Recipe: Cauliflower Pizza Crust

Taken from this video. Be sure to use non-frozen cauliflower; I used frozen and I think it had too much water—see the wet spots on the parchment in the photo below. Still pretty good, but a fork was needed. Ingredients 2 cups grated cauliflower 1 cup grated hard cheese (parmesan, romano) 1 egg Directions 1. Recipe: Cauliflower Pizza Crust

Story: Quarantine

The story below is a work of fiction. Top link in my news story feed was a travel blogger having to file for unemployment because of COVID-19. Imagine being an “influencer.” Calling yourself that. What to put on the census, what do you tell people at parties. Practice saying it in front of the mirror Story: Quarantine

A List of Movies I Refuse to Watch

Don’t take this seriously; I’m just having some fun in an “unreasonable jerk” kind way, here. Most of these were inspired from IMDB’s top list, but their popularity isn’t necessarily why I won’t watch them (there’s a number of movies I do like that are on that list). These movies listed I hear/read too much A List of Movies I Refuse to Watch

Photo Dump: Hawk Nelson, Pillar, Still Remains at the Purple Door Fest (August 19, 2005)

Only two worthwhile photos of Hawk Nelson. Still Remains played a small stage; they had just released their first album a few months prior, and I don’t think a lot of people knew them. I don’t like Pillar‘s music that much but I remember they were great live performers.

Links of Possible Relevance, Part 33

The Minäverse is free on Kindle (for now) Internet friend and fellow author Jill Domschot put up her newest book on Amazon for free, until April 10. Also, my two books are always free over at Smashwords, but go get you some Minäverse first. Predator Helicopter Scene – Long Tall Sally It’s a movie, sure, Links of Possible Relevance, Part 33

Photo Dump: Haste the Day, Stretch Arm Strong, Squad Five-0 at the Purple Door Fest (August 23, 2004)

For some reason I didn’t get a lot of shots of Haste the Day. I think I was talking to someone during most of their set. I discovered their last album, Coward, a few months ago, after years of not paying attention to them after seeing them on their final tour at the now-defunct Altar Photo Dump: Haste the Day, Stretch Arm Strong, Squad Five-0 at the Purple Door Fest (August 23, 2004)

Photo Dump: Showbread, Far-Less, Bradley Hathaway, The Chariot at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia (October 23, 2004)

Nearly certain these were taken at the same show the photos of Acceptance and Dead Poetic are from. I recall He Is Legend playing but I didn’t get any photos of them (I met a friend, who lived hundreds of miles away, by surprise there, so I was talking to him). This was when Bradley Photo Dump: Showbread, Far-Less, Bradley Hathaway, The Chariot at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia (October 23, 2004)

Photo Dump: Acceptance and Dead Poetic at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia (October 23, 2004)

Found a bunch of old live show photos on my external hard drive that I thought I’d share. Here’s Acceptance and Dead Poetic at the First Uni Church in Philly, 16 years ago (goodness). They’re not terribly good photos, but with shows like these where it’s easy to get close to the band, you can Photo Dump: Acceptance and Dead Poetic at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia (October 23, 2004)

Grimm’s The Four Skilful Brothers

I read Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales, cover to cover, and this story was the only one that wasn’t dark; in fact, it’s rather wholesome in a feuding siblings kind of way. It’s pretty telling the view of the world held by the Brothers Grimm, and probably most of Germany, if didactic literature for children had Grimm’s The Four Skilful Brothers

Recipe: Whole Roasted Cauliflower

I tried this specific recipe before but lost the link, and it took every brain cell and mouse-click finger energy to refind it. I’ll link back to the original recipe because it’s not bad as far as recipe sites go: there’s not a million ads and a novella of words to scroll past to get Recipe: Whole Roasted Cauliflower

Rare Video Footage of Jay in the Wild

This isn’t vanity—I was really checking my squat form, and it’s not the greatest. You’re supposed to go down far enough to “break parallel,” meaning your butt should go lower than your kneecaps so that your thighs angle down. I only have 230 lbs in the first video; my PR is 250 but even without Rare Video Footage of Jay in the Wild
