Managed to tear two items of clothing in two successive days: a pair of pants at the knee, when I fell in the BART station (they were on the way out anyway), and the lining around the sleeve of my winter coat as I stretched to close a window on the F streetcar.
I hope you didn't tear your knee!! Not sure what it is with coat lining anymore, but I find it tears too easily.

Marcella beans with Italian sausage in arrabbiata sauce. New recipe for me and it was a hit. This is all that's left. I won't tell you how much there was to begin with but it was a lot.
Kishor Viognier Galilee 2019 to drink.
That looks wonderful. Is that pepperoni?

Last weekend we packed up a couple of boxes of travel guides, too. Spouse really wanted to keep them, but I convinced him to let them go. He kept travel journals for nearly every trip he ever took, so has those to reflect back on.

Naan pizza. Not as sexy as the real stuff you all make, but they were quick and easy and quite tasty.

All look delicious! My favorite way to reheat leftover pizza is in a skillet (cast iron preferred) on the stove top with a lid on it. Gets hot, crust doesn't get soggy but also doesn't get too dried out--was reminded by your pan pizza.

Meatloaf, potatoes and carrots. Comfort food for the dreadful cold we've had/are having.

Monsieur Spade with Clive Owen on AMC. The first episode of six is extremely convoluted revolving around Sam Spade of "The Maltese Falcon" fame 20 years later arriving in the south of France with a young girl in tow. The tranquil countryside and the pace of the show contrast with talk of Nazis, blackmail, Algeria and various killings presumably the work of some very violent man. Spade seems able to consume large volumes of liquor while halfway trying to stop smoking, having been given an ironic lecture from his doctor about the dangers of cigarettes. Thus far, his personal vices appear the least of his worries.
Thanks for this. I'd forgotten to mark my calendar. I'll give it a try, but suspect if it is convoluted that the husband with dementia will not be able to follow it and will get upset by it. Might be something I'll have to watch at another time.

You can come to my house for tomato soup and grilled cheese for nothing. Except that I'm out of bread, so you'll have to bring your own.

Saltburn. That is one deeply silly movie.
We must be too old for it. We got through about 15 minutes and turned it off.

@MitchW Thanks for providing the recipe--that looks wonderful.

How are you all roasting the cabbage: as a whole head or in quarters (or otherwise)? I’ve seen various versions on the internets. Also “slow” roasted? Every search with that seems to return recipes calling for high heat. As I eat a lot of (braised) cabbage, I’m quite looking forward to trying this.
I'm a brown food person. I cut into chunks, toss with oil and seasonings, roast at 425 until it looks right, then switch the oven to air fry to brown it.

Chakalaka is a South African bean and vegetable dish that's usually served as a braai side. N made it yesterday with RG Bayo Gordo beans as a side to roast chicken with lemon and herbs. Some bugs got into the cornmeal we usually use for pap (even though it was in Tupperware), so Bob's Red Mill Polenta had to substitute.
That sounds delicious. I could see it made with black-eyed peas, too. Might give it a try!

They never talked about that on the Batman show!

Mary Risley, one of SF's top cooking instructors, simplifies Thanksgiving in this irreverent video.
Hilarious!

@MitchW How is the Silk Chili? I keep seeing ads for it. Food looks delicious, BTW.

Wow! That looks fantastic!

Bosch Legacy. I love that they've brought in so many of the characters (Crate & Barrel!!! <3) from the original series.

Anaheim, schmanaheim. You can get to so many places from there. You're just a few miles from Artesia AKA Little India, which has many delightful small Indian shops and restaurants. I've been gone for so many years now that I have no idea what is new and wonderful in the area, but you're so near Long Beach which probably still has many great places and for another taste of local, go the other direction down to Santa Ana and find one of the many small family-owned Mexican restaurants.
If you are indeed stuck in Anaheim, what Hollywood said--try to get into Club 33, as it is an experience like none other.

We've already gone thru a box or so & have stocked up on them for continued pleasure.
So, given Sneak's comment about intentional non-reproducing -- of the most recognizable posters here on MF, anyone ever take a look at the % who didn't/don't have offspring? I'd say its pretty far over the average, no?
Count me amongst the intentional non-reproducers.

I adored The Avengers!
We started watching Night Sky on Prime. I think it is great, but Don seems upset by it, understandably since it hits a bit too close to home for him with his dementia and advanced age.

I had such a crush on him back in Ilya days. RIP

Kansas City. Missouri. The "guns are OK, everyone should pack one" attitude. Sell a gun to anyone, no matter the age. Lives don't matter. Kids don't matter. When I turn on the news in the morning, if there wasn't a shooting, I feel like I'm not in the right place. WTH has happened to this place!
