Your obituary won't mention you have a huge house and a plasma t.v.

My Grandma used to say "You only get so many words when you're born and once you've used them up...that's it."

She said the same thing about steps too.

"Once they're gone you don't get anymore."

Words and steps, I think she meant that they are the measure of a life.

She was a cool lady.





p.s. and in those last few moments they won't occur to you either.

You are going to need to bake a lot more cookies, Madame Elena. The dark side is where it's at. Give Ergoproxy at least 3 to get her inducted. Did Amyranth eat her cookies?

Hmm, I ventured into the past a bit and didn't like what I was seeing. It's scary back there.

Cookies? :) I heart cookies.

Now what starts with the letter "C"?
"Cookie" starts with "C"!
Let's think of other things that starts with "C"!
Uh. . .Uh. . . Who cares about da other things?!


"C" is for Cookie that's good enough for me,
"C" is for cookie that's good enough for me,
"C" is for cookie that's good enough for me,
Oh! cookie, cookie, cookie starts with "C"!

Hey, You know what? A round cookie with one bite out of it looks like a "C"
A round donut with one bite out of it also looks like a "C" but it is not as good as a cookie
Oh, and the moon sometimes looks like a "C" but you can't eat that
So...

Cookie Cookie Cookie Starts with "C"

Salmon is easy peasy Amy, just don't overcook it. You can dooo it!! And Ginger rice as a side sounds awesome. I made some coconut rice last week that was might tasty.

Anonymous said...

Oh I do like you Fine and Dandy you are deliciously evil

I am, Madame Elena. Don't forget how sinful I am too. I'm doubly delicious and sinful with wine.
Thanks to Amyranth and her 12 bottles, we should be able to break at least half of the commandments and commit all 7 deadly sins. Who's with me? Think about it while I go soften the cream cheese for the cheese cakes.

ergoproxy said...

you have a whole side of salmon?
goodness, are you cooking all of it?

if not slice it into portions and wrap and freeze the rest

and cook it skin side down first until it changes colour about 1/3 the way up the side, then turn it over and do the same then take it off the heat and erst it

Oooh. Anon. Coconut Rice.

Amy, it was good but it didn't cook in my rice cooker very well. I had to finish it up in the microwave and that was a pain. It had a very mild coconut taste though.

ergoproxy said...

Oh can I do sloth?

I am really good at it

Amyranth said...

I have a rice cooker that doesn't cook worth a damn. It boils the rice, and spits the gluten everywhere.

Then, when it looks like it's burning to the bottom of the pot and you taste it, it's slimy on the outside and crunchy on the inside.

I wish I could adjust the cooker, but it's "switch on, and cook".

Hi TJ, Ergo, amy, elena, anons. Night k

TJ, I got to the venue late so I missed most of the bands I wanted to see :(

My opinion, the band of the day was machine head, hands down. When they performed their first song, I knew right away that if they have their own tour, I'll be going. They were awesome live and I got splashed with some of the alcohol they were throwing. I had a good time, and the weather was perfect. Cool and breezy :)

I posted a short review on my blog if anyone is interested in reading it. Amy, I'm gonna go read your warped tour blog too.

Right now my legs are tired and I'm full with margueritas, but I'm good.

We have gluttony covered with all these evil cookies and wine. I will move on to "lust" now and save "wrath" for tomorrow. I'll get around to the other 4 later this week. I will be "coveting" my neighbor's ass while lusting. I forget which commandment that is that I'll be breaking.

Anonymous said...

I have a similar rice cooker with no settings. It can cook run of the mill white rice with no problem and that's it. Not brown, doesn't do a very good job on sushi rice, and woe unto you if you try to use a liquid other than water. It frustrates my culinary objectives.

Hi J, how are you and L? *hugs*

Original Punk J said...

Heya Amy, count me in on most of that--except the Commandments, b/c according to some, I've broken all of them a few times over.

L's doing much better, she did feel really tired today (her "normal" tired, though) but the diverticulitis has calmed itself.

I was doing fine until a couple hours ago. I had another argument with my mom on the phone. Doesn't matter what I tell her, nothing sinks in. The implications are that I'm stupid, have bad taste in friends, can't balance my own checkbook, spend too much money on "other things" (whatever those are) when I don't have enough to pay all the bills.

So right now I'm pretty well drained of happiness and hope. How are you? :I

Amyranth said...

My rice cooker can't even do white rice. I'm actually pretty sure it could fuck up Minute Rice.

So I just kept trying and I've finally figured out a way to do it in the pot. Turns out pretty decent too, but I have to start it a half hour before the actual meal.

Amyranth said...

