These thoughts are a few days old. But, sadly, LOST is over. I don't care that there were a lot of little mysteries not solved, or that there were some inconsistencies. Boy, these critics are tough! I am just sad that it is over. And I LOVED the ending. That's right; I wasn't disappointed in the least. Take that, you critics! I will enjoy watching all the old shows starting with season 1 to the last show. Good bye LOST.
(I was this way with LORD OF THE RINGS, too.) I admit it is a bit weird. But their are worse things.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell Lasagna
Random bits from the fridge made the most delicious dinner tonight. No recipe here. I made it up as I went along and the WHOLE FAMILY LOVED IT. I mention it because I just wrote down the recipe. I will make it again. I started laughing as I started writing. Although it was quite serious business when I was creating it. It's name is what it is because I always hope the kids won't ask what's in a meal before they taste it. Wouldn't want any lowered expectations due to shredded zucchini. So this is what I used, and, yes, I am a bit proud.
spaghetti noodles (who said lasagna needs wide flat noodles?)
leftover meatloaf, crushed and sauteed in a little oil
yellow squash
kale, sauteed ever so slightly in oil, and seasonings. Kale is a somewhat bitter compared to spinach, but it substitutes fine if you don't have spinach.
tomato sauce - for meat or veggie lasagna, chicken goes better with a white sauce
cheese sauce - soy cream cheese (as gross as it sounds (AGAIS), soy mozzarella cheese (not bad), soy cheddar cheese (AGAIS), soy milk, seasonings, chicken stock, small amt of sauteed kale, one small yellow squash - all mixed in the food processor. And it was good. Biggest surprise of all.
I layered as it made sense to me, and they loved it. They loved it, they actually loved it!!!

Until Then....
Every time I turn around another week has gone by. Gone by without a blog entry. This is no way to blog. But stay with me, my 6 loyal followers, I will learn to get a picture on the PC, whether it be from hubby's phone, my phone, my old phone I dropped so much I broke it, our regular camera, or the 'net itself. I will figure it all out, and then take a class on this most interesting thing called blogging, buy a domain, focus, include some advertising and when my blog becomes a visual feast (or at least better than it looks now) my 6 devoted followers will be my guests at the Academy Awards when my blog turned book turned movie, starring Cate Blanchett as me (!!!!) will be nominated for Best Picture. I simply cannot wait!!! But until then, please stay with me. Thanks!

I am not really showing child's identity if only half a face is showing. He is blonde and blue eyed on the other side.
See what I mean?
Beware knitting photos coming soon!
