I have a bit of a guest recipe tonight—I conned my sister into eating supper, with the bribe that I'd feature her here, and put a link to her deviantArt.
Here is the cut-and-paste version of what she said: "scrambled eggs (obviosly) it has:4 eggs,a teaspoon of chopped ginger,1 red bell pepper,! slice of gouda cheese&franks hot sauce i really felt like spicy food tonight lol XD"
For those of you who, like me, have difficulty reading that, I'll work at translating.
4 eggs
1 tsp chopped fresh ginger
1 red bell pepper (seeded)
1 slice gouda
hot sauce to taste
Scramble all ingredients together in a pan, cook through. Serve. She says it serves 1-2, depending on hunger!

Abort! Abort!
I was going to do this big ol' rant about religion indoctrinating kids young, and how that's Hitler-esc, and even provid examples…but instead, I'm going to bed. Ahhhh, sleep!

So excited for my course tomorrow…! Now I need ot pack my bag and get some sleep, though…. Wish me luck!
Guilty As Charged
So I didn't get a post out last night…I was watching more White Collar. It's soooooo good, and I'm about half way through the third season…when season four comes out, I'm going to be thrilled! It's so layered…wow. I definitely recommend it!

Drizzle Dilemma
So today was pretty normal, and I was going to put a recipe up—but something better happened. (And the turnout was a bit of a flop, to be honest.)
I was at work, like usual, except I got called in half an hour early—1500 instead of 1530. I realized today I've lost near any touch I ever had with pre-schoolers. I have no idea how to work with them after spending nine months with school-aged kids. Though there is a lot of gray areas, especially for certain kids, the atmosphere is different. I miss it.
Anyway, my own room was hectic today, with over a dozen kids for almost the whole time. When we usually drop down to about eight or seven, we still had eleven. In a hot room. With some very strong personalities. So, we ignored the overcast sky, and went outside. Mega relief!!
I was so glad to be out of the room, I let my crazy show and smiled up at the rain when it came down (barely!) for a quick shower. No harm done, yes?It's spring, there was brief rain, it's beautiful. I love the rain on my face and in my har—it goes a little curly. Very much appreciated.
Anyway, after the rain stops, we see a parent coming to get kids, and walk over to our sign-out sheets.
The whole clipboard—receipts, accident reports, this and next week's sign in/out sheets…they're all wet and soggy.
Then me, being the seamstress and superheros I am…walk into the laundry room, and pull out…our craft iron!!
Don't laugh so hard, it works! Fifteen minutes later, after the dinosaur heated up, I was proudly wiping off the clipboard, replacing the pens, and re-assembling our weekly paperwork.
May I say…awwwwwwwwwww yeah! I normally wouldn't do this, but…like a BOSS!

I love practical joking. That's random, I know, but for a person or two it wouldn't be. Hee-hee.

Pesto Parm Pasta
Oh, how I love alliteration! Pesto-Parm-Pasta. Mmmm, sound good simply saying it!
Another picture-less recipe, but it's what I've got. This is what my lunch is for the next few days—I bought five re-useable containers to use for lunches/ to-go suppers, so this is one of my first pre-made sets.

Spaghetti Bean-olegnes
Well, I promised this recipe…so here goes. It's approximate, like all mine really are, but this is my best guess as to what went in.
Sadly, no photos…all of this is either eaten by now, or congealing in a fridge, waiting for me to take it as a to-go meal. Yay, leftovers!

I promised my cousin I'd post a recipe tonight…instead, I'm postponing it. It'll be up tomorrow!

Cent-est
So I realize this is my hundredth post…and I thought I ought to do something to celebrate it. So, today's post will be a recipe…and a contest. The SixAwesomeCanadians member who can come up with the best name for said recipe will get the power to have me write a post about whatever they choose.
Ready?
Here goes!

Shower Kitty
I don't really know what to say tonight…oh! I remember. This happened this morning, and I thought it was funny enough to share…though now, X hours later, I'm not as sure.
When I was getting ready for work this morning (I did 0730h-1745h today!), the cat came into the bathroom with me, which was fine. No big deal, it's sort of become our time—he crawls on my back while I brush my teeth. Anyway, when I went into the shower, instead of putting him out and listening to the whine, I closed the door with him inside.
Partway through, I open the curtain to check on him (he's had a habit of pooping in…unwelcome…place), he poked his head in. Followed by his whole body. Unfortunately for potential YouTube watchers everywhere, I didn't have a camera, and he left the stall before I turned the water back on. No pitifully soaking wet kitty today…!
I thought it was funny. I was also very tired at the time. Maybe my judgement was impaired.
What's the funniest thing you've experienced…that turned out not to be funny at all?

Filing
I got all my information for the Family File ready today, now all that's left is my mother's portion and the doctor. I'm getting so exited!! I've never answered so many questions about myself in a row!
Another filing matter…I really need to do my taxes this weekend…!

I don't really know what to say tonight…I'm watching more White Collar, I'm listening to more DJ Earworm (Stairway To Bootleg Heaven is so awesome!) and eating more crappy food.
A friend of mine has been in and out of the hospital for the last little while, and it now looks as if things will be getting better. I'm so grateful for that…I've been worried. Here's to complete recoveries!

Finish Line
I'm almost done the shirt I'm working on for a friend of mine—it's going to be so cool! I meant to take pictures, but forgot until about five seconds ago. I think it'll look good on her, though….

Criminally Good
So I've started watching White Collar again…I have to say, I like it more than…waitforit…The Big Bang Theory. I've been slowly chewing my way through that, but White Collar is so much more…. I guess I have a thing for crime shows. (CSI, CSI NY, Bones, Crossing Jordan, et cetera….) Speaking of Crossing Jordan, there's a show I should re-watch! I used to watch it every morning before work…hmm. Maybe I'll look into that after I'm done White Collar's four seasons.
Cool!
What's your favourite type of TV show to watch…?

The Lorax
I watched The Lorax today…wow. For a 'children's' movie, there is so much for adults! The standard bits of mature humour thrown in for us to chuckle at, but the political, environmental, moral views…wow. It's like a spruced up Aesop's fable for the short attention spans of today!
Can you tell I loved it?
What's your favourite children/hidden adult film?

Hectic
No post last night, but that is due to another maga-essay session. I had to rework a lot of it, and still didn't have the zinger conclusion I wanted. Lovely. I also have a Math exam to finish today, so I'll study that during my spare block, before I leave.
Big news: I got an interview call from a bursary I applied to, so the interview is today (during said spare block…). Another busy, busy, busy day!

Dead Or Alive
So I know I've crawled under a rock these last few days, but there is a good reason! While I was writing a grand total of zero words here, I've written about two thousand five hundred for my English class.
Twenty-five hundred.
2500.
I'm so tired…I was up until 0000h yesterday writing, and then 0200h this morning. Two major papers, two days…one class.
After this is done, and I finish my tomato-eggs, I'm going to read over my Math notes for the unit exam tomorrow, and go the fuck to sleep.
What's your one-track-mind telling you today?

That was almost literally my head hitting the keyboard in exhaustion. Late-nighter for english paper? Plus chest pains? I'm about to type words I wouldn't usually use on the internet…!
