As I said yesterday, today was just a nice stay at home day, or at least it started out that way.
Jan whipped up another loaf of her delicious Cranberry Orange Nut Bread, that we’ll have for breakfast over the next week or so. Nice.
Then later in the afternoon Jan and I took several of our big heavy throw rugs over the RV park laundry to give them a thorough cleaning. If she does them in our rig washer, but only one at a time. But with a FREE laundry right across the road that’s the way to go.
Jan’s used the washers once before, but it was my first time to look it over. And I was really surprised at how nice it was. Three new looking washers and three new looking dryers, all big heavy-duty units. And I did mentioned there were FREE, didn’t I.
And as it turned out, Nancy Christian, the park owner, and furnisher of the FREE washers and dryers, dropped by with some Christmas goodies and a couple of small gifts for us.
The goodie was a big batch of ‘Christmas Reindeer Crack’, a snack mixture I don’ think we’ve had before, but it sure was good. Maybe the best-tasting of any of these mixtures I’ve tasted.
I’ve posted the recipe for the Christmas Reindeer Crack under Jan’s Favorite Recipes if you want to take a ‘crack’ at it.
In another Attack of the PC Idiots, the classic Winter/Christmas son, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” is an assault on women and is considered, ‘rapey’. In fact one couple, who I won’t waste a link on, wrote a ‘less sexually aggressive version of it.
Here’s a quote from them:
“You never figure out if she gets to go home,”
“You never figure out if there was something in her drink.”
“It just leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth.”
So apparently there was even a date rape drug involved.
The song was actually written in 1944 by Frank Loesser for him and his wife Lynn to perform at parties, and it quickly became a big hit.
Here’s an article on the Baby, It’s Cold Outside controversy
And falling even further down the PC rabbit hole, some SJWs (Social Justice Warriors) now want grandmas (and granddads, I suppose) to get active consent before they hug a grandchild, even signed consent forms in some cases. You can read more about it here: Grandma Consent Forms
I mentioned yesterday about how all of Hillary Clinton’s 2.3 million popular vote win could be attributed to just winning California by 4.5 million votes.
But from later info, it looks like California AND New York had a hand in this lopsided popular vote.
But it’s not just California and New York. It’s even more concentrated than that. It was just LA County and New York City. So instead of one or two STATES controlling the election, it would be one COUNTY and one CITY, exactly what the Electoral College was supposed to prevent.
If you remove just LA County and New York City from the mix, Trump would have won the popular vote by almost 500,000 votes.
For dinner tonight we again made trip down to Beeville to have dinner at the Beeville Diner. Last time we each had a salad and split an order of their wings. But the wings were so good that this time we each got an order of the wings and split a salad.
We get the wings with their Sweet Tangy Golden Sauce and they’re delicious. They’ have a crispy, crunchy crust, juicy insides, and an a really great sauce.
We split the Berry Nut Salad, the same one I had last time, but this time with grilled chicken instead of fried. Just as delicious as last time.
Tomorrow we’ll have the leftover Bella Sera pizza and then I’ve got a gate starting at 5:30pm, and then the next three days at another gate starting at 5:00pm.
Work, work, work.
