Quinoa elbow pasta is not the silky dream of say De Cecco linguine. Then again, it doesn't give me migraines. Not sure about the belly bloat though, the carb count is through the roof. Each year the focus on certain food details drives the purchase. You live, you learn.
I had the idea to make goulash. What makes this a delicious Hungarian delight as opposed to Italian comfort food? And in researching that I discovered what I have been calling goulash is just another Americanized and completely different dish then the actual. But the simplified version is basically stewed hamburger meat, Paprika, pasta, beef broth, tomato and you guessed it, cheddar. Americans love to slather cheese on our ethnic dishes. I never turn down a chance for cheesy comfort food so here you have it. http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a55501/best-goulash-recipe/I'm discovering that men are a little more complicated than I had imagined as well. I've always studied the opposite sex and found them fascinating but maybe a little predictable in certain areas. But with the recent wave of sexual allegations, if you are truly interested in human behavior, the details are astounding. These are really cases for the books. Now they're coming in so fast, we're throwing them all in one heap. We really need some experts to chime in here, start getting this stuff into piles. We have predators, power assholes, perverts, serial masturbators, pedophiles, and rapists. In my wildest dreams there was not this bulk of variety.
My questions have questions! If you're a living woman, there's a great chance you've suffered some sort of sexual misconduct at work or otherwise. And you've probably racked your brain to comprehend how this goes down whilst the person maintains all normalcy and can seem so unphased by any reaction. We're raised to see predators and criminals as dark, seedy creatures, not the unassuming average Joe types coming to light. But those in the know can accept it fairly easily without much effort.
I hate to be the one to put a positive spin on all of this but I spent time talking today with my husband who actually brought this up and I agree. This might end up being really great for the country. The start to fixing a problem is recognizing you have one. No one wants to hear all this but we certainly can never go back and say it isn't a problem. Women have enough obstacles getting ahead in a man's world so this needs to stop and businesses need to ensure this is not happening. We won't allow them to keep letting money make them blind to these crimes. We love you non-offensive men and we can all take a bit of the blame in letting this fester for so many decades. Maybe this is a big part of our human evolution. Its like when you go to clean out your closet and at first it feels like you're doubling the mess and you get sort of sick wondering why the heck you started such a massive undertaking. But you continue because now you're 'in it' and can't go back. You take everything out and look at it, touch it, throw some stuff out and neatly handle the rest until finally its done and you're so glad. Because if anything says you're a together person it's a well organized closet. Right now the country is at the stage where we're overwhelmed by the amount of shit we've managed to cram in and hide away even from ourselves.
Love it! The goulash pics peppered into it is deliciously surreal. I'll take a paprikash, please. Hold the pasta.
