I've worked in more than one hotel kitchen where a really deep clean like that would have been beneficial...

A "call cleaner"? For some French polishing, perhaps?

[Ursa major]

Telephone sanitising, obviously.

The LHC was sabotaged from the future to save us. Thanks time travelers!

A long while ago, Morphy, I believe it was, showed me a site called Thisiswhyyou'refat.com, a site full of some very...interesting food. You know, people making pizzas covered in sweets, or a cake made from meat, some really fatty, unhealthy foods. Anyway, I showed it to my housemate one day, who's been known to make some monstrosities of his own. Then later on me, said housemate and another housemate were left alone in the house together and we decided to make our own ThisIsWhyYou'reFat.

So we made The Gluttonator, a nine tiered sandwich which included chips, breaded chicken, various sauces, sausages, onion rings etc etc. I didn't eat any of it, seeing as it had meat in it, but they halved it and ate it. And looked rather rough afterwards. I took photos of the whole affair, because it was hilarious and needed to be recorded for posterity.

We decided to send the idea to the website, as it's made up of contributions from people. We didn't hear anything for a long while...and then...a message...that our creation was going to be added to their new book! And now the book has been printed and The Gluttontor is in there, as are our names. I am mentioned for taking the photos. My first photo acknowledgement

WIN!

So now we know what to say when we reveal our dreams of being published to someone and get the observation: "Fat chance!"




(Congratulations, by the way, Hoopy.)

[Overread]

GAH you beat me!
Congrats Hoopy

[ktabic]

Congrats Hoopy!

[Interference]

Nice achievement, Hoops. Well done and well deserved.

[Majimaune]

Well I finished a letter to Charles Sturt University yesterday which is good. Took me a while to write it.

All I have to do now is write a 15-20 minute speech and a thing about why I did so many interviews of people and what I learnt from it.

[Deathpool]

Good job HoopyFrood and Majimaune.

New rule: Nobody is allowed to post descriptions of food unless they are going to MAKE ME SOME TOO OMG that sounds awesome!!!!!!

And congrats!!!

I don't know if I updated you all on the baby, it is a girl, and she's freaking huge, due Feb 14th give or take a week. She's very healthy, and I have no signs of anemia or diabetes or high blood pressure. I'm seriously bigger with her than with any of my other babies. I feel ginormous.

We are thinking of naming her Caydence Raelee.

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

Caydence Raelee. Sounds a little....slightly choppy, and like a luxury car when said allowed, I'm sorry to say. Then again, who am I to judge on names? If I had ever had a chance to get married and get a daughter, I'd try to convince the wife that Anastasia or Aurora would be a proper name for a child.


But it's the best of news that there's no health defects apparent in her or health problems with you, DG. That's absolutely awesome.
