Happy weekend! Today we are talking my niece to a play. She is very into spiders and the play is Charlotte’s Web, so this is going to be a fun little excursion for all. (I bought us matching spider ponchos, naturally). This was a very social week and I am craving a bit of hibernating and cozy time. Hoping to spend this afternoon and tonight reading before I leave tomorrow morning. Whatever you’re up to, I hope it is great.

I wasnt able to read the whole article but I can tell you the Atlantic piece is real. I work part time in a library system in South Carolina. I have witnessed patrons scream at my colleagues about books on the shelves, heard of branches having the police called on them because people were unhappy as well as branch managers being Verbally and publicly abused by members of the board of trustees.
Wow, that is truly awful, how horrible.
My apologies for the abrasive comment. Clearly I have feelings. Should also say I recently discovered your blog and love it and your taste
Not abrasive at all, impassioned!
(and thanks!)
OMG! I’m definitely trying those short ribs!!
They look so good!
Thank you for sharing the Time article on misused psychology terms – I definitely have adopted “trauma” into my vocabulary (thanks, TikTok and Instagram!) and it’s time to let it go.
I agree, me too!
I started with that short rib recipe over 10 years ago and while I now cook it with my own modifications and from memory, this is what I use! I will say, as written this is A LOT of liquid, so I would pull back on the wine and stock and then check the pot and add if needed. I’m also loose with the herbs and use what I have, usually dried. And this method works well with cubed stew meat 🙂
YUM! Thanks for the tips!!!
