Holy shit. I met tori.

Ok you're going to have to click.

These are very small, I imagine, but if you click on them you'll get a glimpse of my pressed penny collection! I've collected these through the years, and I continue to collect them. It's a neat hobby, and it's cheap! $0.51 a penny!


Now I want to collect more!!!

Humpty Dumpty rolled off the counter.

I don't normally do this, I don't usually cook, actually.

But today I stepped outside the box and made a non-recipe fried rice yum yum experiment. It went well. Except for the egg. That didn't go well.

So here's what I did. I started off by making a pot of fresh (non instant) rice. I think it was jasmine rice. So i cooked that, and while it was simmering joyfully in the pot, I cut up:
1/2 tomato (just the rind, I ate the yummy inside bits)
1/4 Green Pepper
1/4 Red Pepper
A bit of red onion
And 1 clove of garlic. It was a pretty big clove.
And I whipped an egg.
**EDIT** I made this again tonight and used long grain rice instead of Jasmine and added a bit of Cilantro and more tomato, onion, and garlic, and it was much better! The cilantro really added a nice kick.***

Then I took the rice that was cooked and dumped it into a skillet. If you make this you should really rinse the rice in a bowl or something to get the gunk off of it. Anyway, I dumped the rice into the skillet and after I moved it around with my spatula a little I added the egg. SLOWLY. I cooked the egg in there for a bit, and added some soy sauce. Add that to taste. I like a lot of it. I added a small amount of wasabi just for a bit of flavor, and then after the egg was cooked, I dumped in the veggies I cut up. I let that cook for a minute, added a little more soy sauce, and then served it up with Tomatoes!

4 of June er July!

I didn't go to any big shows today, which I'm kinda glad for. I really don't like traffic, and I don't like smokers, and I have small patience for stupid people. So instead, I spent the evening with my nephew, my brother, and my dad. My three favorite men, bar none. Buuut, because one of us was being a naughty boy all night (Kris, I'm looking at yoooo-uuuu) we decided to keep it kinda low key and just watch fireworks from my balcony. Well, two of us did. One of us said he wanted to watch, then changed his mind and became more interested in a balloon (Kriiii-iiiissss). Either way, it was still a lot of fun (until the very end), and I got a few pictures from it. Please click on all to get a better view.
