  1. Quail balut? Had to Google it

    • 131 friends
    • 564 reviews

    Mely,, Oh I didn't even Google it I should've done that.

    But it was at Olivera eggs (You can see them at major grocery stores) But they have  an actual tiny market. The sign said no quail balut today. I just had to ask if they meant no quail and no balut, but the clerk said it's quail balut. I said you mean the tiny quail and he said yes.,

    I didn't even know it was such a thing. I often see ppl buy trays of regular balut and often wonder why so many.

  2. Did u eat "everything"?

    • 131 friends
    • 564 reviews

    Oh I don't eat balut, but I know about it because at that exit door people drive up open up the van door and start bringing in flats of blue and regular eggs to.

    Lol Joanna. When a friend of mine who part time as an Uber driver said it's so much easier for the driver to just drop it off and go. So when I did my first online order to be delivered I put that in my notes the driver to please drop at the door and do not knock. She said most of the time when it's requested like that it's when a mom has put their children to sleep and no disturbances is a blessing :)

    My mom's uncle won three medals during WW I I, for bravery and high performance. But he never showed them to us while he was alive, because each had a swastika on it

    His regular role was company cook, feeding the multitudes from a Gulaschkanone (q.v.) This was a horse-drawn cart, that was a giant stew pot, with a waterboiler for coffee, with storage for ingredients. Feeding the troops hot meals was essential for morale.

    Mayor Sheng Thao made her first public speech after the Thursday ambush in her home. I think reporter were not asking questions bc it was mentioned she would not take questions. Has anyone watched it?

  2. I watched it, she cut loose. She was mad.

    • 131 friends
    • 564 reviews

    I watched it and she acted upset. Her attorney and public spokes person resigned following her speech. Her lawyer saud he wasn't even aware of this speech and would not advise her to bring in her attacks on certain groups. As for the public spokes person, I don't know that person's reasoning for resigning.

    I don't usually watch her on the news, but she kind of looked stressed, pissed at her make up, reminded me of a mannequin.  I know I know it's a vanity observation. But it is part of her public perception.?

    Steve, I watched this re: Sheng.  Is the owner of the waste company her half brother? Also, the printer who made flyers against Shens opponent is still owed $60 for mailers that were mailed out, so I'm wondering if that's part of the USPS interest, as well as money laundering. It mentioned the house she rents is her baby daddy, Andre Jones, moms home. This has lots of twists and turns..
