Cooking in the kitchen w/drew
About 7 years ago Taylor and Tiffany and I started a tradition of having thanksgiving together. It has always been a good time. Some years it has grown to around 11 or 12 people. This year it is back to more manageable size. Today I had to go to the store because I wanted to make something different this year. Soup. Butternut squash soup to be exact. So not ruin others at the meal table I gave it a go tonight as a sort of trial run. It all came out fine…to end the suspense. That really isnt why im writing. Oh and I will not be making it for tomorrow. I dont think the soup is going to fit. I will be making some Parmesan potatoes that I have made before.
Ah yes the reason I’m writing. While I was walking up and down the aisles looking for my ingredients I started to notice all the food on the shelves. More food than I think they could possibly sell Lately Ive been trying something different in my diet more about that later. Much later. This change has caused me to examining what I eat, how I eat and how much I eat. Not as a weight loss thing more of a (at any moment I can walk out my door and buy myself something while others can’t kind of thing.) I can turn on my faucet at any moment and get a drink. It is to the point that I cant even drink bottled water anymore. Does anyone understand what I’m talking about? I don’t know why this has been on my mind but it has. Weird huh. Well, Mumbai is on fire right now and the cosby show is on and the house is quiet. I have so much.
I still have two compassion child packets if anyone is interest. I’ll try and get those up Monday for you to see. Elaine was the last one to sponsor. Thanks Elaine. Taylor also has something going on so you should check it out.
And in honor of John Stewart your moment of Zen

Okay, so first of all, your blog is way cool, and I need you to give me some pointers, I am not very creative or computer savvy. Second, Yes. I know exactly how you feel about all the food we have available here and how we can have anything and everything we could ever want or need at our fingertips. I dont know if it is possible to ever resolve this conflict within ourselves. And third, that video is horrifically hiliarious and it will give me nightmares for a very very long time.
