Queenie and the Bean Sprouts
2008-06-07 21:56:00 See Queenie’s sprouter. See Queenie’s sprouter grow delicious fresh sprouts. See Queenie happy and healthy. This is my sprouter. I purchased it for 19 dollars on Amazon. I had no idea at the time, how addicting this nice little appliance was going to be for me. Otherwise, I would have purchased 2 or 3 of them. This handy little gadget grows me three different types of sprouts, fresh in my kitchen in only 4 days. I love my sprouter almost as much as I love sprouts. Beneficial little things too. They are a famous health food. But they are also getting some good press as being disease fighters too. Sprouts contain plant compounds that can help protect us against diseases. Alfalfa sprouts have an amino acid in them that has shown to protect against pancreatic, colon and leukemia cancers. Plant estrogens increase bone formation and density and prevent osteoporosis. They are also helpful in controlling hot flashes, menopause, PMS and fibrocystic breasts tumors. Alfalfa...

Kind of hard to keep skipping around in circles while flipping through those cookbooks, but I did it nevertheless! :)I finally settled on a green beans and garlic recipe - not the traditional pan-asian one, but one with a bit more gravy - a bunch of chopped tomatoes thrown in, along with a batch of cannellini beans for more fiber goodness. A generous dash of white wine totally added a slurpy tingling aftertaste - much better than any vinaigrette could have.Beans and Beans with Garlic and TomatoesSkip as you stir, makes it taste ...

2007-10-31 22:40:00 brought by www.thequeerofallmedia.com Victoria Beckham is just your average mother, balancing work, family – and her hot soccer star husband. Talking on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM morning show Wednesday about her life as a Hollywood housewife, Beckham, 33, said of her and talked about her life as a Hollywood mom of three boys: Brooklyn, 8, Romeo, 5, and Cruz, 2. “I think they think everybody’s mommy is a Spice Girl,” she said when asked for her children’s opinion of their parents’ celebrity status. “I just had my hair dyed the other day and I got in the car and they looked at me and said, ‘Oh my goodness, it’s Posh Spice. She’s back.’ ” And, like all normal couples, Victoria and husband David Beckham have their major differences. “He’s very tidy, and I am not,” she says. How organized is he? “Even our ‘fridge is color coded,” she says. When it comes to cleaning, “...
Britney?s Assistant Spills the Beans While Britney Refuses to Promote Her A
2007-10-31 19:59:00 Britney, honey, if you're going to wear the hooker dress, at least have the common sense to slap on some make-up. Ugh, and I just realized that she looks like she's wearing a half-assed Ann Coulter costume. Well, a poor choice of wardrobe is the least of her problems right now, with Brit-Brit's assistant, Kalie Machado, spilling the beans to Us Weekly about her experiences with the pop star during her tumultuous break-up from Kevin Federline. "She wanted so badly to have the father of her babies. When Britney thought about Kevin not wanting her, she would bawl," Machado tells Us. "She would look at Sean and Jayden and say, 'Where's your daddy? I need help. Where's your daddy?'" Britney was so stuck on Kevin that she kept framed pictures of the two of them all throughout her Malibu house. But the topper is that she kept wedding dress hung up in her bedroom. How Great Expectations of her. The assistant's recommendation for Britney is that she "needs mental help." It's n...

2007-09-22 21:27:00 I'm not generally one to write reviews for chains, but after a string of positive experiences at one of my local CBTL's, this one's in order.We all know the menu at The Bean inside out, so I won't belabor the options here except to say this year's "seasonal" addition, the Pecan Praline - latte or ice blended - is definitely worth the price of admission... And by price, I mean, the calories it will cost you since they don't have a no-sugar-added option for this one.This corner Bean location at Beverly & Alta Vista is a bit smaller than average, but still manages to offer a full menu, wi-fi access, and some nice street side patio seating complete with fire pit for chilly evening yid-watching. That said, the crux of this review lies with the service. I've been in here plenty of times and have always been pleased, which, of itself, speaks volumes. Yesterday, I popped in for a quickie caffeine fix. The front gate seemed to be shut, so I walked around to the back to sneak in. (...

Cloudy day at The Bean, Chicago
2007-09-17 22:35:00 Our last day in Chicago, and it had to rain! still that didn't stop me, I wanted pictures of the Cloud Gate (famously known as The Bean) before heading back to Michigan, so my husband left me right there on the highway and I started running towards the bean (I'm a fast runner by the way!) I took at least 50 pictures from different angles (I love my Canon EOS!) but of course all what the sculpture could reflect was the darkness of the sky, but still I think many of the pictures I took came out pretty good. I took this picture as I was approaching the bean for first time in my life, impressive structure by the way, people must have thought I was completely insane walking with the camera stuck in my face and shooting pictures like crazy! I went back to the car running as well as it started to rain and I didn't want my camera to get wet. What an amazing reflection this sculpture gives to the park.Now, I'm offering this painting with a Buy It Now option of $1,150.00 or you can make m...

