Innovation!

A follow-up to my prior post - in true Doctor tradition, we took something that was already fantastic and made it moreso. Behold: The S'MOreo: Take a regular Oreo, split it in half. Use 2 Hershey bar squares and a marshmallow done to your taste preference. Put it between the 2 halves of Oreo and abbondanza! Deliciozo! Various other Italian expressions of yum! :D

I smell like campfire and am going to bed as soon as I reply to stuff on here, because I'm dedicated like that. :)

Life Imitates Art. Ugh...

Our four beagles are all shelter rescues - three of them we took into our house as the last resort before they were euthanized, and ended up keeping them all. They are wonderful and each has their own nutty personality. So I started writing this fluffy thing mainly for Mr. Timelord's enjoyment and mine, involving the Doctor, Rose, and some "rescue dogs" from another planet wreaking havoc on the TARDIS.

AS I WAS WRITING IT, I heard a crash from our bedroom. Max, in an effort to drink the last of my last night's bedside glass of water, knocked over my bedside lamp that Mr. Timelord made for me, and it broke into a billion pieces.

True story. I think I'm done writing for the morning lol.

A Who-Inspired recipe...sort of. Anyway, it's tasty. :)

My brother is a ribs guy - makes his own rubs and sauces and they're delicious. I carry a notebook to write down ideas and snippets of dialogue. He has a notebook with recipe ideas and notes on spices. So, tonight, I decided to do a bit of crossover and come up with a rub. As I was raiding my spice cupboard, I had a bit of a giggle and made a rub with a couple ingredients that made me chuckle as I thought of the Doctor. Here it is, in order of how much I used largest to smallest:
Brown Sugar
Cumin
Cayenne Pepper
Garlic Powder
Chili Powder
White pepper
Ground Mustard
Lawry's seasoned salt
Lawry's seasoned pepper
Salt
Ginger <-- ha ha these ribs are rude, too.
Rosemary <--- get it? Rose?
(I have come to the conclusion that I need a life. But i'm okay with that.)
The end result of this rub is a nice heat that whispers "burn with me..."

***Before applying the rub, marinate the ribs in the following mixture: 1 cup of apple juice, a whole bunch of yellow mustard, and a dash of soy sauce.***

Cook on slow heat, and add your favorite sauce at the appropriate time. :)
