    so shouldn’t I accentuate that color coordination?  I’m considering this as we speak

    and while we’re at it

    wouldn’t this up the coordination some?

    -

    I showed up that we have 7 people in our home and thus that swiffer was a genius call by the older roommate… but this still means twice a daying.  I say that as I have taken to not leaving the room without a fabreaze escort as the gemfibrozil has given me gastrointestinal complaint both mine and yours all week…. oil and dirt hmn,  scrub that floor…but at least it isn’t remaining presidential in here.  remember the joke now, burp for congress and fart for the oval office yes, how appropriate that oval is the shape of an egg…. and such was laid..  I’m not anti-anyone reallly I’ve always liked that dumb joke of matching rude bodily functions to politics.  and yes, youneededto know this because this is life… pretty and not so pretty tidings :D

     

     

  • sinful sunshine

    lets have some fun, sure there is politics to discuss and a few allusions to religious beliefs… sure, there will always be room for opinion… so, in honor of the earth shattering important

    orange chocolate coffee.

    of course I think tea’s better.  this doesn’t mean some sunshined up sin ain’t grand in a cup.

    -

    safeway’s chocolate syrup, kroger’s orange extract  and maxwell house coffee in a tub as in bulk…all of which were on sale.

    instead of making chocolate milk, use coffee instead…then, just as one would adore this feeling, pour some extract in just a splash mind….and adore how it feels like you liquored it up when extract is different and you never come close to boozed coffee….but mmm.

    there.  in case of zombie apocalypse, oranged choc coffee – sinful sunshine.

  • shrimp and greens

    not very pretty – is it?  shrimp and greens..  you’ll note that it sounds pretty, it’s also tastey too- but it’s just not very pretty to me…

    mustard greens atop sliced real garlic then peppers orange and yellow  with shrimp and tamarind soup base urned sauce with some corn starch / water.

    not hard to make at all..  not disgusting to eat.. just not  the prettiest dinner. :D

    enjoy dinner folks – or the adventure.  you’ll not starve at my house.  not every dish is for the magazines lol.  the I’m sorry it wasn’t magazinable dinner is a disgustingly large strawberry margarita.. I trust that ill make you stop whining Josh?

  • Why are you always preparing?

    what are you always preparing for? JUST GO!  – spaceballs’ dark helmet.

    I’m freshly back from the store and finishing that last blog…now, another one. scalloped potatoes.

    I have an orange extract, orange juice (shaken) and tequila over chipped ice  going

    I walked today, took my long insulin offcycle too soon and had a horrible morning of it but I rode it out as I was only at 71 AFTER a complete can of soda (sugar) so yeah, the numbers I’m supposed to acheive.  yuck.  I wanted a whopper and it’s still not 55 cents here at mine til tomorrow but yada.  I was just a junior before the whopper. awww.

    I’m looking up how to make scallopped potatoes.  you bet your sweet ass I could just ask my mom lol but the compliment isn’t happening, I’m independant and will find something close to her style and you all just hush.  :D there’s a compliment inthere somewhere ;) it’s just not blatant.

    mom’s scallopped potatoes are a saucey affair.  as in damn near a soup.  I LIKE this kind of stuff and in fact mom probably colored my tastes before I knew my own name :)   You parents out theredon’t cuss when we turn out annoyingly similar to you. :P

    so far the closest is a food network recipe which as usual sounds decadent and is but somehow not soupy enough

    http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/tyler-florence/scalloped-potato-gratin-recipe/index.html

    the “southern style” recipe loooks and sounds like fried potatoes not a casserole at all.

    http://southernfood.about.com/od/scallopedpotatoes/r/bl30129v.ht

     

    and for now I’m feeling my tequila so it’s time to ask you for something that is a dutch oven recipe  which requires at least three cups of liquid AFTER the potatoes are pre/par boiled if at alll  I need something akin to a new england clam chowder except with potatoes and ham with enough cheddar to make it right with god.

     

    that type of recipe is to be ruined immediately in favor of substitutioning the gouda for the base cheese sauce and enough smoked cheddar for colar.

