I'm always confused when I wake up and am just getting my coffee and sitting down to my work when all y'all are talking lunch. I used to be in your time zone!
Although, definitely get the mushroom risotto. Mmm, risotto. Tonight's menu plan is Mario Batali's squash risotto. It is teh yum. But takes work, so although it was last night's menu plan, I was tired and last night ended up being frozen meatloaf. That was a good idea. It was like I'd slaved over a hot oven all day, but I hadn't. Or rather, I had, but it was a week ago, and I only slaved the once.
What else? Oh, fandom. Yeah. What can you do? Don't let it drive you crazy. You'll achieve plenty even with the naysayers. Remember this whole thing came out of negative junk. That anything positive at all is coming out of it is great.
I'm reading all this talk about food, and my sister calls to tell me that she and my new BIL cashed in the LobsterGram I passed onto them (since I wasn't going to be able to cash it in before it expired this upcoming Monday). They were able to get lobster tails, steaks, clam chowder, lobster bisque, and crab cakes for the $100 of the gift certificate plus an extra $100 (which included the $30 for delivery). Not bad, for all that food!
I've got my new LobsterGram for participating in that citizenship quiz a few weeks ago, and have been looking over the catalog to figure out what to order. I was leaning towards king crab legs, but my sister pointed out that two pounds aren't really a lot of meat, and the next level up of 4 pounds would take the whole amount of the gift certificate. I'll have to think about it before ordering. The shrimp and corn chowder sounds yummy.
Alibelle, are you still around? I must remember to call you later.
Morning arrived extra early today which made me extra cranky. I thought I was tricking Noah last night by feeding him at 10:30. Maybe he would sleep through until 5:00? OH NO! Little bugger got me. He woke up at 4:00, which means there was NO POINT in trying to go back to sleep.
I just inhaled a breakfast sammich from Starbucks (turkey bacon and fake egg, whoot!) and it was fucking delicious.
I had one of those this morning, Brenda! It was my "healthier" choice than my usual classic sausage.
nom nom nom.
That sucks, Kat. You should have called up the SO & chatted. He woke up at 4 this morning for no reason at all. Which he's been doing a lot. Confusing to people like me; I could sleep in indefinitely and can go back to sleep if I wake up early.
Breakfast sandwich sounds good. I had oatmeal, which would have been reasonably healthy, but it was an el cheapo donated instant oatmeal, which sucked, so I added a bunch of washed sugar to it. Which made it yum, but then it was more or less a vehicle to deliver the sugar.

I tried that this week too! With equally unsuccessful results! Stupid babies.
Aw, stupid babies need the MOST attention!
