What did you cook or eat today? (December 2025)

[JAS_OH1]

Maybe Ohio-ese would suffice in this instance… “done did,” as in “He done did come home.”

Not up here in Northern Ohio. That's Southernese. Really I'm thinking Kentuckynese.

I guess that's a use of language problem.

"Was coming" implies it didn't happen in our family. "Has come" means it did happen.

I thoughtfully for a while there all your effort had gone to waste.

That's how I read it too. But GH lives in a state where they say "youinz" to mean "you all"...

No worries, every state in the union manages to butcher the English language in some fashion. And many of us here in the US only speak one language, so you'd think we'd be good at mastering it instead of effing it up!

Nope, not in most places, maybe in the hills.

My youngest finished this year's first semester in college and was coming home for a month, so I wanted to have nice dinner ready for him to return. I had a window today between 11:30, where I wrapped up with work, and 6:30 where I needed to head to my company's Christmas Party. In that interim, I made braised short ribs (and chuck roast) with roasted cauliflower purée and glazed carrots, topped with gremolata for him. The braise alone was 3.5 hours 284*F/140*C, and I worked almost non-stop in that interim to prepare everything else. This cooking can be a labor of love, I'll tell ya! View attachment 138179

Woke up feeling rough as houses.
Managed to sling some random ingredients that were within arms reach into the slow cooker.
Fingers crossed Gochujang fixes everything

Captain Morgan Rum and coke - nothing better on a cold winters evening; UNLESS, I am in Oz when it would be Bundeburg Rum and Coke