     

    I make no bones..  this is the exploration.  will you help becausse I found tequila?

    not rechecking my math but I bet its 50% well wrong, nd I’m not sure the figures are double checked…  I’ll look again another time…. suffice it to say I know it’s higher in sodium but it’s not no 1200 something a serving. thats a salt lick.)

    or:

    1/3 rda sodium watch it but its allowable

    high protein

    manageable fat for dieting

    oh and the math problem? nah you might not know but most of the salty cookingliquid isn’t used in the final product so,  3/4 of it is tossed…thus 2/3 of the sodium is lost to a drain.  I am over estimating the salt above but that’s fine it’s still easy to let sodium get out of hand…. be carefull.

     

  • uh oh, philosphic

    @Runison48 offers up a blog on whether we should emphasize the DIY spirit more.  the short answer is ?  oh hell know I’m not rolling back even a day towards the stone age, life improes  with specialization.  the more special a soul is the greater hane at turning a dollar for said speicalness.  I ultimately disapproe of pioneering both the Jehovah’s witness shoe Jesus down your throat kind  AND the do it yourself entirely kind.  because ultimately one is not leaing room for the best of living – but taking  the cheap option.  There is even this idea that if you are fair with your dreams that you’ll admit the typical hit it rich dream is?  someone else doing it all for you….as you drink booze on a lawn chair oeanside on an island.  with hot fuck toys.

    I bought the last 30 rack of beer and it’s on a 20/21 shared two brother situation  both getting paid next tuesday and friday respectively.  I have the offie pool so to speak that says it will be gone friday nightsis, friday morning roommate forgot totry fibbing any outcome is a win  and 36 year old lady co worker said this evening ( they haven’t so far toucched a beer. ;) 25 beers 2 young    mind you.  one turns 21 soon enough. might already be forget.  but they’re young.

    in the pot soon to be bubbling is a chicken split breast finally available again! the pot liuor is 1/3 cap tomato chicken bouillon, 1/2 cap of soy, 1/4 same cap chopped onion dried. 5 shakes mesquite liquid smoke flavouring.  NO hot pepper.  once boiling and I mean it’s submerged with 3 teaspoons olive oil to counter the vldl (very low density lipid *cholesterol or so easy to calcify for your plaue induced heart attack it’s scary)))/ fat sure to bubble into the water…. this will later be fried with enough pot water to produce a bit of the burnt GRILLED look to the shredded chicken.  this should make enough diced/shredded chicken for 2-3 burritos   I have the correct RED and / or GREEN sauce plus mild yellow cheese to make smothered chicken burritos.

     

    my rescheduled doc’s appointment is in 12 hours 40 minutes or I leave 12 hours from now. I expect 40 bucks plus a glucometer for same said again plus 20 sundry since I’m there, 40 more for the # that made sure I had a phone all summer. call me clever about reemembering life isn’t free- even if I don’t have to feel obligated.  and40 more smokes and this leaves 10 in pizzas and junk.  or enough I can cover much of the rest of the month is MY food or 6  meals more not including snack pizzas / junk.  or 12 meals plus 2 gals milk breakfasts etc.  or,  half the expected food budget of 2 humans off – my food plus a week without others buying much to anything not chipping in save on a ham for christmas the less of the holiday feasts.  which means I have open – ;) my signature side offering of?

     

    get this.

    gouda taters scalloped.

    4 cups shredded smoked gouda 3 sauce / 1 au gratin, chipped ham,  milk to adjust, flour butter for said sauce, salt   sliced potatoes *boiled.  later in process fresh ground pepper.  or essentially make a bechemel, add 3 cups shredded cheese, salt, thin that enough to re boil taters, layer boiled hammed tater ham taters ham taters  fill with saue bake oered til bubbly thik then lightly cheese/bread crumb  papper and broil that browned bubbly voila?

     

    this should get me with rent, last of bills to january paid up early and through january’s drinking holiday ith? one month to go before I’m right side up from all debts loans/ money’s which is my february goal.  how  philosphi to be right after the holidays!

     

    and make fucking kick-ass scalloped potatoes sooo good you’d wet your pats to eat at my house.
