Ive had extensions before.......
I have to have at least 4 inches at the crown to get them again. Not sure....there are so many options now. Clip in hair and no pain. The real extensions trash your hair. I hair to my butt years ago. Everyone thought I looked like Stevie Nicks!!! False eyelashes......I dont even know how to get those on....Ive tried but I keep getting them on my nose!!! |

Dear diary, I didn't eat all day saturday and was hungry. I was garage saleing on friday and bought a mint electric wok for a dollar. I'm quite the cook. I have two other woks- one lightweight teflon for steamed veggies and one hundred year old hand pounded from viet nam when I was there in 87. I was quite anxious to try my new wok.
|
|
|
|
So I went through my cupboards and decided to use up some old stuff. Old cans of bamboo shoots, and peppers, and sunflower seeds, and shaved walnuts, and whatnot, and spices. I went grocery shopping. I bought 4 pounds of local chicken breasts, fresh locally grown pea pods, bean sprouts, water chestnuts, water onions, and water straw mushrooms. I diced the chicken fine. And fired up the wok. Being electric it is temperature sensitive turning itself on and off to keep correct temperature. I used extra virgin olive oil to season.

I realized I was making way too much food from the getgo. Was hoping to have guests but alas- many leftovers. That's ok. Snack all weekend. As the chicken started cooking I added 2 ounces of cream sherry and one ounce bacardi 151 rum to the 3.3 pounds of chicken. I didn't want szechuan chicken but wanted it semi flavorful so I selected my spices accordingly. I went light on curry and garam marsala. I bought a spice grinder today and took many of my old spices and ground them up for a custom mix. Oregano, lemon pepper, summer savory, foengreek seed, rosemary, fennel, bay leaves, parsley flakes, celery flakes, coriander, heavy mustard seed, sesame seed, and white and green onion. Ground into powder I used a good ounce of spice into the 3.3 pounds of chicken. One ounce soy, and 2 ounces worchestire. I then added 4 ounces sunflower seeds and shaved walnuts. And another 2 ounces of cream sherry as the chicken cooked.

|
I then added 2 ounces minced sweet cherry peppers and 2 ounces pickled onions. And one ounce artichoke hearts. And I let it cook thoroughly until completely done on low heat. In the meantime I made thai sticky rice with milk and sugar. When the chicken was done I added one ounce pea pods, 4 ounces bamboo shoots, 2 ounces water chestnuts, 5 ounces water mushrooms, and 3 ounces bean sprouts. I continually stirred well till pea pods were crisp and the water chestnuts done- approximately 9 minutes. Then I served myself one very fine meal.

And the whole time I was thinking about gypsy.

|
|
sound like quite the cook I would have made chicken eggrolls with all that chicken
|
|
|
|
I figured I had enough on my hands without making eggrolls. I really didn't feel like shredding chicken and cabbage. Cleaning and cutting up the chicken and pea pods and grinding spice was enough work.

Moof......did you know that everytime I flush my toilet......all the water goes straight down to california..... And did YOU know that moose peeniz is considered a delicacy in Canada? Then again, you've probably had your share of that, huh. |

I just had my szechuan lite chicken again. Made a mixed rice to go with it for lunch.
|
|
|
|
And now I'm packing gear for band practice over at the mansion. That should be interesting.
|
|
|
|
I hate lumping heavy gear. And I gotta buy 9 volt batteries for my korg tuner and crybaby pedal. They both went dead at the same time.

And austin wants to borrow my marshall bluesbreaker and my line 6 pod and an A/B switch so he doesn't have to set amp settings.
