I have a 'relationship' with peanut butter (that sounds so ridiculous, saying it like that! ;) ) that has changed, over time... but I do still have it in the home, and keep it available, for a limited form of 'use'... (I also keep it on the topmost shelf, in the back (in a 'corner', really), so that it is highly…

...just reading the words "donuts" and "the glaze" is sparking a flashback to this weekend, while with family, when I was offered the last 3 glazed donuts from a recently acquired dozen... the box containing such was presented to me 'out of nowhere' (it was like a 'stealth attack' ;) )... and under previously-normal…

My ad had a seemingly WonderGro-addled banana, instead of a cucumber... (I'm sensing a 'theme'... ;) )

BZAH10, I don't know if it will help to hear this, but I hope that it does... because I think it's normal for good and caring parents (such as yourself) to question things, after the fact, and to ponder what they could have done differently (albeit utilizing wisdom and experience gained in years since (but it doesn't 'work…

Pattie74, it will hopefully help you feel better if/when/after you take a look at the following thread (and especially the OP's charts and associated comments regarding 'stalls' and 'spikes') -- http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10152741/i-hit-goal-today-after-27-months I cannot help considering the OP's…

LMAO (Oh, and the thought crossed my mind, when reading that 'delightful' passage (let alone, when 'digesting' (<-- no pun intended ;) ) the associated 'visual' one is treated to)... that I had just been introduced to a heretofore unimagined(-by-me) scenario that I hope (fervently!) will never have relevance to my life...…

And to add yet another helpful chart-with-explanatory-comments! 257_Lag, you are a gift(-to-the-MFP-community) that just keeps on giving! :) THANK YOU!!! :smiley:

CONGRATULATIONS !!! :) This is one of the most information-filled, and important, posts I've ever seen, on all of MFP... And thank you for being a "data freak" (your words! ;) ) -- and for including so much explanatory context and specifics in your post. I have no doubt that this data-laden 'walk-through' the timeline…

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations, AOJ !!! :)

That was artistic and entertaining, you two... and involves a skill that you might seriously want to consider having 'at the ready', for mentioning if/when you're ever on Jeopardy... and Alex Trebek comes over for that little player-podium -time chit-chat... ;) ...and 'prompts' you with a, "so, I understand you have a…

One can only wonder what aspects of NASA Mission Control dialogue might ever happen to be, were we to ever launch a successful astronaut-helmed mission to Uranus...(!) NASA: This is mission control... do you have Uranus in sight...? Astronaut: Listen, Bill... I'm gettin' sick and tired of the jokes... so, just cut it…

Akin to hearing "I love the smell of napalm in the morning", from "Apocalypse Now"... I love the feel of congealed sugar on the teeth and tongue (not!)... (oh, and for the record, that 'lead in' does not in any way imply that I somehow think that the filmy-residue -generating nature of Donettes somehow renders them a form…

Good gravy, people! -- I've been away for just under a day, and I'm 200 freakin' posts behind! (Can everyone please begin doing the posting 'equivalent' of 'dog paddling', for now, until I catch up...? ;P )

Yep... she was going at a relatively slow pace, but she kept it up 'metronomically' -- she had a specific pace that she was keeping, and she kept it up for the entire default session (of 20 minutes)... and even though it was one of the slowest levels that the machine could be set at, I *know* that even at slow speeds,…

For so many moments in life, I wish it were possible to 'go back in time', record a specific exchange, and then have a kind of impromptu Nightmare-Of-A-Talk-Show, in which I visit the parents of an insensitive *kitten*, and... with their now-an-adult (<-- technically) child present, say, "aaaaand... roll tape...!" -- and…

Gotcha (sorry)... and... good idea! ;)

Acrylamide is mentioned in at least one of the articles referenced in the links from my post (I'll grab an excerpt)... http://www.abc.net.au/health/talkinghealth/factbuster/stories/2011/01/25/3093063.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [...] Acrylamide risk The most well-known chemical in burnt toast is acrylamide, which is…

;) PeachyPlum, I dare say... you appear to have attempted the 'carbon lite' version of what was actioned by George H. Goble, nearly 20 years ago... when he demonstrated for the world just how 'efficient' (massive understatement) a liquid oxygen 'barbecue' could 'cook' something (if what happens can even be called that,…

ethim, I misinterpreted that (or did I...? ;) ) in the very same way... and am still 'on the fence' as to whether an alternative meaning, involving deposits of 'something else' (*anything* else), is truly what was intended... and thus... as a result... I remain perplexed as to whether I am to offer supportive…

And your staunch defense, in employing all manner of tactics, measures, and verbal I'll-have-you-know-itedness (<-- the particle-ending 'trainwreck' at the end of that hyphenated ball-o'-what?! might look jacked, but it means well ;) ), would undoubtedly make the good Doctor proud... you 'Tardissian', you... :)

JPW1990, your post in that thread that begins with "I object to the character assassination of Adipose." was hilarious... ;)

A part of me has a feeling I'll 'recognize' the username of at least one of the posters-who-shall-remain-nameless (<-- nameless partially due to my not yet knowing which usernames are involved ;P ) ... (oh, and btw, I almost started this reply with "methinks" (for reasons I will never understand, that word pops into my…

In my absence, could you do me a favor (?), and hook up a camera near your kitchen (it can still have the lens cap on, no problem ;) ), along with a motion sensor -- so that when you enter 'The Den of Culinary Creation', the camera (keep that flash on!) will click away incessantly... and render a paparazzi-like 'feel' to…

Although it doesn't exactly involve "watching the story of those in the know as they come to grips with what they caused" (which, I agree, would make for a fascinating aspect of exploratory storytelling), the movie "I Am Legend", which is based on a book from long ago, and which previously was 'refashioned' into the movie…

Thanks for writing it! :) I understand completely... and look forward to the 'next installment' of this most adventurous, where-in-the-world-is-Lemurcat12 'bedtime story' (you and your friend would seem to have embarked upon a trip that turned out to involve some Bill Bryson -like 'comical misadventure')... ;)

...and your point is...? ;) I hadn't previously thought of this before, but I think it's 'official' -- there is now a known-to-exist 'market' (of one, at least ;) ) for some cookbook-ery whose focus is on 'all the great things' one could make with just the following 3 ingredients: oatmeal, cereal, and American cheese...!…

1) After reading the words "I'm picking up what you're putting down now", I suddenly imagined a marathoner 'passing a baton' to 'the next runner' -- in some sort of apparently-horrendous-in-length(-and-time) -based 'relay race', in which each runner was to run a marathon-length 'leg' (?!) (can you imagine?!)... In looking…

Susieq_1994, from this day forward, I shall think of you as a confection-concocting 'MacGyver'... ;) (...though you'll also remain in my tiny utensil 'hall of fame' (who says you can't be amazing in more than one realm of 'culinaria'?)... ;) )

Greetings from 'the future'... ;) Worry not, Russandol... if there is anyone who risks being a 'thread-killer', 'twould be moi ;) -- though not due to any specific thing, topic, concept, or confession conveyed... no, the 'killing' of a thread in the wake of any post-related 'aftermath', and if associated with something…

You know... because who *doesn't* do that sort of thing on a whim...?! ;) I confess... that after reading that, I reacted as though I were about to watch a fascinating sporting event... and one for which the answer to the question, "how will this turn out?" is temporarily unknown, yet seems filled with the promise of…
