LOL!! One of my 'guilty pleasures' movies!! It is SO STOOPID, but I can't NOT watch it!!
Whoa!! Nice digs!!
OK, I'm talking to myself! See y'all later today!
Good Morning!
They turned out pretty good, but not quite as chewy as I'd have liked. I'm not sure if that means more egg, or maybe some extra gluten, or if I'm just not going to get that texture without using white flour. They're definitely edible, in any case! And I was able to make them a more manageable size...the ones at the bagel place are truly hugh.
Good morning! Happy Monday, if that isn't an oxymoron!
How ya feelin', Corin?
Got pork and beans simmering in the crockpot today. Hope they turn out good! The sauce tasted good, in any case.
You reminded me that I need to do some chicken stock- thank you!
I'm off to do some shoppin'. Fall promotion time at the Clinique counter!
Yeah, that's what I'm hopin'. It'd be good practice for me, and she'd love it no matter what.
Thought of a bit more for it during this morning's walk, so I'm ready to get started writing tonight. As usual, I have a beginning and end and no middle...so I should prolly do some outlining first!
How do you make your chicken stock?
I should learn to do stuff like that...
I don't have my recipe proportions in front of me. But you soak the carcass in cold water with a bit of vinegar for an hour. The vinegar breaks down the bone and pulls the calcium into the broth. Add veggies and bring to a boil. Skim off frothy stuff. Drop the heat and simmer all day. Strain and use for zzzzoup, rice, and other stuff.
Hm...so that's something I could probably do in the crockpot, too.
It'd be nice to have on hand for winter cooking! And chicken is cheap...
nnnnggggg.... coffee.....
nnnnnggggggggg.... rainin'.....
nnnngggg... bbl...
Heh...sounds exactly like what I got goin' on here.
I'm beginning to wake up, but it takes copious quantities of coffee...
It's pouring here too...we needed it.
I'm tempted to blow off co-op today...I hate getting out in this kind of weather...and it's a long drive.
I am temped to do that with work but I don't have any excused as good as that... drat.
*gasp*
I'm shocked! SHOCKED, I tell you! Do you have ANY idea what you've caused??
Heh...so far I've figgered out three or four cliches to use...a princess in a tower, goblins, invisible servants...I'm well on my way! But Teresa will like it, and that's what matters.
Mornin'. Just talked with thenurse at the doctor's office. She's gonna talk with thedoctor and they'll either call in a prescription or have me come in this afternoon.
Meanwhile, since it's my day off...
- Nana and the Social Worker come at 10:30. I have to go clean out Nana's room since all the extra stuff from the bathroom (cleaning supplies, cosmetics, bath toys, etc. are currently in her room)
- Luke doesn't have preschool today, which is good because ~he~ is coughing...
- Jr. is home sick. But, of course, ~he~ hasn't been taking his allergy medicine.
- Contractor comes back at 1:00 to replace the subflooring.
- And I gotta haul a load of crap (debris from the bathroom) to the land fill.
I'll be in and out of here today...
Well I guess I will drag myself to work. Later everyone. oh and good morning or happymonday or somesuch.
