Killer Salad of Awesomeness and a Stoned Ferret
Sounds like it should be the name of some alternative band's next album...
Anyway...
See this?
This is the killer salad of awesomeness. I was getting it at the Salad Place of Awesomeness over on Belmont, but it occurred to me that I could (and in fact probably should) eat this every damn day, so I've started making large batches of it on my own so I have it for work each day. (Click on the pic if you actually want to see what's in it.) Anyway, a 'batch' of salad equals enough stuff to fill: the bowl of salad for dinner tonight, the big salad keeper bowl thing I bought just for the salad of awesomeness and half a gallon of a Ziplock suck-out-the-air bag. The bacon bits are made in the George Foreman grill so most of the fat is drained off. And really, that's the worst thing in there. The cheeses are white and the rest is veggies. I'm not a fan of drowning my food, so there's no dressing on it. I just dip my fork end in the dressing before each bite, so there's a bit of dressing and nothing is soggy. And this salad is AWESOME!
And now, because Sithdragn asked for it... a stoned ferret.
I mentioned a while ago that my dishwasher died. And it took my landlord two months to replace it. The real downside to this is that my apartment is not set up for doing dishes manually (single tank sink, ZERO counter space for a drying rack), so for things like breakfast, I took to using paper plates for a while. Magick found this HIGHLY agreeable! I would dust the bagel crumbs into the trash and then give her the paper plate. She would rub against it like a cat against something with catnip in it. Only... it was just a plate! She wasn't licking it like there was still food on it, she was just ROLLING AROUND on it!
(For those who haven't seen her lately, yes, Magick is adrenal. She's on meds, but she is losing her fur. It's mostly a cosmetic cancer (yes that does sound odd to me too) as it causes her to lose her hair, but it really doesn't do anything to the quality of life or life span of a female ferrets. It's different in boys, but really, she's okay. Just getting naked.)
Here she is rubbing her hands over her face. The only other time I've seen her do this is when she gets her face wet. She is not wet! She's just... tripping on a paper plate!
