It’s very tasty. Not the prettiest to look at but very tasty. Cold, it’s a salad. Heated up, it’s good over pasta or rice.  
I hope it gets added to the recipe blog. It should be called “Rosie’s Italian Flavored Thing”

Today I went to the bookstore to buy many books because every time I tell my students to read a book, they tell me that the ones there are all too boring. So I just know that they’ll read now that I’ve bought many of the exciting ones that I purchased. Right? 😃

Then I came home and scooped poop for about 45 minutes.

I’m living the life!!!

I was on the phone with RT while I was cruising around the yard and I said, this is the crappiest conversation that we’ve ever had. 😛

Sounds like a romance more than a food item. 😃  
ETA: I’m supposed to be working on applications right now. How am I doing??

Back from dindin at the good local steakhouse. I had a really good ribeye with a baked N.O.T. and a sallit. OYKW had a tbone with a baked N.O.T. and a sallit. We had jalapeno poppers as an appetizer. No dessert cause we were both stuffded. Plus we hardly get dessert when we eat out.

**StickyBuns** sometimes life is a big heapin’ pile of doodoo. 😃

**Rosie** for it to be a proper Mumper recipe it should be “ **Rosie’s** Eyetalian Flavored Thing.”

Wow - it’s 7:30 and still a bit light out. 😛

We just finished eating some snow crab legs - they were good, but not nearly enough of them. I didn’t want to take out a second mortgage. I’m about to go back to crocheting Peeps - I found patterns for the bunnies and the chicks - I just need to get some stuffing. That’s on the agenda for tomorrow.

Hope I feel fully human tomorrow - I’m still sorta ick, but getting there. Anyway, time to assume the position! _ **MWAH!!** _

**gardentraveler** was on the SDMB today, but the last time she posted was thirteen days ago. I hope she’s okay.

I am eating a granola bar with a spoon because I didn’t realize that they had RAISINS! in them when I bought them and I don’t want to throw them away so I tore it apart and picked out all of the raisins.

I don’t think they say “Eyetalian” up there. I think they would say, “Rosie’s 142nd street flavored thing.”

I could be wrong, mind you.

I seem to remember that one of the few foods Garfield the cat wouldn’t eat was raisins.

I ordered a croissant at a McGill cafeteria the other month and I didn’t realize until I bit into it that there was a raisin stuck to the bottom. ☹

A yogurt covered raisin is still a !@#$% raisin.

I like raisins. Pishachios, not so much.
