Talk about a learning curve: Trump I was a babe in the woods, but Trump II is the Alpha Grizzly Bear. While the glass of milk is still far from full - I hate most of his foreign policy, and his energy policy is a fantasy - I am thrilled at the comprehensive ferocity of his attack on The Blob.
Team Trump has to have anticipated from the start that colossal forces would be arrayed to impede him at every step, and their strategy is exactly what is required: Shock and Awe. Knock them off their feet …
Howard, I am calling you out on your first comment. You hate his foreign and energy policies. Other than Israel, what would you suggest to trump if you had his ear?
I am reluctant to condemn Israel geocide against the Palestinians on this forum. Taken on its face, I also disregard any proposed settlement in Ukraine that tries to pretend that Russia has not won the war. That said, I recognize the fact that Mr. Trump is a master of misdirection, and that his current position on Ukraine may be tactical, to avert neocon criticism, while actually working something out with Mr. Putin. As for energy, pretending that we are Saudi America and can achieve long-term …
Imagine the Founding Fathers saying, I'm reluctant to speak against Britain on cobblestones laid by Tories. Or if paper makers weren't for the Revolution, then the Declaration of Independence couldn't have been written.
But yes, these Trump Cultists are nuts. Ordinary people lose the plot very easily. It's like taking candy from a baby.
This time, I used (among the usual other ingredients) four eggs and two 500 ml (four cups) containers of cottage cheese-- no sour cream, yogurt or lemon. It's not bad, but a touch too eggy. So what I'm going to do next time is use the 2 containers of cottage cheese, but use only 3 eggs. In retrospect, it's what I should have done in the first place, since the recipe normally calls for 4 eggs with that amount of cheese (if not cottage) plus a cup (250 ml) of sour cream (I used yogurt).
So, in sum, cut out the yogurt entirely and only use 3 eggs.
What are you trying to make? My recipe: Just pour in a cup of sugar, 2 "containers" of "cottage" cheese, four eggs, half a bag of flour, mix, and bake for 45 minutes at 451.
