In case you’ve forgotten what a great president looks like:
“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory.”

Words to live by, if I ever.
Sit down and listen, li’l man. You might learn something.
My husband and I both were born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, which only makes it richer to see our great former President #BarackObama give such a rousing and eye-opening speech today in Cleveland. For everyone’s sake, people: #VOTE

Now, THIS is an illegal alien: Euonymus, aka Burning Bush, a beautiful but incredibly invasive, non-native species in many states. I’ve dug up 26 of these in our yard—they were ruining the view—but I’m gonna keep a few, for fun. This thing is 8 feet in diameter!
What a delight it is to speak to the great @SimonMajumdar! Listen to us amuse the heck out of ourselves talking about vexing ingredients, Britpop, and all manner of things on his podcast, @EatMyGlobe! Link in Simon’s post, below.

What herb is also known as the Devil’s Dung?

Here’s another tasty cake from The Babys and John Waite, written by the same songwriters who wrote “Isn’t It Time.”

I LOVE this 1977 song from The Babys, when John Waite was lead singer and bassist: “Isn’t It Time.” Hair, outfits, amazeballs, as is the vocal range it takes to sing this one. Saw them open for Journey when I was about 16.

All while wearing a lavender shirt and horrific matching jacket. Dude, the jokes write themselves. #Garanimals

WOW! Last night, the NYC protesters surrounded Donald Trump’s motorcade.
More of this please! 👏🏽🔥❤️
Aw, man, wish I were there! Are you playing NYC any time soon, @Lloyd_Cole? (I’ll check.)
