I find it easier when it's just the boy and I. He's not near as picky and we can eat what and when we please.

I think I'm going to go cook up some maple sausage and have it on mini bagels now. I'm hungry.

Ok, I really need to get the teriyaki on the chicken now so it can marinade alittle while.

WOW ! How bizarre.

"I had a nice bit of skirt"

sounds much better than..

"I had a great pair of flaps"

Not necessarily - in one perspective, it means you gotten much further.

This lentil salad I made is pretty good (and will be even better tomorrow). Completely vegetarian and, if you left out the Bulgarian feta, vegan.

Steamed French Lentils (2 packages from TJs)
1 red pepper
1 orange pepper
1 yellow pepper
1/2 red onion
8 green onions
1/2 Japanese cucumber
6 vine-ripened tomatoes
cubed Bulgarian feta

Dressing:
Balsamic vinegar (1/4 or 1/2 cup?)
3 cloves garlic
dried thyme (handful)
dried mint (the rest of the jar)
Olive oil to top it off.

Chop up everything and put in big bowl.
Mix dressing in separate container then add to chopped ingredients
Let sit for a bit.
Eat it for days with it getting better each day.

No dinner here tonight. Boy's not home, and I don't feel like eating.

Haven't eaten. Sitting here drinking a Coke and waiting for Alex. I was going to nuke a tv dinner, but the ants have once again invaded my kitchen. I hit the trails with the Windex, but now the ant triage unit has moved in. (sigh) I can't win against these fvckers. For the last two weeks we've fought back the ants - kitchen, living room, bathroom, you name it. We no sooner obliterate them in one spot than they swarm another. I still haven't figured out what they find so bloody interesting about my bathtub... must be something in the soap we use. Anyway, I don't like to go spraying flat-out poison around the kitchen (hence using windex instead, which, being a direct stream is easier to control than aerosol), so the battle rages on.

Dinner gets to wait.

Bill forgot to pick up a key ingredient of the chicken kabobs he wanted me to make tonight. So we went to the Park Pantry instead.

Get a caulk gun, and caulk where they are getting in. After about 20 tubes of caulk, and 2 years, they will give up.
