spring roll? summer roll? salad roll? hand roll? ive seen different variations on the name, but the package says banh trang so i suppose thats what they are. made these as a roll-your-own at the table, which made for a good time for my preschooler.
i wasnt able to fit the other bits in the photo, but i served it with rice, date and walnut ssamjang, pickled lobak, and a (store bought) vegan kimchi
carrot, courgette, spinach, soy glazed shiitake, quick pickled cucumber, vegan kimchi, and gochujang sauce. i promise rice is at the bottom.
had some leftover ingredients to use up, and i needed a cheap meal, so i made some polenta with soymilk and tossed some sauteed crimini mushrooms in pizza sauce.
i like making a bento style lunch with 4-5 different dishes. this week i tried a french theme.
my wife had a rough end of the day yesterday. it was mostly a nice day with our daughter (turning 4 in may) while i was at work, then out of nowhere she got hit with "i dont love you" while they were transitioning between activities. no conflict or anything.
while trying to talk it out, my daughter started saying that my wife hit her in the face and pushed her in the pool on our trip to puerto vallarta in october which is completely untrue (besides me there were four other in-laws around us at all times during the trip so there wouldve been drama if that did happen). my wife broke down because she didnt know how to handle that (what if she decided to say that in front of a teacher?).
then she just dropped it. she didnt seem remorseful, and she also didnt even say i love you to her. so when i get home, almost like rubbing it in, she starts singing a song about how she loves me. this and the fact that i was diagnosed with adhd as a kid makes me feel guilty for making my wifes job way more difficult.
this is all compounded by my wife raising her voice at my daughter a couple of times recently. she has always been the kind of kid who pushes boundaries to the max, who always grabs things without asking, whose reaction to school pickup and ending a day at the park is to run away and make us chase her. the incidents of my wife raising her voice were when my daughter decided to run while she was on a busy avenue, because despite drilling it into her head every time we get to a crosswalk, we dont trust that she wont impulsively ignore what shes supposed to do. since then she has ssid a few times she didnt want mommy to be with us for breskfast, which she and i make together every morning, "because what if she gets mad?"
really sorry for the rant and a half here, but its been that kind of day. so, i love my daughter, but i really wish she could just learn to chill out.
furiously scratching out star rats haha yea i noticed that too
i always assume they just stopped listening, my brain doesnt let me think people can be attracted to me.
"applicants must be without decent, safe, and sanitary housing" is that a hard stop or is there some flexibility on that condition? im not trying to pry into your previous situation, but that makes it sound a bit more dire than the average renter.
at least hes still doing the lateral podcast for the time being.
that is a nice conundrum. almost like it is impossible to become a billonaire if the desire to benefit society is too high on your priority list.
yea munch was featured in some crossover between homicide and the original law & order, so when homicide got canceled in 99 they offered richard belzer a spot as munch on svu since it was in the works at the time and he was already in universe
not to mention starting detective john munch's career
the way i see it, on big budget productions anyone who is relying on their paycheck to survive already got paid for their work, and the ones collecting royalties or sales percentages are rich enough that i couldnt care less. smaller independent studios or individual creators are the ones that i will always support, and in cases like itch.io games that are pwyw i will take the free download and figure out how much i will pay based on how much i like the game.
i think this is my third commemt, already almost equal to the amount i made on reddit in all those years i was there.
fun might not be the right word, but I've been playing New Vegas and trying to throw out every piece of trash I can find. if adding an item to my inventory would cause karma loss, I use grab and move it over next to a trash can. I also separate the different kinds of trash, and in McCarran and Vikki and Vance I cleaned up the bar/restaurant areas by stacking plates and cups, and disposed of all cigarettes into ash trays. its... exhausting, really.
there is a website for a pizza place in seattle whose website does this, maybe you can get some inspiration. dinos
