Out of reach

Still waiting for my net connection to be re-established... in the meantime I have re-instated a few cd's to the
collection, I am getting there, should soon be back to my 4k odd mp3's
Winamp and I have been in a party mood since yesterday when my daughter was here. Even did some shadow dancing, had Myoo very puzzled with my wild gyrations... Westlife - What I want is what I got is playing as I type, not quite my sentiments but quite a beat... Busy compiling a playlist for Guy Fawkes as well... should be blast if we have good weather. Trying to think of what lyrics to put up tonight, as I am off line I am clueless as to what I have put up already... must backup the blog sometime as well. Sash! - La Primavera is playing now... it realy gives me itchy feet...
Still thinking of Hara Miharu a lot, can't seem to stop... The japanese name generator gave me that name, maybe I should use that to disguise persons names instead of using M or I or L... now the PC is playing a song that suits the theme 100%, Out of reach by Gabrielle, will use them lyrics methinks...

Today we have a simple recipe again, made it for me and Yoshikuni Ayumi, my daughter;
Pipes a la Tamate
Ingredients:
+- 500 - 800g mince
1 large onion
1 can onion/tomato mix
1 can tomato paste
Italian herbs
Spices you like
Last left over tomato sauce in a bottle or two.
Pasta - Pipes or any other type that goes well with a saucy bolognaise type mince.
Preperation:
Prepare pasta in a pasta pot of around 3L, using some oil and a teaspoon of salt... drain, put into a bowl and sprinkle with some olive oil when al dente.
Sauce preperation:
Chop onions and saute in a 2.5L saucepan using some olive oil, add mince and brown adding spices of your choice, I used Steak and Chop and some crushed Coriander seeds.
When meat is brown add the tomato paste, tomato/onion mix, using some water to get the last of the can's contents as well. You can also add the tomato sauce (ketchup) dregs using about a cup of water to swish the last bit out as well. Add some sugar to cut the tartness of the tomato if needed.Let the mixture simmer for 15 min. after adding the italian herbs. Serve over pasta with a tossed salad on the side.
Now on to the lyrics.
Out of reach - Gabrielle
Knew the signs
Wasn't right
I was stupid for a while
Swept away by you
And now I feel like a fool
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be

Catch myself
From despair
I could drown
If I stay here
Keeping busy everyday
I know I will be OK

But I was
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?

Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be

So much hurt,
So much pain
Takes a while
To regain
What is lost inside
And I hope that in time,
You'll be out of my mind
And I'll be over you

But now
I'm So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?

Out of reach,
So far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be

Out of reach,
So far
You never gave your heart
In my reach,
I can see
There's a life out there
For me
"Happiness is the china shop; love is the bull." H. L. Mencken
