Paladin · 09-30-2007, 07:01 PM

OK, but no beets. (But the beet greens are OK.)

Yeah...no beets...eeccchhhh !

Well it's still pushing 90 here in the desert most days so we come down from the summer chilled meals slowly. Made some lentil, split pea, onion, garlic, sundried tomato, pasta soup last week when we had some cooler weather.

The banana-craisin-walnut bread was warm when I sampled a piece soon after it came out of the oven about two hours ago. Not bad if I do say so myself.

Well, young lady...when you obtain the high and honorable privilege of being granted access to the circle of OF's ( however in your case it would be the "OLF" circle with the middle initial standing for "legalistic") you'll soon discover that planning and eating three meals a day would soon render it impossible for you to squeeze through your front door within about...oh...three months at the outside. Prime directives of the OF mantra are "quality, not quantity" and also "conserve energy for important stuff".
Hey SG...look at the bright side, you might even be invited to audition for Wa-Mu commercials. I'm still waiting.

-c-...I'm especially partial to strawberry-banana or straight blueberry with no chaser. MMMMMMMMMM...smoothies !!!

OK, every day, instead of three times a day, if you wish. (Depending upon the length of your day and that you actually buy into the concept of time, eating, creativity, as well as the concept of 'the ultimate meal.' Results may vary--you may become physically rounder as well as mentally sharper, one or the other, or neither. Warning! Not eating might cause you to fade away into non-existence, that is, if you buy into the idea of existence. If that is the case, this message may spontaneously turn itself into an aspirin commercial without warning... )

Was this disclaimer "legalistic" enough for the Wa-Mu commercial audition?

flowperson · 10-02-2007, 03:00 AM

SG...I just got an upgraded credit card last week (what fools they be !). Did you write all of that blather in the brochure with all of the small print ? The style looks familiar. You have my heartfelt condolances.

flow....

ps. I used to write and negotiate research contracts for a living...or was it ? I'd much rather write about food...or comparative religion.

Muslimwoman · 10-02-2007, 04:43 PM

I shall have spinach parcels with mushroom sauce to start, leek and potato bake with extra cheese and glazed carrots for main course and chocolate fudge cake and cream for afters. A nice cold glass of lime juice to drink, followed by mint tea after the meal

The old farts corral? It's lookin' better and better I tell you. I was thinking when writing to this particular thread, but in general too that I'm just getting jaded. I was going to ask Flow to be sure.

I might be able to ingest all of that if I had a bong hit first. Sheesh, mint julips and **** for breakfast! I'd like bacon and eggs over easy, home fries and sour dough, and some harsh black java.

Chris..The first rule you'll run into at the "OF" Corral, after you pass through the cast iron twelve foot high gateway topped with razorsharp spear points and which is connected to a twelve foot high smooth rock wall surrounding the corral which is topped with broken beer bottles, is that you are not allowed to think...ever.

If Snoopy, Paladin, Pathless, or I even have a faint whiff of thinking activities from newcomers prior to their initiaition ceremonies which take place while we are all seated in cane-bottom rocking chairs, they are automatically labelled an " extremist fascist" and a potential "terrorist" and are immediately ejected, expelled, and deported from the paradisical environs of the "OF" corral. Your only option after that is to occasionally audition for WaMu commercials. We can , and have, done that much for those who persist in thinking excessively and often, and cannot refrain from doing so.

Flow....sgt. at arms/OF Corral....
