Happy Tiesday - - - sorry Ash and Becky -  hotty lochte sucks and someone give phelps a joint so he can get his act together--welcome to the Wheaties line of Chanpions Missy Franklin--- she will only get stronger as she gets older if she doesnt succumb to the power of the "P" - 2 silvers in synchro diving and are Walsh/Trainor the unheralded dynasty??? That's all for now

So I got a job offer yesterday, more hours a week, but less money an hour. It is still in the restaurant industry, which I am working to get out of. Should I stay where I am, till I find something new, or should I leave? I was playing with some stuffed burger recipes, this is the "chick" burger. It is stuffed with roasted apples, brie cheese, topped with caramelized onions, fresh baby spinach, and a balsamic glaze, and placed on a cibatta bun.

Oh hi, I didn't see you there.

It's Olympic recap time!!!
Congrats to Colorado girl Missy Franklin on her first individual gold medal.
Say what you will about Ryan Lochte, but brother has zero personality
Womens' Beach Volleyball at night in wetsuits is as watchable as men's gymnastics.  Speaking of unwatchable, every time Ryan Seacrest pops on, it's my time to change the channel.  I'm waiting for NBC to bring Tim Gunn on to the Sunday night football team now
When does Men's Basketball start?

HAPPY TUESDAY!!!!

What a great freaking day.  First off, the Cubs thumped the Bucs last night 14-4 before moving two players (Reed Johnson and Paul Maholm).  We got a potential STUD in return (Arodys Vizcaino).  So long as he heals from Tommy John Surgery, he'll be a front line starter or dominant closer.  Bow chicka bow wow. 

I started this juicing diet thingamajig today.  Basically I mix up a bunch of fruits and veggies and drink it two times a day instead of eating regular meals.  I have bookoo energy right now.  Woke up at the crack of dawn and went for a run along the lake....it was so nice and peaceful this morning. 




Purchased two new pairs of MJ's last night (Thanks to Dee Rigga making me jelly).  My guy hooked it up though.  He threw in free water proofer, six pairs of socks, and a 25% off coupon for my next purchase. 



Will everyone please STFU about CFA?  Hot damn it's annoying.  Who gives a flying rats a*s if the owner doesn't like gays.  Don't like it?  Don't eat there.  This honky will continue eating there dammit.....once my juicing phase is ova!

This is a funny sign...(I know it's fake so save it, Alain)



Have a great day everyone.  I have to go holla at a client.  Laters....

What have you done with my sister, a**hole?!

HeY----he's got one GOLD, a team silver ----sure he blew the lead but the guy chasing him was a badass. He still has 4 more opportunities to reach gold----------2 of which are his best events. Chill. As for Phelps, he's FINE. Dude can't stay on top forever, and his best events are coming up as well (his split time for the relay was pretty badass, and the 400 IM has got to be one of the hardest events to compete in.....ask any swimmer) He doesn't suck.
--------------------------------

In other news..........................Alcide from True Blood.....Sunday's episode........WOW WOW WOW. The scene is still in my head. lol

My tatt is starting to peel.

The Kings may have to start a Season Ticket waiting list...................what the F? lol My seats are going to be worth the price of gold. Be happy (if you did) you jumped on the bandwagon early. You're welcome. 

Adios Muchachos!

she's a busy girl, I barely see her lately

More hours, less pay... I would just stay where I was until I found something making more... of course, I'm in for the money.

That sandwich doesn't sound good to me.

That reminded me for some reason of this rice stuff I've been making since I was a kid and had the other day. It's rice, ground beef and sausage, sauteed mushrooms and bell pepper, and a scrambled egg all mixed together. I season it with garlic, parsley, and minced onion (cause i can't bite into an onion piece without gagging but I do think the onion flavor is necessary). It's so very good and simple.

Re: CFA - I thought about that. I'll boycott it because I can (it's easy for me to "boycott" fast food), and it's my little way of standing up for what I believe in, but I won't go on and on about it. But I was thinking...even if I didn't want to boycott it out of principle, I don't think I would eat there now anyway. I really really don't want to take a chance that there may be a disgruntled gay man or lesbian in the kitchen...you get what I'm sayin.

Like the 200M was his best and he placed hmmmm---4th? We will see how many Gold's he brings----- let's make a wager- I bet Franklin brings home more gold than Phelps and Lochte combined?

