Not feeling too well, but I have to keep eating or it won't be safe to use the stairs.

Yes, and somewhere around here there is a thread with bread recipes and tips! You will be SO happy if you start making your own bread, trust me.
Good tips, I'm feeling bread inspired and kneading sounds fun! Patience is not a virtue I extol, but if it is just waiting for it to rise I'm sure I can entertain myself meantime...
Found! http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/4... Sounds like BunWat's recipe has been a success, need to add yeast to my shopping list

I had a ham sandwich and a choco chip cookie.
We had some people over for dinner & had the BBQ going. Steaks (the kids got hot dogs), potatoes, grilled asparagus. Very nice. Chocolate covered strawberries for dessert.Did I mention the wine was flowing freely?
I made a nice Green Bean salad (warm) with bacon, shallots and a lemon/olive oil vinaigrette. I used some slender fresh green beans. My late mother in law used to make a simlar salad, except with canned green beans.

Cyn, I like my green bean salad cold with tomatoes and Italian dressing and either feta or mozzarella.
Crayfish in aspic, vol-au-vent, calf's tongue and currants in Madeira, chartreuse of pigeon, mousseline of artichokes, Nesselrode pudding.

Lamprey à la Rabelais, oysters Rockefeller, beef Stroganoff, fillets of plover, pears Wanamaker.

Last night I tried the grain Amaranth for the first time. Tasty. Added some baby broccoli florets and some wilted kale. It must be very high in fiber.
I think I made amaranth once and wasn't crazy about it. I can't remember why, though. Probably my bad cooking skills more than the grain itself.

I'm starving but I definitely don't feel like cooking. Maybe takeout, followed by something sugary. I'm hungry. So hungry.
