The Flavor of Cardiac Arrest

A few funny things I've taken notice of this past week that weren't weighty enough to sustain their own entries:

I found out that Dylan stores his dirty underware under Jordan's crib each morning when he dresses himself. He said that he has "books under his bed, and Jordan doesn't care."

We encourage Dylan to "use his words" when he's angry. He will tell Jordan, "I don't like that!" Jordan's sassy response is: "Gopa."

My cooking skills have gotten better. Dramatically so. I am unashamed to say that I make the best french toast in the world.

My Fettuccini Alfredo needs work. Desperately.

"The Flavor of Love" is my guiltiest pleasure on tv. If you haven't seen the season premiere, don't give me lip about it.

Penn State plays its first game in under one month. I have to find my blue and white face paints soon.

After talking to my neighbors for some timethe other day, they made a nice gesture of weed-waking around our sidewalk while we were out. Apparently they have never seen chives before. I have thousands of chopped chive pieces all over my side porch. I felt like eating baked potatoes all day.

Herbs? Bah. I'm sticking to flowers until they can find a way to grow cheese and sour cream.

My newest addiction is "Project Runway". I become paralyzed and cannot get off the couch when it's on.

Gather up all those chive pieces ...rinse ...dry in a low oven (at "warm")until crispy, then you can rehydrate them later OR use them dried in recipes. I'm growing garlic chives which are not doing so well.

We are addicted to reruns of the Amazing Race on the gameshow network and forensic files and darts..lol

Can I have my french toast with strawberries and whipped cream please?

Indigo- I always forget when Project Runway is on. I end up watching the marathon running of the whole season one day a year.

Sher- Excellent idea with the chives. Unfortunately, I'm not that brilliant, and I have swept the pieces into the yard where they have dried up like old farts in the sun.

Okay, yeah, yeah, you can cook now, but the real important thing, the thing that is TRULY important? Your photo of of Dylan and Jordon. The black and white on the hill. I swear to God, I almost pissed myself when I saw it. Dorothea Lange come back to life. Jesus, Sarah. JESUS!

Not to mention the blue portrait study of baby Elijah Wood. Heh. God, you depress me and inspire me all at the same time.

Jock- the black and white picture is one of my very favorites as well. Your reaction was an absolute riot. And Elijah Wood? Oh my God....he really does look like him in that picture!

The funny thing- my parents called me Miss Bags after Bilbo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings- My mom was reading the books when she was pregnant with me, and when I hatched, I was short and fat like him...

Dare I make the comment about Jordan and Gollum?