When I saw that Ryan Seacrest was at the Olympics, I broke out with Tourette's.

The president...and he didn't say he doesn't like gays. He doesn't support same-sex marriage WHICH shouldn't have been a shock to anyone considering they are an openly christian based business. I can't get their chicken noodle soup on Sunday because they are closed for church and schtuff, ffs. Someone asked him a question, he answered. I don't agree with it, but I don't agree with my mom either and I still eat her food.

I don't boycott because it's their right to believe in whatever they want, whether I believe in the same ideology or not.  That and I gotta have the spicy deluxe sandwich in my life.  I do however will continue to try and break them whenever I'm there to say "you're welcome" instead of "my pleasure" when I say thank you.  Even when I say thank you 10 times.  They've been trained well. Maybe a little too well

And if I (people in general) started boycotting companies for what their CEO's personally believed, I'd only be patronizing bodegas, food trucks and chicken lady shacks. Phil Knight's (Nike) Paterno eulogy is cringe worthy at this point. Target's CEO? The WholeFoods guy? Pretty much the entire Walton family? The list unfortunately goes on and on. Yeesh.

FWIW, I've never stepped foot in a Wal-Mart.  Not because of anything the Walton's believe, but because Target kicks it a*s.

"I disagree" never has meant "I hate."  This whole Chick-fil-a thing has been blown WAY out of proprotion.  Seriously.  I'm in a same-sex relationship, and all this talk about chick-fil-a has made me want it more.  In fact, Imma go there for lunch today.

Do some TarJay's have a deli? The one I go to is only missing hoagies on demand to achieve some kind of department store nirvana.

go in holding hands and then tweet about it.............#palinit

Super Targets have everything now.  If you're talking about a deli that actually makes serves you up your food, I haven't seen one.  The one I frequent does have a Starbucks with a solid food selection, though.  Their ham and swiss paninis are $$$.

Yeah never thought of that and I get a coffee there every time I go to Target. There's like some pizza hut burger thing in there as well. i need to explore that place a bit more on my next fattie day.

Is anyone else having trouble with Yahoo email?  I keep getting this message.  I've literally clicked Yes 100 times. 

Grrr... glad I'm not the only one at least! I thought my account got hacked into. They better hurry up and fix it, I need access to my mail account for my job.

I use the yahoo small business account for work and it's down completely. Relieved to hear that from you guys. I was about to go into my panic room and assume the fetal position and rock myself to sleep. That's what a panic room is for right? Or did i pay a contractor 35G's to turn a walk-in closet upstairs into something I don't understand?

Mine has more like...movie theater options... corn dogs, popcorn, nachos, but some have pizza huts/starbucks, and I think I have seen a deli (ish) one. I do know that the remodels are now serving alcohol :)

All 4 of the Targets surrounding me sell alcohol.

Yeah. Common over there, but I live in the south.... lil bit slower sometimes. I think it's because they can sell it on sunday now that got them to make a move. lol

The one at Atlantic Station (the closest one to me) has had beer & wine coolers, etc. since I've been down here. i need to hit the Super target one next.

Oh, I thought you meant they were serving alcohol in the fatty fillup stations.  We have booze already too, you snails. 

(thanks, Captain Buzzkill)

People still use Yahoo Mail?

I resent that.  Yahoo made my old man some money back in the day, and in turn, got me a pretty nice ride for college.  I'm a loyal mofo. 

I was just surprised is all. I have an account, but I use it for when I sign up for different things and websites so I don't have to give my real address, so I never check it. It probably gets thousands of spam messages in there.

i dont know what fatty fillup stations are

The things in the corner serving up fair food. 

the "restaurants"? Man, please!! If they were serving cocktails at Target half of my filter (and/or QMZ) posts would be brought to you live from a booth inside of a Target near me!

Are they allowed to sell alcohol on Sunday's?

go in holding hands and then tweet about it.............#palinit

And the problem is? 

Now I want dessert

Whiskey Caramel Marshmallow Bacon Bark

Makes 1 8×8 pan | Preparation: Line pan with parchment or wax paper with a one-inch overhang on each side.

