Morning all. Can't stay too long. Going to go out and spend another great day outdoor (as in avoiding that *cough cough* project in the background).

  Not going to go to the Vancouver Aquarium as planned (forgot today is Sun Run) so we're heading elsewhere.

  EDIT: Ms. Lil Me, you are one mighty brave woman to go on patrol duty.

speaking of patrolling did they ever catch that arsonist guy burning homes? I remember people doing patrols on the tv, haven't heard anything of it since.

Afternoon!  What a nice day, finally.
 *yawn* the McChicken combo is going to be the death of me.
 
 The lacrosse game was fun, even though we got slaughtered 6-0.  Young Master LM played a good defence.  Despite his size (a foot shorter and half the weight) of his opponents, he tried to single-handedly clear the house on every shift.  Unfortunately, he often ended up lying on the ground... ah well, he ran hard and earned his McLunch.
 
 Dinner tonight is teriyaki salmon, wild rice, veg and I'm gonna pan sear some halibut cheeks in garlic, just for fun.
 
 What's going on out there wit everyone else?

ah poor guy, don't know what it's like to be shorter then everyone. But I do know what its like to be a foot taller then everyone.

I went to the doctor. Of course I had a blast. ;)

more like getting ridiculed for not coming to the doctor sooner.
plus my temperature was 97.1 (normal is 98.6) and I was sweating. So my temp is probably much lower. yikes.

 Greetings. What  a weird day. Rain then sunshine then rain... etc. Like the weather couldn't make up its mind. Decided to head down to Guildford Mall. Looks pretty dead place to me... no wonder they're thinking of tearing down the place and building a newer looking place.

  I gotta ask yer, Ms. Lil Me about those pan-seared halibut cheeks. Sounds mighty interesting and tasty. Do you buy like the whole head fish? Or am I missing something here?[/DIV]

No, you can buy just the cheeks from a fishmarket or whatever.  I got some from the Stupidstore, but TNA probably has them, too.
 
 EDIT: Damn, that was some foul halibut.  Took it out of the package, and it smelled like it had been soaked in ammonia overnight.  Word to the wise- don't buy fish from the StupidStore.  Given the customer service issues at the StupidStore, I'm not even going to bother asking for a refund.

Bummer Lil Me.  Aside from being a waste, you have to miss out on yer treat. Stupidstore (and it's hilarious that you call it that, because that's what I call it too...LOL) is the last place I'd consider getting seafood.  Strangely enough, Costco has excellent seafood....when they have it.  I do all my shopping at QF, except for seafood.  Seems to be hit and miss.

  There are lots of good places here for seafood...so I usually get it from a seafood place.....or you can get it right off the boats here as well.

  I would definitely take it back to the stupidstore and get my money back.....I hate it when these places get away with selling crap.

Hi P.C.!  I know I should take it back, but I just can't be bothered.  If it was from Safeway, then I would.  Definately.  But it's such a pain at the customer service desk at StupidStore- take a number and wait while the staff count huge garbage bags full of pop bottles.
 I agree about Costco seafood- or Thrifty foods.  Safeway is ok.
 My mom buys fish from T&T, Lonsdale Quay, Granville Island or Steveston ONLY.  But I don't have time to drive all over hell's half acre for dinner.
 
 How was your day, P.C.?

Good thanks Lil Me.  Finished the counters today, so all I have left is the backsplash.  All the counters needed new sub-base and hubby did all the prep for me while I was away which was so nice.  He does things very differently than I do.....like...correctly.  He's very precise, which made my job much easier.  I'm a 'just do it' kind of person, and he's a planner......thank gawd for that.  It's looking pretty fine.....another day or two will have 'er beat.

  Sorry about the game....but it sounds like Lil Lil Me had a good time, and that's what it should be all about.

Evening to all you ladies. :)  *looks around to see if there are any guys posting away*

Dinner was caesar salad, steamed asparagus and herbed baked chicken.  Yum. :)  

Yeah, seafood at Stupidstore is terrible.  I would only trust the frozen prawns or scallops.  I don't trust their fresh stuff.  Steveston has the best seafood, right from the boat.  I know seafood dealers bring millions of cash in suitcases and buy cases and cases of fresh salmon.

Hey y'all,

  Oh ah, that sucks about the fish there, Missy Lil Me. I totally hear ya. I think I bought some trout there one day and boy, did they stunk to high heaven once I removed the package. Must have been sitting there for a long time. I usually get their salmon, they're sorta fresh looking-ish.

  Debating whether I should make fish head curry. My hubby says 'no, no, no, no, no'. He doesn't want to see eyeballs peering out at him but I tell him, they're my favorite part to eat. BHAHAHAHA. *evil chuckle*
