It's Friday, what's cooking? 20120615

Beginning to wonder if the two of us are ever going to get completely over this cold. It's just lingering on and on.

Hopefully by tomorrow it will be completely gone as we are planning on putting our kayaks in the Intercoastal and kayaking a few miles out to the Boca Inlet and then snorkeling the reefs around there.

Making one of my favorite soup recipes today, Tomato Soup
Ingredients
2 lb chopped, fresh tomatoes
1 large yellow onion
2 large vegetable bouillon cubes in 3 cups water
1 head garlic
2 tablespoons butter
1 lb finely chopped Carrots
3/4 oz chopped Basil
2 large red peppers
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
8 tablespoons corn starch
Directions
In a skillet heat butter and add the chopped onions and cook until translucent.
Add in carrots and red peppers and cook until tender.
Add in the 3 cups of water with vegetable bouillon dissolved in it.
Add in crushed garlic, basil and and very slowly add corn starch as you stir.
Add in chopped tomatoes with their juice.
Add in sea salt & white pepper.
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer for 20 minutes uncovered or until thick.

Other than cooking just a day of work planned.

That sounds good but no soup for me!

Tried some different housetraining techiques on my dog and it seems to be working out better. It means crating or tethering her to me for a number of days so I am a little sleep deprived but I can see good results. She didn't bark all night last night so that's excellent.

Guess that means I will be doing site work while a dog hangs out about four feet from me. Have a good one!

Good Friday Peoples

Who knew there was anything in tomato soup other than tomatoes

Had a horrible time trying to sleep last night, which explains why my back doesn't hurt that much

More Free Site building for me - maybe a LinkBot for LOR.

Have a good one

Good morning world

My dvr had to delete things to make room for new recordings last night, which is always a sign that I haven't been taking enough time to relax lately. Going to try to remedy that over the weekend (but that might just be wishful thinking).

Tomato soup comes from a can here but I do have plans to make a nice Bacon-Bleu Burger later today. Simple recipe: make a great burger and then put crumbled blue cheese and bacon on it. Yum accomplished.

Wishing a good last weekday to all.

Not a fan of Tomato soup, or any soup for that matter. Chicken Noodle when I feel a cold coming on and I used to eat Tomato Bisque.

Hopefully putting the finishing touches on an IOS app for testing later today. With the delay the App store puts, I have two or three day window to have the new app ready for Jun 26.

Hope everyone has a great Friday (feels like Wednesday)

Morning all.

I love tomato soup, will have to try that as a Vegan soup. I've got some vegan butter I can substitute.

I've had a cold / intestinal bug too. Last night I had my fever going up and down. I've felt like a zombie unable to think for two days, but this morning my head is clearer, so trying to get some work done before zombie woman comes back.

I was really bummed, we missed going into Vegas because neither of us was up to it.

Work is planned today, along with I'm sure laying down resting and naps. We managed to get our cat shaved yesterday, so no running around planned, yea. Have a good one all.
