My life has changed so much since December 2018. I remarried January 7th, 2023 ... we sold the house, sold our vehicles - and bought a new 4x, a puppy, & a 5th Wheel to travel the mainland States and experience life in the slow lane. As always I record e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. happening in my life: I will share lots of pics & vids of our USA travels: I hope you enjoy our Blog.
What happens when a hateful, spiteful, and totally biased Congress lies before Congress … and openly and deliberately GOES AFTER SOMEONE THEY DISAGREE WITH? (http://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2019/09/wasps.html)
They get spanked!
Hard.
Thank YOU, Elohim that this nonsense has been shut down :-D
Now, can YOU, please, get Pelosi and her posse dethroned?
So, I had Pristine Window Washer man here earlier to wash all the windows and skylights before Fall arrives in full force; after he left, I went outside to pull down the WHY Trap and get that stored over the Winter months so I can use it again …
I counted 75 wasps killed.
Back inside, my white Christmas cactus is loving it’s placement by the window … and I am wondering why it is blooming so early – and will I be able to keep it blooming through the holidays, when it should naturally BE blooming:
And dealing with wasps of a different type – and a whole lot harder to get rid of; in this next instance, political wasps … When I tried to log in to FB earlier, I discovered my account had been locked: {{(1) Recent activity may have affected your account's security, so we've locked it.

I don’t even KNOW HOW TO ‘tag’ people!
Obviously, someone, no doubt a demoncrat suffering a political wedgie, had been offended by something I posted and sent it to zuckerman’s stoolies (aka ‘FB Team’), and they, being the goose-stepping-zombies they are, locked me down.
So, I threw a fit …
FB never did tell me what I did that was punishable by being locked out and blocked - and you know what? Even if they had, it's moot. AS AN AMERICAN ... a LEGAL American, MY RIGHT IS FREE SPEECH. No matter who is offended by it.
… and they unlocked me shortly. I want to state that I am not a 'Trumpster' – though I DO stand by President Trump; I stand by him because he IS our President, and he has done MORE FOR Americans & America than ANY President I have watched in Office since I started watching politics in 1966: I have SEEN A LOT of Presidents ... and 1 illegal and snarky 'prez' come and go, and NEVER SAW A ONE OF THEM that EVER had the interests of America or Americans at the forefront: I saw a LOT of politics being played, but NEVER saw a President act Presidential. I CAN SAY THAT Donald J. Trump ... from what I have seen, heard – and understand upsets those who hate America and Americans – DO, IS for the betterment of America and Americans.
So, I stand with our President.
But, the Will of Elohei will always be 1st with me - HE will accomplish His Will in this matter.
And the devilish demoncrats and fence-straddling libtards will have little, to nil, to say/do about it: they are Lucifer's tools and will continue to act the fool no matter what.
That said, this whole thing is a shameful sham and needs to be shut down!
It is a total waste of time, taxpayer money, and takes away from serious issues concerning out great Nation that need to be addressed and attended to.
**RED FLAG ALERT:The {whistleblower} said in the accusatory report that caused this hysterical demoncrat wildfire: "I was not a direct witness to most of the events described, however, I found my colleague’s accounts of these events to be credible because in almost all cases multiple officials recounted fact patterns that were consistent with one another."**
SERIOUSLY????
THIS is WHAT set pelosi's pants on fire and got her geriatric scanky ass moving?
3, 4 … possibly TEN OR MORE … second-hand {accounts} voiced by BIASED PARTIES is "credible facts"?
Is this what Americans deem FACTUAL now?
If it is, IT IS SHAMEFUL HOW LOW Americans have sunk - they are dragging their bellies on the ground, like lying snakes.
And YOU had better watch out too - because if THIS is how 'criminal offenses' are viewed now, YOU could be the next one on the hot seat just because someone hates you and what you stand for.
This is NOT what America stands for ... and this is NOT how Americans are proven guilty.
SECOND-HAND HEARSAY IS NOT FACT.
And it really pisses me off that people with a particular and perverse political bent can cause so much trouble for people they disagree with. Since the obama terror era, people have lost their minds and are too easily offended, and too quick to offend with no basis for a fight – fair, or otherwise.
Bob didn't particularly like funk ... but he liked the meals coming out of the kitchen when I was in there shaking my booty while whipping up Supper to the backbeat of KC ;-)
And that is what I was doing Tuesday and Wednesday – having a Fall Cookathon while shaking my booty. LOL
My freezer meals are low again, so I thought while it is raining …
… now would be a good time to engage in a Fall Cookathon to replenish the freezer. The humidity, as usual here in the PNW, was miserable; so I had the kitchen window opened while cooking.
I cooked up a chicken meal, & 2 beef meals – I made a pot roast Monday night for Supper … and divided up the portions for future meals, so I will use the broth to sip after I have my tooth pulled on the 30th, and my gum is healing.
I know my meals cooked at the moment are not varied by way of meats, but my body is craving beef, so that is what I went with: I can add fish meals later on to balance things out ;-)
The chicken meal comes from my Bon Appetit, September 1986 cooking magazine; and it takes 2 days to complete, so I started that meal first, and put it in the ‘fridge to marinade, while I made the other 2 meals.
