You know what's REALLY getting old???

That's terrible!  Feel better :-)

  Ain't kids great...six kids and two dogs here. I'm afraid to get sick. My middle daughter had something like that last night, she is better today. 

PHEW!!!  For a minute there I thought you were going to say ME!  And I was just about to Block your ass... but you saved yourself at the last minute!  ;) 

I am pre-op and ate **** I shouldn't have in a quantity I shouldn't have...

BLAH... Need to STOP this crap!  Bought Protien Shakes and going to start doing what I can pre-op to prepare myself for Post-op!  No time like NOW.

Not to "date" myself too much here I can remember pulling concrete in Houston, TX in the Summer of 1980 when we had over a straight month of 100+ degree days. I want to say we started at 5:30 or 6:00 in the morning and called it a day round 2:00 PM.

Steak, a few French Fries and a spoonful of apple salad for supper.  Plan on taking a walk afterwards when it hopefully cools down a bit.

That instantly took me back to my youth in the 80's spent getting up hay in the blazing sun. Ick. I was really young, but child labor laws do not protect you from your grandparents and farm work!

Sweating in every single solitary crack on my body & sick of this heat. This is why I would rather have the cold and snow. I need to move away from the deep South. I think. But we probably won't and can't.

I am truly not an irritable person usually, unless I am hot.

B -Eggs
L -Tilapia & carrots
S -grilled burger, cauliflower.

Thanks Nik for the greek yogurt tip for marinating chicken. I love what it does for the my grilled chicken breasts. Thanks alot!!

 Glad you like it! 

I'm still reasonably new in all this, just eight months out, and I'm trying to figure out what quinoa is.

Quinoa is a grain - or is that a seed - anyways, it's sort of like rice.  You can buy it in packages and in bulk.  Good to lightly toast it first, or rinse well then cook as directed.  Good with bouillon instead of water added.  Use in rice replacement dishes or in cold salad..yum.....quinoa (KEENWAH), edamame beans, black beans, red peppers makes a good salad.

Flaked quinoa is a good replacement for Cream of Wheat... cook about 3 tsp with water in the micro, 90 seconds.  Add cinnamon, artificial brown sugar, milk.  Yum.  I sometime add a scoop of unflavoured soy protein powder and a bit more water and then nuke it......

 Did you mean three TBSP of flaked quinoa? I'm trying to imaging cooking 3 tsp (teaspoons).
