Tagged!

Here's a silly but fun meme from Poppy Cede:

1. Delve into your blog archive.
2. Find your 23rd post (or closest to).
3. Find the fifth sentence (or closest to).
4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions.
5. Tag five people to do the same.

So here's the 5th sentence of my 23rd post:

Saute for about 3 minutes, or until the onion has lost much of its water.

Disappointing, I know...it's a recipe for sweet potatoes...a very good one, actually ;)

So...I tag Liz, Lora, Lisa, Ms. Dork, Jules, and Bdogg (I know, I can never stick to 5). Dig, dig into your archives!

Yay! I feel like I'm repeating myself because I said this on AC's blog, but I am so intrigued when I see the sentence generated by the 23rd and 5th rule. It's like a little present. But, somehow if I had just read the sweet potato post by itself I might not have noticed just how good it sounded.

OK! I don't know if I have 5 that haven't already been tagged though! I'll give it a try! Do I do it just the way you did? Put the people I'm tagging up on my blog & they find out that way?! Oh, I'm such a meme-virgin!

Yep, you can just cut and paste my "one through five" text and substitute the names of five other people. It's fun to see what the 5th sentence is!

Will do! (actually have done already). I pet a small young miniture schnauzer on my walk home from the gym - light & dark brown w/green eyes - very cute! Don't you hate when the owner is sort of unfriendly but the dog loves the attention!? (I was going to blog this, but figured I'd just share w/you .. LOL).

Hehe, I know exactly what you mean. Or when the owner pulls the dog away - I hate that! Especially if it's clear that the dog wants to linger with you.

I patted a dachshund tonight who barked absentmindedly, then went on wagging his tail.

Vegetable personalities

At the risk that you'll all think I'm nuts...but heck. I was getting cauliflower ready for dinner and it occurred to me that vegetables have different personalities. In my mind, anyway. Zucchini: the most agreeable of vegetables. It blends in with everyone, but it's never obsequious or false to itself. Sweet potatoes: the grandmother of vegetables. Very cozy and welcoming. Cauliflower: kind of bland, devoid of personality, but it could surprise you sometimes. Like a dull guy who occasionally tells a funny joke at the water cooler. Broccoli: feisty. Like a terrier. Spinach: kind of dour, but a loyal friend. Kale: has a fierce sense of individuality, but like spinach, is a loyal friend. Kale's affections last for life. Corn: this one is kind of a party animal. Corn is still drinking beer and making a mess when you'd like to be closing up. Tomatoes: a little sloppy. The kind of vegetable that needs to be reminded to tuck its shirt into its pants. Cabbage: not invited t

happy birthday e!

[Posted by Bearette's husband until she has Internet access] e was born today! 8 pounds even, a cute and healthy baby boy. He likes to stick out his tongue just a little, and move his mouth around. The hospital gave him a little white hat with a purple pom pom. Bearette is tired but happy. Pictures soon.

The return of Rudolph

Rudolph is our small furry friend, whom I've never seen. He visited the kitchen last night while D was up late. I know this because: 1) A large sonic device is plugged in right in front of the crack between the oven and the wall. The sonic devices in the living room have kept Rudolph away from there, his previous hideaway. Apparently the cracks between appliances and the wall are harder to reach. 2) The mop has been moved from the hall closet to the kitchen closet. This means D tried to capture Rudolph. 3) A turtle magnet I haven't seen in a while is now on the fridge. That means it fell behind the oven and D found it during his interactions with Rudolph. (I am praying hard that Rudolph is a boy, since we don't want to find many small Rudolphs.) What makes me feel better about this whole thing is that mice are apparently everywhere this winter; even my brother has had problems with them. And this little guy seems to stay behind the oven and only appears around 4 am (only D
