Dirk would not eat red meat or cheese. He leaves chunks of cheese on his plate after a pizza dinner and its turkey bacon for breakfast. Cream cheese makes his ass hairs stand up so he doesnt eat bagels. His only exception for red meat is special occasions like wagyu and it has to be fully cooked or else he’ll hear it mooing in his stomach at night

My Irish Girl
Anon asked for a fic where Mel and r celebrate St. Paddy's! Not edited in the slightest because I wanted to make sure I got it out before the day is over!
WC: ~2.3k
Tumblr media
Melissa and you have been together for just about a year, and coming up was your holiday: St. Patrick’s day. As an Irish woman, you were delighted to tell her about all of the different traditions that you loved to do back in your homeland before moving here. You were more than excited to partake in some of the American traditions as well. 
“So, why do we wear green for St. Paddy’s?” your girlfriend asks you as the two of you roam around Walmart, chuckling at the different apparel that was set out for the upcoming holiday.
“Wearing green makes you invisible to the leprechauns… the mischievous things- going around pinching those who aren’t wearing green,” you chuckle.
She hums. “Good thing I look good in green then.”
“Damn right you do,” you grin as you kiss her cheek.
You continue to peruse the aisles, throwing various things that you need for your living space together, as well as a few little trinkets for the holiday. It’s the usual things that you throw in- four-leafed clover glasses, a few festive shot glasses, the ingredients to make irish potatoes and the dinner that the two of you will be having on the day of corned beef and cabbage.
You’re heading for the checkout with the cart when you realize Melissa isn’t following you anymore. No, she’s stopped in front of the shirts that are there for the Irish day.
“Look!” she grins. The redhead is holding up one of those shirts that says, ‘Kiss me, I’m Irish!’ on it in a font that looks quite similar to the Lucky Charms cereal font. 
“I think people know I’m Irish just by looking at me,” you roll your eyes playfully as you gesture to your clearly natural ginger hair and freckles. “And if they can’t tell by looking at my complexion, when I talk, they definitely know.”
Your girlfriend shrugs. “I’m buying it anyway.” She throws it in the cart before taking it from you and steering it towards the checkout area.
She pays for it, of course she does (always spoiling you), and the two of you head home to make some of the treats you want to make for your students.
You’re in the middle of mixing together the cream cheese and butter for the Irish potatoes when your mother calls you.
Immediately, you switch into your native tongue as you pick up the phone, balancing it between your ear and your shoulder as you continue to beat together the ingredients.
Your girlfriend looks over to you, still in awe at the fact that you are bilingual. The conversation is short, mostly just explaining to your mom that you’re doing just fine out in Philly, that yes you are still going to church and are celebrating St. Paddy’s day. You also let her know that Melissa says hello, and that the two of you are quite looking forward to coming out to visit during your Summer vacation.
“Hi, Esther,” your girlfriend pipes up as she settles behind you and wraps her arms around your waist, setting her chin on your free shoulder.
Your mother switches to English, greeting Melissa kindly. “Hello, dear. Are you taking care of my daughter?”
“Mam,” you groan. “I already told you that we are doing just fine over here.”
“You know I have to check,” you can practically hear your mother’s smirk.
“I’m taking care of her just fine,” Melissa promises. “We’re in the middle of making Irish potatoes for the kids at school as we speak.”
“Oh, how lovely. I suppose I’ll let you go, but give me a holler on St. Patrick’s day- preferably before you decide to get intoxicated with that blasted green alcohol,” your mother tells you.
“Will do, Mam,” you roll your eyes. “I love you, and I’ll talk to you soon.”
“Bye, Esther,” Melissa singsongs.
“Chat later,” your mother says. “Love to you both.”
The two of you finish making the sweets for your students before settling on the couch.
“So tell me more about your own traditions,” your girlfriend requests as you take a sip from your wine glass.
You do. Your eyes light up as you tell her what your family used to do, and how you’re quite thrilled to be able to share the traditions with her- even if some of them are silly.
“What do you usually do?” you ask her.
“Get piss drunk,” the faux redhead grins. “Go down to all the skanky dive bars and drink some green beer to pregame the parade.”
“And what do you do with the kids?” you roll your eyes. “I kind of assumed that was what you did.”
