Thank you! 😁
My favourite part in cooking is mincing garlic and chopping onions. However, I usually have no idea what to do after that. *Laugh* Thanks for this recipe. This helps.

{ user:stephen.ret } / Sung'manitu

it took me a bit to realize you blocked me, and... you were right: re-reading that "review" made me cringe.*Sick*

Before I continue: usually I don't do what I'll do now, but you at least deserve an answer.

I take a psychiatric drug. Because of lingering side effects impairing me, my doctor and I agreed to lower the dose mid of last week.

But: when the brain's adjusted to it, changing the dose can quite swiftly disrupt its chemistry and cause it to become deranged*Shock*, until it has adjusted to the new dose.*Idea*

That not only made me infer, solely based on the item's subject/title, that it's a lark. I continued "spelling it out" WAY below locker room talk level, which is BAD enough.*FacePalm* But further, because of lacking impulse control, I hit "Send" – without considering the consequences!*Shock2*

That's not an excuse but what happened.

NOW, "sobered", I know I was a Big Fat Moron, who trampled on your feelings.*Cry*

Worse, you aren't alone as 🌻 pwheeler ~ love joy peace Author IconMail Icon, who's running "Habit Heroes Open in new Window., also got a "taste" of lunacy.*Sick*

But Phyllis "knows" me since four years as we interact virtually every day. She knows that I usually don't act like that. However, by sharing what I'm sharing now with you, I could amend to her, and she seems to have accepted my apology.

I hope that you can do that, too.*Pray* I REALLY regret this.*Cry*

You've always been so generous with reviews, MBs and more, and I only wanted to (finally) return the favor.*Idea*

I even "learned" from you: I went over all reviews I'm working on (another broad hint as I usually do them one by one*RollEyes*), to make sure no mental diarrhea sneaked in.*Pthb* And I'll wait a few more days before I send them.*Idea*

BUT: until you read this, – or someone forwards it to you – you'll never know ANY of this.

So I guess this is IT. *HeartBroken*

But I had to try to amend, because I came to like you and always looked forward to your next review, or comment.*Heart*

Not to stick my nose in your business, but I also deal with my own share of mental health issues. I have surely burned bridges and absolutely destroyed friendships because of it. And I think all of us, at some point or another, have instinctively typed something out and hit "send" without thinking about how it may be received.

I'm not sure of the details in your situation, but I think it's awesome that you are self-aware enough to admit you could have handled a situation better. And I think you're brave to be taking the step in changing medication/dosages—a serious struggle and process that not many people are familiar with.

Make sure you are taking the time to focus on you, first and foremost.

Anyway, chin up, and virtual fist bump. You got this.
Of course I forgive you. You're a beautiful person. *Heart*
Being human I make mistakes. Having multiple disABILITIES, I can make more mistakes because of related issues. To add to this I many times can arelky do the minimal of whatever task it might be. I have friends who are physically challenged, mentally challenged, and spiritual challenged or have multiple challenges.

Everyone makes mistakes, needs to forgive, and needs help eventually.

One thing we should consider is the frustration factor, because when we work together to help each other relieve frustration or any other challenging issue the world is much better.

My email inbox is bulging, The DWG activities are waiting for my attention. the weather has caused issues, UTI's have plagued me, and the list goes on. So in the balance or unbalance of things I do the best I can and leave the results up to God.

As long as we do not quit, work together, and forgive mistakes, we are winners. Let's win together.
Hello, guys.*Smile*

Hope you all had / are having a great day, and Feierabend soon.*ThumbsUpGreen*

Just in time for the latter*Laugh*, here's to inform you that "ROOTS & WINGSOpen in new Window. is up-to-date again:

Guys, you know I'm not political – that only unnecessarily pisses me off*RollEyes* – and don't often display any political notion on here, but today I just can't help myself. Don't blame me!*Shock2* But I couldn't pass this goodie served on the infamous silver plate by.

And also, this is rather intended for your Orange Obermotz, to learn a vital lesson from your Northern Neighbors:

As you probably know, today the Liberals (what the Democrats once were in the US) under Mark Carney won the election in CANADA. (Today it was officially announced.)

His political opponent, Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservatives (what the US Republicans were a long, loooong time ago, if ever) called Carney the same evening and

1. CONCEDED he lost the election*Shock*

2. CONGRATULATED his political opponent for his electoral victory*Shock2* and (even if VERY reluctantly!)

3. OFFERED collaboration (or at least not too strong opposition, for the sake of the country). *Explode*


SO, dear DONALD, you take an electoral defeat.


You DON'T send a bloodthirsty mob you yourself stirred up to Capitol Hill to stop the official confirmation of the vote – where 5 people got killed by that mob, a bagatelle you conveniently "forgot" as you, as one of your first official acts, "freed" the 1.500 January 6-"hostages" from prison by decree.*Vomit*


Amen und aus!


Once again, sorry for the little rant. It had to get out, I fear.*Blush*

Thanks for the good news from the US's future fifty-first state.   *Laugh*
