Flaxseed is good - it makes a yummy topping to an extra-large chocolate sundae! No, really...I sometimes use flaxseed instead of natty peanut butter in the shakes.

Right now I'm eating Frigo Cheese Heads, striped maz and cheddar string cheese. Light. *twirls his finger* it tastes Light, too.

String cheese! Another one!

Danon's yogurt! Tasted like paper pulp the first time, but I got used to it and like it now over others.

"If there's anything that I like better than honey and ketchup, it's bologna and whipped cream..."

NOW, with that said, can anyone identify the person who made that statement back in 1933 ?

I'm going to take a wild guess and say...Oscar Meyer?

Breakfast: 'nother protein shake. They're quick and easy.

For lunch I'm gonna have...lemme see (digs in bag)...hard-boiled eggs, spinach (leaves - salad), almonds, and some 98% fat-free jerky. Hey, it's the Indian in me, okay? LOL

Jerky? or Dry meat? Love jerky, can't stand dry meat! Blech! Pemmican is nasty too...But I do like choke cherries and fry bread(even hough it's not good for you)...

Today is a yogurt smoothie and apples with peanutbutter...I got too many complaints yesterday about my hummus...they just don't know what they're missing!

Okay - this is one of the things (Jerky, BTW...you don't like dried meat!!! oh, my! It's the best stuff in the world, like dried salmon, mmmm! has to be salted, though, hee hee hee, but anyway) I just don't understand...what is hummus?

See, it's like something that everybody in the world knows but me. Sometimes do you just feel out of the loop?

It's a paste...like a dip. made out of Chick Peas (aka garbanzo beans)...It smells because I put so much garlic in it...but it's low in calories and high in fiber & protein...I make my own so I control what goes into it.

If my DH didn't care for the dry meat, I'd send it all to you...we were given a barrel of itby his cousins...venison dry meat...I guess the deer ate too much sage...because that's what it tastes like to me.

Wow...who made it? I've never tasted dried meat that was like sage. Usually, we butcher and then cut into strips. Sometimes the meat is packed in a barrel of salt, other times it's hanged to dry in the smokehouse.

Plain and natural. You know, Indians don't like to use a lot of ingredients, I don't know why. When I make spaghetti, I have a long list of potions it seems like.

This hummus sounds interesting. I need to try it. I like to try all kinds of new foods...but one time I almost got sick in a chinese restaurant in Eugene when I was trying soushi for the first time. *blech!*

They had little candles on the table, and my friends were cracking up when I was holding my soushi over the flame to cook it.

It's amazing how different people like different things, huh? Diverse cultures, various foods. What's yummy to one can be hard to swallow for another. It's a blessing, really.

I'm just glad not everybody's like me! I'd be quarelling with myself constantly! hee hee hee

Whirlwind; The quote in post # 13 is attributed to Curly Howard, one of the Three Stooges, from one of their short subject films in 1933. This was during the worst part of the US Depression Era (1929-1938) and the film that they made dealt with getting part time jobs as dishwashers in a Diner. As the plates would come back from the counters and booths, the Three Stooges, Larry, Curly and Moe, would eat the remnants of what was left over because they had very little income or food of their own. In a sarcasm style, Curly looked at what he was about to eat and said, "If there's anything I like better than honey and ketchup, it's bologna and whipped cream." This was a reference to the hard times in the US at that time and the scarcity of proper meals for those with low or no income.

While we eat our meals today, we should reflect upon what we have ourselves, and what very little some others may have somewhere in the world or even in our own country. We can then appreciate a bit more as to what a joy it was in 1933 to have "honey and ketchup as well as bologna and whipped cream " or anything at all, for that matter, to just get by...

It's from NE Montana - Fort Peck rez...the badlands...they just butcher the deer & hang the thin strips in the sun to dry...I think I would like t if it were less fatty and sagey (is that a word?)...cause I love jerky plain...just a little salt.

my Hummus recipe:

1 can garbanzo beans
1/4 cup olive oil
1 bulb roasted garlic
1/4 t salt
grind beans in a blender with all ingredients until a firm paste...add more oil or water if needed to complete the grinding process...chill serve with veggies or chips. Makes about 2-1/2 cups
