In French, "legume" refers to any vegetable.

Well the French can kiss my petite derriere legumes are beans.

Peanuts are okay (for legumes, that is) but if you want a really great nut, cashews are the way to go.

I'm nuts for cashews.

I never cared much for cashews. When I was little, I thought they were called "cat shoes".

Your loss, Rocky. But if we're talking nuts Cashews are the best.

You can have mine.

Speaking of nuts, did anyone catch Karl Rove's little rant on Election Night? Talk about cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!

Does anyone ever go on the Song Meanings website? They actually do serious analysis of a song called "Cuckoo for Caca." I'm not making this up!

Right before I visited this thread I was watching this groovy video of Steve Hackett teaching Genesis's "Cuckoo Cocoon" to Francis Dunnery of It Bites and Brett Kull of echolyn while backstage at a recent charity event.

"Cuckoo Coccoon" is from the album "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway," which was the last Genesis album with the five-piece Peter Gabriel-led lineup. Gabriel went on to a successful solo career, albeit one with such cute indulgences as giving his first three albums the same title, "Peter Gabriel."

As a child, I thought Little Anthony and the Imperials' song "Shimmy, Shimmy Ko Ko Bop" was "Shimmy, Shimmy Cocoa Puffs". Actually, I was an adult before I found out that it wasn't.

*Has vision of individual Cocoa Puffs with arms, legs, and faces, all of them dancing*

Actually, the first four solo albums were all named "Peter Gabriel", though the fourth was renamed "Security" when released in the U.S.

Peter Gabriel II was conceived as part of a trilogy with Robert Fripp's Exposure and Daryl Hall's Sacred Songs.

I listened to "Sacred Songs" with an open mind. It sent me running for my copy of "Private Eyes." IMO, Hall's a great pop craftsman, but not an art rocker.

Private eyes. They're watching you. They see your every move.

In my younger days, I could eat as many as a dozen strips of bacon at a time. But for the last couple of decades, my limit at breakfast/brunch has steadily dwindled to two strips at the very most.

In my younger days, I was skinny as a beanpole. Now I am not. See? No good deed goes unpunished.



I even think that freaky-looking Morningstar Farms™ faux bacon is delicious. Their pretend sausage is also good.

But I don't eat Tofurky™. A person has to draw the line somewhere, by damn!

oh my .... anything Morningstar Farms RIPS my stomach to shreds ... cramps GALORE!

I can't eat any sort of faux meat vegetarian item.

Vegetarian products in a meat disguise are PB's Kryptonite.

Ugh. Soy allergy, huh?

PB, I will be happy to fix you the genuine article bacon-wise. We are very accommodating here at chez_cleome's Brunch Palace.

Or you could just have a veggie scramble with actual veggies in it. I do those, too.

mmmm bacon! I really enjoy the thick canadian bacon ...

actual vegetables arent really a problem for me.(maybe if I eat a ton of corn. but a ton of edamame is cool with el gut de Power)

just that crazy suped up soy stuff.

ok, if you fry up some bacon I will mix up some cocktails!

I don't eat beef or pork. More than anything else, I just don't like them. Bacon is the hardest to avoid because it's put in foods (like vegetables) that you wouldn't expect.

On the other hand, I quite like the Morningstar Farms facon. I'm also very fond of Quorn.

Morningstar Farms Bacon is just about the only one of their products I don't care for. Their Mushroom Lover's Burger is to die for.

Lucifer is the Morningstar. I wonder if Morningstar Farms considered that when they choose their name.

The German word for "Morningstar" is "Morgenstern". I always did wonder about Rhoda.

In Greek, the morning star was known as Phosphorus. The evening star was known as Hesperus.

Of course, both of them were manifestations of the planet Venus.