16 oz of semi-sweet chocolate

4 cups of mini marshmallows
¼ cup whiskey
1 cup caramel (recipe follows)
27 Tons of spiced bacon crumble (recipe follows)
Instructions:

1. Place chocolate in a bain marie or in a heat-proof bowl above simmering water. Heat on low until chocolate is melted. Pour half of melted chocolate into parchement-lined pan. Then using an offset spatula, spread chocolate until smooth. Transfer pan to freezer to chill for about 5 minutes or until melted chocolate becomes solid.

2. Place marshmallows in a large saucepan and heat until marshmallows starts to just melt and forms web-like strands when stirred. (See picture). Remove from heat and add in 5 tablespoons of whiskey; stir to combine. Spread marshmallow mixture over solid chocolate layer. (To easily spread the marshmallow to an even layer, spray offset spatula with non-stick spray.)

3. Pour caramel on top of marshmallow layer. Then, using an offset spatula, spread caramel until smooth. Transfer pan to freezer to chill for about 5 minutes or until caramel becomes slightly hardened. Pour remaining half of chocolate over caramel layer and, using an offset spatula, spread chocolate until smooth. Sprinkle and gently press bacon crumble into chocolate, Return fully assembled bark to refrigerator to chill for 20 minutes or until bark becomes solid. Bring bark to almost room temperature before cutting.

Bacon Crumble

27 tons bacon
1/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoon water
1 egg white
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1. Cook bacon and set aside to cool completely. Once cooled, coarsely crumble bacon with hand; set aside and heat oven to 300 degrees F.

2. Place sugar and water in a pot and heat until sugar is dissolved. Toss crumbled bacon in sugar syrup to coat. Pass coated bacon through a strainer to drain excess sugar syrup.

2. Add egg white to a bowl and beat until fluffy and foamy. Add in black pepper and cayenne. Whisk to combine. Add in crumbled bacon and toss to coat.

3. Spread coated, crumbled bacon on a parchment lined bakesheet and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool, then crumble bacon one last time.

Caramel Filling

1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons water
4 tablespoon butter
7 tablespoon heavy cream
Instructions:

Add sugar and water into a saucepan over medium low heat. Stir until sugar has dissolved. Use a wet brush to remove any crystals that form on the side. Once sugar has dissolved increase heat to high. Now and then, using the handle, give the pot a swirl to keep the mixture moving. Do not stir the mixture directly. The mixture will start to bubble after a minute. As the mixture darkens to a medium amber color, approximately 5-7 minutes, add the butter and heavy cream to saucepan. The mixture will bubble wildly. Whisk to combine (bubbles will subside upon cooling). Set aside to cool completely.

Kat's "wig" moment of Zen: Michael Douglas & Matt damon in character as Liberace and his lover for some bioflick. I haven't been this excited for a movie since I saw the trailer for Gangs of New York prominently featuring ginormous! turn of the century hats.

200M was never his best event......and I'm not waging. I want them all to kick ass. 

USA USA USA

As for the chicken thing....................freedom of speech works both ways. There was an article written in the Huffington Post that was a nice read. .....explained why there was an outrage towards the chain. Once I get home, I'll link it. 

Kevin, If you can post ones that sound less gross I'd appreciate that.... this is only what?... maybe 2 out of the last 20 that I didn't like, but still, I don't want it to become a pattern. Granted, you may only have posted that to be an ass, idk...you may actually have made it. Have you, btw? But I love bacon so don't punish me with ewwness.


:heart:


p.s. looks better now that i can see the pic, but still...

I am sorry rogs, but my post are things that interest me. I am sorry that my last couple of recipes have not been satisfactory to you. I hope that in the future, my post interest you more. This how ever may not occur, again I am sorry. When I perfect may Spicy Bacon Buffalo Wing sauce. I will post it, I bet that peaked your interest. Also just to warn you, when I get the internet at home, you might want to avoid my recipe blog on Meatless Mondays. I don't think that will interest you either.

You would probably be more interested in my Philly burger.

Men's gymnastics is SO watchable.  In fact, other than men's swimming, it's the only event I've really watched.



Mm hmm.  I especially appreciated the floor routines and watching gravity take it's toll on them all while doing handstands.

PS - I only watched men's swimming to see Michael Phelps fail.  Sorry, go Team USA, but I think he's become a d-bag since the last Olympics.

I meant for the sheer "eye candy" factor. I could give a s**t less how they perform ... well, when it comes to gymnastics, at least.
