:heart: Right back at you, Ouinon. As for reading something into posts or words that isn't there : Been there, done that, and will probably be there doing that again because :roll: I'm missing part of my brain, you know. :lol:

My best recipe:

1. Cut chicken into approximate cubes (exact cubes take way too long, trust me).

2. Melt some butter into a nonstick frying pan. When melted, add chicken.

3. While waiting for chicken to brown, get distracted by someone doing something amazingly stupid on TV.

4. Get tired of stupid person, start playing video game to pass the time.

5. When smoke alarm goes off, remember chicken on stove.

6. Pause game, rush into kitchen, put out small fire.

7. Toss charred remains of cubed chicken into trash.

8. Call Papa John's Pizza, order large spinach alfredo pizza.

NOTE: Only prepare this recipe when there is enough money in the bank to pay for the pizza.

NOTE 2: In step 5 above, it is important to ensure before you begin this recipe that the batteries in the smoke detector are still working. Otherwise, you may ruin the pan.

heee heee hee, that's even better than exploding the baking dish by putting it on top of a burner while letting it "cool off" - but forgetting the burner is on. :lol:

Ah, Deacon. I really wanted you to bring those chicken cubes sauteeing (how do you spell that word?) in butter to an edible conclusion. It's dinner time here and I'm hungry. Please - try again unless it's a complete BS recipe. :wink:

Krex, your Ramen noodle recipe sounds real good. I have a special place in my heart for Ramen noodles because they are the mainstay of prisoners. Every time I see Ramen noodles in the market I get a picture of some poor prisoner sitting in his cell eating his noodles. I'm not kidding about this. I hold them on the level of Bread to the Muslim and the Eucharist to devout Catholics. Ramen noodles are holy food. Our exchange student was Muslim and she told us that her mother says that "bread is so holy that it is permissable to stand on the Koran in order to reach it on the shelf." That's how I feel about Ramen noodles. I don't often go to mass so I consider my morning toast my Holy Eucharist. If I don't have bread, Ramen noodles will do the job. Of course, this is probably grounds for excommunication. Do I care? :roll: Better people than me have been excommunicated. :wink:

:lol: :oops: I have that recipe!! I make it at least once every couple weeks. Change TV to WP and video games to knitting. And that reminds me to put the battery back in the smoke detector. 8O Thanks!

Hello Funkfisk, it's nice to meet you. Feel free to come out when you are ready. There are always one or two of us under a table or chair, in a corner, hiding in the kitchen or sitting in the big old oak tree yonder. (Can you see it over there? It has a picture of little bugs hanging on the side of it.)

And a big wave and smile to everyone else. Time to take the stinky little dog to the groomer's and take the long-haired owner to the hairdresser's for a cut. Have a lovely afternoon.


oh thanks! and i first have to thank for the really good tasting coffee, marvelously!
I can hang inside the aquarium if there is one!

also my panda need somewhere to play around, they will hug all. and dont make them upset.




Awwwww... they are sweet little pandas. I have 2 also. I believe they are living on my daughter's bed at the moment. I also have two white and black dogs who are lovely but not as cute as pandas.

I could move the aquarium from my living room into the cafe if that would make you happy. You would have to share it with 6 tetras, an angelfish and a black plecostomus but they all seem friendly enough. :wink: :D


tetras <3 one of my favorite fishes. my pandas said that it's good that your daughter has 2 pandas with her, because my pandas always sleep with me. (and disturb me in the morning :-o)

(yeah this is a month ago but i'm slow)

in 2 month time i move there. to a aspie-apartment-complex in the town i live in (: (notice the sounds from my neighbour, he don't know who moves in next to him... )

Ramon noodles, cookies from SA (Super America), and bagels have seen me through some pretty hard times.


Burnt chicken and burnt pans .......Several times I have put eggs on to "hard boil" to hear a big bang after a period of time(time??? what's that?), and run to the kitchen to find "egg bits" all over the kitchen...yes, good science experiment. How long does it take for an egg to explode after all the water has boiled away...(make sure the kids wear their safty goggles)<--recommend using a pan you do not plan to use again.


I am on the job hunt again...(10 min of on-line hunting followed by 30 min on WP)...slow process but I did find a cool web site.

Jobvent.com<---people write in and rate their best and worset jobs. The one I am thinking about got pretty good ratings, so it was some what reasuring..The one I now work at had a -175 and certainly deserves it...pet smart sucks!! !!


http://www.jobvent.com/browse.php?Filter=A

Have fun.

Oh. On another note...Some may notice some "editing" done on the Attwood thread. We have a banned member that I can not discuse that had some inappropriate personal information that another member requested be removed...so I did. (I don't know how I figured out how to do this with my "missing brain bits". :wink:) oh yeah...Lau helped me with his extra brain bits...Lau, don't kill me for posting this, I just thought ithe editing might be confusing to some members here .

You are in the age range, Aspergian Mutant, but everyone is welcome as long as we have sedate topics!! So welcome to the ex cafe .. and have some coffee.

I have just has a strange experience. I was replying to Funfisks post when Windows took it upon itself to swich off the computer to complete some upgrades. Just before it switched off, an Autism Speaks ad flashed on the screen. What is going on?

Your new apartment looks very nice, Funfisk. Have you any furniture?

I hope you will be happy there,

Aspergie mutant...do you have any special interests that you shelved to focus on raising your child ? I found that a lot of the things I was fascinated by as a child still appealed to me and I am loving doing them now with no one to tell me they are "wrong" .
