Mamdani is going to win the mayoral race by a plurality in New York because the Republican voters there won't unite behind one candidate for the Replublican ticket. They're too divided. So, what comes next will be Mamdani's fight to abolish private property and make all housing government owned.

I never worked overtime, even when the boss tried to mandate it.

Now, it's finished. Typical party fare with the macaroni salad, cole slaw, the grilled pork rolls, etc.

My Dad was a huge fan of crock pot cooking. Granted, you can come out with some very good chili and stews with one, but unless you're feeding four people or more, it creates an overstock of food. Like, how many times in a week could I eat from the same pot of stew?
