Crock pots, or is it Crack Pots

Well the kiddo is feeling better, but Gigantor is not. He's been working though.

I get woken up this morning to some massive crashing then cussing, then Gigantor coming in all pissed off. I was gonna make a corned beef tonight for dinner, so I needed the crock pot down. (I have one of those oval one's that has the ceramic insert) When Gigantor grabbed it, the handle broke off and it came crashing down ending up in a lot of little ceramic pieces. Gigantor ran to walmart and got another one. I don't like the color, but it was the only one they had. I had nice flowers and vines, and this one is chrome. LOL I also don't like how you can't set it on high for more than 6 hours at a time. You can set it on low for up to 10, but sometimes a person just needs high all fricken day. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I've tanked the warm side dish idea. I'm gonna make a big pan of brownies for desert, and some wraps for the side dish. Miranda reminded me that I have a wrap recipe. She gave me hers which was different, and I do want to try it. But I had most the ingredients for the one I make, so gonna do that.

Take flower tortilla, spread cream cheese on it. Put some diced black olives and some sliced green onions on it, then a layer of thin sliced roast beef (I use lunch meat) then roll up and slice in about 1 1/2 inch pieces. It's pretty and it taste good. I'm gonna have to be careful with the onions though. I tend to go overboard, cuz I like them. You can also add diced green chilies but I didn't have any. hehehehehe

We moved the gerbil cage to over here by the computer desk (so I could decorate for Christmas) and there was serious gerbil humping going on yesterday. They are starting to get good at it. And I think I have a hole burned right through my retna's from seeing all that porno. Don't you go blind watching to much. I need to make them a little privacy curtain on the side of the cage or something.

Although we laughed so dang hard the other day. We were watching them run around and I SNEEZED not a little ahchoo, but one of them that like vibrates the walls. When I sneezed it scared the crap out of the gerbils. One ran into the house, one fell off the hill of bedding they stacked up, and the third one jumped straight up in the air, almost to the top of the cage, and did a back flip. We laughed so hard, I think I pulled something. hehehehe

Okay football game tonight, wish us luck. Only two left. (thank god, it's freezing out)

Happy Hump Day all!!!
