Boring update

I don't have much to say, not much to update but Momma is getting pissy about the last post being there for a whopping two days. *grin*

So let's see. *crickets* Um...Hmmmm. I really don't have much to say.

The new receptionist is a 49er fan so I will allow her to stay even though she hasn't complimented my shoes. But one of my pressman complimented my cowboy boots the other day and then wanted to know why I wasn't wearing them today because they would have gone well with my jeans. And he's not even gay.

Football is almost over. I hate when football season is over. *pout* Go Pittsburgh.

I got a new cookbook. It's probably not the best for a diet. It's the Pillsbury Crescent roll cookbook. Like 100 recipes using crescent rolls.

I'm getting my roots touched up on Thursday. That's uber exciting. *yawn*

Ellen Degeneres is making me laugh my ass off today. When she talks about football she is just pee your pants hysterical.

That's it. That's all I got. Not a lot of creativity running through my veins these days. *shrug*

FTR, *I* was getting pissy too, but wasn't going to whine about it, like *some* people.

I can't say I've ever had the crescent roll thing. Sounds yummy.

Everybody needs a fashion savy pressman.

Also, I am trying to imagine 100 things to do with crescent rolls.

2 - roll around cheddar cheese chunk
3 - roll around American cheese chunk
4 - roll around asparagus spear
5 - roll around pickle
6 - roll around left over pizza
7 - roll around ?

Sample recipe. I've made these before and they are quite tasty.

Crab-filled Crescent Snacks

1 (6-oz.) can crabmeat, rinsed, well drained
1 (3-oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sliced green onions
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
2 (8-oz.) cans Pillsbury® Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon sesame seed

1. Heat oven to 375°F. Spray large cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In small bowl, combine crabmeat, cream cheese, onions and garlic salt; mix well.
2. Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles. Cut each triangle in half lengthwise to make 32 triangles.
3. Place 1 teaspoon crab mixture on center of each triangle about 1 inch from short side of triangle. Fold short ends of each triangle over filling; pinch sides to seal. Roll up. Place on sprayed cookie sheet.
4. In small bowl, combine egg yolk and water; mix well. Brush egg mixture over snacks. Sprinkle with sesame seed. Discard any remaining egg mixture.
5. Bake at 375°F. for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

I will do that, Glow.

I too love Cresent Rolls. I think I have that same book.

One easy recipe I know is to mix up some canned chicken (the kind you use for chicken salad - or is it for tuna fish?), add some cheese and mayo and bake that in one of those cresent wreath things. Delish.

I am anti-any recipe book that requires prepared foods (crescent rolls, Cool Whip, whatevah. I hate those Company's Coming books for just that reason).

So yes, I back Monsty up. It doesn't mean any less Bravie love, but there you are.

The Bob love, on the other hand, is wearing thin. *scowly face*

"Cresent rolls around poutine.

Isn't number 2 cannibalism? Pillsbury is a local company around here, and I'm pretty sure I would have heard if they were promoting cannibalism.

Cretin (which might be spelled differently, but I don't really care) is a cold, slightly jellied, salted, minced, cooked pork that Frenchies like.

Random Pillsbury factoid #1:

The Pillsbury buildings out west of Minneapolis have beautifully landscaped grounds, including a lovely big pond. This pond is very attractive to ducks because there are good nesting sites nearby. Lots & lots of ducks congregate there.

And every spring? Massive duck orgies happen all over the Pillsbury grounds. My friend who used to work there said it was embarrassing just to walk in from the parking lot during the duck mating season. She was surrounded by dozens & dozens of quacking, moaning ducks going at each other without any regard for public decorum! By the lake, in the parking lot, on the sidewalks f-ing ducks are everywhere.

Something to think about while you are popping your rolls of Pillsbury dough.

One of my favorite sayings when something goes wrong is "Fuck a duck." This gives it a whole new meaning.

I do love Ellen's football bits. I caught one last week where the lady wrote in about Ellen using the Hamburgler's picture to represent the Steeler's. Made me have gigglesnortpants.
