Yes, but it doesn’t deserve a fancy name ;-).

He was not in the mood for leftovers, or as my brother and I referred to them, remains.

Be glad he didn't have the urge for a nice kippered herring. :)

I’ll eat the leftovers for breakfast, or persuade Pat to eat them.

Some people can reach past perishable leftovers and open something that was going to last until May, thank you very much, until you freepin opened it ... but I am not one.

They are not left overs any more. Haven't we learned anything from used car dealers. It is previous cooked food.

Good point. Or “previously eaten food,” but that sounds wrong ...

For this species, yes.

I kind of like ham and cheese tortillas to be a little crunchy, personally. But I turn it on high for only a few moments to darken the tortillas. I don’t keep it like that all the time.
It came with those. Special limited edition or whatever. $21.
Still reading the John Adams book. I stayed up till 2 in the morning with it last night. Won’t be doing that today. I have to get up early.
Then again, one never knows.

A quesedilla is just a Mexican “grilled” cheese sandwich.
I learned how to make flour tortillas when I was 15.

It helped me to survive during the Cuban Missile Crisis. My husband said he had to go back to the ship Saturday morning, even though he had a “72” (the weekend off, from Friday afternoon to Monday morning) and he was gone for three weeks.

We didn’t have a bank account, and he had all the money. So I lived on tortillas the last week he was gone.

Somehow, kippered herring for breakfast just sounds WRONG!

I asked Shannon what she thought, and she sat down in the middle of the dinner table and said, “Nyik nyik eeyar.” I think that was affirmative, on the subject of eating fish, and by the way, where is it?

No rest for the wicked ... trip to the Post Orifice to mail Anoreth’s musical items, and then to the library, where I have reserve books in. I should call Asuncion to talk about when we can practice, but my Spanish-speaking synapses haven’t started to fire yet. I should have gone to bed much earlier.

I was up late last night, too, but for other reasons. I didn’t realize what they were until this morning.

My trip to the doctor yesterday wasn’t much fun, though he DID take the forms to be filled out for the student loan people. He said it will take about a week for it to be completed, so I can expect it next week some time.

While I was picking up some meds at Walmart, I went to look at the bettas, and other items to go into the aquarium I can’t afford yet, (again.) I saw this little shark-looking fish about 3” long eating another fish. I don’t think I want that in my tank.

I also saw some little crabs (1”) that I considered along with the snail and the glass cat, but I may be asking for too many algae cleaners, with only one betta. Which I probably won’t even be able to get for another month.

Still, it was fun to watch the tanks.

Anoreth’s CD is in the mail (Priority - two days). I wanted the t-shirt for myself, but I don’t think it would fit.

Tom and the byos need to work on Pinewood Derby cars.

Smashup on the highway in -- longest backup I've ever seen. I don't know how somebody got up enough speed at this hour to smash the SUV front end like that, but it was a mess.

Oh well, teleconference starts in a few minutes.

Enjoy! I need to take Elen to the doctor this afternoon. She has a bite or sting or infection or something on her arm that’s not responding to the all-purpose magic of tea-tree oil.

I hate to see smash-ups. They always remind me of my narrow miss.

Teleconference? Is this Monday?