The cubed steak meal will be reheated while the meat loaf is baking – and eaten tonight for Supper. The meat loaf will be portioned out and froze for future meals.
The meat loaf recipe is a favorite of ours, and I clipped it from an old 1986 Vouge magazine. This fancy meat loaf is spectacular to see, and tastes wonderful. The meat loaf can be cooked in individual loaf pans … or in one big loaf and portioned out in individual servings – it makes 8 large servings or 16 smaller portions: it is worth every calorie! Serve the meat loaf with side dishes of rich mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach.
I can never find a cube steak recipe in my vast recipe collection … so I have to go online to find one: the recipe I found is found on the Eating Well webpage, and it is simple to make, but packs a tasty punch ;-) I paired it up with oven baked potatoes & broccoli, and a homemade dinner roll.
The tandoori chicken meal wakes up your taste buds and makes the house smell divinely spicy while it cooks. Serve the Tandoori Chicken with side dishes of coconut rice, a cucumber; a tomato, & yogurt salad; onion flatbread; and seasonal fruits.
I kept Supper light, Wednesday when the chicken was fully marinated – I had a busy day in town before I came home and grilled the chicken, so all I ate was a leg, a wing, and a large serving spoon of rice – it was delish ;-)

==72 MARKET STREET MEAT LOAF~ 8 servings
¾ cup minced White Onion * ¾ cup minced Green Onion * ½ cup minced Celery * ½ cup peeled, and minced Carrot * ¼ cup minced Green Bell Pepper * 2 teaspoons smashed, peeled, and minced Garlic * 3 Tablespoons unsalted Butter * 1 teaspoon Salt * ¼ teaspoon Cayenne pepper * 1 teaspoon freshly ground Black Pepper * ½ teaspoon freshly ground White Pepper * ½ teaspoon ground Cumin * ½ teaspoon ground Nutmeg * ½ cup Half-n-half * ½ cup Catsup * 1-1/2 pounds lean ground Beef * ½ pound ground Pork * 3 Eggs, beaten * ¾ cups dry toasted Bread Crumbs
Preheat over to 350-degrees. Sauté white & green onions, celery, carrot, green & red peppers, and garlic in butter until softened. Cool to room temperature.
Combine salt, cayenne, black & white pepper, cumin, & nutmeg – stir into cooled vegetables; add half-n-half, catsup, ground beef, pork, eggs, & crumbs: form into loaves (or loaf). Place on baking sheet (or oven rack), and bake for 45-50 minutes … or until no longer pink in center.
While meat loaf is baking, prepare gravy (recipe follows).
Cool meat loaf for 5 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Heat juices remaining in the baking sheet on top of the stove and deglaze with gravy – scraping up any browned bits of meat loaf that are still on the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Strain sauce. Slice meat loaf (individual loaves may be sliced into 8 slices for serving). Arrange on plate with accompanying vegetables and spoon gravy over top.
==MEAT LOAF GRAVY~Makes 1-1&½ cups
1 Tablespoon peeled & minced Shallots * 2 Tablespoons unsalted Butter * 1 pinch dried Thyme * 1 Bay Leaf * 1 pinch finely ground Black Pepper * 1 cup dry White Wine * 1 cup Veal OR Beef stock * Salt & Pepper to taste
Sauté shallot in 1 tablespoon butter, until softened, with thyme, bay leaf, & fresh black pepper. Add wine. Cook over high heat until reduced to a glaze. Add the stock and boil until reduced by half – then swirl in remaining tablespoon of butter. Use this gravy to deglaze meat loaf pan as directed above. Season gravy to taste with salt & pepper – be careful as commercially prepare stocks are often very salty already.
3 medium potatoes cut in quartered pieces, and broccoli florets sprayed with Olive Oil cooking spray and placed in a 350-degree oven to bake about 45 minutes.
Oven Baked Potatoes & Broccoli.
I pan-broiled the cubed steak earlier and placed it in the ‘fridge – then placed it in the oven with the meat loaf; to reheat for my Tuesday Supper; they had the same cooking timeframe.

==TANDOORI CHICKEN~6 servings
Indian cooks add red dye to this dish to give it the traditional russet color (I didn't use the red dye ... and I only used half a chicken/halved recipe because there is only me to cook for - and my chest freezer - where I keep my make-ahead meals - is a small one).
