I do have spinach, but it cries out to be paired with cheese. Mmmm, blue cheese.

I cut up a couple of hot dogs, browned them in butter and then scrambled a couple of eggs in the same pan. Not bad! Though today's vegetable intake is not up to par.

I've never started a cream soup from scratch with a roux, though.

I have! and mac and cheese too.

Jilli, could you use oat flour instead of wheat to start a roux if you were making it yourself?

Does that mean canned black beans won't be iron-rich, or just less?

They should be the same, at least to the extent that it makes any difference -- I suspect they said dried beans in contrast with green beans.

I'm pretty sure everything was deliberate and nothing was my fault, bon.

I survived the celebration drinks, and in fact it was both fun and professionally a good idea. I wish I'd felt better and stayed longer, but it was good stuff for me to hear in many ways.

Where the fuck is my appetite, though? Jesus.

Omelette talk makes me think of the best one I ever made, with feta and tomato. It was perfect. I've not made its equal since, sadly.

Mmmm, I use feta in my favorite too.

I take one thick slice of onion and dice it, then sautee it in butter. Set it aside.

Dice up one slice of good ham. Set it aside.

Start omelet, add feta, add sauteed onions, add diced ham. Soooooo goooood.

I cut up a couple of hot dogs, browned them in butter and then scrambled a couple of eggs in the same pan. Not bad!

Oh my gosh, my mom used to make that when we were kids; consequently, it's total comfort food. LOVE.

The can should have nutritional information, including iron. Though I don't know what qualifies as iron-rich.

I suspect they said dried beans in contrast with green beans.

Oh good. Cooking is enough of an issue for me -- I don't want to start soaking beans and stuff, mostly because it will never happen.

I make all my omelets with spinach. Which has iron.

can you update your resume now in anticipation for the job whenever it is announced?

I have done, fairly recently, but I need to see the position description in order to make sure I hit all the specifics of it in my resume. And they can't share it with me until it's posted formally.

I really miss the old process, which had essay questions. This is just check-boxes and then tweaking your resume to make sure it contains all the experience called for in the PD. It's actually harder.

Ooh, maybe I'll have an omelette for lunch tomorrow. It will be a sub-par preparation, but still delicious. I usually get spinach, onions, black olives, sausage, and feta. I have decided sausage beats ham OR bacon.
