cooking n’ stuff

I’m not really a Rachael Ray fan – at least when I watched her show when it first started. But there’s what I imagine to be her regular cooking show on right now, and I think she’s ok. Pretty normal-ish…

I’m watching a cooking show you ask in wonderment? But of course. Actually, I’ve been snooping around my recipes of old, and checking out some of the Food Channel shows (I’m way out of touch – last time I watched cooking shows, Graham Kerr was one of my favs… is he still alive?). ANYway, I’m feeling rather domestic these days and thinking about cooking and eating healthier. Well, cooking – period. Mainly because as I remain smoke free, I feel the need to DO something to replace a ciggie. Food. And it stinks and I don’t want that to keep happening, ya know? So that’s the poop about cooking.

OH, and you know what else? I am weaning myself off of caffeine. Yes, really! I’ve been told that even though caffeine suppresses your appetite initially, it ultimately increases it later on (but I chose to ignore the message at that time).

Funny thing… when you start to do a few good things for yourself (as opposed to talking about doing it and not), it kind of has a domino effect on other things in your life. Ever notice that? Quit smoking? Feeling healthier? Well, maybe I should eat better… heck, maybe I should even exercise more (ha, more?). But you know what I mean, yes?

One more thing you must go and look at. Yes, another silly cat video, but for some reason, it cracks me up every time I watch it. The person recording the cat wrote a few words on the screen to suggest what the cat is saying, or at least, what it kind of sounds like. This cat says what sounds like “really?” Really. And it has permeated my brain! Seriously. Anytime anyone says “really” in a conversation, I think of the cat’s voice. “Really? Real… Really?” ha. Go see.
Really.
Luv y’all.
