Here is the $30 option

just bought a small wok in bed bath and beyond. Couldn't find one anywhere besides Walmart, and it had a no stick coating that I didn't want.I'm waiting to get my car fixed and then picking up mom and dad from his doctors appointment and going home, and tomorrow I have to get allergy testing, which is awful, and when I get home from that I'm planting myself firmly at my house for about 10 days straight. Anybody who wants me to do anything that requires leaving it will have to fill out a form and take a number.

Arks, it just occurred to me that next, you need a rice cooker. ;-)

28068. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 12:22:16 AM

already got one of those, a really nice little rice cooker / vegetable steamer that I've already used and it works fantastic! got it right after y'all left.

28069. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 1:24:53 AM

well when I got home this wok is almost as big as the other one. Sigh. I have absolutely no sense of proportion.

28070. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 7:48:20 PM

fun times. Sitting in the room at the allergist's with 68 pricks on my back and 15 minutes before I can scratch myself to death.

28071. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 7:48:45 PM

2 minutes since they did it and I feel if I don't scratch I'm going to die.

28072. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 7:51:28 PM

okay. I really truly believe I'm highly allergic to all 68 things. I do not see why we need 15 minutes to find out.

28073. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 7:53:19 PM

I brought stan in as a scratch prevention measure.

28074. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 7:56:11 PM

I've got to figure out how to coerce stan into not telling if I scratch.

28075. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 8:01:46 PM

another minute or two. Maybe I'll make it without scratching.

28076. arkymalarky - 7/3/2014 8:07:35 PM

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh.......

Wow. I hope it helps, knowing we've got your back. Your needle story has got me in stitches. Etc. (I'll get my coat)

28078. judithathome - 7/4/2014 5:18:33 PM

Oh shoot! I thought you'd be here all week! :-)

28079. arkymalarky - 7/4/2014 7:44:27 PM

Ha! I started that to distract myself. Games weren't going to cut it. After two minutes I called Stan from the waiting room. He looked at his phone and droned on about getting his truck doors fixed and I started posting again because he was worse than useless. He said he was trying to distract me by just talking, but if I have tuned him out for over 30 years what made him think I'd be engaged at a time like that? I told the nurse that I was wishing for a Freddie Kruger nightmare by the time the 15 minutes was up. There Freddie...no, a little higher up and to the left.

28080. arkymalarky - 7/4/2014 8:20:01 PM

and seriously, no one came in and made a joke about me saying I had 68 pricks on my back?

28081. judithathome - 7/5/2014 1:15:19 AM

:-)

28082. Ms. No - 7/7/2014 1:57:48 PM

That's what I was wondering! It was my first inclination, but I wasn't here.

Ooh, I just noticed that typing a Mote post on my phone has no text-wrap. Wonder what that'll look like.

Currently in Connecticut where all is green and lovely.

28083. iiibbb - 7/7/2014 6:23:05 PM

Arky... it didn't sound out of the ordinary.

28084. arkymalarky - 7/7/2014 7:43:56 PM

It just occured to me reading Alistair's puns. one of those things that strikes you funny after the fact of being miserable. interestingly, I had that testing done in the same location I had my hysterectomy 9 years ago. And I still laugh about that incident, and was trying to figure out where my room was, which I had decided I could survive jumping from if the building was on fire. That's when Mose had come to see me and left out the fire exit and set off the fire alarm. About 4 hours after my surgery.

Connecticut! A friend is getting married in VT in August. I so wish I could go.
