W-W-W-WTF

Phoebe's letter for the week is W.  We spent a lot of time today going over w-w-w-words that start with W.  W-w-w-water, w-w-w-wheel, w-w-w-wow.  It sounded like we all had a stuttering problem but then I almost added the w-w-w what the fuck phrase to her W repertoire tonight after viewing the video attached to this story about yet another Schenectady fire.   Oh it starts off innocent enough, just some shots of the fire department spraying a 3 alarm fire that destroyed two houses but at about 30 seconds in it cuts to a young woman and her quote threw me into the w-w-w-what??? thought. "I don't want to be rude and say this, but there are a lot of like crack heads on this street..." Ok.  Yay for Schenectady.  I just hope the fire department actually does a body count this time around and makes sure that there is no one that they forgot about.


dinner tonight:
baked kielbasa with sausage
garden salad
biscuits

And I discovered perhaps the most awful salad dressing ever.  I love green goddess salad dressing and when I couldn't find it this time while I was shopping I got a bottle of just goddess dressing instead figuring that it couldn't be that much different.  I was wrong.  It had a tahini base, a flavor that I am not crazy about but usually can deal with, and was paired with a strong vinegar.  Ugh, I spit out on my plate (much to the amusement of my girls) and ended up dumping the whole salad because it was so awful.  I never throw out anything that is not empy or rotten, but I immediately tossed the whole jar in the garbage.  I must find a good green goddess recipe to make for myself so that I never have to taste what was in that other bottle again!
