Judging from your picture, you speak from experience.... ;D

I was busy in a [ I don't know how else to call it ]-measuring contest with someone in the GYE Universe, and missed BOT's ode.
It is very good! At first I started singing it to the tune of "Zeide" (Zeide made us laugh, zeide made us sing....) but then it's gotten away from me.
I also noticed that while cholent lament recieved some nice reviews, I haven't gotten even one ROFL, which made me think people react more positively to expressions of love, not of hate. (Note to self: more love, less hate).
And lastly, the ode is a pure artist's rendering because in real life

so there. And it's not just this week, buddy, I'm sure of it.
Also, because of short winter Fridays, the kitchen hours are now Sun thru Thur.
Eat a half-pint of cottage cheese with tortilla chips on Fridays, it'll carry you over till kiddush.

:o umm. with all due respect dear friend.... could you perhaps moderfy that little measuring comment in the begining of your post....

toda rabbah.

BOT, I sincerely hope you didn't take that on your account?

i'm all for more love and less hate but just for the record, the lament did have me ROFL, and i posted something to that effect and i also printed it out (along with the ode) and gave it to my wife with the clear exhortation that should she ever feel the need to overcome an addiction this is the clear remedy

I showed my wife the cholent rant too.  She was laughing.

I'm amazed that my cholent ode has made it to sober ears. Of course that inspires me to think about the many volumes and volumes of cholent odeas I could do. I wonder if artscroll would print it. Oh... Who cares. These days you just put your stuff onlinr and evebtually some sick puppy comes along and likes it.

So ode to cholent, ode to frickasee. Ode to sloppe joes, I shant forget thee.
Nuff ode... I'm tired. *nite fellows.

Yup... And make sure to put on your muticolor dreamcoats... Its getting cold out there and I domt need a bunch of sick kids mulling around.. And make sure to finish that buckwheat bean sprout stuff mottle's been servin up. Supposed to keep you immune to the flu. Bug.

My wife is out-of-town, so I'm a single father for a week.
Last night's supper:
Rye bread, thinly sliced smoked turkey breast, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, pickles, canned corn, avocado.
Assembled into sandwiches by participants. Toasted Garlic Mayo, Ketchup, Mustard.
The baby got to bite from everyone's sammich, so I think she was full, too.
Tonight is pizza night (just to show the kids that I am a benevolent father), and then we'll fire up the fireplace and play checkers and eat soft chocolate-chip cookies and milk.
By the way, you want a good pizza recipe?
1. 1 phone
2. 1 phone book (this is an old joke, ok?)
Directions:
Look up your local pizza shop in the phone book.
Dial the number and order delivery. Don't limit yourself when ordering toppings. They love it when you go: "Do you have sauteed onion? How about garlic? And mushrooms? Olives? Black or green? Is it extra? Oh, never mind then."
Enjoy.
Six-pack of Miller High Life is optional, but it is recommended.

sounds yummy and benevolent

Hey, are we allowed to have odes to cholint and pizza in the same kitchen?

Guard, we need another mechitza!  ;D ;D

I think it's ok as long as the poets have a heker between them when writing their poetry .

Or if there is 6 hours between the posts.
