I'm about to try to cook some sweet potato curry!

Fork tender and golden

Spread florets from 1 head of cauliflower on a baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon each of paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, garlic powder, coarse salt. Then drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Roast at 450 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.

I had no idea that was a thing.

I am having Cinnamon cauliflower. It's making my lips burn and I kind of dig it.

Ah, a favorite for those who work in healthcare!

This was a nice chapter to read. It was different than what I expected, but in a good way.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo

I had a disturbing song I heard on the way to work stuck in my head for half a day. It made me moody and snappish...like more than usual, that is.

My sister sings it in the car to annoy her husband during long car trips. 🎵

I have a Chase as well. He's a lot younger than this guy though. Morning!

Chase? Is that a suggestion? Because I can definitely chase this guy...

I love this word. It's fun to say.

I boiled the sweet potato and mashed them and mixed in some cream cheese, then scooped out the tomatoes, put the sweet potato in and cooked them in the oven. The sweetness paired well with the acidity of the tomatoes. I'm definitely making them again.

Dayum. People used to call me the Queen of Mean, but I think I might have to hand over my crown. I'm so torn reading this, so sad for Stefan and so angry at the horrible toxic people who are making his life hell. This is a difficult read in all the right ways.

My sister got me a vegetarian cookbook for Christmas and I just made Sweet Potato-Stuffed Tomatoes. They were amazing.

Well, someone did compare me to @Cia so that was pretty awesome.

What gave me away? Was it the cats? It was the cats, wasn't it?

The two of them are adorably awkward. Glad you enjoyed it!

I agree. Thanks!

I'll take gleefully surprised any day. These two are cute and were so much fun to write. Hopefully things will go smoother from here on out. Scaphism was the worst that I was able to come across. But those are pretty bad too. Thanks for commenting.

I wrote this an as antidote for Semi Charmed Life. Thank you for reading both of them, and I'm glad you liked this one so much!

Harlequin can keep their mitts to themselves. Tessa is a good friend, but I'm not sure if I would want to date her. Kade and Toshiro are off to a good start. Thanks for commenting!

I think in some cases, it can be helpful. I grew up in the 90s. I knew lesbian and gay, but that was about it. I didn't know bisexuality was a thing. When puberty hit, I was very confused and frustrated with myself for not being able to "figure out" my orientation. I could remember having a crush on a guy in my class, but also noticing how pretty some of the girls were as they walked down the hall. I thought that I could be attracted to girls or boys, not both. I thought that there was something wrong with me, like maybe I was gay and didn't want to admit it, or straight and didn't want to admit that, or that I was a mess who just couldn't make up my mind. If I knew what bisexual was in high school, that would have helped. I don't think I would have wanted to "label" myself that at the time, but it would have been nice to know that something like that existed. Labels can be used to hurt others as well...I think it comes down to how they are used.

I was surprised that I knew most of these. Not clear on the difference between pansexual and omnisexual though.
