  1. We were supposed to eat a pork roast for dinner, but it didn't thaw enough. So we had burgers and fries because that's what my husband told me he wanted. I was goofing off online because that's what I do when I discovered this evening that Grand Theft Auto IV has a mod that lets you play AS A GIRAFFE!!! Now, I've never been a fan of the GTA series of...
  2. I had to go look up a pizzookie. Then I immediately checked for BJs in my area. Not a single one in Utah. Last week my husband was sick with a cold. He got better and I felt fine so I thought I escaped. Until yesterday afternoon when it finally hit me. Who gets colds in JUNE!!! This is stupid. I don't know what he'll eat for dinner, but whatever it is...
  3. My mystery sender remains a mystery. Tonight we're going to just have burgers and corn on the cob and whatever other veggie I dig up for myself. With it having truly turned summer I'm rather enjoying things that are simple, delicious and take very little effort. Like lunch... apples and gouda. I was gifted a small block of gouda which I don't think I...
  4. Fauxreos! Hahaha I love it! If I had better self control I would keep them in the house all the time. My sleeping pills say on the bottle to take with food and I take them half an hour before bed. Well cookies and milk are a perfect bedtime snack, but I just can't seem to control myself with those cookies. Fortunately, my husband is doing a good job of helping...
  5. Or my mother maybe? Or my dad, which would be weird but I suppose he might do it. I just doubted my kids cause they already sent me crap for mother's day and there is no reason for them to send me crap now. I could see my husband doing it maybe, although he's not awesome at keeping secrets. Time to start gently harassing people.
  6. Giraffe! Just one, but that's all you need to make cookies with. There is only one appropriate shape to make cut out cookies into. At least in this house.
  7. Apparently mysterious people are mailing me cookie cutters. I called the company on the way out of the house to PT and they're all psh... we don't know nothin bout nothin but we sell stuff on etsy and amazon and all over the interwebs so maybe you bought something and didn't know it was from us. Whatever. I got to the post office and they showed me a package...
  8. So happy for you that you're on your bike again! I'm off to PT and stopping on the way home at the library and post office. I got a thing yesterday saying they had something for me to pick up but that 39 cent is due for postage. I've never heard of the company it's from and I'm quite confused. I definitely want to know what it is before I go giving them...
  9. I have trouble making plans because they end up changed all the time. Tonight I made garlic bread with Hodgson Mill pizza crust mix. We just plain old don't like Chebe. But the Hodgson Mill was great, if sticky to work with. Can't wait to make a pizza. I'm just glad my arm was fully functional (if still sore) today so I could cook. Tomorrow I'm making...
  10. A cousin found an old pic and I just wanted to share because I'm so amused. I'm the 5 year old in pigtails on my mom's lap hiding. My brother is totally the dorky one on the bench on the left. I can't believe someone is digging up pics this ancient. I'm sure my mom and her hair want to forget the early 80's!
  11. My husband was raised by a woman who thought that the fact that he was diabetic meant that he never had to go hungry, never had to be told to eat what was on his plate, never had to be forced or taught to eat vegetables. Blending his sauce so that it is chunk free is our compromise, he eats veggies in his sauce but doesn't have to look at or chew them. I...
  12. Even when I've had to give up foods, once I got over my hissy fit it was nice to know what was making me feel unwell (in whatever way) so I could get feeling better. I'm glad you know so you can feel better. We added new exercises for my arm/shoulder/neck yesterday in PT. While there was mild discomfort, there wasn't pain and the others started that...
  13. I really wish we had a pool here at home. We don't even have the fitness center pool because they're doing construction to upgrade some things there. But, when they're done it'll be nicer. And in the fall they'll have an additional second pool too. I indulged tonight for dinner. We had spaghetti and meatballs. We don't often go beyond the bulk penne...
  14. I don't know what I managed to do on Monday night, but I set myself off with an allergic reaction to something early in the evening. I did still somehow find the energy to sit in the dirt on Tuesday (hubby's day off) and let him do all the real work while I did the putting seeds and plants in the ground. We also got our soaker hose in this year, so I won...
  15. My husband seems to like Old El Paso. I used to... until I discovered Nueva Cocina which is so very sadly out of business. (still makes me want to cry) Fortunately I have a huge stash of packets I found on clearance that will probably last me through the summer. I did try La Frontera twice, they're pretty decent. Probably what I'll go to when I run out....
  16. Mmmmm!!!! That looks good! I think I need one now too. I'll have to see if it turns out as something my husband will eat if I leave out the onions.
  17. Maybe I should have said skinnier instead of skinny. But heck, I was a 12 between kids and imo at this point I consider that pretty darn skinny. Still, I'm happy just the way I am. And gratz on the birthday and getting off the prednisone! It's always awesome when life is looking up. I made an impromptu shopping trip today after getting an email...
  18. Hey, I would live at your house with that meal plan. It sounds amazing! And I'd be happy to eat all your gelato for you. Sure, I'd be happy to lose some weight, but I'm also perfectly happy to stay this size forever too. Whatever. I'd rather be fat and happy than skinny and living life without cupcakes and gelato. I'm making chicken something tonight...
  19. We were at Costco yesterday and they were doing a bunch of gluten free samples again. One of them was Tortilla Land tortillas, which are amazingly delicious. We'll have quesadillas tonight. Can't wait. I may have spoiled my dinner a little though. Costco also now sells huge boxes of Glutino oreos which somehow ended up in the cart and I just couldn't resist...
  20. Wednesday we found some Georges on sale at a really great price the first time we stopped in the new Wal-Mart Marketplace that opened near us. (which puts us at 3 Wal-Marts we can grocery shop at within 10 minutes from home. SO SPOILED!) We cooked one last night and will can him today. We'll probably make dinner of leftovers. We've been weeding today and...
  21. The trout was a hit. Yay!!! I can let my husband's uncle know to send more over if he has spares. I've never had to deal with a mostly whole fish before though, so that was a challenge. I suppose practice will make perfect. Recently my husband said he wants to make a bbq ranch chicken pizza. Something we used to make all the time together. But, I've only...
  22. I am going to cook my first trout tonight. I've never cooked one before but an uncle is an avid fisher and catches far more than they can comfortably eat. So I told him as long as it doesn't have a head on it, we'll take them. (I do NOT do food that looks back at me, it creeps me the hell out.) I hope I still like it, I haven't had trout since I was a teen...
  23. I'd make chili or some type of soup or stew. Snow? Now? That just seems like some sort of really messed up and inappropriate joke.
  24. We are having breakfast for dinner today. Pancakes and eggs and bacon flavored sausage. And because insomnia is awesome, the strawberry muffins I baked at 2:30 this morning. I also cleaned the bathroom floor, did the dishes and left no mess to clean up from my muffins. Apparently I'm awesome in the middle of the night.
