LOL! No, the cage was outside, but one day my Dad let me and my brother bring one of them in the house for a little bit, and my brother and I let him wander around the room a bit without watching as closely as we should have, so first he went behind the curtain and chewed that without us realizing it, then he started on the cord for our new color TV. That was the last time we were allowed to bring them in the house :)
Night Alkhin! Here's to that journey that never ends. I like it!
Roads go ever on and on. . . :)
Well, good night to all and sundry. Met my word count, so that's all my weekend goals taken care of.
THAT is the most important part! And it's what makes it so impressive. Even when you post it here, all of us know how much from the heart it is. That's what made it so spectacular! :-)
Far as skiing goes. It's what my family did from April to October when I was a kid/teenager. Somehow, I don't even remember it causing pain or sore muscles when I was learning! Certainly I never remember popping up on the skis and then thinking my muscles were screaming obscenities at me!!!
And for the record... the only reason I slalomed that day... was like so many other things in my adult life... I just had to do it to show the others that I *COULD* .... no matter how much I hurt! I am not thinking that way of life is sane. But, I've been stuck in that rut for years. Am trying to come up with a new philosophy. :-)
Ours was the only one in evidence in the neighborhood. ;-(
Good night, Jen.
Have a good night! Will send you some comments on the new chapter later tonight or tomorrow.
I read that about the satay in a Thai cookbook we have.
I forgot, I make a very good Thai ginger fish, and also a good spicy one, fried in oil in the cast iron skillet or my steel wok, with plenty of really hot hot sauce on the side.
I have to wear gloves when making the hot sauce, else the scotch bonnets burn my fingers.
That Thai fish sounds really good. I've never had Thai fish, apart from the seafood they somtimes put in Tom Yum Gai. I like what they do with ginger, as well as hot spices. What kind of fish do you put that on?
You catch it yourself, too? Quite the culinary skills you have there :) I bet that fish must taste very fresh!
Getting ready to log off soon, so have a good night!
Hitting the rack too.
Good night, All.
ps.
I'm far from a skilled cook, or even a good one. But I do like to have fun in the kitchen sometimes.
Sad that gnad and Corin aren't here for this! :-)
Me too.... It's like home... but strangely exotic.
heh... no comment!
Howdy! :-)
I just meant actually ~being~ in the kitchen!
Gotta hit the couch - ecurbh beckons... ;~D
Good night!
Yeah, I think Corin and Gnad are gonna read over those comments and have something to say about them too! :-)
Not that any of that is bad of course! :-D
