@ Everybody

We know nighthawks has artistic talent….

…The images below are themselves links showing how much more those talents are than we know.    (Right click on the image and open the destination link in a new window so you don’t lose this page.)

I can’t post a link of any kind to

StelBel’s Stuff

because the programming won’t let me. But a visit to her collection is a trip down memory lane.

I did not discover the method,

“Rotifer (whatever’s-in-the-middle-when-you-read-this) Thalweg” did in his comment…

at this link here

…and I began to play around with the method. Results? Not really that good.

I’ve spent an hour or so wrestling with the site’s coding and Word both to get a coherent explanation together.

I could not, so finally had to resort to making the attachment below to explain what I do.
If I haven’t made it clear, let me know and I’ll try again.

(As always, you can right click on the attachment and pop it up in a new window.)

Who reminded me of it yesterday.  It’s good   &nbspcomment image

This is exactly the way Dennis posted it on GoComics for me in 2018.

I made it using the buttermilk option and Dennis’ mother’s method of putting it in a greased casserole dish; it rose and spread beautifully.

I regret to say I haven’t made it since then, but then I haven’t made Rum Ribs either. I’m getting lazy with my cooking, I guess.

“Alexi, this is my Irish Nana’s recipe. I am told the addition of raisins is an Irish-American thing, like corned beef and cabbage.

4 c all-purpose flour

1/4 c granulated sugar

1 tsp each salt, baking powder

1/4 c butter, melted

2 c seedless raisins

1.5 c buttermilk or milk

1 egg

1 tsp baking soda

mix and sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder

Cut in butter with wooden spoon until it resembles coarse corn meal

Stir in raisins

Combine milk, egg and baking soda.

Stir milk mixture into flour mixture until just moistened

Cook in 375 deg. oven 45-50 min, until golden brown.

You can bake this in a loaf pan but I prefer my mother’s way of putting the ball of dough in the middle of a greased casserole dish, it spreads out but maintains a mountain shape.”

The one shoulder gown is an intriguing look for Cleo. At least I think that’s the objective. An air of mystery, a whisper of romance ……….. or maybe that’s just the hiss of bubble blowing.

Every boy dog in the audience wants to nibble that him off her face. I contacted the cartoonist who does Love Is yesterday. Maybe there will be one in the comments section in a few days.

A mute would have been less messy and more efficient – probably more expensive – stupid penny-pinching producers.

P.S. Greetings from St. John U.S. Virgin Islands – 74/81 were the lo/hi temps yesterday, today, tomorrow, etc.

Didn’t know you were going to St John. I have an old college friend who has lived there for years. I should have warned her.

A standing ovation because they didn’t have to listen to her play that horn and got a laugh besides. Good one! She seems overdressed for that instrument. Maybe she should take up the harp. Bubble gum all over the strings would be another sticky situation.

finally figured out how to subscribe, log in, make an avatar. Hurray for me!

BTW – I’m in our 928S4 at MIS! Only 105mph because clutch is a little loose and the tires are old. Had we known we’d be doing more than parade lap speed (70) hubby might have upgraded sooner. Oh, well.

It was still a blast. Coming into the turns and the banking of about 45 degrees was intimidating and awesome.
