Thursdays suck  
It should be official, every work place should allow its employees a day when they come in, snap at everyone, be completely bitchy and not feel guilty. That day should be named as Thursday. Hell, I do it every week anyway - wouldn't take much for the rest of the word to toe the line...

It's bucketing down with rain for the first time in weeks which of course means that no one is driving over 20 mph meaning that traffic is just an absolute bloody nightmare. A 45 minute journal took an hour and fifteen minutes, and forced me to stop off at Starbucks to buy coffee only to find that the girl hadn't put the extra shot in like I asked. She charged me for it though...

So today sucks.

Oh, and if you were wondering where I stand on the stock.no stock debate? Definitely not - no way on this earth. Nor do I salt the water, I sometimes put a drizzle of olive oil in but other than that? Nothing. Matt/Monkey on the other hand, not only cooks it in stock but also salts the water as well. He likes to think of himself as a good cook as well... (I will cook rice in stock, depending on the type of rice)

Last thing to say - voting has now started for the first challenge at [livejournal.com profile] zeppo_stillness; - we had a great turnout for the first challenge and these guys worked hard on their icons. Please go show them your support! (you do have to join in order to vote, but it's quick and painless!) - and in other voting news, WKA voting is ticking over nicely. I'm really pleased to see that every single category is being tightly fought - there's no real runaway winners even at this early stage. To my mind that shows promise in the quality of nominations this time around!

I don't salt the water either, I don't see the point in raising the boiling point and my blood pressure, the pasta still gets cooked and I'm sure I still eat more than enough salty things.

I rarely use stock, but then I'm a pants cook:) I only like making cakes and biscuits, everything else is too stressful! (This is the result of a bad options column in the third year which resulted in two years of form Xs to over-plan a weekly meal. Should I ever need to make a meal for a family of four which includes a manual worker, a vegetarian, a teenager and a toddler I'm sure I'll be more than able to justify the nutritional value of my choices!)

I normally find that Tuesday is the sucky day of the week, but I'm quite happy to reconsider the suckiness of Thursday...and no doubt will as the day progresses!*bg*
