Something about the particular shape of Donald Trump's eyes has frequently reminded me of pig's eyes. Now in his #mugshot photo with his eyes so red and with his attempt to appear "defiant" he just reminds me of the ugly pig head from the Amityville Horror book.馃ぃ

I usu make these because I have the special pan with autumn shapes, but I believe there are recipes online to make a similar pumpkin cake with cream cheese filling in a Bundt pan or pumpkin cake-like bars with cream cheese frosting.

Recently divided a prickly pear cactus from garden outside (it survives Winters in Wisconsin!) & planted one of the divisions in a pot indoors. That thing grew twice as tall as it had been, just since May. Would have been hilarious to have watched it grow in the pot you have! 馃槃

A rotating poker chip caddy with red, white, and blue chips and two decks of cards. It was used for playing schafkopf (sheepshead) rather than poker, though.

I first became aware of the name Dorcas when I saw a rerun of the 1954 musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers in which one of the brides was named as such. Character was played by Julie Newmar & not a bit dorky. Ironically, it seemed to me, as name reminded me, too, of "dork!"
One of my favorites from about 15 years ago were similar to these, except mine were canvas, without the zipper, racing stripe, and logo. I had a white pair and a pink pair (with white soles) and I loved them. Mine were from Victoria's Secret.
