I know I'll regret asking, but why did you cook two different types of
brown rice? What's the point of cooking separate meals? (Things
haven't changed much since you got divorced.) I'll take a guess: you
bought too much of the short grain and needed to use it up. It's a sad
commentary on your cooking when you consistantly say things just aren't
appealing.

Here's a hint: eating rice day after day is pretty boring no matter how
you spice it up.
