I'm gonna find a job after eating ::that:: ? LOL

Today's Outlook
(January 29, 2009)

You'll see your moves or projects crowned with success. However, control your impulsiveness more than ever and think of consequences before taking risks. You'll need calcium and phosphorus: eat liver, processed cheese, goat cheese, and raw butter. Good chance to find a job. You'll have nothing to lose in this undertaking; go ahead without hesitation.

"Everybody Knows" - Dixie Chicks

Tell me now if you came sneaking up behind
Would you know me and see behind the smile
I can change like colors on a wall
Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all
I think I hide it all so well

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows

Looking through the crowd
I search for something else
But every time I turn around
I run into myself
Here I stand
Consumed with my surroundings
Just another day
Of everybody looking
I swore they'd never see me cry
You'll never see me cry

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows

You say I'll pay the price
That's the chance that I'll take
Though you may think I'm telling lies
But I just call it getting by

Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows

Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows I am just barely getting by

Half a million dollars of the funding will assist with architectural costs for the renovation of the community’s train station and the redevelopment of Centennial Park.

Kids favourite recipe

And one I haven't made in ages, really should do that soon ...

Honey Curried Chicken

3 lb chicken breasts 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 cup butter, melted 4 tsp curry powder
1/3 cup liquid honey Pinch of cayenne powder

In greased shallow 13x9 baking dish, arrange chicken in single layer, skin side down. In bowl combine butter, honey, mustard, curry powder and cayenne, stirring until smooth and blended. Pour over chicken. Bake chicken, uncovered, in 375F oven for 20 minutes, basting once. Turn chicken over, baste again and bake for 20 minutes longer, basting once, until is tender. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

("Chicken" or seitan works good in this recipe, tofu too as long as you brown it first)
