  1. Gillian Anderson wears a dress covered in embroidered vaginas

    Except they were labium (the plural of labia.  So my peeve is adults who don't know the correct name for parts of their bodies, including the actress, the designer and all of the people commenting on it.  (Also adults who use kiddie nicknames like va-jay-jay for body parts, but that's a separate peeve).

    pinkeye will clear up much faster with antibiotic drops.

    OT - only if it's bacterial, rather than viral.

    I'm invited to a neighbour's for an early dinner today.  I asked what I could bring, and they said "we're having Chinese

    The entire menu right through dessert (except my bread) came from the frozen section of the grocery store.  It was a pleasant evening, and the food was edible - not awful - but I would never choose to eat any of the dishes again.  I can't imagine inviting guests for a meal and not cooking most, if not all of it from scratch.   Different strokes, I guess.

    I think Christine is being how she is, because she senses Janelle isn't as emotionally free from Kody as she says she is

    Christine is the like an ex-smoker, or former fat girl who got skinny, and thinks she has got it all figured out so everyone needs to do it her way.

  5. None of these latest episodes are available in Canada. Sister Wives is only on Discovery Plus, through Amazon, and for reasons known only to them, they haven't loaded anything since the last One on One. 

    So I'm reading along with the comments, trying to follow the chronology. And I'm doing a rewatch, since I barely paid attention to the early seasons.  Had I watched them in real time (was PrimeTimer even around then?) I wouldn't have been able to abide by the "don't disparage children" rule. Because these kids are insufferable from the very first episode (except Logan, Logan is a puppy dog). It's odd to watch the sanctimonious one, the hysterical crying one, the know-it-all one, etc.  knowing how the next decade plays out.

  6. I'm invited to a neighbour's for an early dinner today.  I asked what I could bring, and they said "we're having Chinese, there'll be lots of food. Bring something if you want" and I thought "Ugh, I hate Chinese food." I don't hate all of it, I just need to know in advance there are no mushrooms or shellfish that I will need to pick out, because I hate those ingredients.

    Given the short notice, and in keeping with the international theme, I'm making Turkish bread. https://www.lazycatkitchen.com/no-knead-turkish-bread/.  

    Mine doesn't look nearly that pretty, but it smells great.

  7. Amazon sells Cuddle and Kind (officially, including the donation), so you can save on shipping and they have occasional markdowns.  I signed up on the C & K website for emails, etc, and was almost annoyed enough by the frequency that I was going to unsubscribe when they hit me with 25% off for Black Friday.   I went with Lucy the Lamb, for a connection to a family name.

    Where else can we safely pi$$ & moan about every day annoyances?

    I actually removed all of my Reddit posts, then deleted my account, because it was too easy to get drawn into arguments with morons.  Now I scroll various subreddits, but don't have the temptation to respond because I can't.

    Here I just have a very (VERY) long list of posters I've blocked, so I don't even see them unless someone else quotes them.

    Seems to me you are agreeing to be in it for the long run even if things get bad.

    That's where the "stringing along" comes in. If you're not happy, and not prepared to do what is necessary to fix things, get out before you make the rest of your family miserable too.  Release your partner to find someone who is happy with them - cough, Meri.

    Every time TLC shows the clip of Kody saying 1st sternly: "I told them it's either MY way or you can just LEAVE" Pause for dramatic TLC music and then he dejectedly says "and they left"

    They need to have Keith Morrison do a voiceover for the second part.

    For new baby gifts, I've been ordering (for several years now!) those sweet, soft, musical stuffed animals from Nordstrom's.

    On a recommendation from someone here, I bought a Cuddle and Kind doll for friends having their first baby soon.  It's gorgeous, but spendy, so I'm happy I hit upon a Black Friday sale.
