"These are a few of my Least favorite things"

Number one has always been REALLy REALLY skinny girls saying "oh my GAWD LOOK at how FAT I am"
thats irritating, but I honestly never would have belived somthing could take the place as my number one thing that seriously irritates me to just think about. I have found that thing and its going to take a WHOPER to dis-place this one.

Everyone remebers Rick Moranis right? Right? Of course you do, Honey I shrunk the kids, Honey I blew up the kids, Hunny I accidentally left the kids in the car in direct sunlight all day, etc etc
I have never been a moranis fan, no not even in his "comdey days"
he really does just, like the kid who always stared at you while you ate your lunch in school, annoy me severly. Luckily I never have to aknowlege him, Rick goes his way, i go mine.
Rick has CROSSED the line.
Rick has made a country album. A singing... honkey tonk of a time country album. you may think to yourself "Good for Rick, maybe he has found his true calling" and then you listen to his music which is somewhere up there with the likes of "dentist chair sonata" or the JINGLE cats, and you realize this world really is unfair, yah so if the starvation, the poverty the torture and the abuse isnt bad enough, now I have to be woken up in the morning to samples such as "Wheaties Box"
Please I ask you , visit his site, maybe I am entirly out of line in saying "WHY is it ANYONE who is ANYONE can wake up one morning and decide they are the next big thing? Tyra Banks did it, Lindsay shudder Lohan decided she would do it, Paris Hilten tried it hell even everyones favorite rotund and constantly PMS'ing mother Rosanne did it (a childrena album to make things worse) but with the addition of Rick moranis my friends, that is too much, here is the line: ________ and here is Rick crossing it:

/ - rick

you know, maybe he was trying to be funny... maybe its all a joke, i dont get it.... all i know is he was on "breakfast televsion" this morning and the hosts were GUSHING about his new album and congradulating him on his Grammy nomination for this drivil. Maybe I am just a jerk, well I am just a jerk but i swear I think this is lame.
please go here, listen, read, be inspired,

Yah yah, so lost in the pre-stress stress in between the time I was given 3 minuts before I had to go up and I Had lost my sheet music which i needed for one song and was quickly trying to re-write and re-chord it while chad tried to tune everything all at once... so i forgot to ask someone to take a picture for the old memory box... I guess I could always photo shop...

Mmm Mmm Tasty

(what the hell is with the Penguin?)

For a lack of things to say I was thinking of turning my blog into a recipe blog and then I realized that was a completly retarded idea.
But then I thought, well maybe just once... because I love to cook and I love making up recipes so here I present to you:
A day of dee-licious

For lunch

Mmmm its everybodies favorite, TASTEY TUNA TOPPERS
THis is an old play on a favorite recipe of Tuna Melts, take away the whole fatty melt part and your run of the mill bread and you are left with... Tuna... replace that melt and bread with OPTION and my friends what does that leave you with?
A delicious open faced sandwich that hardly anyone in your family will enjoy.

what you need:
Eezekiel living, Sprouted Bread, so good for the bowels, it flowers as it passes through the digestion track (in my mind anyways)
If you dont have Eezikil Living bread... use bread...
ok Tuna, check, easy enough who doesnt have a ton of tuna cans in their cupboard?
Avocodo- the fruit of the GODS
Leeks (the bottom part not the green leaves for this recipe) (or onions... or chives)
tomato
oregnao
lime or lemon juice
herbamate... or salt.

What you need to do:
TAke bread, spread on thick layer of Avocodo (this stands in the place of nasty mayo from the tuna melt recipe) smother bread in avocodo
Place tuna and finlay chopped leeks and herbamate to taste.. or salt and crushed garlic and mix it all in together.
sprinkle on bread
top with the chopped tomatoes
add oregano to top
sqeeze on the lime or lemon goodness and broil in your toaster over for ... enough to time till its done.
Mmmmm delicious.

