A Piece Of Cod Is Not A Codpiece

I had already decided to make cod for dinner tonight, but had no idea just how I would prepare it. A simple poaching in foil was too boring Breading and baking? No. frying, no. Grilling? No. Google to the rescue: Cod with chorizo and white beans! I used hot Italian sausage instead of chorizo just because. I entered into the process with great trepidation. As it turns out, it is really good. One makes a "sauce" with tomatoes, a LITTLE BIT (60g) of sausage, some white wine and white beans. This is then baked with the cod. YUMMY! try it.

Let Them Eat Cheese

my team won :) although it looked as if they were trying not too. I have often wondered how many balls a team could drop in one game. I seem to have an answer.

It Might Be Cold Outside

I was greeted by ice on the windowsill and corners of the window of my office this A.M. It was at least 2 cm thick in the corners.

Question of the day

What if someone put melted gjetost on lutefisk?

Bangers and Mash?

S0 here I am some 4 days after surgery, and am finally able to get out of the house for more than a 15 minute slow walk without great discomfort. The bruising has been dissipating in some areas while developing in others. Kind of a chameleon effect. My (specific body region) has never been that color before. Fortunately, the level of pain is less than the shade indicates. Not that there is no pain, there is as anyone who has had this surgery will attest. In response for those of you who whish to thank me for sharing: "You're most welcome." In respect for everything sacred, or at least sacred by my standards, I am not posting a pic, nor am I mentioning the specific part.

Ode to Hasbro

This morning while waiting to "go under the knife" we were watching news on the TV in the waiting room. It was ironic that one of the headlines was about mess-ups in the operating room: wrong patient operated on, wrong part removed, wrong medications given during surgery, etc. I was reminded of the movie "Airplane" when the in flight entertainment was a documentary on airplane crashes. Anyway, things went fine during my hour long nap, and I am making friends with Percocet.

A Very Large Moth

I saw this on an outside wall by the main entrance of the Physics building on the NAU campus. While I was taking this picture, a student copied me an also took a pic. This moth is HUGE!
