Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, a lot of the soy milks I've tried have had that bitter soy undertaste to them, or else they have rice flour (also a less-severe allergy for me) for body. I've never tried almond milk, which I've heard can be pretty good.
The whole protein thing would be so much easier if I could eat some cheese with/for breakfast. Le Sigh.
Got back from Arkansas late last night. Was good to see the in-laws and MiL made a lovely dinner. I'm going to have buttermilk pie for breakfast I think.
What about peanut butter? I've operated on the assumption that it's high in protein-- I lunch on pb & bagel frequently (high in protein, fat and carbs). A handful of soy nuts might be good as well.
I am taking a break from the homestead. When I left half of the new entertainment center had been put together. The old one was emptied and moved this morning. This will definately get completed today. Whee!
Mr. Jane's parents put him to work as soon as we got there. They added an office and a porch and replaced the floors with hardwood. On the plus side we came home with a new doormat that looks just like Oz in a cowboy outfit, a bookshelf, a new screen door, FiL's complete album collection, duck gumbo, and of course delicious piiiiiiiiiieeeee.
Unfortunately, not staying home by myself for the holiday meant I missed a phone call from my sister telling me she was here. Also, a phone call from a friend of mine back in Louisiana telling me she's getting married- she left a number, but there was static or the phone cut out on the last number.
You can never leave home again, DJ.
Kat has informed me that it's legal in Texas for a man to kill his adulterous wife and the cuckold too. In theory, they'd have to be in flagrante delicto, but it can extend to cold-blooded premeditated murder if he knows the cheating is happening.
I can't quite believe this--I can believe it used to be the case, but she cited something as recently as 1974 about a man who trapped his wife and best friend, shot him, beat her, and wasn't indicted (at least on the murder).
Wha? How? Shouldn't there be some sort of outrage somewhere?
I'm hoping that the law has changed since then, and that's why it's news to me.
It has changed but fairly recently, and only when they discovered that it would have to apply to a man cheating on his wife.
ETA:
You can never leave home again, DJRight!?! Actually the calls were on my cell, but because in-laws are up in some beautiful hills in the middle of nowhere, where you can actually hear nature and see the stars and see deer and foxes and bunnies, I don't have service up there. Also, my diamond shoes are too tight.
And terribly jealous of your imbibing with Izzard
Thank DOG. I'd hoped a Texan would be in the house who knew.
Ahem. NOT a Texan. I just live here. When I make my millions I'm going back home.
Sorry. You're no more Texan than I am Californian, although I'm okay with being described as such. It's American that's wrong.
