Thanks Sub. I think we call it a blood orange.Quote:

Chicken? :D
Well, I'm an amateur in taking good shots :D.
my boyfriend and I are in the process of making a bag of Nacho Cheesier Doritos and salsa a good enough reason for me to drive for 20 minutes, uphill, in the dark, on pothole-riddled roads, from my dorm to his house.
So far, it's working...sort of....so hopefully soon I will be eating Doritos and salsa!
A plum.................
Not just chicken but raw chicken. ;) :lol: I think it's the color and the perceived texture and it might have something to do with the fact that I don't really like fruit. :p But I'm sure they're very tasty if you like that sort of thing.Quote:

bread I bought at the bakery.
One is a red bean bun and the other is bread with cheese/green onions on top.
I am eating good old sweets!
My first coffee of the day and a warm apple pastry :D
That reminds me of my large size cappucino this morning :D
Currently having apple juice.
Chicken Pizza!
BBQ Pizza.... is there something wrong with that? It's South Beach Diet Pizza
How can any pizza be diet pizza?
Eating a croissant (for real this time) and drinking coffee.
Roasted sunflower kernel cereal (coated with anchovy and spice)
just finished waffles, scrambled eggs (no doubt they were fake liquid eggs out of a packet), canned pear, and orange juice from...from the cafeteria (gag)
Cheese Balls.
Dates and tea.
(I don't mean to say that I have my 'dates' with tea... I mean these dates.
I am eating Dates Biscuit.
Cinnamon swirls with soy milk :D
Waffles and coffee (with chocolate)
water :p
......
sunflower seeds and a coke
I dunno. Maybe that's why there are so many Fatty McButterpants look-a-likes here in the U.S. of A.Quote:

This fully washable keyboard is on my list of things to buy! :p
A nice cup of Earl Grey tea rescued from the garbage heap by the watchful eyes and deft hands of yours truly (he says whilst spilling tea all over himself).
Sorry about your flu, Logos. I have a friend who claims that ginger tea will solve that problem in ridiculously large doses. Take this advice with a grain of salt, as my friend is very into herbology. She claims to know of certain plants that can kill cancerous tumors. I've seen her produce tea out of nothing but a cup of hot water and a lawn.
How did the tea end in the garbage?
In the hazy aftermath of flu, I've ventured to a little apple sauce and bland rice with boiled chicken :cold: though heck ya to avoid that all again I would try anything and I love ginger, I have some, maybe if I boil some in water? or grate it into the rice, I've heard that ginger is good for upset stomach.
Hope you get better soon, Logos!
I am having tea and GrApEs
I work in a grocery store and was instructed to throw out a bunch of expired food, among it a tin of Earl Grey. It was indeed past the date on the tin, but I'm not sure why there is a date in the first place, as tea doesn't expire. I got some free tea though, so I'm not about to question it.
Thank you, my brain and stomache are well recovering :lol:Quote:

And Logos, I hope you feel better soon. There's nothing worse than the flu, you have my most heart felt sympathies.
Grocery stores throw away enormous amounts of food. If a package is damaged in shipping we throw away the contents and send back the packaging for a refund. I had to dispose of a 10kg bag of sugar with a small tear in it. In that particular case, however, I gave the sugar to a couple of fellow staff members, who then had to walk home, past the police station, carying five killograms of a white powdery substance in unmakred transparent bags.Quote:
