seconding meara ! Quinoa is great, in it's natural form it's used like rice (and found in the bulk section of health food stores) but it's also made into flakes and flour and there's one brand that makes quinoa pasta.
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

Suzi, v. sorry about the job, that would've been awesome. Any other fabulous opportunities out there? Espeically if your boss is supportive, that would kick ass.
Thanks. The good was that my supervisor talked to Big Boss about this and Big Boss's response was that the lost job would have initially been a stretch, but after that, I would have been a good fit. That made my day. Ok, the JOB would have really made my day, but knowing that Big Boss has that level of faith in me is VERY NICE.
No other opportunities on the immediate horizon, but I'm getting better about talking to folks and networking. If I haven't found something within the company by the end of the year, I'll start looking outside.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
meara, did you have dates yet on visiting SF? Not poking, just wondering if I flaked or something.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Isn't it next weekend? Friday the 24th/Saturday the 25th, when she'll be free?

Yes, P-C has it right, I'm flying in Thursday evening (at 5:10pm) and leaving Saturday at 12:45pm. But I haven't gotten a schedule from them on what'll be involved, so I haven't made plans yet.

Dog is my co-pilot.
Any suggestions for some carbs/fiber variety?
I'll add another hearty endorsement for quinoa. I make mine in a rice cooker. It uses the same proportions and timing as white rice but it's much yummier. My fave quinoa recipe is Quinoa with Potatoes and Cumin. Mmmmm.

I have A's tickets for Friday night. Not sure if you will be free, or if you even like baseball - but I could kick one of the kids to the curb for ya.
