I'm Sorry, What?

Admittedly it has been a while since I posted on the blog.  I have managed to keep up with my cooking blog, but getting stuff down over here proved to more than I could handle.  I have hopes that as schedule lightens up this summer and I spend more "quality time" with the children I will have more fodder for the blog. 

Here is just a sample of what you have been missing because I have been lazy.

me: I cannot believe that women in this country have only be able to vote since 1920 and even then we were often treated as chattel. 

him: I know, and this was in my great-grandmother's time.

me:  I know.  My grandmother got married and started the long arduous task to birthing NINE children, but she could not vote.  And she never learned to drive, because my grandfather did not think women should drive.  He did not even want his daughters to learn, but luckily their brothers all thought that was bunk and taught them anyway.  Hell, even you think women are physically inferior. 

him: Well, they are. 

me: (starts to rear up and get pissed).  We may not have upper body strength, but we more than make up for that with lower body strength and a high threshold for pain. It is not inferior, just different. 

him: Okay, different.  My point is just that I man could easily hurt or kill a woman, but a woman could not so easily hurt or kill a man.  If I attacked you right now, I could do some serious damage to you, but if you attacked me you could not kill me. 

me:  Oh really.  That's sounds like a challenge to me. 

him: What?
