If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

Friday Recipe Exchange: Orange Bread

tamara orange bread

From our Food Goddess, TaMara:

I love fruit breads. It took me a long time to move beyond banana bread, but strawberry bread and lemon bread are high on my list of favorites. I had never made orange bread before, but this week when it was clear I had a half dozen Clementine oranges that were going to go bad if I didn’t use them soon, I decided to give it a try.

Basically, what I did was adapt my strawberry bread recipe, with some additions I thought would work with oranges – ginger and a bit of limejuice.

Here’s the original Strawberry Bread recipe (click here).

And here is Nigella Lawson’s Clementine Cake recipe (click here), which is what I usually make with my extra oranges.

I love oranges and I’m always looking for different recipes for them. Do you have a favorite orange recipe? What about other fruit recipes? Hit the comments with your ideas.

Now for the featured recipe:

Orange Bread

1 ½ cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/8 tsp ground ginger
½ tsp salt
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil or butter
6 Clementine oranges
2 tsp limejuice

Glaze
2 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp melted butter
1/2 tsp vanilla
Hot water
blender or food processor, large mixing bowl, loaf pan – greased and lightly floured

Bread:

First, I did these in mini-loaf pans and it made 3 loaves. It will make one loaf in a regular loaf pan.

Peel 3 of the oranges and split in half. Cut the remaining 3 UNPEELED oranges into 4-6 pieces. Add all to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Clementine peels are easily blended smooth and give a nice tart flavor – like instant zest. If you’re using regular oranges, peel them all and add about 2 tbsp of orange zest to the recipe.

In mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Add eggs, oil, oranges, limejuice and stir until all ingredients are moistened, do not over beat. Spoon batter into loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes (30-45 minutes for mini-pans) or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes then run knife around edges & remove to cool on wire rack.

Glaze:

Blend together sugar, butter and vanilla, add hot water a bit at a time until it is thin enough to drizzle over loaves. If you add too much water, just add some more sugar. Let glaze cool completely, stir again and then drizzle over completely cooled loaves.

    Thanksgiving time, I get some prunes, dried apricots and maybe one other dried fruit.

    Soak them all in some inexpensive brandy for several days (refrigerated), covered tightly with plastic wrap.

    Bring to room temp, drain them and toss them into the cavity of the turkey before it goes into the oven. Just a couple of handfuls is enough to give a subtle tang to the cooked bird.

    Make sweet roll dough. After rolling out, sprinkle sugar and then grate orange peel. Roll up, cut and back. You can taste just enough of the orange and it is heavenly. It isn’t bitter.

    Also, a bit of fresh orange juice on cooked carrots.
    Make a chocolate cake. Use fresh orange juice in a butter frosting. Ice the cake. Pour melted chocolate over top of cake. Very rich.

    OT, but this is the funniest thing I’ve read in couple of months, and just had to share it with everyone.

    AV Club — The Internet finally reaches its apex as man marrying My Little Pony character writes angry email to erotic pony artist:

    The Internet—the global system of interconnected networks that’s become an increasingly central means of commerce and communication capable of bringing far-flung civilizations together—reached its apex this week, after a man claiming to be the fiancé of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic character Twilight Sparkle contacted a user of online community DeviantArt to demand he stop drawing sexual pictures of his imaginary pony-bride. The request was made in a letter that was then published in full on the Internet, which no longer has any reason to exist, having achieved everything it has ever set out to do.

    And it just gets better:

    “I would really appreciate it if the next time your birthday comes around you would request that your clop artist friends (who like to give you sexually oriented pony art as gifts) draw some pony other than Twilight Sparkle for you,” one grown man typed to another, using the system developed through decades of work by British scientists and military contractors. Their dedication paid off in their descendants’ easy access to forums where other, similarly pioneering men could discuss their love for a cartoon pony show…

    And that’s just the first two paragraphs. I haven’t even read the rest of it yet. I’ll be back in a few minutes …

    Isn’t it wonderful, and fascinating, how completely invested we all are in each other’s lives and pets and ups and downs and new experiences? Every now and then, I get quite sentimental about this unique and fabulous BJ community. The Koda saga is one of those times.

There’s nothing I love more than a cook who actually eats the food they make. (I’m side eyeing you Rachel Ray.) Oh, and Nigella is 53. I thought she was in her mid-late 30’s.

    The “bird thing” has been quite an amazing time for my wife and me. It started out with my wife feeding the squirrels out back on our deck with some peanuts a few months ago….

    ….and it has now evolved into an elaborate form of bird watching for us. My wife feeds them every morning now and they hang around just long enough to get fed. If I’m lucky we get a pic or two and also catalog the birds that show up. The list is getting longer by the day….

    We get a lot of hummingbirds in So Cal, so what I really want is a nice fuschia or something that will attract them to our miniature balcony. It would be like cable TV for the cats.

    Oh awesome, but…the house is fake?! My fantasy of being in Nigella’s actual London flat, not a fake set, is ruined!! In the other show she’s clearly stepping off the street into what I assume is an actual house, so maybe that’s as far as they go and then the rest is filmed on set?

    Foregone Conclusion

    Fun fact: Nigella Lawson’s father was Margaret Thatcher’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the one who slashed taxes for the wealthiest. No reason to dislike her, of course…

    Since when are jays uncommon in the LA area? Scrub jays are reasonably common at lower elevations. Steller’s jays are mostly found in the mountains, but they’re quite common there. You’ll see them all over the place if you know what to look and listen for.

    I can’t do the red liquid in the feeder — I’m just too lazy to change it enough and would probably end up poisoning the poor things by mistake.

    It’s not that big a deal. I only change mine every week or two, and it doesn’t seem to have done the birds any harm. Admittedly, I can put mine in the sun, so the UV should be killing a lot of kinds of microbial nasties. Two suggestions for making life even easier with a hummingbird feeder:

    1) Get one that’s dishwasher safe. It seems obvious, but many of them are cheap plastic that’s not dishwasher safe and are a pain to clean by hand.

    2) Don’t bother with the commercial red nectar. You can make a fine nectar from sugar and water (20% sugar by weight) which is cheaper and probably easier than going to the store.

    The biggest issue would be drying out…wrap it well.

    @MattR: The US haven’t won against CR since 2005, so I wouldn’t think they’d be *that* afraid of us.

    @MikeJ: Snow levels the field. More unforced errors, more opportunities for a team like the US to play better due to experience playing in snow.

    Playing in snow is really fucking fun. Except that the ball hurts like hell.

    @Yutsano: it’s also world meteorological day. I’d adopt a meteorologist of my own, but my condo rules forbid it.

    @geg6: Ellie and I are very excited for you. Good luck and enjoy,

    (EDIT: It is not a singular moment, but I don’t think anything beats watching your rescue pet come to the realization that they are in their forever home)
