I am also having a text argument/discussion with new neighbor P about geeky tv. He didn't like Serenity, and I think the last few seasons of BSG were largely crap. Good times.
'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Natter 70: Hookers and Blow
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.
You tell him to SHUT UP and Mal will kick his ass, even if I basically agree with him.
Liese, here's a blog post by an athletic woman who is trying the Paleo diet: [link]
She really likes it, although I know there are questions about the, um, philosophical/anthropological underpinnings of the theory. Still, more vegetables and less processed carbs sounds like a great deal to me.
In fact, I just started making dinner, which will be pancetta with sauteed kale and scrambled eggs. But I will probably have some TJs macarons for dessert...
Green olives have almost no net carbs, so they make a great snack food on a low carb diet.
I am looking at recipes to make a shopping list for the nanny tomorrow. I need a board name for the nanny, maybe Poppins or McPhee, since she's British.
I'll post things that sound good.
Oh, I like McPhee.
oh the weather map looks like a pretty rough batch is passing over NOLA now - yellow and orange patches.
My favorite easy crock pot meal involves throwing frozen chicken thighs in with 1 onion, 1 can of coconut milk, tomato paste, curry powder, cardamon, ginger, cayenne pepper and 1/2 stick of butter. In 4 hours you have butter chicken!
that sounds yum.
Stay safe NOLAns!
I DID know that The Tennessee Waltz was one of TN's state songs. I was born there. But, I mostly hear the Homer & Jethro parody version when I hear the melody. Thanks, Daddy!
The family car was a Volkswagen Bus from the time I was 4 until I left home for the Army at 20. My father tried to teach me to drive stick, off and on for a year. It took my Mother 1 weekend. We yelled at each other a lot, which my father never did, but I was damned if I wasn't gonna prove my mother wrong and get the hang of it just to shut her up!
eta: Instead of yelling, father just flinched a lot.
