No Wig, No Glasses - Tada

Ah, remember back in the days when detectives (and Wonder Woman), only needed to change their hair and wear glasses as a disguise? Yep, yep. Nothing beats that.

Now for the prizes. Broken candy canes to ALL who played. And to Stacy, Debra, Alex,  Bethany and Lori who were the closest (Stacy even closer) I award each of you a bonus box of peppermint flavoured toe jam and ear wax. Goes great mixed in hot chocolate or tea. For some reason, it curdles in coffee. No one knows why?

The DVD collection was Charlie's Angels and Jill was the Who Am I?

Who Am I? (bad guy quiz cont.)

Here's a hint to the earlier Bad Guy Quiz. The person below is trying to locate the bad guy but must do so in disguise.  Unless, I watched two episodes in one day, in that case, she's not trying to catch THAT bad guy, but she's from the same collection, and this is my blog, so close enough.

Anyway, who is she? If you know, then you'll know the DVD collection that said bad guy, came from. Players walk away with several broken candy canes and a bag of ear wax.

In other news, just put the lamb on. Such a simple dish and oh my word, delicious. Then Tim has game tonight and I will hide away in the movie room watching a DVD. Maybe even do a little hand-quilting.

Wishing you all a yummy night :-)

Bad Guy Quiz

Welcome to my first ever, Bad Guy Quiz. Or at least, I think this is my first one. Who knows? Not me. Anyway, tell us what DVD collection this bad guy comes from and win something useless and gross.

In other news, yesterday, I made 250 vanilla pizzelles for Tim's job because today is their goody day.  And not a single allergic reaction (no throat closing, no rash). I still won't take a chance and eat any but that's okay with me. I'm just thrilled to be making them again.

And that my lovely Boogerbutts about concludes this post. I just started the bedding as it looks like another beautiful spring day. Perfect for hanging sheets and blankets outside.

Cheers and boogie boogie.

Hot Dog - I Win

Hey Guys. Yesterday was a success. Hot dog, I win.

Today, I'm crankin' the Christmas music as I boogie my way through the afternoon, gutting the bake boxes and redefining my storage area in the lab.

Muwhahaha ....

Wish Me Luck - I'm Going In

I've been awake since five this morning, just staring at the ceiling. So I figured, eh, might as well get cracking on today's project which includes making pizzelles. Usually, I make them year-round, all the flippin' time. But because of recent health issues and the fact that melted butter (this time last year anyway), sent my skin into rash and itching, I haven't made any.

For Tim's job next week, they have Goody Day and I am the pizzelle maker. Which brings me to today, when I test if I can handle melted butter or not. Health-wise, much has improved over the last year. Even when sprinkled with setbacks, overgrowth, infections and other buggers, on the whole -- many great leaps forward.

For instance, I no longer have chronic spinal issues. After years of being bent like a pretzel (born that way), I now rarely hurt. I haven't had a problem walking in forever (knock on a skeleton's skull), and I can eat more than two bites of food each meal. Which is a bonus because with all the cooking and baking, it's a relief to eat my foods again.

But I digress. And I just heard Frankenberry's alarm go off. Gonna whisk up a batch of fresh palacsintas (Hungarian pancakes), for breakfast and then get crackin' on a small test batch of pizzelles to see if I pass the melted butter test.

Wish me luck, I'm going in.

Magic in a Bowl

We missed our Sunday roast (bird with fixins), so the plan was to do it tonight, but I changed my mind. I'll go with more soup for me and maybe chicken chunked salad with potatoes for Frankenberry.

Yesterday, Jan asked what ingredients were in my soup and basically, I start with a homemade stock or broth (this week it's green veggie broth), then I chuck in fresh ginger, garlic and whatever vedge I have have. But that's how soups are for me. No set ingredients list. No rules. Just chuck it in, taste and voila. Magic in a bowl.

So, whatcha eating today? Is it yummy? Do tell. Do tell.

Super Secret Project

Today was a full day.  Lots of writing, cooking and I worked on my super secret project -- which aside from health, is also part of the reason I was off the grid last week.  More on that super secret project later in the New Year because as of right now, I'm done with my walk and headed to the showers.  I like these kinds of days.  Done by 2:30 PM.  Ready to shower and get into my jams.

Not too shabby.

Cavemen Club

I'm doing a post to say howdy, as Tim waits for his meat-filled sub. He's part of the Cavemen Club, here at Wegmans.  Me, not so much. But I did recently make lamb at home twice and LOVED it.

Anyway, health took a leap forward and then quickly mocked me with a few stumbles back. That's the way of things, I suppose. Then I had a few house projects that needed my full attention.  Anyway, I'm back. Hope you're all well. Have a great rest of your night and I'll catch ya'll again soon.

PS: Here's a shot of my supper, as I wait for Frankenberry.  Eating out isn't an option for me, so I picked through the bulk bins. The dried, organic mango is heaven.

Heaven, I say, heaven.
