Now if the question were, "What is your favorite spicy dish?"   the answer would of course, have to be Jose Simbulan himself.

On my 21st birthday the DP - we had known each other eight months and were both starving students - gave me a camel-colored sweater. I wore it the next day to class, and Vincent Botticelli, who sat next to me and knew all about such things (I didn't), blurted out midway through the lecture, "Cashmere!"

Chili relleno and menudo are my favorite Mexican foods.

I am pretty sure my 21st birthday involved copious amounts of hard liquor...but I don't recall for sure.


Isn't menudo that boy group?

Have you planned where you will be spending your 21st TCB?

If you know the story, Lupe Velez was not such a spicy dish at the very end.

Can I ask one of the HHW cooking experts a question.

If you were baking really think looking pork chops, how long would you put them in the oven for?

I think I put regular ones in for an hour.

But these ones seem much, much thinner.

Anybody?

I can't even qualify for the 21st birthday of my 21st birthday!

Sorry, JMK, you were too quick for me.

So a monk and a cowboy walked into a Denny's. I was there.

Last time I jumped out of a cake Marie Antionette lost her head.
She should have asked for Brioche.

All I could hear of their conversation was the monk telling the cowboy about one of his former students who is now an insurance agent or something like that.

And this isn't a joke. There's nothing funny about insurance agents.  :P

OK...

Laundry - check!
Brunch - check!  -Irish oatmeal with cherries (frozen, Trader Joe's - I need to stock up on blueberries again, but the cherries were good.
Kitchen - check!  -Emptied the dishwasher, washed me dishes, wiped down the counters
Dog - check! -Thankfully, since it's very cold outside, Iki hasn't been wandering about like he usually does when he needs to be let out.  He just does his dooty, and he comes right back in.

Now I just need to make my bed - I washed the sheets, and take down the Christmas tree.  Then... Hmmm...

Laters...

And I've just been apprised of the reason for Noel's errant and truantness and I find the reason for it irksome and the absence a bit silly in lieu of the reason.  We need to all be careful that sometimes "tone" doesn't become offensive.  Disagreements are, of course, fine and welcome - that's what makes the world go around.  What separates us from others is "tone" and good-fellowship.

And my advice is if someone feels under attack or if "tone" is in question, call the person responsible on it.  Or drop me a note.  We have too too much fun here to let these little occasional weirdnesses detract from our special haineshisway.com experience.

I shall now experience a sticky bun.

Yesterday I put some new toner into the printer, but today the printing was really messy, so I investigated. The black powder had pretty much all seeped out - everywhere (great for my sore throat). The more I tried cleaning up, the more I got coated in the stuff - a la Teri Hatcher in last night's Desperate Housewives.

Christmas tree - check!  -A little sad, actually.  But since it was a little tree, it didn't take too long to put it away.  I basically just had to squish it back into it's box after taking the ornaments off.

Now to bundle up a little bit and head outside to replace the brake light that I noticed was out two days ago.

Exciting, huh?

Betsy and I once hosted two Tibetan monks at our home.   They were part of a travelling group of monks who could chant polyphonically with just one voice (no joke).  Put 20 of them together and it was quite the aural experience.  Well, anyway, there was an older monk and a younger, novice monk who I believe went by the name Grasshopper (OK, that's a joke).  We had two bedrooms for them, and the older monk immediately glommed onto the bigger one.  We thought that perhaps he wanted it for the space, but when we went back to check on him a little later, he and the younger monk were happily ensconced in front of the television watching baseball.  "There goes 20,000 years of Eastern culture down the drain," I commented to Betsy as we snuck back to our bedroom.

Vixmom sure glad your 21st was much better than your 20th birthday.  Hershey Park is a fun place.

Another great story from Panni.  I’m sure Rachel will appreciate your birthday story as well.  Have fun tonight.  

Jay I don’t believe I have ever had a Goldstein’s bagel.  Do they make good egg ones?

JMK-funny Monk story.

And here's something I learned last night. DC (Dear Cat), whose name has been Tumbly ever since he was three months old, answers to the name Lloyd. Can anyone explain that?

Sandra, that is just plain funny!! ;D

And speaking of bagels (which I wasn't, but others were), I have some non-New-York bagels from Costco.  They're pretty good...in my very limited bagel-experienced opinion.  I don't know if this is normal for bagels, but I had frozen them to preserve them (I bought too many) and to defrost them, I just stuck them in the fridge in a Ziploc bag.  After taking them out of the fridge, they were still quite good!  No frozen bread quality to them.  And they toast  quite well, too.  Very nice. ;D

My favorite Mexican restaurants are chain restaurants.  I don't think I've ever been to a truly authentic Mexican restaurant.  That said, I am partial to Taco Del Mar (double stamp Monday today!), El Sarape, Plasa Jalisco and the Mayan.  I usually get enchiladas or buritos (with ground beef...not shredded) with rice and beans.  Pretty standard, but I just really like them. ;D

It's been raining all day today!  And it's quite windy.  I have to go to Costco to get some croissants for a ham sandwich breakfast fundraiser at work tomorrow.  And since I have to take a shower first, I must leave HHW now.  Have a good day, all!

The rain is pouring down around these here parts.  Visibility on the roads was impossible.

Well, my search for a new job just became more urgent.  My employers informed me this afternoon that they are taking a two week vacation to Belize again this Februrary.  This means that even if I manage to only take one week off after surgery, I'll still be missing three weeks of work out of the next six.  This is NOT good financially.  I really REALLY need to find something new to go to after surgery...
