Yes! It gives me a few weeks to find a pork terrine recipe I like. Thanks for the excellent ideas!

Great idea! G likes mortadella

me too, especially this time of year when free time is hard to come by. Now that I think about it maybe I'll do this for the last episode which drops in mid Nov, so I won't be scrambling for time

Now this is the advice I needed! I love all those things. I could mix them into a terrine or pate

oh that's a good idea! A loaf cake with fruit or candies or something in it. I wonder if I could find green chocolate chips, like mint flavored or something

I was thinking maybe salmon terrine?

I need advice from friends who cook, and friends who eat! I want to get in the spirit of The @rifftrax.com Experiments MST3K by serving Syd's Olive Loaf the night episode 2 drops, but G and I both dislike olives. What can we have that's similar to olive loaf without being olive loaf?

There's apparently something circulating on FB that says that if a poll worker writes on your ballot, that invalidates your vote. In North Carolina this is FALSE. Poll workers are required to write on early voting ballots and absentee by mail ballots. From the NC state BOE:

ncsbe.gov

Fact: In NC, if an Election Worker Writes on Your Ballot, It Does Not Invalidate It

State Board responds to inaccurate information spreading on social media and elsewhere.

It’s on YouTube! Looks terrible, blurry as heck, but we can still follow it

Tonight’s movie: Poor Devil. Sammy Davis TV pilot about a hapless demon (Davis) trying to get a desperate human (Jack Klugman) to sell his soul. Christopher Lee plays Lucifer! Adam West is in it too but we haven’t seen his character yet

I’m bored with meals too :)

Meal planning plan for the week, time to go through my October recipes, oh fun, what cozy stew will I make .. wait, let me check the forecast … shit. Time to go through my summer recipes

The storm has passed, it’s all over except the endless NWS alerts interrupting my show which I can’t even complain about because there was an actual tornado in the area, warning people about it is objectively good

080

It’s past my area, it’s not even raining here anymore! These storms move fast

About half of Durham is now inside the possible tornado path

Durham friends, it sounds like we’re okay, but if you’re near Fayetteville or Apex be careful

I never let critics worry me 🤣

There's actually two deer in the lot next door. They look young. A dog nearish (within a block maybe) started barking frantically and the deer are scared. Poor deer.

There’s a deer hanging out in the empty lot next door. My windows are open (thank GOD it’s finally windows-open season) and I’m writing a review and kinda talking to myself as I write. The deer keeps freezing and staring at me, then goes back to chewing on leaves

Happiness is: logging into a volunteer hub for the first time in 2 years and discovering that I still have my bookmark folder with all the tabs I'll need 😍

Wow gorgeous! I love those colors & everything is neat as a pin

In German they call them Arschgeweih, “ass antlers,” and if that’s what they were called in English I would have one

It’s not that bad: I know exactly how I went wrong, stopped before I’d done *that* much, and figured out how to make the marking easier next time. Still. I’m going to take a couple days off before I go at it again

Just spent hours marking radial lines to topstitch the background, kneeling up and down dozens of times, even worked out how to use a lip balm to see where the mark is on the opposite side, and I MADE A GEOMETRY ERROR AND HAVE TO START OVER

A quilt spread out on the floor with a laser level marking a straight line from one corner, through the center, to the opposite corner

A vertical line in the lip balm is lined up next to one of the tiny marks. The laser level line exactly hits the mark and the vertical line on the lip balm

I 100% tear up every time I even think about that episode

for me this is the most powerful episode of any Trek ever

that bed next to my desk is one of her favorite spots, she lies there all day while I work

G caught a heart melting photo of Coco watching us

That's true about department stores! I wonder about Barnes & Noble, I used to shop there for DVDs/Blurays

I forgot Deaf Crocodile, they have interesting stuff but their store is offline right now (just for a couple of days). I got the restored blu-rays of Ilya Muromets and Sampo from them

Shout Factory has a good selection, I think they're called Gruv now? If you like horror & cult films Vinegar Syndrome is a good source. For more highbrow films of course Criterion and Arrow

Thank you!! It’s turning out just like I hoped

We’re watching right now!! And doing the tardigrade!!!

And I just got a Kickstarter update explaining that yes, they released it a day early to backers. Yay!!!! My only regret is that I was saving my “MST3K Launch Crew” shirt to wear tomorrow

I just got the download for @rifftrax.com MST3K Sting of Death!!!!! Did they release it a day early to Kickstarter backers? Waiting until after dinner to watch with G is going to be the longest 2 hours of my life

Topstitching the circle is 100% done! Tomorrow after work I start on the background!
