Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm going to have to investigate miso soup. I love miso soup. But I'm going to have chicken kourma and naan for lunch out tomorrow.
To think, when I moved out of the foothills of the Appalachians, foreign food was LaChoy chow mein. And maybe Italian.
Miso soup is the easiest thing in the world. Miso paste, boiling water, other seasonings or ingredients like seaweed or scallions or tofu dependent on mood and energy.
Miso soup is hella easy if you buy miso in a squeeze bottle. And yum.
Not much harder if you get a tub of paste, I suppose, but I get paranoid about what utensils are okay to scoop it out. Like, some things will kill it and others might introduce foreign organisms and it's just too much pressure.
OK, digestive system of mine, I gave you custard for breakfast, soup for lunch, soup for dinner, and jell-o for after. No complaining.
All the Buffista food talk has made we want the buffista opinion on a food question: If you can't have both, cookis or cupcake?
Cookies, probably. I like many kinds of cookies and few kinds of cake.
I really like TJs miso ginger broth. I can make like with paste and ginger, but more work than popping a box top.
Manicure, pet sitting done. Have unexplained headache. Day off tomorrow.
There's a big Asian grocery a couple of miles from me, I bet they have good stuff.
TJ's miso ginger broth is very tasty.
I'm having blood drawn in the morning for the cholesterol test I keep putting off, so I have to fast, probably after midnight, which is soon in this time zone. I should make a giant sandwich!
...no, really, I am a little hungry, but that's probably because I know I have to fast.
And if I'm REALLY on top of my game tomorrow, I'll actually make it to the Social Security office to get my name legally changed before our 1-year anniversary! (Which is Sunday. I'm a slacker.)
Nuts. It's a 12-hour fast, which means no pre-midnight sandwich. Bah.
So of course now I'm REALLY hungry.
Y'all know my well documented anger issues. Only ever met the one person angrier than me, in point of fact I am close to rage blackout right now over some idiotic blog I read off fb. And it's, it's, we'll, it's not fucking great, I'll tell you what. But it is how it is, so the universe is just going to have to deal with it.
Bummer about the fast, Tep, but at least it's in the morning so you won't have to wait all day?