“Oh,” she laughs. “Sometimes we make leprechaun traps, I’ll put a few gold coins around the classroom, and whoever finds them gets a prize. They usually all get a baggie of Lucky Charms… and sometimes I dye the toilet water green in the morning and tell the kids that I guess we were struck.”
“That’s cute,” you say as you snuggle into her. “I’m sure they love it.”
“They have for the last… however many years I’ve been teaching at this point,” she sighs. “But I’m sure this year, they’ll all be more excited when you bring in the potatoes and when you teach them the basics of Irish dance.”
“Oh, god,” you groan. “Don’t remind me that Ava practically blackmailed me into doing that.”
“I think it’ll be good. The kids like interactive stuff… you see how they still talk about Tariq and his short lived career with F.A.D.E.”
“I guess,” you roll your eyes.
Your girlfriend is right. The kids are delighted to learn from you and learn about you and your country. You don’t think you’ve ever seen their eyes light up the way they did when they each got a few of the potatoes you and Melissa made last night.
You teach them a few steps, and they love it.
“This is so cool, Ms. Y/N,” one of your sweet students tells you.
St. Patrick’s Day at school comes to an end, and the two of you go out to happy hour with your crew to celebrate a successful school wide holiday. 
The Philly streets are already in the spirit, with green painting the town. Most are wearing their Eagles gear to get into the green spirit, and a chorus of ‘Go birds!’ can be heard at any given time as you walk through the streets with your girlfriend and work friends.
You find your usual little pub and order a round. The beers are already dyed green.
“So, what are your plans for this holiday?” Janine asks you.
You wrap an arm around Melissa as you speak, “Get hammered? Make dinner drunk, and then show up to church on Sunday hungover as hell?”
“Sounds about right,” Gregory rolls his eyes. 
Saturday morning rolls around, and you and Melissa get ready to head out for the day. You bought those little shamrock tattoos and place one on each of your cheeks before grinning.
“My Irish girl,” Melissa grins as she kisses you softly.
“We should probably call my mom now before we go out,” you chuckle. “We can do it while we get ready.”
You dial her, greeting her in your native language before switching back to English. You and the redhead chat with her for a few minutes, also getting to say hello to your father, before she lets you go to ‘participate in juvenile activities’.
Melissa has all of her eagles gear on, complete with the jersey that she has signed by Jalen Hurts, and you have on the ridiculous shirt that the redhead threw into the cart at Walmart.
You head down to the pub the two of you frequent, and while it’s busy as hell, even for 10:30 in the morning, you’re able to get seated due to the staff knowing you.
Melissa looks away from you to order you a Guinness and her a Yuengling before spinning back around to look at you. She pecks your lips quickly.
While it’s not unwelcome, you do raise a brow. She’s not usually so big on PDA.
“Your shirt,” she chuckles.
Your bartender hands her the drinks and then she turns back around and kisses you again.
“I think I see how today is going to play out,” you chuckle. The two of you clink glasses and chug your first beers. 
By the time the parade starts at noon, it’s safe to say that both you and your girlfriend are intoxicated. She’s yelling ‘Go birds!’ at anyone she sees who is also clad in Eagles gear, and there are a lot of people wearing the football team apparel. She holds your hand tightly as you roam the streets around city hall trying to find the best spot you can to watch the parade.
The two of you are delighted to watch as the parade goes on around you. You spend the next hour and a half smiling and laughing so hard your faces are red. Each time she turns away from you and turns back to you, she kisses you- and the more intoxicated she is, the harder she kisses you. There’s something in the back of your mind that tells you at some point today, you’ll end up in bed.
There’s only one hiccup during your outing. Melissa has let go of your hand and is doing her best to sound as sober as possible when one of her old students comes up and gives her a hug. She’s engaged in conversation with the child for a bit, and when she turns around, there is a man who is very clearly trying to hit on you. His lips are puckered, and he’s telling you that he’s just trying to follow the directions on your shirt.
“Hey, asshole, she’s very much spoken for,” Melissa shoves him away from you.
The man stumbles slightly. “Her shirt says to kiss her.”
“I’m the only one who gets to kiss her,” your girlfriend says as she pushes him again. “If you wanna try again… well, fuck around and find out.”
He backs away with his hands raised in surrender, and before he can turn around to run, Melissa’s lips are on your own. She kisses you deeply, throwing up her middle finger in the direction of the guy as she dips you just slightly.
