What's on your mind?

I don't cook.

This is sorta related to my story.

(Also tldr because this turned out long and why do people tldr at the end anyway?.....I'm missing a part.)

There's this (I call it low rent) Japanese place near me called Yoshinoya and in my pre diet days, I'd be all over their beef bowl. I've been craving it lately so checked the website for calorie counts and the kids size was reasonable but I changed it to teriyaki chicken which was more reasonable. 😀

But then I realized I have a bag of frozen teriyaki chicken from trader Joe's in my freezer so, if I got some rice, I could make my own. So I bought some dry rice instead of already cooked because of the sodium.

Then I had to figure out how to make it.

Now, I have a rice cooker I got from a rewards program but I only wanted to make the bare minimum. Me and a lot of carbs at one time can't be trusted. It didn't seem like I could do that without it not being difficult to clean up so moved on to a smaller crock pot I bought when I was feeling ambitious or it was on sale or something.

But I had to clean it first. I put the still clean top aside and let the bowl part soak a bit.

Sooooooooo while it was soaking, I was checking out how to make rice again and saw it could be microwaved.

How could my non cooking *kitten* not think of that first?!?!

After the crock pot bowl thingy was dry, I was going to put it away and now I can't find the top. Anywhere. In my not so big apartment.

I even checked the bedroom.

So that crock pot top is on my mind.

And I still haven't made the rice. 😀

I'm probably gonna end up on episode of Hoarders at this pace I'm going.

Abe agrees; you need more bikes.



Which is better, a new bike, or a new girlfriend ?

Both are fun, however...... unless your new girlfriend comes with a Pinarello frame-set, well........

I guess it depends on how well they ride 🤷🏽‍♂️

That I probably will never post in any of the threads here devoted to body parts or being a mom. My body doesn't really fit the narrative and I don't have the courage nor self-esteem to post anything outside of a generic selfie these days.

And it has been that way my entire life. I think that just may be who I am at heart. I can wish with all my being to be someone else.. or to behave differently, but it just fundamentally goes against who I am.

I can contribute cute cats though.

My orchids have new little buds. I think they are actually going to bloom one more time this year. I'm so excited.
