People are taking turns bringing over dinner to be helpful while Betsy
recovers. My sister was bringing lasagna, and announced beforehand
that she was making a separate one for me w/o noodles. When she
arrived, she announced that she has used spaghetti squash instead of
the noodles. Why the F--k hadn't she just left out the noodles and
not put in goddamned SQUASH. I told her that I wouldn't eat such a
thing. It's OK anyway, since I had already had a big lunch, 3 duck
wings and some of my wife's cashew chicken. The cashew chicken had
cornstarch in it, so by my rules I had to go to the gym and do one set
of at least 10 reps on all 18 machines, with enough weight that it
hurt. I figure if I eat too much carb, I burn it off right away
before my body gets a chance to know it's there. Kinda like feeding a
stray dog, in that I don't want my body to start expecting excess
glucose. I still have 3 more duck wings left.

So this woman goes out of her way to make something special thinking you
could eat it... and you tell her you wouldn't eat it. Not couldn't....
not didn't want to... but wouldn't eat it.

Next time, don't be surprised if she doesn't even try. I know I wouldn't.

I stopped long ago expecting Bryan to be pleasantly impressed by any
food items he does not personally discover. Music too, and most
everything else. He's funny that way.

I will say this though, I've never eaten anything gross that Bryan
prepares. It's not always stellarly good the way he makes it out, but
it's not gross. I've had some stellarly good thing he's prepared, like
that "best smoked chicken" I ever had! Of course it did take a LONG
time and many beers to cook! ;-)

Spaghetti squash is an excellent and tasty substitute for pasta for
those trying to avoid simple carbs. We'll steam it to eat with tomato
sauce or with meat sauce. Scratching it lengthwise with a fork
produces the "spaghetti" effect.

Eggplant is another good substitute for pasta.

Lasagna implies layers. If you expected just meat sauce with cheese,
you should have questioned her the second time she said "lasagna w/o
noodles."

Maybe for you. I am not crazy about. I occasionally eat small amounts of
it, but I wouldn't call it a good substitute for pasta.

I wouldn't either. I happen to like green or wax beans with pasta sauce on
them. But would I use them in lasagna? No.

I'd rather have no substitute than something like squash. It could
have been
worse. It could have had that repulsive cauliflower starch
substitute. She wasn't
offended. We're pretty close, and she knows I'm really picky about
food.
I used to live with her, and in most ways she cooks like our mother,
but better
because she doesn't make any of the bad stuff our mother made. Her
sons both
low carb, and use stuff like squash, and her daughter does weird
macrobiotic
stuff.

The reply I expected, and I hope she doesn't. I had been led to
believe one thing,
then someone decided to change it up. Lasagna w/o noodles does not
imply lasagna
with squash instead of noodles.

well, since the lasagna is the noodle part, lasagna without noodles implies
nothing at all.

The nerve of these people! I suggest you tell them to make SURE that
they check with you personally before even considering to cook anything
that you might eat. Better yet, why don't you just call them and TELL
them what to cook for you and how to cook it.

Or you could just stay home and cook for yourself. This way you always
get a good meal and you don't actually have to interact in person with
anyone. Life is much easier when it is just you, your stove and your
keyboard.

Throw in a cat or two and we can call you Sheldon Jr.

I do have a cat. One cat.

I put a layer of zucchini in my lasagna to lower the carbs. Some people use
eggplant. And some just use the vegetables and no noodles. But spaghetti
squash? I don't think so.

My mom used to make it when she and my dad were on Weight Watchers. She
never fed it to my brother and I. We got the real thing, which wasn't very
good because her sauce came from a packet.

A few years ago I saw a recipe for spaghetti squash that sounded good in
that we all liked the other ingredients that went into it. What we didn't
like was the spaghetti squash. That thing was a pain to cook and another
pain to get the strands out. I never did get all of the strands out and
just gave up. When I went to buy one the only ones they had were HUGE!
I've heard that they can be cooked in the microwave but there was no way I
could fit it in mine. Mine isn't tiny but neither is it as big as some are.

The end result was just inedible and a waste of money.

As for having other people cook for me, this is something I wouldn't much
like or appreciate. Having lived on my own for many years, I have no
problem throwing together a quick meal. And I am perfectly happy eating
things that others might not consider a meal. Like popcorn and soup.

I'm not sure if zuchinni is consided a squash (?) but one year a friend of
mine gave me a giant bag of zuchinni from her garden. Not knowing what to
do with all that, I just invented a zuchinni lasagna and it turned out
fantastic.

Just substitute zuchinna slices for the lasagna noodles in your favorite
lasagna recipe. I like the one on the back of the San Giorgio lasagna
noodle box.

there are noodles made out of rice and water only, also quinoa and water
only. I eat those, it's good for you, and no flour. H

I don't think flour is the issue here. I think it's carbs. And those are
high in carbs.

Where do you live? Certainly not in an area that has Taco Time. Otherwise
you wouldn't be saying that.

A high carb meal isn't quantitatively like a drink to an alcoholic,
but it can be pretty similar qualitatively. Any experienced low
carber knows that to keep losing, you are best off not giving your
body the expectation that it will be getting more. That's why the two
times that I ate what I considered excess carbs, I went up to the gym
and lifted. Today I had a few extra grams, and followed it up with an
hour and a half of skating at the skatepark. Burn up those carbs
before your body realizes they're there at all.
Here is the fat Bryan:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/1552229...in/photostream

I was quite upset when my band broke up, and I overate. My problem,
and I never asked for empathy. Now I'm putting that behind me, and
every bit of fat I put on while wallowing. In a couple weeks, I'll
break 180, down from 200. and will eventually be below 170.

I am. I have two sisters, and she's the one I like, in spite of the
fact that she
is a Republican. I have two brothers too. I seldom see either of
them. I don't
dislike them, but we have little in common. The oldest one is very
funny, and
when I do see him--because I am friends with his daughter--we have
some laughs,
but I dislike his wife. The middle brother (I am the youngest
sibling) has become
a fundie Christian, and is just weird. I really should invite the two
brothers to
hang out sometime because it might be interesting.

I am. I have two sisters, and she's the one I like, in spite of the
fact that she
is a Republican. I have two brothers too. I seldom see either of
them. I don't
dislike them, but we have little in common. The oldest one is very
funny, and
when I do see him--because I am friends with his daughter--we have
some laughs,
but I dislike his wife. The middle brother (I am the youngest
sibling) has become
a fundie Christian, and is just weird. I really should invite the two
brothers to
hang out sometime because it might be interesting.

We didn't need anyone bringing us meals in the first place since I,
not my wife, do 99% of the cooking when I'm home, you ignorant ass who
doesn't know how to handle attribution, or is perhaps just too
slovenly to do so.

note how the state has made you think lesser of your sister because
she's GOP. divide and conquer.

No. More like, "Think, Susan. You know I don't eat squash." I
wasn't hostile to
her, partly because she has had a bad memory since she was a
teenager. We
love each other so much that I get along with her in spite of her
fascist leanings.

OK, Bryan, repeat after me:

"Gee, thanks, Sis. That looks great. I'm not very hungry now so I
think I'll save it for later when I have a better appetite."

Now stand in front of a mirror and keep saying that until you can do
it with a straight face.
