    This election sucks ass but I just made duck confit for the first time, and made peach pie yesterday, so screw it.

        Incidentally, the duck confit was good, not superb. But I was just in Confitopia so my standards are pretty warped.

        Surprisingly MI has some pinots that are worthy of my good not great confit.

        Bet that would go well with a creamy risotto

        For all the past debates (including GOP primary disasters) I've made Mexican food, but now there's the risotto option

        I'm just glad that at the end of this long dumpster fire we've been promised taco trucks.

        Yeah yeah yeah. Don't remind me that Trump, not Hillary, promised the taco trucks. Bc I'm holding her to that promise.

        It's also the last peach pie of the season. BUT! MI grows Northern Spy apples so our apple pies are superb.

        There was no confit and only a bag of peaches at that point.

        That's fine, I'd have been just fine camping out. Might've even helped you peel peaches, just to speed things up.
