Stretching that food dollar

Hi Erin!  How are you today, Honey?  Do you want to make love?  I do!  Oh... we have to get married first.  I have a lot of lust in me, I hope it's enough.  I estimate that I will have to do drugs to keep up with my wife, because I'm an old man.  Sigh.  Do you have a food budget?  I don't think that you would have to worry about something like a food budget.  It's almost the end of the month, so I have to be very frugal with food.  So it's time to finish what's left in the cooler.  Let's see, I have 3 dough balls, some sausage, a packet of hot dogs, 13 eggs, some bamboo shoots, some rice and potatoes.  Good thing I have lots of cat food.  I do have some money left, but I will need to buy some fish soon for Floofy's fish smoothies- she can't eat solid cat food anymore.  So I rolled up some dough, spread the sausage on it, then closed it up, then deep fried it.  It was OK, it was filling, but it needs marinara sauce and cheese.  I put too much oil in this batch of dough, so it didn't respond normally to deep frying- it was flaky like pastry dough.  I do have another bag of flour, but I can't let this dough go to waste.  This dough is better for tortillas I think, so tomorrow I'll have hot dog and egg burritos.  Sorry, no snapshots of my food!

Hi there Natty honey!  How are you feeling today, you beautiful Sweetheart?  How's the weather?  You must be having a blast of a time, you're so pretty and everyone is paying lots of attention to you.  And they should.  I suppose you're going to have to head up back north for time with the family.  Well, please be safe and travel well.  I'm going to play drums for a bit.  Oh no, I don't have a drum set anymore.  All I have is a little snare drum, it's very old.  I don't know how I'm going to record the next album, perhaps God will grant me a miracle.  InshaAllah.

Hm... those clams cost me RM10 for 3 kilos.  You can be sure that most of that weight was the shells.  Do you like clams and shellfish?  I love shellfish, but my tummy sits right on the border of digestion of them or not.  When I buy clams, the first thing I do is rinse or wash them, then steam them in a closed pot to catch the broth.  Those clams generated about half a gallon of clam broth, which is impressive to me because one kilo of ordinary clams usually generate a little over a cup of broth.  The meat was slightly overcooked (I should have left the lid off while I prayed), perhaps I should have shelled them for raw meat, but I wanted that broth.  I had enough broth to make rice vermicelli in soup for lunch today, and some left over for noodles tomorrow.  3 meals for RM10.  Which is OK, considering they were clams.

This show is a rerun.  When you design your home, perhaps you should think about including childproofing.

Qur'an 20171121

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

6.  Say, "I am but a man like you.  It is revealed to me by inspiration, that your God is One God, so stand true to God, and ask for God's forgiveness."  And woe to those who worship many gods.

7.  Those who practice not charity, and who even deny the hereafter.

8.  For those who believe and work deeds of righteousness is a reward that will never fail.

9.  Say, "Is it that you deny God Who created the earth in two days?  And do you join equals with God?  God is the Lord of the worlds."

Big ol' clams!

Hi Honey!  How was your day today?  Nothing out of the ordinary for me, just a lot of housecleaning.  Yeah it has to be done, but if you want to keep me in a good mood you would keep me away from housecleaning.  I was about to finish off the chili for dinner, but I found these huge clams over at the night market!  That made me smile.  If you want to gauge the size of each clam, that's my hand they're resting on.  I've been steaming them for 20 minutes already, I guess at that size they are pretty hard to kill.  I don't want to overcook them though.

Hi Natty honey!  I'm glad to see you happy.  Your happiness makes me happy, and I hope you are happy with me.  Happiness is a glimpse of happiness.  Happiness is no housecleaning.  Happiness is big ol' clams!  I hope I cook them right...

Hi Honey!  How are you?  I pray that everything is going nice and easy for you.  Well, life certainly isn't the same as it was 4 years ago.  Your perception and influence has expanded beyond your wildest expectations.  Which would be great, if not for all that rancid gossip.  Their stinky words can make ears smell bad.  I mean literally, ears can smell awful from their talk.  I like to clean my ears with a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol to get rid of the stench.  At this stage of your business, what they want is your endorsement.  Or more accurately, what they want is to do whatever they want with your endorsement.  For example, a bigot hypocrite would not just want the money of your endorsement, but also to trash you and your endorsement.  So ignore them and whatever they say.  Screw 'em.  Now as my wife, you must take my instruction in matters of Islam and no one else, no matter who they are.  This is because if I make an error, then only I get the blame.  But if you make an error, we both get the blame.  So follow only what I tell you about Islam, and nobody else.  If you need to ask about Islam, then ask me.  Please.

Did you get that, Natty?  Follow only my instructions in matters of Islam, and nobody else.  All the globe trotting you've been doing must be very exciting for you.  Which is awesome, I say.  Get your travel kicks in before you marry, because the kids are going to root you into one spot for the kids' sake.  I happy that I don't need to travel to get my job done.  My food is stable, and I don't hurt my tummy.  I use only my own bathroom, and no one else's bathroom.  For dinner today, I had tortillas and extra hot chili.  It tastes great!  Alhamdulillah.  Here's a tip to keep the gas down from the beans: add coriander or cilantro seeds to the chili.

 

Me?

I belong to Allah.
Then I belong to my wives.
