Steve-food

My friend Steve sent me this picture from a vending machine.

I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to trust this salad for a couple of reasons.
1) The window of opportunity for room-temperature mayonnaise is rather narrow.
2) Is it Bumble Bee or SweetSue Chicken?
3) Too much packaging... but mostly the first one.

... maybe it's just me... or Steve.

weigh-way-down

I've been working on some things in my personal life to be a better me. One of them is my weight. I've been trying to follow the plan laid out in the weigh-down workshop and it's working pretty well for me. I'm at a bit of a plateau right now, but that's OK. Those things happen.
I've joined the YMCA and it's time to sell my own Elliptical machine.
You can bid on that over on eBay if you like.


Good news - thanks to the Elliptical - I'm down about 20lbs since Thanksgiving. I'll keep you updated on that as I go.

Have you lost any weight this year?

... maybe it's just me?

chipotle grilled stuffed burrito redux

Chipotle Grilled Stuffed Burrito
Who knew that those four little words could mean so much to me for so long?

Back in the early days of this blog I wrote a happy little post about a little something that tickled my taste buds at my favorite Faux-Mex restaurant - Taco Bell. Today that little post is #4 on my list of keywords used to find mirthmobile.com.

Chipotle Grilled Stuffed Burrito
That little blog post is also the number one hit on a Google search for those four words. Try it yourself. Though I'm sure once Taco Bell gets wind of this they will hire someone to do some search engine optimization and they can get back on top.

Maybe that will be me...

and we're back

It's been almost a year since the Peter Pan salmonella outbreak.

The jars are finally back on the store shelves and display their fancy marketing slogan: "New Better Peanut Taste!"
Wouldn't it also be appropriate to label them, "Now with less infectious bacteria!"?

... maybe it's just me?

Macaroni and Cheese 6pc

Yes that's right gentle reader, a 6 piece of macaroni and cheese. I'm picturing 6 noodles laden with cheese.
As it turns out they are actually those mac-n-cheese bites. Breaded and fried Macaroni and Cheese.
Can life get any better than this?
I submit that it cannot.

Unless of course you can tell me what Bosco sticks are.

...maybe it's just me?
