Ah, to return to the days of being a teenager….

Yes, sleeping late on the weekends. That was always nice. The funny part about this though was that it was in the middle of the afternoon. So after getting up at 10 or 11, who has the gall to fall asleep on the couch?

Yup, Elly. Great role model she turned out to be for Ken and George….sigh

We had a really simple lunch today, instant Ramen really. We did add something to make it something a little more than a lunch of MSG. And since I didn’t actually take pictures of last weeks final product, which I’ll post about here in a bit, I have decided to use this for this week’s GYO post.

We’ve been growing Pak Choi and it’s been doing really well. In fact, I probably planted a little too much of it. But that means we’ve been eating a lot of it too which isn’t a bad thing. Last week we had this version:

Today, we grabbed some Pak Choi from the garden:

If you notice some holes in the Pak Choi, that would because we are not using any pesticide nor fertilizer on the garden. I may use them next year, but I wanted to see how we did this year. Clearly we need to thoroughly rinse the the Pak Choi prior to using for anything that goes in my mouth. Then you chop them all up:

Actually, prior to chopping them up, we throw some eggs into boiling water to get the soft boiled eggs going. We also follow the instructions for the Maruzen Ramen, which basically consists of boiling the noodles for several minutes, adding the soup mix to the noodles. For five people, we actually use only 4 packets of ramen.

Add a teaspoon of vegetable oil in a wok and stir fry the pak choy until it’s soft. Pour the ramen into a soup bowl. We actually have “ramen bowls” which we use, but any soup bowl should do. Add the soft boiled egg and the pak choi, and VOILA:

Probably the hardest part about the above is getting the soft boiled egg just right. Everything else is dead simple. And makes it a completely different dish from plain old instant ramen. And it takes just a few minutes to make.

They didn’t flip flop, they just hid it. This page doesn’t indicate anything about Ubuntu when you click on of the systems except for the $349 one. Hence, if you click on the Mini 10v on that page, you do not have the option to swap out windows for Ubuntu. Hence I thought that is was no longer an option.

I’m amazed. A few weeks ago I was looking at getting a netbook from Dell, largely because we get an employee discount. Not much of a discount, but a discount. So I login again today since my daughter wants to buy one. One with Ubuntu on it, not Windows. Her choice, not mine — though if you know me, you’d know Ubuntu would be my choice as well.
