Daily Cud Chewing...Daily Cud Chewing... - LiveJournal.comCatching up on TV shows- January 28, 2008 I spent today catching up on all the TV shows I like to watch. I am now all caught up on Project Runway and Desperate Housewives. Project Runway:Rami is so hot. He is everything I find attractive in a man. And for some reason every time I look at Chris I think of interpaneer. I keep thinking, if Chris could sew that would be him on there. :) They should have a reality show for knitting... then we'd see Chris on that!Desperate Housewives:This show is so crazy. I find it so funny and and...http://tooling.livejournal.com/257950.html Food post- January 27, 2008 I have zero experience cooking fish. Tonight I made the most amazing dish. I bought some frozen tilapia fillets and in the past I have always put them on the GF grill and just prepared them that way. Yep... boring. Tonight I decided to attempt to put a crust on them. I took the frozen fillets and dipped them in egg and then shook them around in a bag of cracker crumbs. I then redipped to make sure they were coated well. I then put them in a pan with olive oil and lightly browned them in..http://tooling.livejournal.com/257554.html 4 People, 2 Donkeys, and a Cow Living on One Block...- January 26, 2008 I spent last night catching up on My Life on the D-List (Kathy Griffin's reality show on Bravo). I found how she described Michigan very funny and that is why I titled this journal entry that. I was surprised to hear she made tour stops in Jackson and of all places Benton Harbor. She really isn't reaching her fan base in either of those cities. I really wish I could have seen her when she was in Dearborn. I'll get tickets if she comes back to Michigan this year. I think she's extremely...http://tooling.livejournal.com/257091.html Crazy Church People- January 22, 2008 I cannot embed this so just click on the link!http:www.youtube.comwatchv=c4tg4CftkPwHILARIOUS!http://tooling.livejournal.com/256880.html Dixie Chicks- January 21, 2008 I grew up on country music. I didn't start listening to the rock genre until I was introduced to the grunge music of the 90's. To this day I find it very easy to flow back and forth between the two. I never really noticed the Dixie Chicks were off the radio until I was sitting in the ambulance one day at Medic One and I heard their new single "Not Ready to Make Nice." I was like, I wonder what happened to them So I went home and looked them up and discovered that during one of my breaks...http://tooling.livejournal.com/256497.html Coffee!- January 20, 2008 During my absence from LJ I learned how to do one important thing... MAKE COFFEE. I bought a new coffee maker that was tried and tested by a friend. I bought a coffee grinder and a few pounds of different Caribou Coffee varieties to try. Here's what I bought:Coffeemaker: Cuisinart DCC-1200BWCoffee Grider: Capresso Infinity Conical Burr Grinder Model 560.01Coffee: Caribou Daybreak Blend & Caribou Kenya AAI find that I like the Daybreak Blend better than the Kenya AA. In the description for..http://tooling.livejournal.com/256125.html HFCS is Evil- January 19, 2008 I have made it a point to cut as much HFCS from my diet as possible. Who knew almost all bread has HFCS in it. So I'll pay the extra dollar to buy a loaf of "organic" bread to get rid of it. I guess HFCS is not organic so they can't put it in there. I have also been drinking a lot of soy milk lately. I am totally in love with the Silk Chocolate and Silk Very Vanilla varieties. I like making my protein shakes with them.http://tooling.livejournal.com/255816.html Must reads for 2008- January 18, 2008 A Wolf at the Table: A Memoir by Augusten Burroughs - 29 April, 2008Moscow Rules by Daniel Silva - 22 July, 2008The not yet announced PrestonChild novel featuring Agent Pendergast.Murder in the Rue Chartres by Greg Heren - Released November 2007Richard Preston is supposed to release a book titled Beyond the Hot Zone.

I really miss some of the artists old sounds. I recently reloaded my music into my itunes and I found a ton of songs on my hard drives that I completely forgot about. Speaking of music, I recently bought an iPod touch... I love it. I think I'm going to pay the 20$ and get the just announced upgrades for it. I think they are worth it. Along with new toys I finally got a new cell phone. The HTC Mogul through Sprint.(sorry the...http://tooling.livejournal.com/255324.html Has the roller coaster stopped- January 11, 2008 Apology: My life has been sucking really bad lately so I haven't been writing as much as I should. I really do want to start journaling again. I just need to sit down and write more often. 2007 ended very turbulently. There were some very good things that happened and some very bad things that happened.I guess I can work my way forward from November until this point. I guess it all started off in November when I hit a deer with my car. According to one estimate it will cost around 2700$..http://tooling.livejournal.com/255178.html |
