Labyrinthitis

I am down and out....I have something called Labyrinthitis. It is an infection of the cochlea in the inner ear. It is causing me some major dizziness and sent me to the ER a few days ago. I am having a hard time sitting at the computer screen for very long cuz it doesn't help with the dizzies! So I may be gone for a while longer until I am feeling better. Take care y'all. I will check in when I can. Later Gaters, Kai.

I have a Crush!

I'm in love....or at least in lust. I have a secret crush. Don't tell my hubby. There is someone that I just really dig and get the biggest kick out of. Luckily.... there is absolutely no way in the world I'd ever meet him, much less get to even speak to him...EVER. This person is a celebrity. Now...a little bit about me. I just HATE people that go ga ga over celebrity. They bug the crap out of me, but I really DIG this guy. Now....I don't think I would ever, you know, like, faint or anything, if I ever got to meet him, but I'd be a very happy little camper. Secondly...I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.....Food network. When the kids aren't watching Cartoon network or a movie, I almost always have it on. And if you don't get cable or satellite tv, boy are you missing out. So...here's the deal. When we first got cable I really liked Racheal Ray, then Emeril was ok, but I don't like him much any more. The person I relate to most is Paula Deen, but my favorite.....absolute favorite food personality is....drum roll please..... (((((((ALTON BROWN)))))))!!!!! Okay...now, he isn't 100% perfect, but I just get the biggest kick out of him! I especially love his show GOOD EATS!!! It's such a well done, entertaining, and informative program. Very clean...in everyway. And I have learned so much from watching it over the past few years. Anyway....I made a recipe I saw late last night for dinner today and it turned out soooo Yummy that I just had to share. It was CHICKEN FRIED STEAK. Now...living in Oklahoma for the last 13 years I HAVE made CFS before, and it has always been good, but this one was way great! My dh wanted it after watching the episode on CUBE STEAK . After reading the recipe you will see he cubed his own steaks...but I didn't do that. I found some that looked pretty good and used pre-cubed steaks from the store. The other thing I did was I added seasoning to the dredging flour. Salt, pepper, garlic powder and a pinch of chyenne pepper. I did this cuz that is how I make my fried chicken and thought it'd be better, and it was! Anyway, if you get a chance....take a look at Alton Brown and some of his recipes or shows. They are very entertaining and informative. By the way...it's my 8 year old son's favorite show too!......... OH!!! AB (Alton Brown) has a new show launching later this month called FEASTING ON ASPHALT. It looks like alot of fun and I can't wait to watch! Hope you will to! Later Gaters, Kai!
