After making a few things for the baby shower (i.e. making cupcake flags, favor tags and Menu signs) I just read and hung out with the pups (Reuben got a haircut and little Remy got spay today.... poor baby - more on her and her hopefully quick recovery tomorrow!). One thing we did watch, to end on a funny note, is clips of Ricky Gervais hosting the Golden Globes. I'm sorry, mean-spirited perhaps but funny nonetheless - this many cracks. me. up. Check it out if you haven't already:
Q: Do you like Ricky Gervais? Who is your favorite comedian? He is so wrong he's right - I love it. I'm a huge fan of him, Ron White and Lewis Black. Many others too - but they're at the top!
Q: What's your favorite grain? I can honestly say mine is rice. It's just the bomb. HOWEVER, quinoa is so dang good. I wish there was microwavable quinoa for the lazy lady like me. Is there? Must google...

I've never tried quinoa, but I keep hearing about it's benefits. Do you find it in the grocery store near the rice section?
I like Dane Cook.
Oatmeal!! Mmmm....
I love the idea of couples showers! I'm not much for the owing and awing of traditional showers.
Q: Do you like Ricky Gervais? Who is your favorite comedian? I think Ricky has his moments. Hes funny on the UKs office. Favorite comedian? Probably Tosh
Q: What's your favorite grain? owww tough one....oats
I thought he was HILARIOUS at the GG!! Hollywood celebs should get a sense of humor and not take themselves so seriously!
Great looking recipe, too!!
I just bought some sort of frozen quinoa mix at TJ's. I haven't tried it yet, but that's pretty easy.
I don't like stand up comedy. I know, I know. I'm weird.
"It's going to be a night of partying and heavy drinking. Or as Charlie Sheen calls it: breakfast." - I too thought Ricky was hilarious. People need to lighten up!
I'm going to have to check out that recipe. I'm sure I can sub tofu or tempeh for the chicken. I love quinoa (prefer the red). I also love wheat berries - they have such great texture.
I am loving quinoa right now. It's got such a fun texture.
I like Ricky Gervais, but felt like his jokes at the Globes were pretty awkward. Funny, but awkward.
I LOVE Kathy Griffen. She's my favorite.
I love quinoa, but I've never made it before. My fav grain is oatmeal....I eat it every day!
I think Ricky Gervais is okay sometimes. I am not a huge fan of him. I think he can be offensive.
My favorite grains are couscous and quinoa! Yum!
I really love quinoa! Thanks for the recipe! I have a huge bag of it from Costco...need to use it!
I only saw snippets of the Golden Globes, but I think Ricky Gervais is hilarious!
Rice is my favorite too - although I need to cook up some quinoa!
My favorite comedian is Brian Regan- he's clean and hilarious!
Oh I LOVE quinoa! Definitely my favorite grain. I'm not a fan of rice- it's always too boring for me!
I love quinoa and Cous Cous :-)
Ive started pre-cooking using your techniques and its made life so much easier. My husband commutes 2.5 hours each way to Sydney every day so we dont eat at the same times and I need to have healthy food at reach when he gets home.
I work full time also (with a short commute) but fit in regular gym sessions weekday evenings and I am now training for half marathon. I fit so much into my week now because of you!
Mmm I would say mine is either brown rice or noodles- not as much pasta (though I'm Italian), but the noodles for Thai food. :)
Wait a sec- are pancakes at all considered a real grain? If so then OBVIOUSLY them!
Hmm, favorite grain ... I think I'd have to go with rice too! Brown rice to be exact. I always have a stash in the freezer already cooked although I love quinoa too!
Yummy! My favorite grain is probably brown rice but I did try Farro for the first time and I love it!
I have never tried quinoa but have always wanted to! Recipe looks great, and Im lovin your site :)
nice work on the quino (or however you spell it)...I've been meaning to try more dinners with this as part of it. Couscous is still my fav (the instant is just soo quick and tasty!) YAY for the shower!! Let me know if you need any help. holler.
Yummy. I love Quinoa and will try your recipe tonight. This week, I made a Quinoa Mac and Cheese dish - to die for. I think YOU would love it! http://cuceesprouts.com/2011/01/quinoa-mac-and-cheese-with-spinach/
I really liked Ricky Gervais. I think he did exactly what the award show peeps wanted him to do, regardless of what they say. I think they were hoping for "edgy." I mean this is the age of Lady Gaga - you have to push the envelope to get any kind of attention.
My favorite comedian...I'm IN LOVE with John Stewart. No lie. If he called to ask me to run away with him today, I would. : )
I love the idea of couples showers! I'm not much for the owing and awing of traditional showers.
