Sorry, we can't have the Boy Scouts and MJ in the same parade. :o

I just got off the phone with him, Michael Jackson says he'll stay in Bahrain, has some more skin-bleaching sessions and also said he was too afraid of the yeti (but in fact HAS been doing some hyperbaric treatments w/ sacred yeti scat that he dug up on Neverland).

:lol:

But remember this is a YETI in Scout's clothes...:huh:

ah, sweet temptation...

Hey! Did some quick research. The Australian term for their mysterious hairy bipoedal hominid is not Yeti (that's Nepal), but Yowie. Much nicer...better for the parade. Jess, some new stanzas, please? :lol:

I think our parade needs The A-team to hand out Glow sticks too :)

Um . . . you're 46?!?! You HONESTLY do not look a day over 36. So is living with Dingos the true Fountain of Youth?

I accidentally glutened myself on Wednesday evening (with the stupidest mistake in the history of Celiac Disease) and I was finally able to get some sleep last night. Not sure if it was the gluten or my crazy blood sugar but I had some really weird dreams. But the general theme of these dreams was a very odd, rather perverse parade! So I just wanted to report that all of this silliness made it into my messed up dreams!

Thanks for all of the funniness. It does a body good. I can't believe I'm laughing within 48 hours of ingesting gluten.

Once the hellish first 24 hours were over I decided I was going to try and fight the glutening and just carry on but my brain and my tummy aren't on board with that <_< . So I'm heading back to bed. Have fun with all the funniness. Thanks for the much needed giggles.

"Who's the guy in the big fur coat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who's on top of the rainbow float?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Who can tip the biggest boat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

"Hey! Who ate Chuck Heston's goat?"

"YOWIE!" "YOWIE!"

ok, got a little lame towards the end.

or all the way through,

but come on! How many poems about giant furry semimythical beasts can a girl come up with in one morning?

Maybe Jan Michael Vincent (the man with three first names) could do a fly-over in "Airwolf". I hear he's looking for work. (as are most of the stars from 80's tv favorites :huh: )

Can I drive David Hasselhoff's car KITT? I seem to remember him already assigned some other role in the parade.

Glad we can get your mind off the yuckiness--at least for a few minutes. Feel better, my friend :)

Sorry about the glutening.

And, no, I'm NOT caught up. I have two busy days and this thread takes off!

Yep--and I'll follow you in the Dukes of Hazzard car (the one with no working doors)--it'll be me and Chuck :wub:

He's leaving his big Dodge truck at home ;)

Nay, Nay, quite excellent, I say. (That actually sounds more like Dr. Seuss)

Plus, the goat had it coming.

Yes--Montgomery County.

Oh, and two thumbs up for School House Rock. One of my faves from kidhood. I just got the DVD for my kids a couple of months ago. My favorite was/is Open Original Shared Link

Yes--Montgomery County.

When they showed the table full of guns I almost died. What is wrong with people today. That place is not so far from Harrisburg. Maybe an hour.

I just hope it's the original version and not the re-make, please leave Jessica Simpson at home!

How's the packing going Patti?

I agree Susie Q does not look her age, no Susie Q hit 30-ish and just stopped. Susie Q defies time, and gravity. It's just something she does.

... a bit like Chuck Norris :P

I do vaguely remember that I once heard, through a friend of a friend, that the only thing that even comes close to sending a chill up the mighty Mr. Norris' spine is the thought of meeting the business end of the Iroquois Skull Crusher that hangs above Susie's mantle. Speak softly and carry BIG STICK! She defies time, gravity and any other laws of physics that she pleases! :o

:lol: SO not true. But, Alex, to answer your question, YES, the secret is living with dingos, AND lots of sunscreen. ;)

oh, and still having ACNE at 45 helps a lot :angry: (two months shy of 46)

Got carded until my late 30's, early 40's.....then gained over TWENTY-FIVE POUNDS removing gluten and, never get carded any more.

har-RUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

Ahem, excuse me, picture taken in July of this year. :P A confession: objects in photo appear younger than in person. In real life, I look quite haggard today, and would NOT insert a photo from this week, should one be taken (like the elusive yeti, I am hard to capture on film).

bloody miserable headache and puffy eyes today, just what IS in Coca Cola? :unsure: somebody tell me, because I NEVER drink them, and had half of one at lunch yesterday.....is it the chemicals? feel and look like rubbish today. and now must head out to Cheesecake FActory for lunch......ugh. Wish to remain in seclusion today.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews. 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path
    • xxnonamexx
      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.
