Fake American Chinese Food

Part 1: Chinese Donuts

Because let's just start with dessert since we can.

 

 

This is so easy, you might think I'm making this up. I stumbled this when I saw the proprietor of a local Chinese takeout place at Kroger with a buggy full of canned biscuits. I mean full to the top, with nothing else. Hundreds of little cans of biscuits. So naturally I had to go straight home and Google the crap out of that. And that's how I learned that those little sugared "donuts" on the buffet are literally deep fried biscuits sprinkled with sugar. 

So really, this isn't even a recipe. Just get some canned biscuits, separate them cut each one in half, then deep fry it. Sprinkle with whatever sugary nonsense you want. It's deep fried biscuit dough, you're probably not going to mess it up too bad. That's pretty much it.

This Thing I Drew and How It Happened

I wasn’t even thinking about the band when I started this, and then Jameson said something about the band, and I was all “what” and he was all “huh?” and I was all “what?!” and he was all "you know" and then I was all "oh yeah…." True story.

Punk Mom Talks | THINGS I CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO UNDERSTAND

Apparently, I am an aberration. At least in terms of how my personal tastes and preferences line up with the particular demographic I occupy. I am a mother of two, I live in the suburbs (because it turns out it's really expensive or inconvenient to live in the "cool" neighborhoods when you have kids in our town), I am over 35 and I DO NOT UNDERSTAND 90% of what is marketed to me. Most of the stuff I AM interested in is not really marketed to my demographic, but that's a whole different kettle of fish guts. So just for funsies, here's a list of some things to which I just can't relate.

1. INTERNET MOMMY HUMOR. I know, I totally do. It's stressful and hard and you need to relax somehow. I get it, women like chocolate and wine and it would sometimes be nice if you're kids had a mute button and blah blah blah. Occasionally, I will snicker at one of these jokes, and once in an odd while I will really laugh, but these are usually ones sent to me by friends that share my sense of humor. Sure "Chardonnay Playdate" might sound all tongue-in-cheek: "we're bad! I mean not liquor and drugs bad, but still, ooooooh!!" The idea of a flippin' Chardonnay Playdate sounds like hell on earth to me. The last thing I want to do is get all tore up on box wine while my kids and someone else's kids draw on my walls with Gogurt.  Your child is crying for an arbitrary reason? Yeah, mine too, and it's funnier when it happens at your house and I don't get to see it.

2. HGTV. Unless you're going to make a house look like this or this, I'm not interested


3. FASHION ADVICE. Pieces every woman over 30 should own? Nah. Quick hairstyles for busy moms?  Pass. I could go on with this one all day, but the general rule for me is Does Not Apply.

4. ANYTHING RELATED TO A DIET OR EXERCISE PROGRAM. I'm not advocating sitting on the couch all day with an IV of ranch dressing hooked up to your gullet.I wish I had that kind of time. But I don't need help losing the baby weight either; I already lost it, and I didn't even try, really. And I didn't need a hot-pilates-kale-enema to do it. I'm not bragging. Really. All I essentially did was eat whatever my kids left on the plate reasonably and chase my babies around the house. Two kids under 4, that's my workout plan. And even if I hadn't lost it (which I didn't after my first) I would just, well, deal with it. Without pseudo-science and special pants.

5. PREPACKAGED SPIRITUAL GROWTH. I'm not against spiritual growth. I just don't think I'm going to find it on a 45 minute talk show or a GIF in my Facebook feed. Oprah is not my pastor.

6. TABLOID GOSSIP & CELEBRITY NEWS. I don't know who most of these people are, so why would I care what they do?

7. EROTIC SUPERNATURAL FICTION. I want to punch this genre in the face.

8. LILLY PULITZER. Lisa Frank for adults. And with that, I'll leave you with this unicorn and go whine elsewhere.
