Damon Imani is my guest tomorrow. He produces satirical political videos that are often fact-checked as real because they're so dead-pan. He sent me this bio: "Damon was born in Kermanshah, Iran and relocated to Denmark in 2008. Damon's videos have been featured in major media outlets such as USA Today, InfoWars, The Associated Press, BPR Politics And Business, and many more. Since Youtube suspended Damon's channel in October 2020 after he posted a parody of Hunter Biden's laptop, there has been controversy surrounding his realistic-looking parodies, all of which include parody-notice on social media. Since then, many of his videos have been fact-checked by mainstream news outlets and platforms like Instagram and Twitter." ANY QUESTIONS?

I hate to admit this but we just took down our Christmas tree a few days ago, weeks after our neighbors had decorations up for Valentine’s Day. I would blame it on the farm but we have always been late getting rid of our tree. I think our record is early March. At least this year we have a free tree removal service!
For weeks the feed store has had a sign out saying “chicks coming soon!” Today we drove by it and I did a double take. “Chicks are here!” So the kids and I made a dramatic u-turn with plans to just “see” the chicks. And we did see them. In fact, we still see them because they came home with us! 🤣Whoops. We got 4 Easter eggers and 2 Olive eggers. Lynn if you’re reading this, the little buggers begged to come home with us - how could we say no?!
The cold weather here in Florida annihilated our tomato plants before the tomatoes could ripen. We were overrun with green tomatoes, so we tried making fried green tomatoes for the first time. Honestly I had never fried anything before this! We did not really follow a recipe other than making sure we had the three staple items. You have one bowl of flour and corn meal mixed, a bowl of eggs and milk mixed together, and a bowl of breadcrumbs. When we try it again, I will add some kind of seasoning to the flour and cornmeal mix, maybe garlic and salt. First dip the tomato slice into the cornmeal/flour, then the egg/milk, then breadcrumbs. Then you just put oil in your pan, we used olive oil, and fry them up! Only takes a couple minutes. It was super easy and the kids loved it. I have heard that there are some good dipping sauces out there. We are simple people so we just used ketchup and mustard. I highly recommend trying this - it’s impossible to fail!
Here's a video that explains why we should try to source eggs from producers like Alison and other responsible farmers whenever possible.
