Cooking Brown Rice

This task takes a long time to me. Being that I make my own rules I don't like to measure anything, so I eyeball my rice to water ratio. However the boiling process seems to be longer than my bowel movements after eating chitterlings on Thanksgiving. I promise it took me 6 hours to cook 3 servings of brown rice. I added Olive Oil, and Kosher Salt for taste and boiled. While the rice was boiling I was able to clean the entire hotel room eliminating work for house keeping, cook another meal for the next day and balance my check book... from 2002. The extended cooking of brown rice makes me wonder, what in the hell do they do to the white rice which makes it cook so fast. I'm a woman that loves to cook but cooking brown rice makes me want to rethink this whole woman thing and just go live in the Amazon Rain Forrest with those frogs that change colors (I can't remember their name). Anyway... I just wanted to rant a little bit about how brown rice will cause you to miss a few birthdays waiting for it to cook to perfection. I will say though, once it was done, it was nice and fluffy with excellent flavor. I made Tuna with Cilantro and Lime to go with. A po man's meal with a twist. I love this dish. I would post the gredients with measurements but as I stated... I make my own rules. You should try it some time.