Another favorite:
as a substitute for Mashed potatoes I like to make Squash MASH
very easy
bake yoru squash till squashy hull it out
in a frying pan already have toasting some seaseme seeds OR sunflower seeds (nice to add some roughage to such a mushy food)
stick the squash in the pan as well now and add in your leek bottoms once again, at this point I like to throw in some honey too to sweetin it up as opposed to the brown sugar of Aunt Dellas thanksgiving squash.
let that all heat up together and fry a little bit and its done.
nice and easy.
(except the whole squash taking 2 hours to bake and burning your fingers trying to peel it hot...)
I like to use this as a side dish where mashed potatoes would go excpet its way healthier and .. way oranger and tastes like.. somthing... where as potatoes taste like starch. Mmmm starchy.


And one more:
this is my favorite meal right now its easy and reallly realy GOOD FOR YOU
prepare some Quenoi (Keen-waah) buy it prepare it.. just do it, its amazing, more calcium than milk and while it looks and acts like a grain its a member of the Kale and leafy green family! Shocking
Make it up,
I like to put either Miso or Soya sauce in it for flavour.
Put in dish, throw in some already fried garlic and leeks ( i dotn know whats with me and leek lately)
thats your base
for the top now you need to make some sweet potatoes. Boil them, steam them, bake them what ever you do and chop them up into BIG dice or somthing... also while you are cooking them take your leek TOPS that you have been so rudley ignoring and boil them up too. Now an american favorite, Broccoli.
Cook them all. Then toss them togther in a pan and put it in the oven with honey drizzled over the top. you only need a little.
back that about 5 minuts (well broil) then throw all the vegetables on top of the Keen-waah. and VOILA. SOOOO good.

eat it today, i mean it... EAT IT TODAY.
all these meals go nice with nice hot cup of ginger tea for the digestion.
we should all be feeling at the top of our game in no time and enjoying Oprah patended "C or S Poops" in no time
alright, now get out there and EAT.

A most terrifying prarie experiance

It was late spring eve.
All were nestled snug in our beds. Chad had just left for the night shift around 11:30 when I heard the dogs a rustlin'.
I figured Chad hadnt given them their bed time snack so I got out of bed and went to the "Doggy den" in the basement. We had built a room down there specially for them so they could go in and out as they please via the old coal shoot. Now when we did this neighbours with their noses poked through our fence told us time and again that this was only asking for a colony of mice to take up residence, but really, what mouse saunders past a dog or two not to mention the litter of cats we had at the time, so we went ahead anyway.
Turning on the light I see both dogs are crowded onto one bed, weird....
I looked at the other bed that both dogs were staring at and lefted up one corner.
I then saw what the disturbance was all about, it was the BIGGEST lizard I had ever seen!!! IT WAS AT LEAST 4 INCHES LONG!!! (somtimes when you are scared you imagine fangs and giganticness that isnt really there).
I screamed and ran out of the door hurrying both dogs with me. It was all... ugh... grey... and cold looking, terrifying I tell you.
WEll somthing had to be done, I tried calling Chad to come home and get it, but no answer, (yes I know, looking back I could have handled it a little better) So I went back down there with a coffee can full of nails.... and dumped the nails out.
The lizard was all cold and moving slowly, like lizards do when the temperature drops. Without looking I felt with the can and pushed the lizard in, covering it with a piece of ply wood I ran all the way to Chads work in my pajamas and slippers in the cold night and barged through the door screaming "OH MY GOD A LIZARD A LIZARD IN THE HOUSE"
Panicing STILL, I pass by the late night card players who looked at me like I was insain and past Josaphine on her crazy midnight walks when she thinks its time for breakfest... we worked a senior home.... and some of them werent all there, this one included... I find Chad getting off the couch to hear what the noice is about, Im flalling wildly down the hall, he looks stunned WHAT ON EARTH happen???
THIS!!!!!!
and I pass him the canister almost in tears, (i just REALLY dont like animals in my house that I dont put there, they scare me)
"LOOK at this LIZARD that was in my HOUSE"
he looks in .... Josaphine comes in, he tilts it so she can see, he is smiling....
Josiphine says to me as if im the crazy one
"its... a salmander.... whats your problem?"

see APPARENTLY salamanders live in saskatchewan and well in the towns and they touch people and houses... and UGH, on that very night, not only was my face red but I was red-E to leave that God forsaken province,
all it takes is a small frog like creature to really set my wheels spinning, and i blame THAT salamader on my decision to move.

sick.

