what the damn!!!
Category: cooking gone rry
I have seriously been feening Rice Krispie Treats for two weeks! I walked to 7 Eleven last week to buy my ingreds. but to my astonishment, they do not sell marsh-a-mallos! Nor do they sell Rice Krispies!!!
WTH???
So I came home and found about 15 hard marshmallows and some remaining rice krispies to concoct my treat. Needless to say I didn't have the same gratification as I would have if they were quite fresh.
I am just in an anti grocery store mood this month. I'd rather eat out every day then go to the market at this point.

Moving on,,, I found marshmallows @ Target Greatland yesterday but again - no krispies!!! So I make another trip - to the market I go to get the main ingredient.

Now I am ready to make my snack! All gooey yuimminess ready to be inhaled...

But alas, I still came up empty handed. (Read On)
I made it in my nice Pyrex dish in the microwave.

This is what happened as Snap Krackle & Pop screamed:

& No I didn't continue to eat any after the explosion!!! I started a new batch : )

once i made kernal popcorn in a plastic strainer with a glass top in the microwave. needless to say, the end of the experiment dealt with me, covering myself in a blanket, poking at the lid with the newly formed heat bubble to avoid the explosion. it exploded, but my blanket kept me safe. yes. explosion. while making popcorn. stop laughing.

videos
Category: cartoons
Okay it's not really a secret *at least to my family* how addicted I was for years to The SIMS. I still miss playing the game. But due to a poor quality PC,memory,hd (I know, all fixable items),e tc. I have not been able to play and drown myself in their nonsense. whimper**

SO anyway, I delight myself and get my SIMS fix by watching SIMS based remakes of celebrity videos. begin here:

One comment:In one video remake, Beyonce done replaced Kelly & Michelle with chilren from da playground! Apparently they come package with eyeliner and hootchie dances pre-installed.

But I think these are neat. Perhaps only if you are a SIMS aficionado

In recent studies - it is predicted that seafood will be scarce come year 2048. What do they think I will eat if there's no seafood?