TWO 2-1/2 to 3-pound Chickens, cut into serving pieces * ½ cup fresh Lime juice * 4 teaspoons Salt * 2 teaspoons Coriander seeds * 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds * 1 cup plain Yogurt * 1 Onion, peeled & cut into 1-inch pieces * 3 garlic cloves, chopped * 1 Tablespoon chopped, fresh Ginger * 1 teaspoon Cinnamon * ½ teaspoon Turmeric * 1 teaspoon (or more) dried Red Pepper flakes * ½ teaspoon Red or Orange food coloring (opt)* ¼ cup (1/2 stick) Butter, melted * ¼ teaspoon Saffron threads, crushed * Vegetable Oil
Pat chickens dry. Using a small sharp knife, cut several ½-inch-deep slits into each piece. Combine lime juice and salt; rub mixture into chicken. Place in a large nonaluminum bowl. Pour remaining juice over – let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
Heat small skillet over medium-high heat. Add coriander & cumin seeds and toss 1 minute. Transfer seeds to a blender: add ¼ cup yogurt, onion, garlic, ginger, cinnamon & turmeric – blend to a smooth paste. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in remaining yogurt, 1 teaspoon dried pepper flakes & food coloring. Add more pepper flakes & food coloring if desired. Remove chicken from marinade. Blend yogurt into marinade. Return chicken to bowl, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Tandoori Chicken Yogurt Sauce
Bring chicken to room temperature. Prepare barbeque grill (high heat). Position rack 6 to 8 inches above coals. Combine butter & saffron. Drain chicken. Brush grill rack with oil. Place dark meat on grill and cook 10 minutes; brush with butter mixture. Add white meat to grill. Cook chicken until springy to touch; turning and brushing with butter mixture occasionally – about 10 more minutes.
Pour boiling water over coconut – let stand 20 minutes; strain through double thickness of cheesecloth, squeezing to extract as much liquid as possible: reserve coconut liquid.
Melt butter in a heavy large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion & cook until golden, stirring occasionally – about 5 minutes. Add rice and stir until beginning to color – 3 to 4 minutes.
Add coconut liquid and bring to a boil; blend in salt and cardamom. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook until rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed – about 20 minutes. Garnish with toasted coconut and serve.
Follow my example,
even as I follow Mashiach. I want you to give you full credit, brethren, for
not forgetting me, and for upholding the traditions that I passed unto you. And
this I want you to understand, that the head of every man is Mashiach, the head
of every woman is her husband, and the head of Mashiach is Elohim. If a man
prays or prophesies with his head covered, he dishonors his head. On the other
hand – if a woman prays or prophesies with her head uncovered, she dishonors
her head. She might as well have her head shaven. If a woman will not wear a covering
for her head, she should get her hair cut, too. But if it is a disgrace for a
woman to be shorn or shaven, then she should wear a covering.
A man ought not to
cover his head, for he represents the person and glory of Elohei, but a woman represents
the glory of man. Man was not created from woman, but the woman from man.
Indeed, man was not created for the woman’s sake, but woman for man’s sake. For
this reason a woman ought to have on her head a sign of man’s authority for the
angels to see. In the sight of Elohei, man is not independent of woman, and
woman is not independent of man. For just as the woman was created out of man –
man is born of a woman; and everything, including humankind, comes from Elohei.
But judge for
yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to Elohim with nothing on her
head? Does not nature itself teach you that it is a disgrace for a man to have
long hair? But for a woman to have long hair is different; that is her pride,
for her long hair is given to her as a covering. If anyone wishes to argue this
matter, I can say that we have no such custom (of women going bareheaded)
in any of the congregations.
And, while instructing
you, let me mention one thing about which I cannot give you praise: it is this –
that when you come together to worship you often do more harm than good. When
you meet as a congregation, you immediately divide up into factions. This is
what I hear, and I can believe it in measure. Of course, there must be some
division among you, otherwise, those who are right could not be known. Another
thing; when you meet together you do not come to celebrate the Lord’s Supper.
Each one hastens to eat the supper that he has prepared for himself, so that
one man goes away hungry and another gets too much to drink. Don’t you have
homes where you can eat and drink? Or do you simply despise Elohim’s church and
humiliate the poor? What ought I say to you? Praise you? No, I cannot approve.
I receive this
account from Adonai Yeshua, and have given it to you: in the night in which He
was betrayed, Yeshua took bread. And when He had given thanks, He broke it and
gave it to His disciples, saying, “Take, eat; this is My body, which is broken
for you – do this, in remembrance of Me.”
After the same
manner also, when he had supped, He took the cup and, when he had given thanks,
He gave it to them, saying, “All of you drink of it. This cup is the New
testament in My blood, which was shed for you, and for many – for the remission
of sins. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
For as often as you
eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim Adonai Yeshua’s death until He
returns. Therefore, if anyone eats this bread or drinks this cup unworthily, he
will be held to account for Adonai Yeshua’s body & blood. No one should eat
the bread of drink the cup unless he has first examined himself; for if one
eats or drinks unworthily, he eats or drinks judgment on himself: not
recognizing Adonai Yeshua’s body. Because of this indifference, many of you are
feeble and sickly, and some have died. But, if we examined ourselves carefully,
we should escape this misfortune. And in case Elohim passes sentence on us, He
disciplines us to save us if possible from being condemned along with the
wicked world. So, brethren, when you come to celebrate the Lord’s Supper, wait
for one another. Those of you who are hungry should first eat your meal at home,
so that your celebration will not bring His condemnation on you. There are
other questions which I shall try to settle in person when I come.