When she pulls away, your cheeks are flushed, and her eyes are filled with lust.
“C’mon. Let’s get out of here.”
You follow her quickly as you head back in the direction of your apartment.
“Fucking asshole thinks he can get my girl,” the second grade teacher grumbles. “No way in hell.”
“Hun, it’s fine. I could’ve handled it myself,” you tell her as you squeeze her hand gently. “But it’s nice to know that you would fight a man in my honor.”
“Like hell,” she tells you. “Ain’t no way anyone else is gettin’ my girl.”
As soon as you’re inside your apartment, she has you pinned up against the door. Once again, her lips are on yours aggressively, and her hands quickly roam to other parts of your body. She squeezes gently, and you have to bite back a moan when she bites down on your neck. She grabs you by the thighs and lifts you up, taking you back into your bedroom.
By the time the two of you are finished, you’re breathing heavily. That was… wow.
“C’mon, baby,” she whispers as she holds you close. “We gotta start making dinner.”
“I’m gonna need some time to gain feeling in my legs,” you sigh out.
She chuckles as she kisses you softly- much more softly than she was earlier. “That’s fine. I’ll get it started.”
When you finally catch your breath again and the shaking in your legs subside, you make your way out of the bedroom. You still have your ‘Kiss me, I’m Irish’ shirt on, but you have her denim shirt on overtop of it and a pair of her shorts.
“Damn, baby,” she licks her lips. “You come out looking like that and expect me to be able to focus on dinner?”
You roll your eyes and head back into the bedroom before returning wearing a pair of sweatpants. She pouts, but that quickly goes away when you wrap your arms around her waist and kiss her cheek.
“What all have you done?”
“Gotten a beer,” she says cheekily as she cranes her neck to kiss you.
You roll your eyes. “I was in the bedroom for like forty minutes.”
“Okay,” she sighs before confessing, “So I had two beers while I looked at the pictures I took of you. Sue me for getting distracted by my gorgeous girlfriend.”
“Get the cabbage,” you swat her away from you. “And grab me a beer, please?”
“Yes, ma’am,” she grins as she kisses you again.
Dinner is delightful, and the two of you drink a few more beers before heading out again to meet up with the Abbott crew, aside form Barbara and Gerald. You end up getting absolutely hammered, chugging green beer after green beer with your girlfriend.
By some grace of God, the two of you get home without Melissa getting into a bar fight for all of the creepy men trying to hit on you.
That outing ends much like the first outing earlier in the day. But after, she holds you close and the two of you drift to sleep.
The next morning is brutal, both of you hungover as hell and promising you’ll never drink again (until the next time you decide to drink). You both get ready for church, moaning and groaning the entire time as you drink pedialyte and try to rehydrate yourselves.
While the hangover is killer, this Saint Patrick’s Day is one that will go down in the books.

Food is one of the most universally beloved things on planet Earth. Aligning a presidential campaign with it is smart for all the obvious reasons, but for the Harris-Walz ticket, it’s also a signal. The rhetorical challenge of progressivism is that it is by nature abstract: It imagines a world that does not yet exist, rather than advocating to return to some previous version of the one we know. [...] In foregrounding food, Harris and Walz are making theirs the candidacy of terrestrial pleasure and straightforward abundance.
The governor of Minnesota and possible future vice president’s hotdish recipe is, uh, a lot. It involves, among other things, whole milk, half-and-half, two types of meat, three cups of cheese (specifically Kraft), nearly a stick of butter, and a full package of Tater Tots. It is gluttonous, deeply midwestern, and, I am sure, delicious. Indeed, Walz won the Minnesota Congressional Delegation’s hotdish cook-off in 2013, 2014, and 2016.
Tim Walz loves food. He loves corn dogs, and the all-you-can-drink milk booth at the Minnesota state fair, and—I’m sorry to have to be the one to tell you this—dunking cinnamon rolls in chili. He gets excited about soda. He posts pictures of his sandwiches.  He loves to eat so much that people on X are already writing short-form fan fiction about it. Throughout his political career, but especially recently, he has gone out of his way to talk about food, the fattier and folksier the better. Last week, in a discussion with CNN’s Jake Tapper that was ostensibly about Joe Biden’s mental fitness, Walz recounted receiving a call from the president while eating the Minnesota delicacy Juicy Lucy, a hamburger stuffed with cheese. The next day, he posted on X about a different award-winning hotdish recipe of his, this one involving two separate kinds of canned soup.
