comfort food?

My belly wasn't feeling good yesterday.

So my solution was to try different comfort type foods. I started off with some scrambled eggs as can be seen below. I just mixed 5 eggs, a few ounces of milk, and a pinch of sugar together and plopped them in a pan. About 2 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese was added just before the eggs were finished as well as a little salt. I like my scrambled eggs moist but with no wet parts. I understand many people eat them partially wet. Ewwww!

Up there on the left is what I had late at night while watching the end of a Braves game. Peanut butter and jelly-- but on a flour tortilla instead of bread. You can load more jelly that way without it leaking! And of course some sweet ice tea with both snacks.

5, as in FIVE eggs? PB&J on tortilla? Boy, Dave, if you had a bad stomach before this snack run, humm, I am wondering what would really upset it. I am actually jealous because I can't eat eggs anymore and no matter what anyone tells you about eggbeaters being just like eggs....they are not.

Hmmm.... I never thought about putting sugar in my eggs. I will have to try it.

Wet eggs? GAG!

I agree with the egg comment - I hate runny eggs. I actually like them best pretty dry. I hate any food that is the least slimmy!

When I was visiting ABQ in New Mexico, they eat everything on tortillas! They actually eat everything with green chilli too, but I doubt they eat green chilli with PB&J - but you never know!

Was this all you ate all day? I wish I could live on 5 eggs and a PB&J!!

No eggs for me, but the recipe sounded good. What kind of jelly was that on that tortilla? I wouldn't use a tortilla (unless I was breadless and desperate) as I need the bread to absorb some of that jelly -- I need the jelly to get the peanut butter down, but really find jelly pretty icky.

I hope you are feeling better -- and comforted!

Wet eggs are gross. Sugar in them? no...I have enough sugar additions than to add another. But they look good!

Nitroflex at home

Image
I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h...

ankle update

S ince a few people object to seeing my feet --poor misdirected souls--I have the two pictures below hidden behind links. Behold them at your own risk! *evil laugh* Actually they're not scary though the first one is a little colorful. T he first picture shows my ankle and foot from the side, as labeled. You can see a lot of general edema of the entire foot. There's also a good bit of discoloration of the ankle area and to a lesser degree the top of the foot all the way down to the toes. The side view is a lot worse in this regard than the top view. T he second picture shows the two feet from the top so you can compare the somewhat normal looking right foot to the injured left foot. There's not much abnormal color on this view but you can see the "sausage like" swelling of the left foot. It's this swelling that is causing my main problem--I can't get the foot into my boots and I need the boots to support the ankle. Damn Catch-22. Side view, looking inward ...

Ostrich poop found here

Image
I took these pictures last Fall while visiting the NC Zoo. On the left you can see what appears to be a nice polite ostrich just wandering around. This impression soon turns out to be false when her dowdy tail feathers raise up and reveal a puckered anus. Ewwww! If you look carefully, you can see that she's made a deposit on the ground. More ewwww! Feel free to click on the image to make them bigger. Details can make all the difference in these shots. In other matters, aren't those really bony legs they have? And couldn't they have a little more color?
