No, I am not expecting to see Donald Trump arrested today. If it happens, it happens. It's interesting that you don't have to do a lot of Googling or Binging or however you search the 'net to find a few "legal experts" telling you the case against him is rock solid while other "legal experts" tell you it's iffy and he might escape serious consequences. The other looming prosecutions seem more serious and more dangerous for the man.
It's been raining a lot in California and starting yesterday, I began to get e-mails asking if I was safe. Answer: As safe as I ever am. One has to remember that this is a big state and you can see news stories about massive flooding in California that only apply to 5% of all of California. I live in a flat, urban area away from rivers and mountains and forests. But I appreciate the concern.
I'm prepping for WonderCon, working on my taxes, doing whatever it is I do on Groo and watching as a bevy of skilled construction workers repair the damage done to my home in December when a major water pipe suddenly gave out and destroyed about a third of my kitchen. Nothing was damaged that is not replaceable but it's still cost me a lot of time and attention and dealing with insurance folks. Things should settle down in the coming weeks so posting here should become more consistent.
I'm always on the lookout for food I can prepare in a hurry and my current go-to is a huge bag of frozen Trident Fish Sticks. The box in the photo above is 15 ounces but from Costco, I got a sack of 64 ounces for just under twenty bucks. Other makers of frozen fish sticks do not recommend microwaving their product and I'm sure that if I took the time to fry — or even air-fry — these, they'd be crispy.
But the Trident folks say you can pop three in the microwave for 90 to 180 seconds and what I get is darn good, darn cheap and darn fast. It's Alaska Pollock with a minimum of breading…not the healthiest, best meal I could have but when things get hectic here, I'm glad to have 'em in my freezer. They're in there between the Meatballs & Mozzarella Hot Pockets and the Just Bare Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Original Fillets.