We are witnessing what might be the most food-centric presidential campaign in American history. Kamala Harris is, by all accounts, an exceptional and enthusiastic home cook, and has made cooking part of her political brand—surely an intentional calculation, given the negative connotations that might arise when the potential first woman president openly embraces domesticity. In 2019, she offered an off-the-cuff lesson in turkey brining while getting mic’d up to go on television: “Just lather that baby up,” she said, eyes bright. The next year, she started an amateur cooking show; on it, she cracks an egg with one hand and bonds with Mindy Kaling over the fact that their parents both stored spices in old Taster’s Choice jars. She laughs a lot in the kitchen.
Unlike her running mate, Harris seems unlikely to throw four kinds of dairy in the oven for dinner—she’s a Californian, and she cooks like one: swordfish with toasted cardamom for her pescatarian stepdaughter, herb-flecked Mediterranean meatballs on an Instagram Live with the celebrity chef Tom Colicchio. But she’s not immune to the humble charms of ice cream, gumbo, Popeye’s chicken, red-velvet cupcakes, or bacon, which she describes as a “spice” in her household. She comes off as sincere in her love of food but discerning in her tastes. When a 10-year-old recently asked her at an event what her favorite taco filling was, she answered with the kind of absorbed expression that she might otherwise display when explaining foreign policy on the debate stage: carnitas with cilantro and lime, no raw onions.
Invoking food on the campaign trail is a cliché for a reason: Eating is an easy and extremely literal way to prove that you are a human being. But the Democratic Party has not always been great at it. In 2003, John Kerry visited the Philadelphia cheesesteak institution Pat’s and asked for a sandwich not with the traditional Whiz, American, or Provolone, but with Swiss. If voters needed proof that he was something other than the eggheady elitist they thought he was, this wasn’t it: In Philly, Swiss is “an alternative lifestyle,” The Philadelphia Inquirer’s food critic, Craig LaBan, said at the time. One does not get the sense that Walz or Harris would stride into Pat’s and ask for Swiss—not because they’re self-consciously avoiding a gaffe, but because they have deep respect for America’s foodways and are interested in enjoying food however it is meant to be enjoyed.
Their approach makes a marked departure both from the Obama era—what with its well-meaning but not entirely fun focus on childhood obesity, and its notorious seven almonds—and from the current leaders of the Republican Party. Donald Trump doesn’t really talk about liking eating; he does, famously, consume a lot of fast food, but that is reportedly because he’s afraid of being poisoned, not because fast food tastes amazing. His most well-known food tweet—“Happy #CincoDeMayo! The best taco bowls are made in Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics!”—reads like an obligatory plug rather than an earnest celebration of the way the taco bowl itself looks, smells, and tastes: all business, no pleasure. Meanwhile, Trump’s running mate, J. D. Vance, says he loves Diet Mountain Dew, but he seems mostly to be mad about it. To the degree that he has gotten specific about why he likes the beverage, the praise is purely functional: “high caffeine, low calorie.” The primary message here is that food is the site not of delight and togetherness but of anxiety and alienation, or utilitarianism at best. It’s all a little, well, weird.
Food is one of the most universally beloved things on planet Earth. Aligning a presidential campaign with it is smart for all the obvious reasons, but for the Harris-Walz ticket, it’s also a signal. The rhetorical challenge of progressivism is that it is by nature abstract: It imagines a world that does not yet exist, rather than advocating to return to some previous version of the one we know. I find it telling that Walz keeps using the word joy when he talks about the campaign and about his running mate. It’s an uncomplicated message, one that’s even more concrete than Barack Obama’s hope: Hope is the future, but joy is the present. It’s cold milk on a hot day; a perfectly cracked egg; a steaming casserole dish full of God knows what, enjoyed at a crowded table. In foregrounding food, Harris and Walz are making theirs the candidacy of terrestrial pleasure and straightforward abundance. It’s simple, really. —Ellen Cushing

Today the dogs each got an ice cream cup. It's hot outside! When they were done eating I am certain there wasn't a single molecule of ice cream in, on or around the plastic containers.
We have an ash tree in our front yard that has to be cut down. It's diseased and dying. I don't mind playing with my chainsaw when some small to medium sized limbs fall. But one of these days it will take out the garage.
