Ideas for birthday dinner?
DD2's second birthday is coming up next Friday...
I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on what I can do for supper... I normally make something like tacos (for the birthdays that fall in cooler months) and usually BBQ in the warm months. The problem is (although it's not really a problem, really) is that we just got home not long ago from my aunt's house for her birthday, and she made tacos for supper. I'm kinda wanting to get away from the tacos partly because of this. If I'm stuck, then I'll probably go with that anyways, seeing as it's fairly cheap and easy to make. I have to probably feed about 14 or 15 people at the very most, including the 4 of us. Does anyone have any ideas on something that's fairly simple and easy to prepare and make, and something that doesn't really cost too much? I also don't really care to BBQ partly because N is not around to man the BBQ and I don't really care to stand outside in the yard by myself BBQing while everyone else is inside! Any ideas on something other than tacos or BBQ burgers? |

It's been a timeworn slogan regarding separation of those 2 concepts I didn't intend that he would change his church as a politician, but as a loyal member of 20 years. He called his adulterous pastor a close friend and mentor, and yet in 20 years of personal association with the man he didn't have any noticeable effect on Wright's bizarre beliefs -- such as that the U.S. government created AIDS as a way of killing off Blacks. In the end, this relationship has not ended in "unity," but has ended in solid division between the two. Wright joined a passel of inconvenient associates under the bus, and went on to embarrass himself, Obama, and frankly the rest of America with subsequent public snide jabs at Obama. I've NEVER heard of anyone supposed to have changed a minister's mind. They're supposed to be the authority or leader or whatever. To expect you to change such a person is a bit far fetched. Generally, you are supposed to leave if something is that phenomenally offensive. Which suggests that to Obama there was nothing of that caliber. But the better explanation is that most people stay in churches on the basis of the friendships they have formed more so than for the beliefs of the church. It's a long lonely road when you do that. He couldn't change his own state while in the statehouse, and yet he's hubristic enough to believe he can change the country? according to the NY Times, apparently he did more than the nothing you allege Did I say "nothing?" Actually, why don't you cite the 800 bills he sponsored? Heh. Because that would make it obvious how Illinois politics works -- your political sponsor in the statehouse funnels bills your way, especially important bills as you approach crucial political junctures in your political career (as happened to Obama his last year there). http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/30/us...s/30obama.html BTW, did you actually read the piece? It's not all that flattering. BTW did you remember that I don't like Obama? I'm merely posing the possibility that you are being more harsh than need be. I don't agree with a million things he says and I don't like his attitude on a lot of things. I will however give him credit where he's done something. I don't know how Illinois politics works. I'm from a different city machine. But, I do know that if he's being given credit for it then if he at least worked towards it or got consensus or whatever, and others are giving credit, then maybe he did the work it says he did and that change did come of it instead of what appears like an absolute negation that anything changed or improved. With the assistance of Senator Jones, Mr. Obama helped deliver what is said to have been the first significant campaign finance reform law in Illinois in 25 years. Yeah. The "assistance" of Senator Jones. Funny how to be at least within shooting distance of honest, the Times has to speak of Jones "assisting" and Obama "helping." Who was actually "doing?" Heh. This is Orwellian of the first order -- but it's about the only locution to do justice to how the State Senate under Jones has been run. I don't know feel free to refute the information provided Do you understand how bill sponsorship works in the Illinois senate? Second quiz: Do you understand how the "Present" vote is used in the Illinois senate? You need to understand something -- Illinois is corrupt. Emil Jones is corrupt. The Cook County Board is corrupt. Chicago is corrupt. Patrick Fitzgerald has found Illinois target-rich, and has about 200 years of investigations and prosecutions to work on during his remaining years alive. But back to Barry: I think you might find the sincerity and thoroughness of this piece worth your time. Perhaps not, but here it is: http://snurl.com/3soqo I've said what my knowledge is above. Did I mention that i don't like Obama, and that this happened a long time ago, before this article...maybe when I heard him speak at the previous Democratic convention. I think that's when it started. But back to your point. You are not voting for him, neither am I. We've both got lots of reasons. But that's not pushing me into the arms of the equally impossible to vote for McCain thanks but no thanks to coin a phrase. mk5000 "And worse from us, so obvious, Preposterous, when you think of the time that each has spent.

Any ideas on something other than tacos or BBQ burgers? BLTs are a big winner with me. I try to pick up batches of bacon when on sale and stockpile it for when I need it. Then, when I get insanely busy, it ends up being easy to make, it's satisfying, and not insanely unhealthy especially if you get good bread and the LT part too! I know I know, traditionally people make it on white bread, but I love it on pumpernickel. If you really want to splurge, make them club sandwiches. mk5000 "I didn't let the cat out So don't look at me sideways Don't even look me straight on And don't worry I've got my hands in my pockets, baby"--never said, liz phair |
