Ex-Con
Whenever i get dressed up
I feel like an ex-con
Trying to make good
Jean jacket and tie
Feel like such a lie
When i go to your house
I feel like I'm
Casing the joint
In the grocery store
In line behind a mother and child
I'm going to take that child
See because alone in my room
I feel like such a part of the community
But out on the streets
I feel like a robot by the river
Alone in my room
I feel such a warmth for the community
But out on the streets
I feel like a robot by the river
Looking for a drink


Your Face
More beautiful than the sun.
More beautiful than the rain.
More beautiful than all these things,
was your face when you came.
Wilder than the ocean.
Wilder than storm clouds.
Compared to this,
these things were tame.
You face when you came.

But oh, when you faked it.
It was the most beautiful of all.
Of all, when you faked it.
It was the most beautiful of all.

Just remembered this idea I had a few months ago and had to get it down:

Inverted Pizza!

Talking points:
• The slices point towards
the outer edge
• The crust forms a small circle in the middle
• The hole in the middle can be a holder for a cup of Ranch or a beverage
• You can wear it as a hat - Get hungry? Just reach up, pull off a slice!


See crappy rendering below. Baking an inverted pizza is on my bucket list.

Soyrizo Scramble for Dullards™

Alright this one is easy and cheap, I'll even work in estimated costs:

1. Starts out like most scrambles, oil in the pan, heat it up, toss in garlic and onions. (What, like 25 cents maybe?)
2. Throw in some Trader Joe's Soyrizo, stir it up. This stuff is good, the only bad thing you could say about it is that it's a little rich in sodium. (The whole log is $2, you're gonna use about 50 cents worth of it.)
3. 2 eggs - crack 'em, toss 'em in. (I can't remember how much eggs cost, let's say 75 cents.)
4. Toss in some veggies: tomatoes, scallions, etc. (Hmm, 50 cents.)
5. Stir, let it go till the eggs are to your liking. Fín. Fun.

1 serving
Cost: $2.00
Optionals: Potatoes, cheese, black beans.
Didn't take a photo but this pretty much looks like it:

Tofu Scramble for Dummies™

Heat up some olive (or canola) oil, garlic, onion, shallots, whatever...on medium.
Mix half a thing of tofu (water pressed out of it into paper towel) with 1 tbsp turmeric spice, 1 tbsp salt, half a lemon's juice, curry spice optional.
Toss in the tofu to the pan. Turn up to almost highest heat.
Chop up a little bit of potato, toss 'er in.
Let it cook a few minutes, then toss in some spinach, a lot of it, it cooks way down.
Chop some veggies (bell peppers, tomato, etc.), toss them in about 5 minutes later
Cook it for a while, takes a long time to cook the tofu and potato.
Garnish w/ parsley, salt, pepper, salsa fresca if you have it.

There you have it - Post comments/corrections/complaints below!
