(germans always think i am being sarcastic when i say that)
ruaok

krazykiwiMB

yllona
/me heads to cookingbrainz to discuss her lunch of smoked trout, heirloom tomatoes, cottage cheese & multi-grain wasa

yllona heads to cookingbrainz to discuss her lunch of smoked trout, heirloom tomatoes, cottage cheese & multi-grain wasa
krazykiwiMB
i'm not convinced about multi-grain wasa :)
yllona
krazykiwiMB: i like it a lot. i enjoy *crunch*, and the flavor is quite robust
hawke_ joined the channel
krazykiwiMB
i was thinking it's probably a weak imitation of real knäckebröd
yllona looks up knäckebröd
but then realised, it's actually what I bought last week for the short kid, who won't eat real knäckbröd anyway
hard bread
yllona
ah.. yes it's hard bread. we get some really good versions here.
krazykiwiMB
we buy it in giant round discs here, I was quite mystified what it might be when i first encountered it
and asked my mother in law if it was perhaps some kind of disposable thing to stand hot pots on (hey! that's kinda what it looks like!)
yllona
not that i've moved back into teh city proper, i can get all that stuff fresh from local bakers
ruaok was fed knäckbröd plenty as a kid
krazykiwiMB
so are my kids :)
but one is going through a stage of "I can't eat anything that everyone else in the family eats, and that i've eaten my entire life"
and i choose my battles, knäckebröd not being one of them
yllona
even the super market versions are decent == wasa
krazykiwiMB
yeah, wasa is the handy dandy square and fits in lunchboxes supermarket grab here too :)
cos you know, 2 foot wide discs of it just... .don't
ruaok
lol
yllona
krazykiwiMB: at the same age as your youngest, i refused to eat anything but peanut butter and fresh jam, and would only sleep in my bed backward (head & pillow facing the headboard)
krazykiwiMB
hahahaha
she's not that bad
her big sister was, she decided she was a vegetarian, other than things made from bacon
ruaok
bacontarian!
krazykiwiMB
well, we were at a grill party about 3 months into this
ruaok
that's my favorite group of vegetarians
krazykiwiMB
and she was making a fuss when the host served her up sausages
yllona
the PB & J thing really scared my folks because i'm so small. but the pediatrcian said "it's got everything she needs as long as you can get her to drink milk"
krazykiwiMB
so we told her those were made of bacon
ruaok
wow.
krazykiwiMB
by the end of the week, she thought even chicken was made of bacon, and was back to eating normal
ruaok
and she ate them.
LOL
I had friends who went veggie and started not being as healthy.
krazykiwiMB
i still use it on her when she screws her nose up at something "but it's made of bacon"
and she's 16 :)
ruaok
a visit to the doctor and he said: eat meat!
yllona
yep. kids will make you crazy(if you aren't already)
krazykiwiMB
yllona: my brother got about the same thing, but with cheese sandwiches and apples (apparently, a near perfect diet, according to the doctor)
yllona
ruaok: yes, exactly, i can't be a vegetarian. doctor said the same thing -- eat meat!
krazykiwiMB
i can't be a vegetarian for several reasons
but the main one is, i really really like meat
srotta
8)
I have the same problem. 8)
ruaok raises his hand
Although I have to admit, I've never really understood why people are so fussed about, for example, having different kinds of food in some get-together so that everyone can eat.
ruaok
vegatarians just taste so damned good.
krazykiwiMB
heh, reminds me of telling the above story, in front of youngest daughter
srotta
Everyone chooses their diet. Vegetarian disher are pretty much edible by everyone. If they choose not to eat them, that's their choice.
krazykiwiMB
she asks 'what's a vegetarian', we explained, she asked why people wouldn't eat meat
we say "because they like animals, and think they are cute, among other reasons"
(she is only 8 after all)
she says "but i like animals, they are cute!", we say "oh, are you going to be a vegetarian then?
she humms and hahs, and finally says "no, i think i will be a school teacher or a singer"
srotta

krazykiwiMB
(again, still better than her big sister, who wanted to be prime minister... or a dolphin)
ruaok
hey one out of two aint bad
krazykiwiMB
she's a good swimmer, she'll make a great dolphin
oh dear
someone, who is not me, is editing track names on nirvana bootlegs

my bad
ruaok
grrr. i wish people would stop asking to place ads on mb.org
annoying.
krazykiwiMB
i'm surprised people don't put more rubbish into annotations and edit notes
although i've seen that a couple of times
BrianG
hey kiwi
krazykiwiMB
hola!
i am retagging 50 Gb of ripped music in picard
and it didn't crash yet, although it did take out my wireless router a couple of times
BrianG
picard.. QT?
krazykiwiMB
more importantly, it has finally learnt to not insist that everything is only 99% right no matter how many times you run it
which is why i am doing the whole lot, i never dared before
and yes
and yes, i am doing it in batches, i didn't throw all 50 Gb at it at once, and therefore, at the MB servers for lookups :)
plus it's all already tagged and mbid'ed, i'm just re-running it, cos most of it predates puid's, picard qt, etc
yllona
