stupid proxy server is acting up... grrr

Which post was real and which was made from soybeans?
Then there's kumiss, which is basically fermented mare's milk. I'd go for it.
There's actually nothing I don't like the sound of. Except for mountain oysters. I'd have to be pretty hungry before I'd eat a bull's testicles, even if they are fried.
I haven't tried lutefisk...but it's just a matter of time.
I'll try anything once. Tried pickled herring...yuck-o-rama!
Taste and see. Bet you can't tell.
I don't try anything I haven't eaten before. ;~D
Been there. Tried that.
GAG!
You know I can handle just about anything like blood, vomit and the such? Can't handle loose teeth, you know that. Can't handle snot.
Pickled herring has the consistency of snot.
Steve just scarfs it down.
That Minnesota Swede!
Cookies for breakfast is the reason why I'm not a svelte little teenybopper right now ;-)
Ugh, hard ride. It seemed about to storm the whole way and the wind was right in my face so it was really hard. Plus I forgot my backpack and had to go back for it (fortunately I hadn't gone far). Now of course it's sunny and the wind's gone, but...
I've never had pickled herring.
But I'll try just about anything once. As long as it's still *food*.
Back from my ride, showered, havin' oatmeal with cinnamon and blueberries, and there's coffee brewing. Life is good.
I dunno that I'll try riding without at least having a snack first, though. Or maybe it's just riding so many days in a row without a rest day. Whatever the reason, my legs weren't working that well this morning. I still did the ride I'd been doing, plus a bit more - came almost out of town and all of a sudden was practically face to face with the foothills. Once I'm in better shape, I'm riding up into them!
But it's nice to be home with nice food. ;-)
Yeah, but we've got computers. ;-p
Did look bad there for a bit, didn't it? I got back at about eight-forty, and I was hoping you weren't about to get caught in a downpour.
That's my philosophy. Of course I don't eat a lot of things I have eaten before, too. But people just call me picky. I'm not really. I like beef.... pork... chicken.... shellfish.... turkey.... bambi...
I got sprinkled on, and the wind was dreadful. Think I may need a rest day tomorrow myself, my knees are complaining. They're rather sick of all the work they do, pushing my poor overloaded bike up hills...
Plus I'm retaining water today so the scale was unhappy :-(
Well, maybe that's our trouble... We eat stuff that tastes good.
All these skinny people are skinny because they're eating stuff that is revolting. Hard to eat too much. ;~D
That does sound good!
Joshua just came in and asked for a snack. I asked him "What do you want?" He said "Gotta bell pepper?"
So he's snacking on a bell pepper!
:-)
We're off in a bit...going to the library.
Hey! I got the triple 7s!
I'm ignoring the scale. It's always unreliable for the first week or so after I start a new type of exercise. Dunno if sore muscles hold on to more water or what it is, but it happens consistently.
Looks like more people are looking at the apartment across the hall. And someone's moving out downstairs. Big doin's!
Yeah... that's probably it...
I've been eating yummy stuff that's still ok, according to Dr. Atkins... not as strict as I should be, though. I think the margarita last night was over the line.
