“Rainbow Cuisine” Cookbook from South Africa — Yummy!

Karen sent me on a nice journey to find this cookbook!

In our family, we all share an appreciation for the wonders of good food. That is the curse for what my  psychologist wife  refers to as  “super tasters”…  a physiological distinction where some people just experience more from their taste of food. I wouldn’t want to be any different.

This is why “Jenny Craig” comes in so handy at times!

However, during those times of planned indulgence, the right food can be fully appreciated! South African recipes and portions are quite in line with a healthy lifestyle. A particular  South African recipe book  was recommended to my daughter “Chef” Karen that — unfortunately — she couldn’t find anywhere in South Africa and was out of print, so she asked me to find one! Finally, after a bit of searching, I found one (and only one) in England and it’s on it’s way to me! I can’t wait! 

It all looks so good!

Karen has blogged about another one of the  author’s cook books  and here is a  LINK to Karen’s blog  on the subject.

Have you Fangangoed Harry Potter, yet?

Harry Potter is MINE!!!

This may not mean anything … except to us kids, but I am very pleased to have “FANDANGOED” a couple of tickets to the New  “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”  coming out MIDNIGHT July 10th, 2007!

I know this is a work night for many folks… but it should be wonderful if it stays true to the book. I am rather curious why the last of  “Joe’s” books  is being released AFTER the movie. Hopefully, this is not an ominous sign. I have the new books ordered,too!

Looks like fun!

Karen’s  “dinner theater”  activity looks like fun too!

Roadtrip to Tennessee!

Karen's New home in Knoxville, Tennessee 

Well, for the past ten days we traveled to Knoxville, Tennessee from little San Luis Obispo, California ; then we found Karen an apartment, moved her in and then drove back! Helping our kids move is our pleasure.

Whew!

Dad celebrating with a BLOOMIN ONION!

All this work needed some reward including: a trip to the  “Texan” in Amarillo,  the  “Marketplace” in Arkansas  and an  Outback in Tennessee!  I enjoyed my “Blooming Onion.”

Well,  Jenny Craig,  I still lost weight!
