Convenience-optimized food

The hunt for therapist kibble.

I meant to post this earlier, but didn't quite get to it because I wasn't sure how best to indicate the thread about roasted chickpeas (with recipes). Fortunately, siderea has added links for the most interesting sub-discussions.

Anyway, if you're interested in food which is shelf-stable, quickly and neatly edible, palatable, and doesn't bounce your blood sugar, that's the place to go.

Interesting.

In other matters, you can direct your friend to look at what I posted today, which addresses what we discussed last night.

And yes, you can see the lightning through the snowstorm. I noticed this about ten minutes before we lost power for 12 hours.

I've done that, and dental problems might be a reasonable hypothesis, considering that the cat suddenly gave up on dried food a year ago.

Could you just see white flashes. or could you see actual bolts?

That whole section of the sky lit up behind the snow. I couldn't see the next street at the time, so it was significant.

I'm beginning to think that if I want to see lightning bolts amid snow, I need a human artist. Nature doesn't seem to provide that directly-- or at least having a lightning bolt which is close enough or with enough relatively clear air to see it *and* a human being with a camera pointed in the right direction is extremely unlikely.

Well, yeah, since it's in the midst of a major snowstorm. Thundersnows aren't small events. I suspect the lightning is cloud-to-cloud, not cloud-to-ground, also. It lit up the entire north, or the entire east, not just a small area, though the snow carried the light further.

The egg muffins sound intriguing; I forwarded a link with a recipe to jcbemis. I'm tempted to try it this weekend.