AHHHHH

LOOK at this SICK ASS THING!!!!!!!!!!
wow, I never knew it, but I think I finally have a real phobia, i will not eat for the rest of the DAY.

(a phobia other than the fork thing of course... but...... lets... not... talk about... it.)

everyone everyone calm down, we need to have order in this blog

its fun, because blogs were SO the THING of the month a while ago and now.... uh, why is it again i like to read about other peoples days and mostly uneventful lives?
OOOO thats right, its a way to communicate without ACTUALLY having to comunicate.
Well its time for another installment of "What i did today"

Today I bought bateries for the key board that is wirless, which if you have read any past posts you will have seen the loss of punctuation or spaces...
I took my 2 dogs over to this neglected dogs house and they 3 played together SO nicely for a few hours.
I got my legs waxed and almost lapsed into insanity it hurt me so bad.
I decided never to ever do it again.
Hmmm i went to the bathroom maybe up to 3 times! Including one trip to the public washroom *shudder*
and then i had supper complete with squash soup, yum

Now did you make it through all that?" you are exhausted arent you?
Hello?
Helllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooo???

A change .... do do do do... wil do you good... do do do do

I often pride myself on the extream hairyness of my legs, if extream leg hair was a game, i would have won.
But I am going to allow a stranger to put hot wax on my delicate skin and rip my hairs out from their roots.
leave it to my mom to find us this mother daughter bonding time.
WHAT AM I THINKING????

i think a lot pf time i loose complete ideas at a time of who i am.i foget about the person i am and this video camera starts to play in my head as though I am a 24 hour long movieI label myself dail and i spend more time than i am proud of trying to my damndest to figure out who I am.The way my hair looks will define me tomorrow and the way voice craked when i was singing in the car todayhas set the current tone.A good pretender is always hardest to spot where someone who really knows themselves always seems to be the tallest in every crowd how does it work out in my favour day after dfay that i am alwayss getting exactly what it is I need.I need a break right now, I have a break from work but I need a break from cooking, from eating, from wipping up shit that has leaked all over the fridge, jam all over the gnocchi.I need to write a damn song already, but everything that pours from my hands onto the fret board these daysjust sounds like somthing else i have heard... just the other day. NO one can patend G D and F but somehoe feels like plaguerism just the same. I think i need a break from the one preson i spend all my time with ; me. but how does that work without resulting in brain damage or dire consequences?I am generally happy, but I am generally BORED. Bored right out of my skull and when the cats away the mice will play.Bring back the nights when I would stay up till morning wriign lyrics that would always be forgotten afterthe much needed sleep but that I am sure were good in their time. BRing back the days when I was begginfor just one day to do nothing when my plate was over flowing.i bored with not trying to look a certain way, this just how i look damn it, i know, i know im sick of it tooi sound so negitive, naw not really though, i have purged from my life in the last 6 months so muchgreen and moulding shit that I often pretended I needed and here I am bones and boring trying tofind the missing puzzle pieces that got dropped and most likely swept under the rug or vaccumed up.BAck to the kitchen I go and what will i find? Probably more contemporary bean salads and uninspiring bottlesof sauce that should have met their maker months ago.we cant blame the weather because the sun has burnt up all the clouds and the rain has stopped.They say not everyone finds themselve but i am hoping to find myself before i find myself in a holein the ground staring up at the earth worms and askign them:"so, how about you? Are you satisfied with YOUR day to day?"hahah but in general i am pretty happy, happy is a general term meaning: everything is just fine.And we all klnow that well enougn should be left alone, me being the accorn that fell to far from the tree.

are YOU a hippie?

Score: 189
I am absolutely a hippie!
Make Love Not War, Pass the doobie!
Take the elitemrp.net "Are you a Hippie?" Test

HAPPY NEW YEARS

In a last ditch effort to pull new years out of swiss billy goats ass 3 of us drove away from the party at 11:30 to take refuge at the Boars head (lovely place) with all the other boring people in this province, boring is good, I can respect boring...
