Phos's Bad Knee Day
The knee is acting up again and no amount of painkiller seems to be working, even a couple of Motrin boilermakers didn’t seem to have much of an affect. Anyway, I am attempting to rest the joint as much as possible, between answering the phone and seeing what
I recently got Photoshop CS2 and have been puttering a bit - took some shots out in the yard and tried some different settings. The software is complex, so with me it is like a rhino trying to tie a shoe lace, if rhinos actually had shoes to tie.
Had a lovely lunch. As much as I love to cook sometimes I just need to go back to my roots. When I was young, right up until I was 11 years old hotdogs were a mainstay. They were safe food and never tasted like crap, unlike some of mom’s dishes. Her “Salmon Loaf” leaps immediately to mind. So I boiled up some franks. The package promised they were beef, but as we all know the sausage makers consider everything from asshole to moo beef, so you’re on your own. I had picked up this pack for my Chinese New Years party. I almost always have some hotdogs handy at these things because you never know when someone’s kid thinks anything out of a wok is gross. I did bow to the occasion and referred to them as “Dragon Tails” vice hotdogs. A little cheddar, some brown spicy mustard and I am good to go.

I like to pan roast hotdogs and cover them with cheese, relish and horseradish mustard.
Take care of that knee bud.
hey Phos TC of that knee mate.
Yukon And Asutrella look gorgeous...so well-poised awww.
I love hot-dogs but we dun get much of a variety in Aus. Aussies r great pie-eaters u see :)
Keshi.
hammer:The trick is to get high quality dogs int first place, though it is ironic using high quality and hotdog in the same breath.
I am thinking about sawing everything from the knee down off once I clean the rust off my band saw. Wouldn't want an infection, you know.
Keshi: I've been known to dine on a bit of pie myself, but being that this a is a family blog we won't get into details on that, so to pseak. The reason Aussies don't eat hotdogs is because they are probably kanga-dogs. While a little roast of 'roo is probably ok once-in-awhile they are probably a might on the tough side for hotdog filler.
thanks for stopping by
when I was a kid, I would cut hotdogs into bits, stick in a toothpick and dip it in mustard, mmmmm
I love the pics! I wish I had photoshop. As for the sore knee, why not wash the painkillers back with a bottle of vodka. Should ease the pain.
tk:turning a hotdog into a party, what a great idea!
Cherry!: Good idea. The pain will still be there but I won't care anymore - works for me!!
Hey, this is my first visit! Gorgeous dogs! I think you are doing very well with your big rhino feet...those clouds look cool!! And that bird!!! It's awesome!!
Dunno about hotdogs though....
I hope your knee gets better quick. Pain is no fun at all.
Rhinos actually don't have shoes (except those of the campers they killed and ate). But I suppose you can teach it to tie your shoes.
I can see a dog in the two first sky-pix ... Can you??
Hope your knee gets better.
mhh I like fried hot dogs. cute puppie pics. My new camera is to be delivered tomorrow I can't wait
KB: Thanks for stopping by! Glad you enjoyed it. You are right about the hotdogs, you buys yer ticket and takes yer chances…
LL: Thanks LL. On the bright side I get to use a cane, always wanted to look stylish…
Dan: Good point, but I do have shoes made of Rhino. Part of Martha Stewarts “Endangered Collection”. I also have a coat made out of the hide of her ex-stock broker.
Kirsten: Why yes I do. Thanks for the good wishes!!
DAK: I find boiling them takes away some of the gamey hoof-steak taste. Cool – what kind of camera did you get? I will be looking forward to lots of great photos!!
**kanga-dogs
LOL! ok I seriously cant believe Aussies eat roos...I dun like it cos a roo is a national symbol here and also cos its kinda a very innocent animal.
Keshi.
keshi: Cows are innocent too - what do you think is in that hotdog - how do you think it got there? Actually there is a big market for 'roo meat as well as Emu. I haven't had Emu, but I have had Ostrich - it has a beef like quality about it.
My best friends mom always boiled hotdaogs. It's so funny I haven't had one like that in so long!! But they have a paticular consistancy to them unattainable through grilling and frying. have to buy me a pack soon!
You should have made Year-of-the-Pigs in a Blanket.
SL: That would have been great!!
