Got a coverage

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 8h

Just one but one is better than none. It all adds up. I just looked at my second pay stub and after taxes it was $642. That’s not bad for doing what I would normally be doing anyway—sitting here or at the apartment. Might as well...

Working on the cinnamon rolls

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 23h

I've made them many times before. They aren't difficult but you do have to prep them the day before you want them. I've got the frosting and filling done as well as the chopped pecans toasted. The dough is mixed and now is...

Trump is now calling for the execution of Democrat members of Congress

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 20 Nov

That's totally normal and acceptable, right? Well to the MAGA morons it is. A group of Democrats (senators and representatives) filmed an ad urging members of the military to disregard illegal orders. ILLEGAL....

Hello everyone. I hope your day is going well. It is 47 degrees F and cloudy here at the Jersey Shore. Yuck. It was an easy day at work. I showed a video and then the students played UNO, Jenga, Shut the Box, and Apples to...

This is funny yet absurd

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 20 Nov

I am currently covering a class during my lunch period. I rushed up here. . . to find another teacher here. This is a math class that has an in-class support teacher (special ed). There are 2 teachers in here normally. There was...

The DOJ case against James Comey is likely toast

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 19 Nov

Of course it never should have been brought in the first place. Even DOJ prosecutors themselves wrote a memo saying that there was no case. People quit/were fired and Trump installed Lindsey Halligan as interim US Attorney to...

What's for dinner? November 19

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 19 Nov

What's going on the dinner table tonight? I want to know! I'm not super hungry but I know I need to eat something. I'm going to make an old standby--penne al vodka. It is based on a recipe from the Carmine's cookbook but I've...

Whoa extra virgin olive oil prices are NUTS

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 19 Nov

I always have extra virgin olive oil on hand. I use it not only for salad dressings but also for sauteing vegetables, in pasta sauce, in marinades, etc. I do keep other oils (vegetable, grapeseed, coconut) here too but most of the...

Busy upcoming days for the baking club

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 18 Nov

Oh this thing has gotten to be more stress than I am up for these days. The members of the club agreed that they wanted to continue the one time a month bake sales before school as fundraisers. We had our first one last month and...

The Oval Office gets tackier with each passing day

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 18 Nov

It was gross but expected when Trump returned to the Oval Office that he would make gaudy alterations to it. He started adding gold accents little by little but now it looks like gold (no it isn't real) has been puked all over the...

Trump said “quiet piggy” to a female reporter

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 18 Nov

He truly is a vile human being. There is absolutely no bottom with him. None. He was on Air Force One last night and was being questioned by reporters. Of course he was asked about the Epstein files and of course he tried to...

No Trump doesn't want the Epstein Files released

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125331) • United States 17 Nov

He has been fighting it tooth and nail for like a year now. He was BFFs with Epstein for years. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson shut down the House for weeks upon weeks to prevent their release because there was a lot of GOP...
