Spaghetti squash is a great substitute. if you want a high pro sub, you can use rice noodles, they are a more friendly carb. especially brown rice noodles, a little harder to find though.

Heya Scoot,

I talked to ChrisButch aka Everest today and I told hym that everyone was asking about hym. Hy said hym and hys family are doing good and thanks for the support. I was hoping to start college in early July, but the college needs my transcripts from my high school and since the school board of Volusia County is slow as Molasses in a Vermont winter, the school hasn't received them. So I am shooting for August 30th now.

Hope Jo Jo had a good and safe flight from New York.

Good Morning Kitchen Patrons,

Jo - I hope you had a safe flight(s).. and are now happily dwelling in scoote's arms.

Zimmy - I feel your pain on the transcripts. I have been there a time or two.. have patience.. and look at it as having more time to enjoy the Summer. smiles.

freyja - thank you for the music...always a wonderful way to start and end a day. How are the ducks coming along?

lipstix - Hope you are not studying to hard over there. I remember what that was like as well. I had a wild moment the other day and thought about going back to school again.. however, I am not sure I could keep up with it all and everything else that goes on in Life. Maybe one class a semester... I am still mulling it over.

Waves to everyone.

*Leaves out a breakfast buffet of scrambled eggs, ham, bacon, steak, hashbrowns, corned beef hash, toast, bagels, english muffins, assorted fruits, and all the condiments to go with*

Oh and the most important part. Alot of tea and coffee. grins.





Have a peaceful day.

[Zimmeh]

Good Morning Jakee,

That is true since I get a few extra weeks with my oldest niece and nephew before they head home. Thanks for breakfast!!!

Hope you had a good Friday night, I am going to look for some really strong coffee..

Zimmy

[Zimmeh]

Good Morning Everyone,

Jake has breakfast down this morning and thank you!! I am going to see if I can find us some good music to wake us up...Except Jo Jo and Scoote, they need their sleep...

In honor of the King of Pop, here is one of the best songs he put out..
