Thursday Tuna Day



Page Turner here.

Tomorrow is Thursday Tuna Day! Okay, not for America, but for me. Why, you might wonder? Well, you see, I'm on this diet that allows you to have all the fats and proteins you want (i.e, meat, cheese, vegetables, fruits, eggs,) but no carbs. (i.e., bread, oatmeal, pasta, chocolate, toast, milk, pizza, muffins, sugar, happiness...) Combined with thirty minutes of exercise a day, it works. Anyway, I can have homemade egg, chicken, or tuna salad, but tuna has a ton of mercury in it, so I can only eat it once a week. (I could eat it more, but I'm not a big fan of food poisoning.) Anyway, sometimes I just have to imagine exactly what I'd eat if I went off. So here is the "Official Page Turner Food Blog of June." Here goes!
Okay, so for breakfast I'd have those warm rolls with sausage links in them, and baked French toast. Yes, its baked. And yes its good. Okay, for lunch, I'd have a frozen pizza off the grill (the best) with chocolate milk. And for dinner, a bacon cheese burger, an order of fries, and a vanilla milkshake from Steak and Shake. So now you contain the unneeded and unwanted day menu of Page Turner and are none the wiser. But of course, a food blog wouldn't be complete without a few more items...
Food Trivia! Did you know that the Baby Ruth Bar was not named after the baseball player but after President Grover Cleveland's daughter, Ruth. Eggplants are berries. People in Japan eat crackers filled with...wasps. People in Cambodia eat spiders, people in Japan eat the potentially fatal puffer fish, and flavors of potato chips range from octopus, chicken feet, cinnamon bun, grilled cheese, blueberry, ghost peppers (used in pepper spray) and my favorite: "Cajun Squirrel." Yup. Look it up.on the Oh My Disney blog, the writers turned Disney Songs turned into Food Songs: "Let it go, let it go Can’t share my plate anymore My taco, my taco Crispy shells are what I adore! I don’t care What you’re going to say Pour the hot sauce on, The spice never bothered me anyway!" They’re the circles of life, And they move us all, Through eclairs and glazed, Cream filled or fruit, Till we make our choice In the pastry display They’re the circles The circles of life! (From Oh My Disney Blog; Let it Go, Circle of Life)


Well, that about wraps it up for the food blog. God gave us a body to use, and we are to use it to honor him. Keeping it in good physical shape helps us to be ready for whatever God has planned for us. So go, walk a few miles, and rest assured that dark chocolate is good for you!

Calling All Lego Lovers!

     Hi, Page Turner here. It's been a while. I suppose I just haven't had a lot to write about. :) There is, however, something important to write about today.      If you're a fan of Lego, science fiction, or just enjoy an awesome plane model, I have some really cool news. Take a look: This elegant Lego design is called the The U.S.S. Martin . It is a Lego set featuring two large engines in the rear (see figure 2) made from blue Lego parts.      Within this carrier lies hidden guns for defense when the crew is confronted from surly space pirates or other threats.      In the front (see figure 1) lies bulbous cockpit that, in emergency situations, transforms into an eject-able escape pod. The rear of the cargo carrier unfolds to form a ramp, where the happy crew is loading for flight.        The U.S.S. Martin  is covered with sleek maroon and grey paneling and dotted with vents for heat distr...

An Ode to My iPod: Part 2

iPod, you were in your plastic baggy I stared at you as I cleaned the kitchen How broken you were! The rice could not fix you, it seemed A friend suggested I get a new one Replace you, dear iPod? I had no other choice! You've been with me through a lot, dear iPod Through my first couple basketball games Through that terrible thunderstorm I listened to you during my sad times I played you when I was happy Your music reminded me of good memories Why, wonderful iPod, why did I let you get wet? It was such an innocent thunderstorm I held you as I listened to your song But was it for the last time? I listened to you as we drove long miles Your ability to store music astounds me So many memories are in those songs! My little iPod, you played as we grouted the porch You were beside me in the late nights when I couldn't sleep You lie on my pillow, supplying me with audio as I draw Dear little iPod, your music kept me running I guess I shall have to say good-bye,...

Back Again

                Hi, all! Page Turner here! I hope that everyone is having a great summer! One of the things that I am really excited about this summer is reading. With school and everything else going on, I haven't made time to read a book in a really, really long while. I feel like God gave us books, and that reading the right books can be a blessing in our lives. They can inspire us to be creative, teach us lessons, inspire us to love one another, and move our hearts to both a greater understanding and a greater love for our Savior. I feel like a few hours with a good book are a great use of time--and I plan to be doing just that this summer!       Over the next few months, I really hope to revisit some old books as well as some new ones. I know I can't read all of them, but I also hope to at least take a thoughtful review of some books that I feel God has used to impact my life. That's why I've made a non-definitive list of 15 F...
