At the library I found a bread cookbook printed early last century in Northern Africa.

My favorite recipe is for an Old Thyme Moroccan Roll.

BREAKING: Iowa's House has passed a bill to spend hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars each year to pay families' private school costs, a top priority of Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds.

"The private school voucher bill passed 55-45, with nine Republicans joining every Democrat to oppose the bill. It's expected to win passage in Iowa's Senate tonight.

Roughly half of Iowa counties don't have any private schools."

This is completing what Betsy #DeVos couldn't do as SoE. It's a clearly labeled plank of the #NAR
'S 7 mountain dominion theology, that is being used as a framework to install #Christofascism.

“The refusal of Kevin McCarthy to push back against George Santos is just one more sign that the Grand Old Party has no morals, stands for nothing, and will only reach its justifiable demise when voters decide they’ve really had enough. In the meantime, newly installed Congressman Santos is the GOP’s lying face.

@AlliFlowers Oh no, they *love* it. You know somebody is very serious about being in business when they cherry-pick one or two things they’ve heard from academics or in a TEDx talk and then beat them to death, usually bereft of any context.
