Quick and Easy Bread Bowls:
bomberqueen17:

I’m taking it to another level today by trying this out. I’ve halved this recipe, which was sort of A Lot (7 cups of flour no way man) and also reduced the amount of yeast in it because it seemed like a lot, so I’m going to let it rise longer, and this may be that obnoxious thing where someone’s just making something that has nothing whatsoever to do with the original recipe but I just haven’t settled on what bread recipe I like to use ok, so give me a break. Also I still haven’t bought bread flour because last time I did it meant I never baked bread again, so. This is going to turn out just fine except horrible in some way, like all my experiments. I have a tiny kitchen I don’t have room for every kind of flour. 

It’s going to have pot roast in it, a venison pot roast that’s been marinating in a Joy of Cooking marinade recipe for 24 hours, so. We’ll just see how that goes.

Oh I never did write up my last week of codependent recipes. Maybe I’ll do that at some point. Want to know how to eat one chicken for a whole week? I got deets. 

Hey these turned out great! 

The recipe says to pull the extra bread out of the middle and set it aside for some other purpose but uh, i just kinda… left it on the plate and used it to mop up extra liquid from the dish I put in it. It was super good. Chewy. Good flavor.

Ok I’m on mobile in the browser and Tumblr is definitely only showing me posts from last week sometime so I apologize if I miss stuff but there’s apparently nothing I can do, all my settings are to show chronological and it’s not working. Awesome!

Middle-Little Sister got a new job in the financial industry that actually requires her shiny new MBA, but she had to wait for a background check to come through before the hire could be finalized. So she’s been waiting, and hasn’t been able to give notice at her current job, because what if it doesn’t go through, etc. etc. Much worry and nail-biting. 

She texted this morning that it finally came through so she’s got a start date. 

Dude had just been asking em about it so I texted him “ML’s bg check cleared and she starts her new job [date]”

and he wrote back “I first read this as ‘big check’”

“Yes,” I answered, “they came by with one of those like Publisher’s Clearinghouse giant check dealies” and then I added “that’s how she gave her notice at her current job”

It’s a compelling mental image. Giant sign, Ed McMahon, confetti, balloons, “I’m quitting in 2 weeks for greener pastures, peace out homies!” says the giant sign. All jumping up and down and screaming and such. Here Comes The New Job Patrol.

Do they have those commercials anymore? Am I a million years old?

Anyway Dude texted back “actual lol” which is maybe the highest of praises, so.

Ella Hattan, better known by her nom-de-guerre “Jaguarina,” was Colonel Thomas Monstery’s most accomplished student. Born in 1859 in Ohio, she would go on to become widely regarded as one of the greatest swordswomen of the nineteenth century, and perhaps of all time. Hattan would defeat more than sixty men in high-profile combats on both horseback and on foot; according to one major newspaper, more than half of these men were fencing masters. For more details of Hattan’s extraordinary career, her training, and her lengthy master-student relationship with Monstery, see the following article:http://martialartsnewyork.org/2015/03/31/colonel-thomas-monstery-and-the-training-of-jaguarina-americas-champion-swordswoman/

“As soon as she comprehended what his words meant, bang, biff! she landed right and left, and he fell to the ground. ‘Get up, you coward,’ she commanded, and he, overcome by the ringing tones, very foolishly crawled to his knees. Biff! Bang! Right and left landed again, and down he went, and this time he refused to get up and sprawled on the ground, calling for help. It was several days before he was presentable, while Jaguarina laughingly showed her friends in this city the next day that she knocked the fellow down twice without even taking the skin from her rosy little knuckles.” (Los Angeles Herald)

“In the twelfth attack Jaguarina dashed to Wiedemann’s corner, there was a crash of arms, a prolonged ring of steel, a blade was seen to flash through the air, and Jaguarina threw the fragments of a broken sword from her to the ground. In an instant another sword was put into her hand, and again she dashed towards her opponent and slashed right and left, and a moment later the referee announced a point for Jaguarina…the score this time stood five to five. Jaguarina’s friends urged her to be cautious, but she, heeding nothing, rushed at her opponent and cut right and left, Weidemann parrying with all his might and skill. Recovering himself from the first shock, he aimed a cut at Jaguarina in high carte which was met by a strong parry which threw his sword arm out of line, and before he could return his weapon to protect himself, the sound of Jaguarina’s blade was heard on his cuirasse from a vigorous and unmistakable cut in carte, ending the contest with a score of six to five in favor of Jaguarina. The victor at once doffed her helmet and cuirasse and received round after round of applause from those present, many of her more enthusiastic friends throwing their caps high in the air…” (San Diego Union)

“I’m a firm believer in the philosophy that women were meant to be just as robust and hardy as men—and they can be without losing any of their womanliness. In fact, physical culture gives grace, beauty, self-reliance—while taking nothing but aches and dyspepsia.” Ella Hattan

“Despite such accounts, more than one reporter who met her, expecting to meet a “fierce faced Amazon,” was shocked to find that Hattan exuded grace, refinement, and, as one put it, “perfect self-control and sweetness.” “

“After training for three years under Monstery, Hattan left to travel the world, andbecame a sensation with the foil, saber, broadsword, singlestick, rapier, dagger, bayonet, lance, Spanish knife, and Bowie knife, defeating fencing heavyweights such as Sergeant Owen Davis of the U.S. Cavalry, the famed knife duelist Charles Engelbrecht of the Danish Royal Guard, and the fencing master E. N. Jennings of the Royal Irish Hussars.”

“Under Monstery’s tutelage, Hattan would go on to become recognized as one of the greatest swordswomen of the nineteenth century, and perhaps of all time.”