Real Estate Investing Case Study: “BPO Bob” Spills the Beans for Short
2007-08-09 05:43:00 If you’ve spent any quality time carousing with us in the Flipping Homes Community as of late, then you may recall resident short sale guy Shaun McCloskey recently posting his intentions to conduct a private phone interview with an as-yet-unnamed, full-time BPO agent. He also invited you to submit your own questions for the interview – anything you might want to ask a BPO agent if you had him under your spotlight, truth serum in hand. For investors who do preforeclosure/short sale deals, the BPO valuation is probably the single most important aspect in determining whether or not your offer to the bank will be approved. Imagine the edge you’d have over other short sale investors if you really understood BPOs, inside out. So I said to Shaun… “Sounds like a phenomenal idea…make it so.” And so he did. Announcing… Now while most of our case studies focus on specific real estate deals, this one digs deep into the mind of a tru...

Price Attack Pt.2: Cadillac spills the beans on 2008 CTS official pricing
2007-07-23 01:34:00 You gotta hand it to those who legally acquire information as important as this and post it up. A member over at Cheers and Gears, the forum that brought us shots of the Dodge Challenger and a little tale along with it, posted up the official pricing for Cadillac's 3-Series fighter, the CTS. Scanning through the price list, the standard CTS with the 263hp 3.6L VVT V6 and a manual transmission will start at $32,245. Upgrade to the automatic on the base model for $1300 more. If you want auto standard, step up to the 304hp 3.6L VVT DI V6 for $34,995, which is not really a big premium to pay for a 300hp RWD sedan. Want to add a manual tranny onto your near-perfect family-friendly sports car? It'll set you back $1300 too. An AWD option, available on both trims, is a $1900 premium.Not perfect enough?

Click on image to enlarge Doctors have concluded that if you find the man in the coffee beans in 3 seconds, your right half of your brain is better developed than most people. If you find the man between 3 seconds and 1 minute, your right half of the brain is developed normally. If you find the man between 1 minute and 3 minutes, then the right half of your brain is functioning slowly and you need to eat more protein. If you have not found the man after 3 minutes, the advice is to look for more of this type of exercise to make that part of the brain stronger!!! And, yes, the man is really there!!!

Radical Plant Politics: Listen to the Beans

Promising documentation of collaborations between plants, dancers, and synthesizers in the 70s, a plant alerting its owner of underwatering via telephone, plants responsive to touch, and newsreporting by the Plant Media Network -- Psychobotany will no doubt challenge our assumptions about...um, plants, their intelligence, their moods, their place in the food chain, and art. Rumour has it that corn is extremely pissed at the industrial food sector, and that a corn & soybean political bloc against the hegemony of monoculture has been formed in Brazil and Argentina, with talks underway with representatives of squash.

The Pork and The Beans
2007-03-16 08:15:00 Baked Beans. My favourite accompaniment to Baked Potatoes, Egg and Chips, Fish Fingers or a Fat-Saturated Fry-Up. I love the sweet, tomato-y sauce and the way that they taste just as good straight out of the can, standing next to the sink at midnight.And of course, I particularly revelled in the Baked Bean Renaissance of 1992, when the humble saucy bean was placed on top of a pizza. I have always been advocate of baked beans with pizza anyway, so this was an affirmation of my slightly odd tastes.However, I knew that whilst tinned beans are great, homemade beans must be greater still so I set to work on finding a recipe that could put their canned cousins to shame.The first thing I considered was what bean to use. The traditional British Baked Bean is made with Haricot (Navy) Beans, which is a small, firm white bean with a slightly mealy texture. I didn?t have Haricot Beans in the cupboard so opted for a larger bean, the Cannellini bean which is creamier, although Butter Beans would ...

Britney Spears? - Ex Lover Spills the Beans on Their Relationship

The model-actor sat down with the News Of The World for this lovely look into their relationship: - “She loves sex and is incredibly adventurous. She was totally happy when we were locked in each other’s arms. But once the sex stopped Britney was like a little girl lost, unable to cope. - “She would lie like a limp rag doll in my arms and and say, ‘Why can’t everyone leave me alone?’ and, ‘What have I done to deserve this?’” - “By the time I met Britney she was burnt out. She knew she had been drinking and partying as a way to try to banish the bad stuff from her life. Far from the trashy drunk, I saw a very shy, sweet girl who was just desperately sad about what had happened with her marriage. - “Yes she enjoyed Jack Daniel’s but she was trying not to get in the state...

Home Alone [the Bean Family version]
2006-08-30 00:51:02 Our friends from Arizona came to visit this weekend. Since they moved to Arizona, over seven years ago, they have only been able to come back a handful of times. So we decided to go out and have a few beers with them on Saturday night [and I mean beer in the figurative sense because I don’t drink beer and Lee doesn’t drink at all]. Since we were planning on going out we needed to get a babysitter. We have a girl that sometimes babysits for us sometimes, but she was dating one of Lee’s friends…and now they aren’t. She called us and told us she’d still babysit for us though. And, honestly, when you have five kids, it’s hard to find a good babysitter. So I told Lee to call her. But then we got to thinking…Justis is 14. He really is responsible enough to babysit. And Keaton is 12. He’s not really old enough to babysit on his own, but he could be a good helper to Justis. So I called the boys in for a family meeting. I said, “Do ...