*puts up the scoreboard*

2 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery;

3 Do not have any other gods before me.

4 You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me,

6 but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments.

7 You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not acquit anyone who misuses his name.

8 Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy.

9 For six days you shall labour and do all your work.

10 But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns.

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it.

12 Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

13 You shall not murder.

14 You shall not commit adultery.

15 You shall not steal.

16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.

17 You shall not covet your neighbour’s house; you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.

Part II

Lust
Gluttony
Greed
Sloth
Envy
Wrath
Pride

Okay! Everyone get out your scorecards!

ergoproxy said...

ok I googled and apparently :

Medieval church leaders (e.g., Thomas Aquinas) took a more expansive view of gluttony,[3] arguing that it could also include an obsessive anticipation of meals, and the constant eating of delicacies and excessively costly foods.[4] He went so far as to prepare a list of six ways to commit gluttony, including:

* Praepropere - eating too soon
* Laute - eating too expensively
* Nimis - eating too much
* Ardenter - eating too eagerly
* Studiose - eating too daintily
* Forente - eating too fervently



so how exactly did one eat?

TJ, I know which sailor moon song you're talking about. I have the soundtrack somewhere in my garage *smiles sheepishly*

I've always been partial to "Who Do You Think You Are" just for the danceability.

toujours said...

oh really bc? :D

toujours,sailor moon? I know that series but i dont think the song

the song is one off the english language soundtrack. i think it was only used once or twice in the dubbed anime?

it's a nice, romantic, optimistic song. :)

ergoproxy said...

I have heaps of cassettes, and vinyl

I have the Bellestars, do you remember the clapping song?

and Toto Coelo with I Eat Cannibals

I used to tape heaps of songs off the radio too, I stillhave a lot of the cassettes
Video Killed the Radio Star - that one won me a drink at a nightclub
and Safety Dance by Men Without Hats won me an album off the radio

I can probably find it here in a second if anyone's really that curious.

... I'm just dancing to "Spice up your life"...

Andrea said...

Hello Ergo!

I also like the cute dancing in "Stop". When I was a camp counselor, my campers and I had the whole routine worked out, but none of us were brave enough to lip sync it for the talent show. :)

no one would believe i listen to classical music occasionally when the mood strikes me.

Andrea said...

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine

ergoproxy said...

I love the theme song for Red Dwarf

It's cold outside
there's no sign of atmosphere
I'm all alone
More or less
let me fly
far away from here
fun fun fun
in the sun suns sun

I want to lie
shipwrecked and comatose
sipping fresh
mango juice
goldfish shoals
nibbling at my toes
fun fun fun
in the sun sun sun

Oh It's a New Day.

ergoproxy said...

anon I listen to classical at times
My father listened to it when I was a child, he does a classical music radio show now.
My brother is a jazz muso so I also like Miles Davis and such, though my absolute favourite jazz standard is Birdland
He made me a cd for my birthday with about 9 versions of it, and his school jazz band when I turned 21 they played for my party and they played it specially after I cut my cake

and I just bought the album of Peter and the Wolf last weekend

Andrea said...

I don't mind at all

ZIGAZIG AH!

Amyranth said...

Teej, if you like that song, I think you'll like this one too. In fact, I think anyone who needs a little boost sometimes would like this one.

The Power of Love. Not Celine Dion's :P

There comes a time,
When you face the toughest of fights,
Searching for a sign,
Lost in the darkest of nights.

The wind blows so cold,
Standing alone,
Before the battle's begun,
But deep in your soul,
The future unfolds,
As bright as the rays of the sun.

You've got to believe,
In the power of love,
You've got to believe,
In the power of love.

Blazing emotions,
there's a light,
that flows from your heart,
it's a chain reaction,
and nothing will keep us apart,

Stand by my side,
there's nothing to hide,
together, we'll fight to the end.

Take hold of my hand,
and you'll understand,
what it truly means to be friends.

You've got to believe,
In the power of love.
You've got to believe,
In the power of love.

It gives meaning to each moment,
It's what our hearts are all made of,
You've got to believe,
In the power of love.

Classical is on right now in my apt. Logan likes to listen to it, well we do too, but it helps him go to sleep. We have Music Choice through our cable co., and there's a channel for "light classical" that Logan loves.

that really does read like an anime song, amyranth!

ergo, Miles davis is awesome. i know Birdland too. you were exposed to good music from a young age which is very good

i bet you liked dexies midnight runners too, Come on eileen.
that isone of my guilty pleasure songs

Amyranth said...

Who doesn't like Come On Eileen?

It's like "Sweet Caroline"!

And Teej, it does, doesn't it! Although I find, translated over, some Japanese songs don't make a whole lot of sense in English.
