Passengers on a flight to Atlanta got the best surprise EVER this week. Penguins were traveling (first class no less) on the plane to a Discovery Channel movie premiere. They were the stars, natch. The flight attendents let two of them- Pete and PENNY- waddle around and greet their fellow flyers. Amazing. The name is appropriate since Penny of this blog is going to come back in her next life as a penguin. A super skinny curmudgeonly penguin, but a penguin no less. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/world/8432893/penguins-make-appearance-on-us-flight
The Lord blessed with me with a wonderful roommate, Doyle,
who happens to act as my live-in wife, making me dinner and reminding me to pack
breakfast/lunch. When I have a normal schedule and am home before 9pm dinner
usually awaits me but on days when I have events or Doyle has given up on
waiting up for me I have to make my own meals. The horror.
I try to avoid ordering out because A. waste of money B.
although I am slim, I usually eat garbage and I believe I’m rotting from the
inside out. I also don’t eat frozen meals because I believe the hype and it
just grosses me out. Actually, that’s a lie, I will eat Jimmy Dean Breakfast sandwiches
forever. How can I resist this sort of advertising - ask Emily, that's exactly how I am BEFORE breakfast:
In an effort to keep me alive, Doyle introduced me to Ziploc’s
Zip ‘n Steam Bags and seriously changed my life. These bags provide you with
the ease of cooking a nutritious steamed meal – in your microwave – in MINUTES.
I am the Anthony Bourdain of microwave cooking. I float around like Little Mermaid's Chef Louis singing about stuffing Ziploc Bags. I literally
throw the most random things in the bags, nuke them up and produce amazing chemical
free meals in under 15 mins.
Below is
one of my favorite meals, a Greek Chicken & Potatoes recipe from Ziploc (that I
like to pretend I came up with on my own when serving it to others). Yeah, I
successfully convinced my mom I can survive in the world with this one recipe.
Eat me.
Get these bags, pre-package your meals and freeze those
suckers – dinner ready for days. You should feel like a happy fat French chef when cooking, too.