Our neighbors had the same problem. Fortunately for them their tree was on the city's right-of-way so the city cut it down at no extra cost to the homeowners.
Our tree is several feet behind the right-of-way, so we are on the hook for removal. I've received one estimate so far. It will cost a pretty penny but not as much as it was to have an even larger tree removed from the back yard a few years ago.
Last night my brother Jim and his girlfriend Nicole met Sheila and me at the brewery. Our favorite food truck (Philly cheese steak sandwiches) was there. The sandwiches are $15, tax included. That's a decent price from a food truck. Even better, the sandwiches are so big Sheila and I split one and still get full. So really, it was $7.50 for an excellent sandwich.
After we ate we showed Jim and Nicole our new game. It's called Uff Da or Carbles (Cards & Marbles). Someone else at the brewery had introduced us to the game. Sheila later bought a very nicely finished, hand-made solid walnut board off Etsy. $$$
We played the game for a while. Sheila sent the Etsy link to Nicole who looked at her phone and remarked, "Oh look, it was only $10 extra to get your last name engraved on the board."
I gave Sheila a big "Whaaaaat?"
Nicole quickly lied to my face. "Oh Bob, but it's FREE on the first game you order from that guy."
Sheila said, "Sure, right. That's not even the first game I've purchased from him."

Ice cream (especially if it’s melty enough to drink from the carton
Pudding (made with heavy cream or whipped cream)
Cupcakes/cakes of any kind
Cheesecake
Donuts/fried dough/funnel cakes/churros
Anything cream-filled basically
Pasta (esp creamy/cheesy types)
Fast food of all types, but especially burgers
Philly cheesesteaks/steak bombs/meatball subs
Chilli cheese fries
Loaded nachos
Burritos stuffed with meat and cheese and sour cream and guac
Hearty stews/chilli/creamy soups
Giant deli sandwiches

Extra greasy Chinese food
Mashed potatoes/potato salad/pasta salad

Stuffing (of the thanksgiving kind) with gravy
Actually just drink the gravy
Pizza (but like…wild out on it)
Beer/hard cider/sparkling alcoholic drinks
….I’ll probably add to this list, but you should probably eat one or more of these today.
Did I mention I’m a great cook?

as someone who lives in the small town white trash midwest, i feel like a forgotten trope of teenage boys is how often they frequent the spot in town called something along the lines of ‘Freddy’s’ or ‘AJ’s’ that serves hot dogs, gyros, burgers and all that other nonsense.
here’s my HC for what the boys order at least once a week at their local greasy spot.
Eddie
Bacon cheeseburger with no lettuce, he likes his hands to be greasy afterwards
Large fries, but he only ever finishes half no matter how many times the guys tell him he should just get the small
He usually drinks RC but if he wants to mix things up a little he’ll get a chocolate milkshake
If he knows he’s going home afterwards he’ll make sure to grab a Chicago style hot dog for Wayne
Gareth
Gareth is the type of guy who usually gets the sides instead of a meal
Onion rings with ranch and he always asks for an extra side of it because one thing of ranch definitely isn’t enough for him
Mozzarella sticks with no marinara, he’s a firm believer that fried cheese doesn’t need anything else to make it better since it’s already delicious
Chicken strips (with ranch of course)
He likes to typically wash it all down with a Dr pepper, but in the springtime he’ll get a vanilla shake and mix it with the orange fanta
Jeff
He likes to stick with the classics, two hot dogs with ketchup, mustard, and relish
He also will never say no to cheese fries, but on occasion he’ll go a little crazy and get the bacon cheese fries
He’s got a big sweet tooth so he never likes to leave without something like a cookie or some ice cream
And when he dips his cheese fries into his ice cream the guys get pretty grossed out by it but dipping cheese fries into chocolate ice cream is a hill he’s willing to die on
Grant
He’s a fan of spicy things so he’ll get a Philly steak sandwich and a few sides of hot giardiniera to go with it
And of course he’s getting the jalapeño poppers to go with it
He used to steal fries from Eddie but eventually he just started getting his own, it’s easier than hearing Eddie complain about him taking ‘all’ the fries when he only took about 10 max
He always gets a Sprite but with no ice, it comes out of the machine cold, if it warms up he just refills it
