But it's all about the custard and carmelized sugar topping. It is NOT, I repeat NOT, banana pudding with carmelized sugar on top. That may LOOK like Creme Brulee, but it isn't. Not even close. It's freakin' banana pudding!!!
Now that may seem trivial to whine over Creme Brulee imposters, but this IS Whiners Anonymous and I knew you would all understand.

Queenie! Were you watching the same cooking show that I saw??? I think his name is Sam...and one of his slogans... is "I'm such a moron." He has a cute dog that sits in the kitchen and is allowed to taste some of the food. The other day he made his healthier/easier to make version of Creme Brulee just the way you described it. He also made non fat chips from wonton dough!!!
I need to check all that out so mr and I can try 'em all.UH-OH!!! I've gone OT bigtime in WA. oops.
Note to fellow whiners about Ann.....I hope that she doesn't watch the chef make diet cheesecake on the program....I don't think Queenie would survive that. He might substitute cottage cheese instead of real cream cheese??? (blech)
Queenie >>> First this:
and then this:.....
(I hope the couch is handy when she falls)

CMC, noooo, not watching a cooking show, I was out for dinner at a rather fine restaurant with fabulous food and service fit for a queen...well, you get my drift...and after looking at the dessert menu, torn between the white chocolate cheesecake and Creme Brulee, I asked the waiter which he recommended and he said "by far the Creme Brulee."
Imposter! Fraud! Freaking Banana Pudding Brulee Wannabe!
But I'm over it now.
Teach, that sounds very painful and doncha love it when you go to someone to fix the pain and they tell ya "this is gonna hurt!"
It's Indian Summer here, so can't whine about the weather.
So I will whine about Zipperman's teef. That's just gotta be painful?
Happy Sunday Whiners

My whine is that I have much too much work to do and not enough Sunday to do it in! Somewheres in there I need to make a pan of homemade lasagna, requested by the boys, and learn a bunch of new stuff for my job, and get my homework done for another work meeting I have tonight... and I also need to watch my Cowboys whomp the Packers!
I'll never get it all done!

whineless this morning! Is thatteh same as being speechless?
I have a housemate now for the next 3 months, he is a friend and an addict in recovery so it should be good. One complaint already though. He woke up at 5am this morning and was so quiet but when he left at 6am he did not leave me a coffee and brekky!

So...uh...brekky is breakfast? Or am I slow? Both?
Good news...talked to another superior today...and we have something in common. He totally understands depression and how it is being on meds. I have someone in my corner if I get any more crap.
The other superior, the one who didn't give a crap that I have a good reason for being tired at work (I wasn't looking for sympathy, only her understanding so it doesn't reflect poorly upon evaluation of my work performance), is someone who I have been getting along with very well...and now I don't want to talk to her.
When anyone disses me like that...I want nothing to do with him/her. I'm good at avoiding people, but not at the workplace (obviously). What a stupid problem...but, I don't know what to do.
Something clicked yesterday...maybe it's just me, but she seems like a shallow/fake person. What covered that up for the longest time was her ability to charm...she's hilarious. Her ammunition got turned on me yesterday...I'd seen her do it to other people and I didn't care because she didn't do it to me (ah...shame on me). Now that I'm getting some of the vitriol...of course I'm going to get mad. The whole thing is...disappointing.
Is it me? I'm a bit disappointed in myself that I didn't see this sooner, especially given how she talks about other people. How shallow of me to selectivly ignore that because we 'clicked'. Life lessons everywhere, I suppose. No matter how she behaves from this point on I won't trust her again.
Sorry, I wish that was funny...I'll try harder next time. Take it easy, all.
