Bake free

I heard good things. I read good things. Though they didn't come out looking so great, they were pretty darn delicious. Jello no bake cheesecake- I don't know how you do it but I do believe this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

enjoy the moment

So much time, so little to do. Wait. Reverse that.

What a busy, busy week. I've been feeling overwhelmed to tears but am slowly beginning to organize my thoughts one-by-one again. No more time to waste wallowing, there is shopping to be done, songs to be sung, company to be enjoyed, items to be returned, presents to wrap, food to be devoured and smiles to be shared. I would like to practice my presentation, but secretly want to read (love in the time of cholera because of its presence in serendipity), but will actually be falling asleep in 30 seconds because my electric blanket has that effect on me.

May I not worry about the future and enjoy the moment that is now. Thank you God for preparing a home for me with people who bake small samples of heaven.

Xmas is coming

 A day of Christmas songs on the radio/pandora. A night of Christmas movies and Christmas decoration-making and some late night frying creations. Christmas caroling with some elderly folks next week. Christmas is on its way.

Some of the roommates are out of town.
To surprise them when they come back we made stockings for each roommate.

iLikeProjects - Stockings
level: easier than pie, cost: $, time: <10min, kid-friendly
Materials: non-furry stockings, sticker felt pieces, sticker rhinestones
Paste away. Hot glue whatever doesn't stick so well.

Gross.

That is how I feel right now.

I ate unagi with fried rice for dinner. I should have been content. But I looked over at Franz's chicken pot pie and my stomach was jealous. It should have been full. But It wanted chicken pot pie. Not Franz's healthy looking chicken pot pie. I am back in America. And It wanted to go to the Home of the Colonel.

So I ventured out to KFC to pick up dinner #2. This isn't the pot pie. But its buttery goodness may also be contributing to my current sluggishness. Perhaps tomorrow I will attempt to eat more green. One time for a school project we were told to check if the nutritional facts were available at our favorite fast food joint, eat something and comment on what we ate. I picked Popeyes. I asked the man at the counter for the nutritional facts. He told me not to ask. I considered his request, rejected it and asked again. He pulled out a wrinkled, greased up pieces of paper that probably contained more oil than fiber from under a binder and handed it to me. I have not eaten there since. I'm pretty sure KFC isn't much better. But ignorance is bliss today.

Have you seen the Medicinal Chicken episode of SP? If you have, you probably know what I'm thinking. If you do not know what I am talking about, no worries.

You know I blame this whole KFC episode on the fact that I wasn't allowed to watch Glee tonight.
Jbear is studying for a test and Glee would be a distraction. Apparently, so is the Christmas special of Alf. Remember Alf? He's now on Hulu.

I am considered a food-centric blog. Posts like this wouldn't end up on it. I'm still in the idea incubation period, I hope to have the whole thing hatched by new years. Input and ideas would be greatly appreciated.
