 |   A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life. |
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.  I'm starting a new blog because
I'll be linking to
I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.
I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.

?Apondia: memoir+ "Good insight into your eating habits over the years.  A very simple diet growing up (yes), supplementing with homegrown foods (no), lots of self restraint (so not me). I do like fish (I prefer cod, flounder, crappie, whitefish), but today it'll be boneless porkchop filleted and stuffed and left over rice. I was raised on leftovers so that's what it is today. I hate throwing out food. My diet isn't good. I'm often sluggish. I have less urge to eat when I travel. " re "Walk Don't Eat"  ?Jenn: fasting. "I do like how you go into great detail. I can't quibble with the benefits of fasting. Good for counting one's blessings and flushing out toxins. I do point out to everyone I interact with though that healthy = the $$ to choose. Many cannot choose. Whether it's potatoes, bread from flour, or rice, cheap calories = survival. As an American who lives 6 walkable blocks from a grocery store I try to monitor what I eat by simply not buying certain things. I don't buy soda (no calories), bottled water (our tap water is very good), chocolate (because I'll eat it all ). I do concur that brussel sprouts (and imho beets and parsnips) are best roasted." re "Invalid Entry" ?Sandy: cast-iron "There are foods I don't like but not much will make me sick.  Me in Isan (NE Thailand): ไม่พริก (mai prik = no hot spice). I think... guess I'll find out!" "I commented before you completed the entry. Quite amusing — as teaching usually is." re "See Food Diet" ?Robert: portions "I have problems with food going bad. Recently parsnips shriveled up on me (and they were good looking too), so I reduced them to powder to add to whatever... like potato flakes in a bag. *sigh* Those are just one serving for me unless I want leftovers (like today). One head of lettuce = I'm eating lettuce all week. I don't buy crackers or cookies for the same reason. They're all just one serving to me as why should I let them go stale? I have limited freezer space (room size freezers were designed for families who buy a side of beef at a time). As long as I have canned tuna (bought when it goes on sale) and pasta or rice I'm fine... but even then... portion control? Me? I'm a see-food eater and cheap-caffeine drinker. Nicely written by-the-way." re "Thought for Food" Sue: "Good luck with the diet. My weight loss is usually unplanned. I do cook, but there are days when a sandwich stuffed with whatever can't run away quick enough will suffice. I do not eat out except at a cafe and if I'm lucky that's once a week. Unfortunately, our local milkshakes include calories. When I travel I eat street food or at a local diner. I eat like a chicken, cheap cheap cheap." re "Food" QP: "Be thankful you have a talisman to hold that contains memories of past generations. I have a pumpkin that needs to be cooked.  " re "My Bad Diet and My Good Baking" LeJen: "My mother took 'rat poison' to thin her blood. Goodbye fried cabbage... The trick though wasn't to totally eliminate it but eat it in very small portions. The blood needed to be not too thick, not too thin. (When am I thinking of Goldie-the-vampire  ?)" re "Food, Glorious Food!" Petra: "I immediately thought of eggplant and moussaka. And the potato I need to sacrifice very soon. The pasta can wait, as can the rice. I love both and eat them frequently. I seem to be 'allergic' to healthy foods; but... if someone would cook healthy for me I wouldn't mind at all. " re "Favorite food" Marvilla: "Get well  soon. I'd eat better if someone else were cooking. I depend too much on bread, pasta, rice. If getting healthy is a priority then everything else may have to take a backseat and be handled by others." re "diet?" Cappucine: "I thought of Portugal, Taiwan, even Norway... could live on a seafood diet there. Not here. Lots of varied fruits, greens and vegetables in Taiwan. I prolly eat a lot of rubbish as well. Trick for me is not buying it, not bringing any home. " re "art of feeding" Kathie: "It's great that you-two cook together, sounds like fun. I actually used salt yesterday. Months can go by without me using it; of course, it's in most processed foods. I have water boiling with lavender (in a tea ball). I love the smell and then just use the water for tea or coffee. I do love fish, but other than polluck it's too expensive in Montana. But when I travel. " re "WDC 30 Day Blogging Nov. 16, 2021" Mike: "Balkan = burek (with cheese, mushrooms, meat or whatever). Not to forget to mention the sausages or in Serbija: pljeskavica. Or the bean dish of Makedonia. Now I'm thinking of all the glorious food I ate there. I know how to say no peppers in Thai. Will see whether that works. " re "Chow call! [30 DBC entry]" Viv: "Yes, great to be able, willing, and disciplined to eat properly. I don't. I do eat more fresh food when I travel. For me, poverty = whatever food had calories to sustain me." re "FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD" Sonali: "Some of my best friends are tomatoes. What am I? Chopped liver? Funny; but, no pineapple on pizza ... nope... never." re "Chat about Chaat - #30DBC" Tina: "For authentic Indian food I suggest you go visit THANKFUL SONALI Now What?. Flights IAH-BLR roundtrip are about $1200. Not a bad price to learn about chaat. I rarely add salt. Sugar is my downfall. Love me some grits and pork&clams (Portuguese style). " re "Invalid Entry" Sox: Actually... a decent response! A fried PB&J... a step above what I usually eat. My next bologna sandwich may be fried in Thai peanut sauce. I have a new addiction. I get panic attacks... but this must've been major. re "November 16, 2021" |
