Random Month of July

I just discovered coconut cream wafers from Target and I may eat the whole package by the end of the day. I also had Olive Garden for lunch! My taste buds are happy!

@klmcguire I don’t think we’ve “met” yet, so hi and welcome! You’re family looks so beautiful, but could you please put you photo in a spoiler.

Did you guys know you can play classic Oregon Trail for free online? Hello, wasting all of my time

spacemountaineer

All of this food sounds amazing, especially yours @JLaVO888. Of course I swore of sweets and soda for the month of July to restart my diet. I want to stress eat so bad right now. 

@general_organa that is fantastic! Where can you  do that?

Dollar Tree has pumpkin spice carmel. I'm going to make a 2nd trip to grab some more.

Just ate dinner.

@general_organa wait, what? Where? That is excellent.

@eleven_, sounds like a good plan to me. Dinner had wine and a drink I recently discovered, Tennessee tea. 

eleven_

@holly321 What is Tennessee tea? 

holly321

@eleven_, it is like a long island ice tea, but with Jack Daniels.

Thanking the heavens for boozy slushies and Ibuprofen to recover from them.

general_organa

@Avrilmai @spacemountianeer sorry for the delay! We had a busy 4th and I wasn't able to get back on TB yesterday. 

I play this one because it's the one I played in 4th-ish grade! 

You can also just google "play oregon trail online free" and the top results work if you'd rather play the older version.

Carnitas tacos with cilantro, onion, lime and hot sauce. Right now y'all. Mmmmmm.

holly321

@suzycupcake, that does sound delicious. My mom and I are going to get Mexican tonight, and that may be what I have to get.

Maltese baked tuna on top of potato and onion layers with tomatoes, whole crushed garlic, and fresh mint. I have no idea how this will turn out.

meggyme

@suzycupcake if it turns out well, I’ma need that recipe.

suzycupcake

@meggyme It was good but I need to do it again and maybe recreate it a little bit. I cannot tell if the potatoes didn't cook all of the way because I didn't slice them thinly enough or what. It was easy enough to put them in a frying pan to cook the rest of the way, but obviously annoying after spending all of that time preparing and then waiting 45 minutes for all of it to bake. It could've also been my glass casserole was too small and I shouldn't have made so many potato and onion layers. I'm also not sure how I feel about the mint. Maybe I used too much lol Here is the recipe: https://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/maltese-baked-tuna-196221

Made refrigerator pickles for the first time and loved them. Who else does pickles?

I binge watched The Staircase and finished it last night. I went down the Reddit rabbit hole afterwards. Did you guys read about the “owl theory”? I don’t want to give anything away for those that haven’t watched, but I thought the entire series was so intriguing! It was amazing to see the behind the scenes and it was footage from almost 20 years ago. 

I heard Evil Genuis in netflix was another good true crime series to watch.

This doesn’t surprise me. I will call her my pear from now on since she is pear shaped. 

luckywife10

@nanner26 I had not heard of the Owl Theory before, but I just googled it and it kind of makes sense! I've seen Evil Genius too and it's good, in a crazy/creepy/weird kind of way.

TW- pregnancy-not mine. 
A former coworker announced on FB she is expecting. Her H also announced & talked about his MFI. Loved that. I’ve never seen a male do that on social media. 

TJtheGoat

@nanner26    @luckywife10 Yes, I heard about the owl stuff on a podcast (I can’t remember which one right now). I found it super intriguing and I still don’t know what I think. That whole family was extra weird, so it was hard not to judge him based on being creepy lol

jurassicsarp

@nanner26 @luckywife10 @TJtheGoat

The owl theory is definitely intriguing for sure. Hubs is kind of obsessed with it lol. The weirdest thing about it all to me though is that it's not like making a murdered where it was all done like after the fact basically. This guy should be concerned about his wife being dead, and his poor kids and all that.... but instead he basically signs himself up for his own creepy little reality show??? Super fishy.... also, why the heck did that terrible lawyer stand for him having the same dang judge at all the appeals?!?! I could go on and on about all the things wrong with that whole case lol

suzycupcake

*goes to google to see what the staircase is*

@sheepshepherdess How do you go about making pickles? I love me some pickles. Never thought about making my own. 

sheepshepherdess

@suzycupcake Oops, my "country" is showing Everyone I know here makes some kind of canned goods, but good dill pickles are an obsession of mine. White vinegar, salt, and water for brine, heated on the stove. Then garlic cloves, spices: dill seed, fresh dill weed, mustard seeds, black peppercorns, etc, and cucumbers: sliced or spears or tiny whole cukes, and farmers market cukes are better. So so good. Best part is getting to eat a whole jar because I made them so it's "healthier" than the store (thanks, brain). I wish I could share them with everyone on here!

Crime shows honestly freak me out, I can't even watch Law & Order anymore. Turned into a wuss in the last couple years.

I really enjoy Supernatural, though. Like, really enjoy.
