    Dinning Alone

    My old cat J.D. would not usually cuddle. But if I brought out a newspaper he would have to climb up on my lap so I could not read it. Do all cats do that? Maybe it was a paper thing. Big paper bags were one of his favourite toys. J.D. (yes Jack Daniels) was not technically mine. My roomate got...

    The only cat I ever had was fascinated with showers too. He would wait outside and rush to the tap when I opened the door. He was fascinated by dripping taps.

    I don't find roomates irritating especially. I got one now but he is a real hermit in his room. I just love the freedom. Like being able to walk around the house naked scratching private parts. ooohh eeeeeew Not even a pretty picture for me, lol.

    I am jealous you have a rotisserie. I should have gone up a level in my toaster oven and got one that had a rotisserie. What can you do on them beside chicken? It would take me too long to eat a whole chicken even a game hen. Even 1 breast is a large portion for me and with eating it once a week...

    The label link was good. What the label says has more bearing these days on what I eat than anything. Then I don't have much choice in the matter. Being on a lowfat no salt added diet isn't that bad. A diabetic or straight weight loss diet would probably be worse. I need to eat a more whole...

    I'm leaving work soon. Talk to you next week when I reurn. Have fun and Happy Holidays and Yule. I think Yule is actually a 3 day feast culminating on the 24 or 25 depending on when the solstice falls. Have fun in Mannassas.

    I going to start saving my shrimp, lobster and crab shells to boil and make a fish stock. You can buy beef, chicken and veggie stocks but I have never seen fish stock. It's chicken tonight for me. It's not too cold 10'C so might fire up the barbie and do up a chicken kebob with a jerk sauce.

    Your welcome. I use wine when I do my collossal fresh water shrimp. Just a cheap white wine from grocery store. I use the cooked oil/wine/juices as a sauce to dip or pour over the shrimps.

    Convert or Die

    http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2006/12/12/MNG8TMU1KQ1.DTL Do the christians here feel that this game is a bit tasteless to say the least? Video games are supposed to be fun and not taken to seriously but is this a wholesome message to be sending out?

    It's ok to take yourself seriously, just not too seriously. Drama queen..........hmmmmm. Maybe take some of the excess hysteronics (right word?) and join a local theater group. A good outlet for emotions. Channel them in to a role or character. Keep you busy and let you meet new people. Everyone...

    Had a couple of buddies come over for supper Saturday night. One brought filet mignon from M&M's. The other brought 2 bottles of wine. I supplied the giant prawns, S&B Herb & Garlic potatoes, Honey Garlic braised carrots, yogurt and raspberries for dessert and cooked. Was awesome. I think the...

    Am thinking pork tonight. Got some marinated loin, some brown beans and simple potatoes in the nuker. Nuker does great job on anything with lots of water content that you do not want to brown. And chocolate ice cream (98% fat free) for dessert.

    Think I will have shrimp tonight with my quick spicy rice. Went grocery shopping yesterday so got a fresh head of cauliflower. I should get a big steamer basket for my wok and steam my rice, shrimp and cauliflower together. Does taste of shrimp get in to other things if steamed together? Can you...

    I stated "Might need to increase sugar or sub brown sugar for refined white maybe?" Should have said sub white for brown. This because the cocoa might be bitter. Will try to find low fat chips. If not chocolate cookies sound yummy to me.
