I made tandoori chicken skewers for lunch today.
First time I ever tried it.
Pineapple chucks and mini sweet peppers also on the skewers.
Broccoli slaw and Greek salad for sides.

Turned out pretty darned good, if I can pat myself on the back.

sorry…no pics…we ate them all…

the chicken was marinated in a Greek yoghurt and tandoori spice mix for 24+ hours in the fridge.
The chicken breasts were huge and I ended up using only one for five skewers. The rest of the marinated chicken is in the freezer for next weekend when MrBWS is home again.

I have ordered a cart for it so that I can have a little bit of counter space so I can prep a few things or have a recipe book open. I have also replaced my old power strip with one that is slightly better. Now I will have enough outlets in the kitchen.

Had the Nixon DOJ sue him for racial discrimination. Had the Central Park Five op ed and not apologizing after they were cleared. Oh and he was King of the Birthers too. He most definitely was seen as a racist before 2016. The people who know Trump the most soundly rejected him like no other candidate before. That should be a hint.

And…

CLAIM: There are only three people who won the Ellis Island award for their work within the black community: Rosa Parks, Muhammad Ali and Donald Trump. Yet the “squad” wants you to believe he’s racist.
AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Trump was one of 87 people to be honored with the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 1986 for his successful work as a developer in New York City, not for his work within the black community.
apnews.com

Not good enough for MAGAts?

We reached out to the Ellis Island Honors Society, which administers the award. The society is a non-political organization promoting diversity and understanding among religious and ethnic groups, as well as the restoration and maintenance of Ellis Island.

Spokesperson Otto Coca told PolitiFact that Trump was one of several people to be awarded the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 1986 - the first year it was given out (and the same year Parks and Ali were also recipients). Trump was chosen for professional contributions that benefited New York City as a developer, as well as for his German heritage.

“That post is ridiculous and an outright lie,” Coca said.

I can’t even begin to tell you how upsetting this is to me. My first teacher in kindergarten was Miss O’Brien and she was black. Now even in the allegedly liberal California Bay Area of 1965, having a black teacher in a pretty much white school was an ISSUE. But my mother insisted that I be put in Miss O’Brien’s class. Two years later, my sister was in Miss O’Brien’s class.

For the first several years of my life, I grew up in a house on a street a block and a half away from my paternal grandparents. My grandfather and his immediate neighbors all worked in the shipyard. A few of them had children my age and we all entered first grade in 1972. 1972 was the year that Portsmouth Virginia elementary school finally integrated.

I and the first grade aged children of my grandparents’ neighbors were all assigned to the same teacher, a black woman. The parents of these kids I grew up with raised a stink and had their kids reassigned to white teachers. Even though my father shared a lot of his parents’ racist assumptions, even belonging to Chandler Harper’s whites-only golf club, my parents insisted that I remain with the teacher to whom I was assigned.

From first through sixth grade, only my second and fifth grade teachers were white, and I think I turned out to be a better person because of that, in conjunction with my mother’s family’s more liberal attitudes on race.

You know, I kind of take for granted that my parents never judged my brothers and mine choice of friends based on something like that. My Dad’s parents were probably more racially liberal than my mom’s but my mom’s mom has told us about her first encounter with Jim Crow as a waitress after moving down here to Virginia from Pennsylvania and it shocking her at its basic cruelty. And my grandfather although he thought it was odd that his famous coworker Richard Loving associated mostly with African Americans on his construction jobs, he never gave him a hard time. My dad’s father was an arbitrator and considered very fair minded and he really resented the n word. Dad’s mom was a sweet lady who had lost her own mom young so I like to think although my grandparents probably had more prejudice than my parents or my brothers, they didn’t let it impact how my parents view black people or anyone who looked different. We weren’t taught to hate. I really appreciate my parents for that.

re: #70 Belafon

Ok, but 50 years ago when I was a kid… to what percentage of the US population’s thoughts/concerns/fantasies did I have access?

For news I could turn on my local NBC or CBS affiliates for their nightly news. That was it. And Sunday morning had a few news shows (back when such things were better.)

My local newspaper carried AP and UPI wire stories, but as a relatively small paper it only had so many pages.

I did have radio, AM/Shortwave/FM (but back then it was only educational stations), so there was a bit of information that could come to me that way.

So yes, Twitter represents only a slice of America (or any country in which it is allowed.) But it’s still a bigger slice than we had a half a century ago.

Segregation was du jure in Pennsylvania before the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed. Our borough pool in Ambridge excluded African-Americans and Jews.

Stores were “restricted”. African-Americans and Jews could not go into the JC Penney store. But they could go in the Sears Roebuck’s.

Clubs were “restricted”. Bars had a “whites-only” policy. Several restaurants did not allow African Americans or Jews to enter.

Our congressman, Frank Clark, was only 1 of 2 Northern Democrats who voted against the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts.

There was a very strong Wallace vote in the 1964 Democratic Presidential Primary against LBJ because of Civil Rights. People forgot Wallace ran against LBJ and got a high share of the vote in PA, MD, IN and WI.

My microwave and coffee maker are on a small cart (Ikea I think) just outside my kitchen since I have such limited counter space. The two drawers and a shelf on the lower part of the cart hold coffee and tea stuff plus my cook books.
