Other people can take care of politics, I need a serious break. I'm going to escape for a bit into publishing from my food and cocktail blog and adorable little pieces like this. www.facebook.com/share/r/1E6d...

Notice how the most celebrated and successful space mission in *decades* was run by at least 50% “DEI hires”—not all white men? And not even all Americans. Maybe diversity *is* strength . . .

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES DOJ lawsuit to gain access to Michigan’ unredacted statewide voter registration list. Another BIG victory for our clients and voters. Another stunning defeat for Pam Bondi. www.democracydocket.com/cases/michig...

Whoa! BIG NEWS: Elise Stefanik has dropped out of the race for New York Governor and will not be seeking reelection in Congress!

𝗣𝗮𝘃𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗱 I made these for New Year's Eve last year so very few actually saw them and then this year? Well, I'm late, oops I forgot! But really SO easy. It's meringue but baked and hardened and then topped with fruit and whipped cream. 😋 creative-culinary.com/mini-pavlova...

😓

𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗧𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 I've made English Toffee for years but one day a friend offered me some from a Christmas gift and it was amazing. A bit extra. She snagged the recipe for me and there was something unique, and believe me; it is the BEST! creative-culinary.com/english-toff...

Fox News’ Chief National Security Correspondent. We are about to go to war for oil, while citing a lie as justification. Again.

Just when I thought I couldn't admire the man more... 🎯 🎯 🎯 💯 💯 💯 👍 👍 👍

Another old family favorite? These Peanut Butter and Butterscotch Haystacks. They are as simple as combining melted peanut butter and butterscotch chips with Chow Mein noodles and peanuts . The result is a crispy, sweet, and salty treat. creative-culinary.com/peanut-butte...

I hear you...can we all meet up somewhere? Maybe a community of believers in the truth would be good. Sigh. 💔

I have a food and cocktail blog and cocktails are always popular. But my heart is warmed by the fact that on Christmas, some old family recipes are favored. Starting with these Old Fashioned Date Nut Bars creative-culinary.com/old-fashione...

Do you have leftover Cranberry Sauce and pretty much over it? Try this! A Cranberry Sauce Mojito is the sauce, rum, lime, mint, and ginger beer and it's both delicious and beautiful!

Love pomegranates but find them impossible to use because of the mess? Tried the 'tricks' including smacking them with a spoon or cleaning them underwater? This is the most natural and best way to get the maximum number of arils with a minimal amount of mess! creative-culinary.com/best-way-to-...

What a topsy-turvy time we live in.

I don't do a lot of memes but every now and then I see one that makes me chuckle. God knows we need to chuckle every now and then! Lots of truth in these two memes today!

The 37 ballroom donors won’t be remembered for generosity, but for funding a monument to authoritarian vanity during a shutdown, at a venue nicknamed after a sex trafficker, while Americans wonder how they’ll eat. History keeps receipts & their names aren’t coming off those walls

Not sure that the military needs lectures from a makeup-wearing TV host and a senile draft-dodger

Yay... always great to see the power of the people!

𝗕𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 & 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗰𝗸𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 When I joined Blue Sky I vowed to stay close to what I love, sharing the food & drinks on my blog. Easier said than done but I need to do this & we all need a break from the non-stop barrage. Join me, here's the number one cocktail for fall! tinyurl.com/2x4c6htf

It's Time to Release the Epstein Files. People who fight this hard to hide something have something to hide. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

🚨🔥Trump/Epstein Cover-Up🔥🚨 Everybody please REPOST this and every other story, meme, photo, and rant. Keep this story at the top of the news! mdavis19881.substack.com/p/epstein-vi...

It’s not the first time Jim Jordan has covered for sexual abusers. The Republican Party is no longer functioning as a political party. It’s a child sex trafficking and sexual abuse ring. Reprehensible.

I remember the first time I had a Watermelon Margarita. I met a friend for dinner at Chili's and we ordered fajitas and watermelon margaritas. The fajitas were great but the drinks were disappointing. I got to work the next day. Oh yeah much better! creative-culinary.com/watermelon-m...

Rigging can only stretch so far, then it breaks. And when the moment comes, those who previously held back will remember Newsom's response. What their blue majority can do....

The Alaska summit was more than a failed negotiation; it was a public abdication of American leadership. By rolling out a red-carpet welcome for Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump offered legitimacy to an indicted war criminal and shattered the international consensus of his diplomatic isolation.

Turns out that striking a deal with Vladimir Putin isn't as easy as striking a deal with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Remembering the good old days..

I mentioned to someone that there are men preaching this today and he told me I was a liar. How handy that it was a video!

🎉🍾🎂❤️‍🩹😋❤️‍🩹🎂🍾🎉 Celebrating THIRTY years of sharing food and cocktails online. Before Twitter, before Facebook, even before Google, I was sharing what I loved from my kitchen! Today it's a Watermelon Moscow Mule Float. Perfect for a summer celebration! creative-culinary.com/watermelon-m...

RECIPE - Watermelon Mint Mojito It's been a week of watermelon! Watermelon appetizer, salad, drinks, and one more tomorrow that's a dessert, if a boozy one! Today is a Watermelon Mint Mojito, another beautiful, bright, and delicious watermelon cocktail! creative-culinary.com/watermelon-m...

From thebulwark.com "The very idea that Trump’s former personal lawyers would play a role, much less a potentially decisive role, in determining whether he was complicit in any of Epstein’s misdeeds is an insult to our criminal justice system."
