Food 1 Minute

Today is National Zucchini Bread Day and so I present my favorite zucchini bread recipe. This recipe makes 2 loaves and it freezes well.

Ingredients  

3 large eggs

2 cups granulated sugar

1 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

2 cups grated zucchini about 2 small

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions 

Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Grease two 8×4-inch loaf pans or line with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs till frothy. Add sugar, oil and vanilla.  Beat till thick and lemon colored.

Stir in zucchini.

Mix flour, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda.  Add to first mixture.

Add the chopped nuts if desired.

Divide the batter evenly over the prepared pans and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool in the pans for 5 minutes, remove from the pans, and cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy!

  1. “When do the Court-Martials Begin? US Secretary of Defense: Unlawful Orders, Mandated Experimental COVID-19 vaccine”

    Robert W Malone MD, MS, Apr 25, 2025

    EXCERPT: “I never thought I would see the day come when a high-level official in the US Government would admit to the sleight of hand executed by Peter Marks and the FDA. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has now publicly acknowledged that the US Government mandated that employees, contractors, and members of the Armed Services accept an experimental vaccine product or face either losing their job or receiving a dishonorable discharge from the military.

    These military orders were illegal, in outright violation of, and were surreptitiously issued by the Pentagon. According to a Navy Captain-level JAG that I have worked with to support legal claims by Warfighter personnel resisting the mandates, and who carefully documented the chain of events (she has the receipts!), a Colonel working in the Pentagon who was about to retire was told to issue the orders, and then promptly retired.

    The law that addresses the issue of mandatory experimental vaccines in the military is rooted in the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) framework established by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Under this framework, vaccines can be authorized for emergency use during public health crises, but they are not fully approved and thus considered experimental. According to federal law, an EUA vaccine cannot be mandated by the military, as noted in a 2005 case, Doe v Rumsfeld, where Judge Emmet Sullivan ruled that under federal law, an EUA vaccine cannot be mandated.

    Additionally, the FDA and CDC guidance and regulations prohibit mandatory use of vaccines under EUA. Dr. Mandy Cohen, executive secretary of the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, has stated that under Emergency Use Authorization, “vaccines are not allowed to be mandatory”.

    Service members can request exemptions from mandatory vaccinations on health, administrative, or religious grounds. These exemptions can be temporary or permanent. However, the military can mandate vaccines that have full FDA approval, as seen with the anthrax vaccine, which has been mandated despite being described as an “experimental” vaccine in some contexts.

    It’s important to note that the military’s ability to mandate vaccines is constrained by the principle of informed consent and the rights of service members to refuse an experimental vaccine without facing disciplinary action, unless a presidential waiver is provided.

    All of this was disregarded under the Biden administration. Careers and lives were destroyed. And in an attempt to paper this over, the FDA issued a hasty “license” (market authorization) for a vaccine that was never actually marketed in the United States.

    Hegseth’s acknowledgement that these actions were illegal is a good start, but there is so much more that must be disclosed about what has all the hallmarks of a conspiracy to defraud American citizens and military service members…..”

  2. somehow I can’t find the smallest iota of pity for this monster.

    FTA

    The prisoner blames speech from the president for the assaults.

    A trans-identifying man who was convicted of strangling a baby to death has filed a lawsuit accusing President Donald Trump of inciting sexual assault against him in prison.

    Autumn Cordellionè, who was born Jonathan C. Richardson, claimed that he was raped by other male prisoners at the Westville Correctional Facility in Indiana and that his claims were ignored by guards.

    ‘We’re patriots and even if you tell on us, Trump will pardon us and probably give us a medal.’

    Cordellionè claimed in the handwritten lawsuit that he had suffered numerous assaults by other prisoners who specifically cited the president being elected as the reason they could harm Cordellionè without penalty.

    Richardson chose to transition in 2020 after 19 years in prison, but the state refused to pay for the surgery. The American Civil Liberties Union jumped on the case and won in court in 2023, forcing Indiana taxpayers to foot the bill for Richardson’s transgender surgery.Sign up for the Blaze newsletter

    Cordellionè was convicted in 2011 of strangling to death the 11-month-old daughter of his girlfriend at the time. He was sentenced to 55 years in prison.

    He said that he was assaulted after being moved from the New Castle Correctional Facility, where he was in special custody, to the male prison in Indiana.

    “Trump’s president now, and we won’t even get in trouble for f**king you trannies up,” one assailant allegedly told Cordellionè.

    “We’re patriots and even if you tell on us, Trump will pardon us and probably give us a medal,” another assailant allegedly said.

    Cordellionè is seeking $3.5 million in damages from the president. The lawsuit says that Trump’s rhetoric contributed to the violation of the prisoner’s Eighth Amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment.

    He claims that Trump’s rhetoric also fueled discrimination among the prison guards and officials.

    “I’ve seen your case on the news, and I personally don’t think us taxpayers should have to pay for your surgery,” one allegedly said. “God doesn’t approve of transgenders and gays, so what do you expect to happen when you dress like a woman and have t*** in a male facility?”

    The Daily Mail reported that a White House spokesperson released a brief statement about the lawsuit.

    “President Trump has vowed to defend biological women from gender ideology extremism and restore biological truth to the federal government,” read the statement.

    Cordellionè had also sued after a prison chaplain allegedly restricted him from wearing a hijab. He argued in that lawsuit that he was a member of the Theosophical Society of America.

    A spokesperson for ACLU praised the ruling in 2023 as a victory for civil rights.

    “Today marks a significant victory for transgender individuals in Indiana’s prisons,” said Ken Falk at the time. “Denying evidence-based medical care to incarcerated people simply because they are transgender is unconstitutional. We are pleased that the court agreed.”

    The 13-page lawsuit was filed on April 1.

  3. “When fire claimed a structure at an Amish wood business on Craig Road April 8, the community quickly banded together to offer their assistance. The following day friends, family and neighbors began a complete cleanup, after which rebuilding commenced. After eight days, a new building stood complete and ready to resume business where there had been rubble and ashes just a few days before…”

      Jenny lived in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and died 2022 being 26 years old. She was a Frankfurt treasure.”

  11. I am adding a short daily prayer to the board. I would invite each of you, if you wish, to also add one or maybe two of your own liking. I do not want to stifle anyone but please limit yourself to one or two religious postings. here’s one I found that I liked.
