and cherished, and who is the mother of his grown daughters ALSO dislike cooking and was bad at it.

  Now, I&#039;m not bad - I can cook fairly well, very plain things, mostly. I am no gourmet. I would not call myself a good cook.  I&#039;m ok.  You&#039;re not going to starve.  

 My late mother, who was Italian American and an amazing cook, taught me some of what she knew, but I lost her early, and so the lessons stopped.   What she taught me, I learned well.  For instance, I make very good spagetti sauce, and meatballs - her recipe and its amazing,, everyone says so.   Ditto fried chicken, and real french fries meatloaf and mashed potatoes - very plain, uninspired  food.  And she taught me to make sugar cookies. But I lost her when I was 14.  She would have taught me all that she knew, which was a lot, but she passed away, anyway...

 I lucked out with this guy in that to him, homemade  red sauce spaghetti and meatballs with a tossed green salad and some bread sticks- THIS, for him, is a gourmet Italian meal.   Because of my work schedule and his work schedule we eat out a lot. Anything I make for him at home, anything I throw together that&#039;s homemade, is a HUGE deal.  He&#039;s in awe.  Its very funny because there is NOTHING remarkable about my cooking AT ALL (and I&#039;m not being falsely modest) But for him, with a mother who was a bad cook, and then a wife of 32 years who  before her death and throughout their marriage hated to cook, and his two grown daughters who took after their mother and grandmother and never cook at all,  well, compared to them, my modest and limited efforts place me defacto right next to  Julia Child :)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I suspect that the Sydney Org completion is Taiwanese, continuing the servicing of foreign people in Sydney. It gave them what could be considered a boom around the turn of the century. Not servicing your own area is okay if you’re getting money from elsewhere, like the South African AO does.]]></description>

As an Italian wherever I went abroad, when there were these buffets with &#039;Italian cuisine&#039;, I was baffled. How many things passed off as Italian cuisine, but often they were just poultices of things mixed together with pasta.
Who knows at that event what they will serve as Italian &#039;food&#039; - they will have done everything cheaply, poor ingredients, such as rubber mozzarella, pasta made in ...?, etc.]]></description>

The documentary GOING CLEAR didn&#039;t send me back to SCN. Oh no, it did just the opposite. The Angry Gay Pope and I laughed so hard at key points in the movie that we drove two guys who had been sitting in front of us to another part of the movie theater. I spent 37 years in that cult and escaped just before the release of GOING CLear.

What a way to &quot;debrief&quot;!

Chan takes that weird lrh shit and runs with it. 

And everyone goes &quot;wow&quot; and they think &quot;wtf did he just say?&quot;
