I was wondering what a convicted murderer facing a possible death sentence was smiling about. But here you go:

Jodi Arias heavily guarded during first court appearance since hung jury - YouTube

ewwww creepy thing, flirty shy smile...blechhh!! Thank you for the footage... the guards' fingers were poised on....? Something. Surely, not a camera...I don't know what. Would any of you know?

I don't know but it looks ominous...
 
Caldillo - From The El Paso Times 1978

2 pounds stew meat
2 cans beef consomme
4 cups of water
1 can salsa (I use 16 oz HOT Herdez red salsa in a jar)
1 large potato, cubed
2 cans chopped green chili

Pressure cook stew meat, consumme and water for one hour. Add salsa, then cook for one hour more. Add potato and chopped chili. Add more water if needed. Pressure cook for another 10-15 minutes.

Can cook in pot and add more meat or potatoes or chili, to taste.

Thank-you, Sulamith.
Now we can talk about anything we want. :seeya:
One more thing- does this come out soupy or thick?
 
The actress that's playing JA in the Lifetime movie said she was in a fog (not those words exactly) on the day they shot the lovemaking/murder scene- it was so intense??
Not another one- the fog, the fog-UGH.
The coming attractions are already making my blood boil- some facts are wrong. Why can't they stick to the facts????
 
Thank-you, Sulamith.

It is soupy...thickens up in the fridge overnight.

I also make Green Chili from the Homesick Texan blog. This recipe is thick but a tad more complicated. If you like Mexican food, you might like Lisa's blog. Check out the King Ranch Chicken.

I wonder what was going through their minds while standing there near her. I would've been like "come on, I dare you....freak out so I can push this button."

(Btw...does anyone else find those guards attractive? Yum. Geez, it sucks being single lol)
 
okkkkk so that's why I couldn't find the original post...I love love love tomatoes, so I went "tomato picking" for Jacylyn cuz the post was victim friendly & thought provoking and "mater glory" seemed a fitting retort!

Random advice for today:

Don't ever call 800 customer service numbers when you have PMS.
It will not end well.

:giggle:

:floorlaugh::floorlaugh: That's a riot. And a right of passage. With PMS and Menopause. As it should be.
 
Hahahah!! I called my health insurance company once when I had the PMS ... It was one of those voice prompted thingies that just drive me up the wall... I had been on the line for 25 minutes and still didn't have a human being on the phone ... I sort of snapped and screamed into the phone " For @^%$ sake...I just wanna talk to someone with a GD heartbeat!!!! " ... The recorded voice comes on ...Please hold while you are being transferred to mental health services... ;P

ROFLMAO :floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh: And how did that work out for ya? LOL
 
Thank you Zuri! I hope so too...you're right of course about being Pollyanna is a good thing....but coming from my boss it was a major insult.

There isn't anything more important than being nice to others.

It's the most important thing. I feel bad for her sometimes, nobody likes her.

Speaks volumes of what a kind person you are :seeya:
 
Ha! That's exactly how it went... I repeated 30 times "I need a referral for an MRI on my knee" ... We're sorry the system does not understand ... SnAp!

Of course it's your fault. You were not enunciating :floorlaugh:
 
I really hate to ask this (I mean really) but does anyone remember when the tootsie pop testimony was? Yesterday I was reading Blink and she said there was only one tootsie pop/pop rock episode, and the afternoon pic has JA with a tootsie pop you-know-where. I was thinking of damaging my ears by listening to that testimony again to see if she does actually say it only happened once. Anyone know which day it was offhand?
 
I have a complaint I'm finally doing something about (after ten years of whining to friends and family).

I have had a very nasty boss for almost ten years. Jeckle and Hyde, good performance reviews and some raises and bonuses, but very rude (to everyone, not just her staff)

She likes to call me in her office and badmouth other managers. I just try and politely nod, but she gets mad if you defend the person. A couple weeks ago I'm just nodding and listening, hadn't said a word, and she goes, "and don't make excuses for him because he's sick!"

I said what? Because I had totally forgotten that manager has MS.

She called me a Pollyanna once..."oh Marla, you're such a Pollyanna."

I guarantee you she did not mean it as a compliment.

At a meeting once a lawyer asked me to e-mail her an organizational chart I had created for a group project, and in the car on the way back to our building my boss (who hates this lawyer), says "don't send her that chart....we're not doing her work for her!"

How's that for complaining! :floorlaugh:

Oh, I could go on and on and on....I stayed for a long time because the job itself really suits me, I get along great with my coworkers, and she does give me good performance reviews.

Anyhow, this week I e-mailed another manager who is really nice and told her I would love to work with her team and planned to apply the next time she had an opening. (I would be writing the documents I now edit.)

But I tell you what, anytime I meet someone with a nasty boss, I am all ears and genuinely feel for them because I really have been here.

Oh, and I'm not a "Pollyanna." I'm just a nice, normal person.


We practically have the same boss. I feel your pain. Good luck on your fishing with the new manager.... maybe she will rescue you!

Wish I could help but I think that may have been when I was away on Vaycay. I'm sure somebody here can point you in the right direction.
 
I don't think that the convict looked worn out, as some have observed/reported. My BFF, who knows little about this trial, said she looked like a princess walking through. I agree. The diva now has burly, scary bodyguards, in her mind. She's so special.

She looks the same.

Reports from HLN call her behaviour "demure". I call it manipulative. This is a dame shackled within an inch of her life, with a major contingent of armed escorts who are solely there to make sure her violent, butchering, conniving, convicted heini doesn't make a wrong move; she is so obviously considered a threat to life and liberty.

She may think she's a diva, but she looks like the average convict. Can't wait till she's gone from our lives. She will play to the cameras until there are no more cameras. I pray that happens soon.

The judge is a wimp, IMO.

I actually thought she looked better yesterday than she did the last week of her trial. Her face was a little fuller. (I guess 23 hours a day with herself agrees with her.)

However, she is so full of herself that she enjoys being the center of attention, no matter what the "occasion" may be. I'm pretty sure, if it were anyone of us, we would have done our best to hide our face in shame behind a guard, but there she was, head held high, in all her glory strutting thru the courtroom like the Queen of England on Coronation Day.

(Sorry about the run on sentence. :truce: )
