Pointless Announcements

I think I will take my turtle out for a "walk" today so she can have some time in the grass....

 

Boohead reports that she stayed up until 6am this morning watching an ostrich egg hatch on the internet.

 

Martial arts for the stupid.

Is this what your beloved American Karate looks like, Plan9 ?

 

I've been watching it this morning He (or she) is almost out!

 

It occurs to me just now that Oliver Stone only ever made one good film.

She's missing it. She went back to bed, lol.

 

it is past noon. time for a beverage and some cumbia.

 

Now now, let's give them the benefit of the doubt.
There are many, many ways for that sesame seed to have gotten on your cheek after you left your parents house.
A stray seed could have dropped from a bird flying over head while you were outside. The bird could have just had a Big Mac with some friends at McDonalds and it had made a pig of itself and not cleaned up afterwards.
Also, a band of roving ninjas could have gone through their neighborhood and decided to play tag with you, but then were called away to a ninja+pirate fight at the last second.
They could have been eating Asian cuisine of some sort. It's more likely, with them. (generalization)

That's just two examples out of literally millions of ways that you could have gotten a stray sesame seed stuck on your cheek.
Don't you feel bad about these wild accusations thrown out at the people that hatched you from their loins?


/my work here is done

 

^^^ with all of the new fashion accessories like piercings, tattoos and such, maybe they thought you were making a statement about food.

 

Always appreciate your assistance, Fremen!

 

Just watched 3 seasons of How I Met Your Mother in 3 weeks. Not sure how I feel about that.

OH WELL

On to getting caught up on Doctor Who!

 

I need to admit I am addicted to Lemonheads. I need a 12 step program.

 

Me, too! I love those things. Especially when I am studying.

 

Did not sleep last night. Mosquitos ate me alive.

Early morning coffee, then off to the airport.

 

Give these a go......

Lemon Bars​

4 large eggs 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Shortbread base, recipe follows 3 tablespoons powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a bowl whisk together eggs and granulated sugar until combined well and stir in lemon juice and flour. Pour lemon mixture over hot shortbread. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F. And bake in middle of oven until set, about 30 minutes. Cool completely in pan and cut into 24 bars. Bar cookies keep, covered and chilled, 3 days. Sift confectioners' sugar over bars before serving.
Shortbread Base:
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cut butter into 1/2-inch pieces. In a food processor process all ingredients until mixture begins to form small lumps. Sprinkle mixture into a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking pan and with a metal spatula press evenly onto bottom. Bake shortbread in middle of oven until golden, about 20 minutes. While shortbread is baking, prepare topping.

 

While destroying a pumpkin spice muffin at work I am reminded that it is almost pumpkin spice latte season. I can't wait for fall. It is my favorite.

 

It appears I wasn't invited to the party today.
