Not much new and exciting going on. I'm on the hunt to find the most perfect grapefruits. I got a few from SuperStore a week or to ago and they were so juicy and so perfect. I have yet to be able to find the same level of the juiciness and deliciousness. It's disappointing. I have a rather odd way of eating grapefruits. I'm coming to find that almost everyone does. My brother has a way he likes to cut them to get to the middle bits. My parents used to always cut them in half and use the prickly spoons. That's back when I thought they tasted like acid death. But now, nom nom nom. Anyways, I take about 5 minutes to skin every single slice down to the meat and then clean up the mess and eat the goods. I developed an aversion to citrus skin at some point in my life. Sometimes I can manage tangerines but usually it all makes me gag. Sad, but at least there's a work around.
I did a new recipe tonight, and hot damn it's good. Bok Choy Chicken Stir Fry!! I added green onions cause I had some to use. And I subbed minced ginger for powdered. But only because my ginger was ready the for the garbagio. I just took my first bite right now, majorly delicious. I followed my usual pattern of picking a few key ingredients and then finding a recipe that required the least amount of pick-ups from the store. We definitely have a winner.
I'm also making nice progress on my scarf. Almost done the first skein of each colour. I also still need to track down a third for each, but I have a hot lead. I also need to get working on those other darn resolutions.

I just thought of something I don't like: bok choy! I usually pick it out of whatever I'm eating.
I had it for the first time in the cafe at Sid Smith at that Wok station. Fell in love.
Good to know. Too bad that photo probably looks disgusting to you lol.
I did not know Sim did not like bok choy! Not even the wee baby ones? I like the look of this recipe and just read it aloud to Dave. "Sounds good," he said. Guess what we'll be having!
I used chicken thighs and that may have contributed to the yumminess.
It doesn't look disgusting. It just doesn't look appetizing lol
Dee, no, not even the baby ones...
Sim - I thought of another one. Water chestnuts....Blech. I know I'm alone on this one.
Tell you what -- Next time we have Chinese I'll trade you my bok choy for your water chestnuts!
Lol deal.
Dee, let me know how it all works out if you do this recipe?
MMMM nom nom stop posting food! i so hungry!
